WHAT A THRILL! 2AFRIKA, INC. WON!

“In this ‘electronic age’ with so many very smart, talented people able to communicate to a broader audience, winning South African Tourism’s Journey of Discovery Tour Operator Initiative, feels like winning an ‘Academy Award’!” said Founder & President Kenneth R. Hieber.

"I am well aware that we submitted our proposal alongside some wonderfully talented and highly qualified travel professionals," he said, "and I feel honored that South African Tourism has acknowledged my company for its proposal."

Being South African by nativity, Hieber, now a naturalized American citizen still acknowledges that his heart remains in Africa and more definitively, South Africa.

The portal for the 2AFRIKA, INC.’s submission was Hieber’s recently introduced ANOTHER COUNTRY THROUGH MY EYES, a telecast devoted to introducing his homeland to travelers worldwide.

"Thank you sincerely to the panel of judges," he added, "for recognizing the potential of 2AFRIKA, INC. and ANOTHER COUNTRY THROUGH MY EYES, and for selecting us as one of your eight winners. You can rest assured that we will do you proud and that we will give the traveling public our very best and most personal attention at all times."

Hieber plans to launch his company’s 'initiative' in specific phases starting Monday July 12^th, 2010.
