LUSAKA Hombre Adidas Ultra Boost ATR Mid Granate España , July 3 (Xinhua) -- A Zambian boxer who last week grabbed the Africa Boxing Union (ABU) welterweight belt said he was now gunning for the World Boxing Council (WBC) title, the Zambia Daily Mail reported on Wednesday.


Charles Manyuchi knocked out Patrice Toke of Burkina Faso last Friday in the fifth round of a 12-round bout to grab the African title.


While saying he would work hard to defend the African title on September 28 against South Africa's Gibisele Tshabalala, the boxer said his target was to fight for the WBC title.


"Winning the title is difficult and so is defending it but let me assure you that I will not give up the title that easily as I want to win the WBC title," he was quoted as saying by the paper.


Chris Malunga, the boxer's manager said winning the ABU title was a gateway for the WBC title, adding that the boxer's victory had put Zambia back on the world map.


"Fighting for the WBC title is the ultimate goal for every boxer and this is why we are happy that we reclaimed this ABU title that was painfully gotten away from us in Morocco Hombre Adidas Ultra Boost Clima Carbon Orchid Tint España ," he said.



DHAKA, Feb. 26 (Xinhua) -- Bangladesh is recognized globally for making remarkable progress in reducing poverty and advancing human development, said Annette Dixon, World Bank Vice President for the South Asia Region, on Thursday.


"Other countries can learn from Bangladesh's rich development experience," said Dixon as she concluded her first visit to Bangladesh since assuming her position in December 2014.


Dixon has pledged strong support for the people of Bangladesh to achieve the goal of becoming a middle-income country by the end of this decade.


"The World Bank remains committed to working with Bangladesh to reduce poverty and bring prosperity to all Bangladeshis. The World Bank has already approved more than 1 billion U.S. dollars in new financing this fiscal year to improve primary education Hombre Gris Two Real Teal Adidas Ultra Boost Clima España , child nutrition, and resilience to natural disasters. We are on track to deliver a total of nearly 2 billion U.S. dollars by the end of June," she added.


Dixon met senior government officials and discussed how World Bank support can be best aligned with the country's priorities. She also met civil society and private sector leaders and development partners. Dixon also visited the Export Processing Zone in Chittagong and a government health facility in Dhaka.


"The World Bank is keen to support Bangladesh in achieving its vision of becoming a middle-income country. For this to happen, Bangladesh needs to do more to narrow the power and transportation gaps, manage urbanization, reduce climate change impacts Adidas Ultra Boost Clima Hombre Blancas Clear Marrones España , and also improve the business environment, public service delivery and governance. Going forward, the World Bank will help Bangladesh to clear bottlenecks that impede faster growth and to connect to regional and global markets," Dixon was also quoted as saying in a statement of the bank Thursday.


The World Bank is the largest development partner of Bangladesh, committing more than 19 billion U.S. dollars in interest-free IDA credits to advance Bangladesh's development priorities since the country's independence, it said.


According to the statement Hombre Adidas Ultra Boost Laceless Triple Negras España , the current IDA portfolio consists of 32 projects, with a total commitment of 7.5 billion U.S. dollars.


The World Bank Group's private sector arm, the International Finance Corporation (IFC) has a portfolio 35 projects with investment commitments of 668 million U.S. dollars, it said.


The World Bank Group's arm for promoting foreign direct investment, the Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency (MIGA), has a portfolio of one active project with a total guarantee amount of 251 million U.S. dollars.

Born on 26 October 1939 in Shanghai into a Jewish family Hombre Adidas Ultra Boost 3.0 Mystery Gris España , Sonja Muhlberger is what she would call an "ex-Shanghailander."


To escape Nazi persecution during the Second World War (1939-45), Jews from Germany and Austria fled overseas. During that time, Japanese-occupied Shanghai was the last safe haven for many, since they didn't require visas to get there.


Muhlberger's parents, who were expecting her at the time, were among the many Jewish refugees who arrived at Shanghai's port for a chance at a new life. After the war Hombre Adidas Ultra Boost 3.0 Night Cargo España , most people went to the US, Canada or Australia, and some returned to Europe. Only about 500 to 600 chose to return to Germany.


At her home in a quiet neighborhood in Koepenick, in the southeast of Berlin, Muhlberger showed the Global Times an album filled with pictures of her in China, and also shared her life story as a Shanghai-born Jewish refugee. It's clear from the photos of old Shanghai streets that China makes up an important part of her life.


The ex-Shanghailanders


During their occupation of Shanghai Adidas Ultra Boost 3.0 MultiColor Hombre España , Japanese forces made the Jewish refugees live in the poorest area of the city, which would come to be known as the "Shanghai Ghetto."


Life there was difficult, but it made her and others stronger. "I would like to say that in the 1940s, those people lived in that place peacefully and in harmony with all those who were around us," she said. "I think it's meaningful."


"Sometimes I like to cook in the Chinese way. And then when I visited Shanghai, I felt at home Hombre Negras Plata Adidas Ultra Boost 3.0 LTD España ," she said.


In 1998, she was invited by a Chinese artist back to Shanghai to make a documentary, and was able to visit a couple more times after that.


Over the years, Muhlberger has received letters and e-mails from many "ex-Shanghailanders" and their families.


"People count their family members who were born after that," she said. "For me, I have two children and four grandchildren. You have to count how many people are on the way because we could survive."


Muhlberger and many other "ex-Shanghailanders" want to make sure that their history continue.
