Antananarivo, Madagascar - A short film - Part 1

I am visiting Antananarivo, Madagascar to get a feel and understand SAYNA, a young company in the space of digital literacy and employment, started by a very young entrepreneur, Matina Razahimahefa (26) at the age of 17.

This short film introduces you to the city of Antananarivo, and it's charming environs.

As I walk through the streets for meetings at offices, and over lunches, I just happen to film short clips and stitch into these short films.

First impressions of Madagascar and capital Tana (Antananarivo)

Nation - Underdeveloped, with challenges of poverty.

Tana -

Densely populated, concentrated and crowded.

Traffic heavy, slow moving, mostly oneway as vehicle numbers seem to have exploded.

Terrain, undulating and mountainous.

Huge numbers keep walking, public transport lacking.

People - middle class, lower middle class majority - keen on education, aspirational

Weather - a little more cooler than Kenya (Tana 9 - 23 degrees Centigrade)

This is part 1, part 2 shall follow.

The short films on SAYNA and it's activities are loaded separately.

Will be a pleasure to hear your feedback.

Thanks.
