00:00 [MUSIC PLAYING]

00:26 Mr. President, as a nation, we are a startup.

00:30 We have a startup mindset.

00:33 What are some of the things that you have learned to prioritize,

00:38 especially that there are a lot of decisions to be made?

00:42 There are things that need to happen as soon as possible.

00:46 And in that, what do you think in that process

00:50 is an advice you could give to the youth

00:52 with an entrepreneurial mindset?

00:55 I think the question you asked combines a number of things.

00:58 One is about everybody's responsibility, including mine.

01:06 I think it is past time for me to aspire to be an entrepreneur.

01:19 [LAUGHTER]

01:22 I have-- but again, being an entrepreneur

01:30 is an issue of mindset.

01:34 I'm trying to find ways of being one, even at the wrong time,

01:39 but building on my other responsibility.

01:43 I'm now in politics.

01:44 [LAUGHTER]

01:47 So I have tried to make it a politics of entrepreneurship.

01:55 [LAUGHTER]

01:56 [APPLAUSE]

02:00 Meaning that for those ideas I may have,

02:09 I try to find ways of channeling those ideas through politics,

02:16 to reach the young people, many of whom

02:21 are here, doing different things.

02:26 And really use politics also to create that environment where

02:35 aspiring entrepreneurs can find that environment where

02:41 they are enabled to do a number of things.

02:44 So for the young people, the advice is, as we grow up,

02:55 we come to understand every year, understand better

03:06 the world we are in as we find it.

03:11 But there is also the world every person

03:15 would want it to be, starting with himself,

03:21 the people around them, and family, friends,

03:26 and the society as a whole.

03:27 So for young people, therefore, as you keep growing,

03:32 you keep expanding your understanding of the world,

03:38 but also trying to make a contribution

03:40 to the shaping of this world you are in.

03:43 There are choices you make, investments you make,

03:53 and there are things you expect as the outcomes.

03:59 So for me, it is just to tell everyone here,

04:01 the young people, that they have everything in themselves

04:07 and around themselves to tap into, to grow themselves,

04:14 and to grow the society they are part of.

04:18 In this case, many of them here are Rwandans,

04:21 and it's about Rwanda.

04:23 It's about Africa.

04:23 It's about-- and I'm sure we all learned many things from what

04:32 the young people who spoke before us had to tell us.

04:39 Devine, Christelle, and they are just

04:43 telling us that what we have been doing, what we are doing,

04:47 you can do.

04:50 You don't have to do what they are doing,

04:54 but you can do different things with the same kind of mindset

05:01 and spirit with which they are doing.

05:04 So that is the advice I can give to young people.

05:09 And again, it's not just about one individual.

05:15 It's also that individual and others, and the country,

05:21 and the wider society.

05:23 And there is searching that we can all

05:28 contribute to, or gain from, or do

05:31 that will make a difference in solving

05:36 one problem or the other.

05:37 But around that, benefiting from it.

05:40 I mean, Christelle was telling us about water, providing water.

05:46 Water is all over the place, but people don't access it.

05:51 Or there is where water seemingly is lacking,

05:54 but ideas can actually show people where water is,

06:01 what everyone needs, and to make it available so that more

06:05 people access it than before.

06:08 And around that, create these businesses.

06:12 We heard they were talking about, and many others.

06:15 I'm sure many others in the room, we might hear from them.

06:20 So let the young people really feel

06:25 they have in them and around them many things to tap into.

06:32 That's why I was saying earlier, I was telling somebody,

06:37 said when you actually were asking people questions,

06:42 and this, I was seeing people, you know,

06:47 said put up your hand if you have a question,

06:50 and somebody was--

06:53 another one, another one.

06:54 So I want them to say, yeah, I have something.

06:59 Just raise your hand.

07:00 Put it high up there so that you are seen, and don't hesitate.

07:04 Don't do like this.

07:06 [LAUGHTER]

07:08 So the young people must learn to just show up and try

07:13 their luck, and many of them have had education.

07:20 That's what the country does.

07:21 That's what we are doing.

07:23 We try to make sure that this education is

07:26 available to as many of our young people as possible.

07:29 That's what every country is doing.

07:32 So once you have done that, build on that,

07:37 and the sky is no longer the limit.

07:41 Thank you.

07:42 Thank you.

07:42 [APPLAUSE]

07:46 We've talked a lot about entrepreneurship,

07:49 the different mindset, redefining the story,

07:52 changing our, you know, redefinition,

07:55 or just imagining new things based on what we already have,

07:59 and of course, plugging it into our roots, what is home,

08:04 and what works for our people as an African nation.

08:08 My question to you is, what is your biggest dream

08:11 or achievement that you're really

08:13 looking forward to in the next coming years?

08:16 Wow.

08:16 [LAUGHTER]

08:18 [APPLAUSE]

08:23 It's not just one.

08:25 [LAUGHTER]

08:29 But I can bring all of them together.

08:33 It's just continuing to see Rwanda, Africa stabilize,

08:43 grow, achieve prosperity for our people,

08:50 and be where we should be that others have taken for granted.

09:00 Some people are up there, and they've

09:04 taken that for granted for us.

09:06 We are trying to figure out how to get there.

09:10 I want us to get there.

09:12 [APPLAUSE]

09:19 Get there via our own efforts and resources,

09:26 our people, because we have all of that.

09:29 So I'm sure the young people here,

09:35 and the generation coming after them, and others,

09:41 should, I think, be looking at things like that.

09:45 So that is my dream.

09:51 [APPLAUSE]

09:56 I've-- it's almost unfair to answer that question

10:01 after the president.

10:02 [LAUGHTER]

10:06 I always paraphrase a statement made by Moses, the prophet

10:12 Moses.

10:14 So this guy runs up to him outside and says to him,

10:20 Moses, Moses, there are some people that

10:24 are prophesying in the camp.

10:26 Please stop them.

10:28 And he said, oh, no, no, don't stop them.

10:31 Oh, how I wish all God's people were prophets.

10:35 So I paraphrase it.

10:37 My dream is I wish all young Africans were entrepreneurs.

10:42 Come on, guys.

10:43 [APPLAUSE]

10:47 My dream is to come back here, and there is 5,000 crystals,

10:52 young men and women creating jobs.

10:58 The policies are in place.

11:01 The leadership is in place.

11:02 The support is in place.

11:04 Why not?

11:05 We can do it.

11:07 I think that should be yours.

11:08 The Nike was just do it.

11:11 Now yours becomes we can do it.

11:13 Yeah.

11:14 [LAUGHTER]

11:15 [APPLAUSE]

11:17 Mr. President, Mr. Maisewa, it has

11:20 been an honor to be able to moderate this panel with you

11:24 two.

11:24 I've learned a lot, and I'm pretty sure everyone

11:27 in this room as well is appreciative for your time

11:30 and knowledge.

11:31 And I really want to thank you for being here with us today.

11:33 Thank you.

11:34 [APPLAUSE]

11:34 Thank you.

11:35 Thank you.

11:35 [MUSIC PLAYING]

11:39 [MUSIC PLAYING]

11:43 [MUSIC PLAYING]
