THE BEN TV DIPLOMATIC AWARDS 2010

BEN TELEVISION

25 ASHLEY ROAD

TOTTENHAM

LONDON, N17 9LJ

Monday 6^th December 2010

The Ben TV Diplomatic Awards recognises the international and continental achievements made over the past year by our continent at home and in the Diaspora within the diplomatic community. Playing host to the first sub-Saharan World Cup, defusing political and regional tensions, and continuing the fight for awareness of our causes, our high commissions and embassies have been pivotal to the casting off the dark shadows that have engulfed Mother Africa. For all this and more, as the first black ethnic station broadcasting in Europe, we give them a night that we know will serve their reputation for years to come.

We cannot leave out the achievements made through the Caribbean and Asia. Much investment has been provided from these regions into Africa, to our continuous development. Alongside their own setbacks, the Caribbean and Asia have united their Diasporas and home-bases to build representative and efficient embassies which represent their own development.

In these circumstances, Ben TV will be awarding members of the diplomatic community from Africa, the Caribbean and Pacific in recognition of the contribution awards in the following categories:

· Diaspora growth, development and involvement

· Good customer service at the High commission/embassy

· Promoting country’s image abroad

· Country’s Human Development

Other winners are:

AFRICA CATEGORY- Nigeria, Uganda, Kenya, Morocco, Namibia, Lesotho, Gambia, Tanzania Equatorial Guinea, South Africa, Ghana, Mozambique, Swaziland

CARIBBEAN/ASIA/PASIFIC CATEGORY: India, Fiji, New Zealand ,Australia, Trinidad and Tobago, St. Lucia, Jamaica, St Kitts, Barbados
