SOS Children's Villages in Africa

https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=373577966012380&set=a.313651868671657.67827.196389603731218&type=1&theater The four members of ABBA have joined together to sponsor a family in the Republic of Central Africa in support of the organization called " SOS Children's Villages " , reported Swedish newspaper Dagens Industri . His ex-company Polar Music and Union songs AB , ABBA sponsor the construction of a home for orphans in the city of Bossangoa .

 " SOS Children's Villages "approach has a very serious and long term. We were pleasantly impressed and thought it would be good to have a house in town , " said Björn . He has never been in the Republic of Central Africa (RCA for its acronym in English ), but the house to be built has inspired him to find outmore about the country and possibly visit in the future. "It will be difficult to get the four ABBA members go together at the same time . We talked about it , but it's something I want to do within a time . "   


When asked about his philosophy regarding private donations of money to charity, Björn said :"We must be convinced that the money actually goes where it should. That's what sold us on this project, the fact it will be a reality - and unlike other projects where the money runs out through the hands of a bunch of middlemen "

Bjorn On Desert Island Discs

Bjorn On Day 6 Radio




The Royal Canadian Mint is considering a cashless Canadian future. They've experimenting with something they call MintChip, a digital-only form of currency that might be the future of money.But over in Sweden, it's a different story. Bills and coins make up only 3 per cent of their economy, so much of what's done there is cashless. 


One of the most visible promoters of this is ABBA's Bjorn Ulvaeus.  Brent Bambury from day 6 radio speaks with him. So what are Sweden's bank robbers doing now that there's no money in Sweden's banks?


Christian Ulvaeus sates they've resorted to petty crime. The 25 year old was robbed three times in Sweden, which led his father to join the movement to make Sweden cash-free.


"Sweden is a small country," he said. "Swedish krona is a small currency and it's only used between these borders, which means we could be the first ones out.


"Some people are like Uncle Scrooge types who like the money itself, the coins and the bills, but they are very few. And they're getting fewer."


It's still probably too early to tell if Sweden will be a cash-free nation any time soon.
