ECAMA and Mr. Kachaje, we need to be told something new. Everything you are spending time discussing is stuff we already are aware of. What solutions does ECAMA propose for Malawi beyond singing the same song of asking government to deal with corruption, etc? ECAMA is in a special position to influence policy in Malawi and should be able to propose avenues for change for Malawi and the government to adopt. ECAMA should be discussing the latest knowledge and economic research on Malawi that should be adopted by planners….. You come to us again with the rubbish we have been… Read more »
The Malawi economists are prescribing wrong medicine for a wrong disease or ailment. How can the resumption of aid cure rampant corruption and mismanagement? Actually I strongly feel that Malawi can easily wane herself from donor support from funds realized and saved from proper financial management, transparency, accountability and prudent internal controls. This therefore means that prudent financial management and tight internal controls should be introduced not win back donor support but the country to achieve self sustainance. No country has ever developed through donor aid except Germany through the Marshal Plan which was largely a big grant. Most of… Read more »
I think the main problem is that the ruling party i s very much addicted to looting, and sometimes in broad daylight. This is why our development partners have looked the other way and nothing short of a complete change of leadership will convince them to change their mind. Imagine; our president is shielding Chaponda despite recommendations by Commissions of Enquiry, our president wants to run the ACB and NAO, he just looks on as the so called Cadets terrorise established government offices etc,etc. We seem not to be making progress on Cashgate, maizegate, Embassygate and several other ….gate cases… Read more »
Surely some of these Economists are the ones who encourages corruption and dependency syndrome Malawi cause of this adamant thick in the head thinking.Why should Malawi NOT stand alone and when do you think the country can be emancipated from donors ? It seems you benefit a lot thru the corruption and you know if the donor’s pull away, you will always be held accountable with the Malawian sweated money. Shame on Malawi economics and their economists
… yes indeed, shame to the so called economists! By the way, donors said it all and earlier than this. They openly said that they also have financial problems back home; and their priorities and ideologies do differ and with time and country. Have you not heard Trump saying “America First” repeatedly? Malawi did not actually said no to donor support. It is the donors themselves who said it, and indeed stopped it. So do you think we should keep on crying for them even if they do not want? For how long? Negotiations for donor support have been there… Read more »
O………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….O The observation that there is regrettable mismanagement of funds, wholesale-corruption, and free-for-all theft is very correct. . . . But is there anybody who believes that the solution (or one of the solutions) to all these problems/observations is winning back donor confidence, hence aid? Come on, guys! . . . Kodi who doesn’t know that if MRA were to be remitting a fair proportion (at least 95%) of tax collections, Malawi would manage to get along very well? . . . Who is too new in town to know that notwithstanding MRA’s dishonesty (in declaring collections), a bigger proportion… Read more »
NO NO NO…
A big proportion in government is not only stolen by politicians but also the generic civil servants themselves. Think about the JB cashgate where a chunk of civil servants was involved.

The problem is not donor aid. The problem is that we Malawians do not have an ethos that would put donor aid to good use. We are a low trust society, tribalistic in our approach, so, we are better off without donor aid.
Malawi land of beggars.
