Bravo my president . This will be one of the greatest things that can transform our country if all of us malawians pull together in that direction.Ife a Malawi takhala tiri kusilira maiko aanzathu kumati kwakuti ndi kwakuti ndikwabwino yet, we have been building village like structures in town . City building regulations have been ignored by the citizens and the regulations inforcers have been sitting idle doing nothing about it. People have belt structures which are below standard in the city , Building within the roads parameter is a common thing. e.g Just after the chileka lunzu circle going… Read more »

It.s not just a point of painting. The standard of buildings being built in the city leaves a lot to be desired. How can we be constructing one or zero story buildings in the city in 2015? These are like tobacco barns! Lilongwe is worse in that aspect. Are there city planners in Lilongwe? If we kept late Bingu’s directive of minimum seven stories Lilongwe, Blantyre and Mzuzu would be transformed. And roads – ngati mopita mbewa. Timiseu tating’ono ting’ono negotiating buildings!!! Wake up Malawi, let’s not just authorise any building plan after receiving ziphuphu. Corrupt town planners damage the… Read more »

A good one Your Excellency but there are a lot of issues to be sorted out in our cities and towns.We are in 2015 but things have never been worse in Our Councils and City Assemblies like they are now.There is inadequate refuse collection. There is no real accountability and patriotism and where the City/town rates and market fees goes nobody knows as the whole system has got no checks.
As long as the whole local govt system has no checks and balances things will be even worse than now READ my LIPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mr. President, It was a good initiative to go in the town and observe the conditions of the properties and filth loaded town. Yes of course it is a good move to give a boost to Mr. Mayor and his allies to start harassing and harvest a fortune from the initiation. Now tell me you did not even comment about the containers and vendors occupying the roads and lands belonging to private owners who cant even speak about vacating to even BCC cause the same BCC who invited you about the red stars doesn’t bother at all to force the… Read more »

Ife a MCP tafuna tiyamikire maganizo amenewo popeza ndiye chitukuko. Tithokoze a President pozindikira ubwino wa operation Red Star which others despised MCP for when it was introduced 24 years ago. If preceeding govts continued with the programme bwezi our cities were improved by now.

@Nambeya you have a point my brother. What really strikes me most is that some of these so called bottle stores and also Video Shows, with their Chichewa translations, do actually put their loud speakers outside directing their noise to neighbors and passers by. Please help Malawi get rid off this noise pollution.
