Dear Ellie Young

Thank you for this information.

Aside, the parameter used for your calculation which is the no of eligible applicants from Africa. I am of the opinion that your parameter only window dress the effect of the selection to show that the selection is fair to Africa.

However, if you used "Total Number of Scholarships awarded against the number of African selected" you will noticed that we only have 3%. Though, we may not have the voice to push through our points, but the fact remains the selection is just unfair to the world second largest continent. http://www.africapedia.com/-SIZE-OF-AFRICA-COMPARED-TO-OTHER-CONTINENTS.

Though, you mentioned that "Geography regions are "not" the emphasis of the program'. In my opinion, this is the missing link in the organisation of the event year in year out. No wonder, some continents are fast developing while others are struggling.

Let's take a clue...
