Developing Malawi is very simple because of its small size.The Japanese are the ones that funded the construction of Kia but the then government didn’t negotiate for a bigger airport of international standards with at least three terminals and two runways,an airport that would serve a future big Lilongwe city.If the Japanese settled for a small sum of offer to construct the airport, the MCP government had an obligation to plan to save some money to top up the Japanese amount in order to fulfil an ambitious project which would be the pride of the nation.It is safe to conclude… Read more »

Malawi needs good aviation infrastructure … A second runway and a brand new terminal building west of the VIP building, complete with spacious new car parking lot. Sounds fancy but I bet very strategic for this country’s future needs. The current KIA terminal building should all be for flights to domestic destinations and short haul routes like Lusaka, Kafue, Dar es Salaam, and Tete. Mzuzu desperately needs an airport and schedules flights. So does Mangochi. An international Airport of high quality standards at Cape Maclear is not just wishful thinking. Imagine an airport that is ready to process passengers who… Read more »

The best thing with Japan and China is that they don’t bring money, they bring in the project finance it and hand the keys – if you want to steal the key.

KIA was financed and built by the apartheid regime of South Africa in the 80s, after three decades we have failed to expand and maintain it coz we are so greedy with money so short sighted that we want to steal money for the next election. imagine if that cashgate money was used for such a project? We had to wait for another handout for this project? This is embarrassing, guys! I think it’s true to say: Munthu wakuda ndi wakuda basi!!! Anada zonse…
