As part of this important meeting, participants explored Senator, Dr. Rasha's personal and professional sides through questions about her likes, dislikes, hobbies, personality, education, early life, career, achievements, success stories and challenges she overcame. Additionally, her vision and plans for achieving the objectives of the Merck Foundation, as well as her personal goals, were discussed. 
 
Senator, Dr. Rasha Kelej, CEO of Merck Foundation expressed, "I am extremely happy to receive so much love during the session. '90 Minutes with Merck Foundation CEO', I really appreciate all of you, for giving me an opportunity to share my views, work, life and experience with many of our partners and stakeholders including our alumni, media members, award winners and also our social media followers. During the session, I answered a range of questions, and I was also able to update everyone about our programs and their impact, and the future plans. I hope the information I shared will be beneficial for many and motivate them to reach their potential and fulfill their dreams in life."
 
Senator, Dr. Rasha Kelej has experience spanning over 29 years. She has been recognized as One of the 100 Most Influential Africans in the world for 2019, 2020, 2021 & 2022. She has also been appointed as Senator at The Egyptian Senate (2020 - 2025) and awarded Doctorate of Letters Honoris Causa.
 
"I was impressed with the range of questions that were asked during the meeting. I am happy that my followers and partners want to know more about every aspect of my work-life fusion concept. I feel connected to them after this one-on-one discussion," emphasized Senator, Dr. Rasha Kelej.
 
During the session, Senator, Dr. Rasha Kelej responded to each question with utmost grace and transparency. Below is the glimpse of the session.

"Can you tell us about your leadership style?" asked Dr. Ndikumana Sudi from Burundi.
 
Dr. Rasha responded, "I believe in leading with example. A leadership style should be inspirational but should also be situational. I change my leadership style according to the situation and stage I am in. As a leader, it is very important for one to be alert of the circumstance one is dealing with, the stage we are in because time is very critical. You cannot be the same personality in all situations with everyone at all times. Successful Leadership style should be agile and multidimensional.
 
If there is a disaster and the crisis have to be managed, one has to be very quick and autocratic. Here, the decision has to be made on time so you take the steering wheel in your hand and just go for it because time is very important and critical in this situation.
 
When there is a luxury of time, and planning, then it can be dealt in a democratic way. You take opinions, and then chose the best and most suitable opinions and ideas.
 
But, overall, a leadership style always has to be very inspirational and leading by example. People need to see how you deal with problems, what are your set of work values or ethical values and you set an example with that."
 
Rebecca Tetteh, PeaceFM from Ghana acknowledged Dr. Rasha's work on educating Linda Program. She asked, "It's commendable how you work under the educating Linda program as it supports the education of many young, talented African girls. Can you tell us more about it?"

Dr. Rasha responded, "Educating Linda is a very basic program where we provide grants to schoolgirls through our local partners to support their education. However, what we do differently is that we use unique ways to raise awareness and build advocacy for the same. We created many songs to promote girl education that can be aired on TV and radios like "Girl Can" by Irene and Cwezi from Liberia and Ghana, "Yes, You Can" by Blaze and Tamyris Moiane from Mozambique, "Superwoman" by Cwezi and Adina from Ghana, "Like Them" by Kenneth Mugabi from Uganda, and "I am Not Anyone's Bride, Take Me to School" by Wezi from Zambia. We have collaborated with artists around the word to encourage community to support girl's education and create a change of mindset towards perception of girls in education through innovative and creative new ways, as we believe in reaching and catching children when they are younger.
 
We have also launched children's storybooks like "Jackline's Rescue", "A Ride into the Future" and "Educating Linda" to support girl education.
 
Our Merck Foundation "More Than a Mother" Awards is also a step towards encouraging communities to empower women and support girl education. So, our program isn't different but our ways of advocating the social issue are novel."
 
The meeting was also live streamed on Senator, Dr. Rasha Kelej Facebook page, Senator, Dr. Rasha Kelej Twitter handle and Senator, Dr. Rasha Kelej Instagram page.
 
"After the success of the first live stream meeting, I have received request from many of our stakeholders to conduct a series of similar engaging meetings often. I am planning to do conduct such meeting on a regular basis. Stay tuned to know about the next session!" added Dr. Kelej.

RBI's Deputy Governor (Shri Rabi Sankar), Chief General Manager (Shri P. Vasudevan), Shri Nandan Nilekani and NPCI's MD & CEO (Shri Dilip Asbe) have launched 'UPI One World' for foreign nationals visiting India. The launch was conducted at the JW Marriott, Prestige Golfshire Resort in Bengaluru which is hosting the first G20 Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors (FMCBG) meeting under the G20 Indian Presidency. Transcorp is one of four entities permitted by RBI and NPCI to issue UPI One World to foreign nationals; and the only entity with both Foreign Exchange (AD2) and Payments (PPI) licenses required to exchange currency and thereafter issue UPI One World wallets. Mr. Gerardo Zuniga (Director of International Affairs, Bank of Mexico) was issued a UPI One World wallet and successfully transacted using Transcorp's '@trans' handle.

Ayan Agarwal, CEO (Payment Systems), Transcorp said, "We're honoured to work for Nation and Network to showcase the prowess of UPI to the world. UPI One World will be powered by Transcorp's trustworthy '@trans' handle; we remain grateful to RBI's progressive policies and superb support from NPCI. Transcorp aims to service the tens of millions of visitors who travel to India but till now have not been able to pay at the 50 million UPI QR accepting merchants. We welcome partnerships which leverage both our Payments and Forex licenses to deliver compliant and curated financial products to Indian and global citizens."
 
Transcorp UPI One World wallets will initially be offered via the Transcorp-Cheq app to all G20 nationals and Non-Resident Indians (NRIs). A simple KYC based process followed by mobile registration will allow users to load money via International Currency/Cards and pay seamlessly at any QR code in India using the '@trans' handle which operates on the interoperable UPI 2.0 rails.
 
Commenting on the same, Sudhanshu Shekhar of Cheq (Transcorp's first partner to launch UPI on PPI), mentioned, "We are delighted to be at the forefront of global financial innovation based out of India and work towards nation building and maximising the potential of UPI. It has been a true pleasure working closely with NPCI and Transcorp to deliver UPI One World in under two weeks after the Reserve Bank of India updated its Master Direction."
 
The first G20 FMCBG meeting under the G20 Indian Presidency sees the participation of Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors of the G20 nations and heads of International Organisations. In total, there are 72 delegations attending the meeting including Smt. Nirmala Sitharaman, India's Finance Minister.
