KOLDING, Denmark, April 27, 2010 — The fight against malaria has been ongoing for many years, yet every minute a person dies from malaria.
On Sunday, April 25, 2010, Bestnet Europe Ltd., in cooperation with partners all over the world, took an active role to lead the fight against deadly mosquito bites.
"Hope Is the Light," the hit song, was written and produced in the HIP CAT Studios in Denmark for World Malaria Day by local producers Michael Skouboe and Danny Otto, accompanied by South African rapper "Edward V," to shed light on the world's malaria problem. It is a song that brings hope for the many small children and pregnant women who live every day at risk of suffering from deadly malaria.
With a superb James Sampson in the vocal foreground, the ear-catching tunes of "Hope Is the Light" go straight to the heart.
This summer, a music video for the song will be produced in Africa. Along with movie producer Johannes Berggreen, Bestnet will send James Sampson to Uganda – both of whom are donating their time and effort to create awareness about malaria.
On Sunday, April 25, 2010, events took place worldwide in favor of World Malaria Day and Roll Back Malaria, and in Denmark, Bestnet participated with James Sampson signing CDs in Copenhagen.
