Give me an example that you're proud of in the past year that you funded or something that's been completed.

I could go on and on, but let's give a couple of examples.
4:58
We did a water project on a PPP basis, a public-private partnership in Kigali in Rwanda, which is up and running and doing quite well.
5:08
That provides potable water to half a million people in Kigali.

So it's a significant investment.

When we were working with the developer, there were a number of features that included elevating the control centers, using submarine cabling, and in both cases, to ensure that during the flooding, both would be able to continue operation and provide potable water to Kigali.
5:38
And indeed, there have been floods, and they've been able to deliver.
