Actually the rise if fees for NGO’s if over 400%. We pay in Kwacha not dollars and the dollar rate is high now but it changes from time to time. We currently paid K60,000 – so the raise is over 400%. Talk about runaway inflation

Ha, a joke, trying to promote business investment and then screwing around with the permit fees. Let’s be serious guys, Malawi needs to do everything possible to attract investors, not put them off and short-sighted moves like this will only cause these dollars to be invested in our neighbouring countries

Comment number 4 is right. We just have to be using United States Dollar just like the Zimbabwians. Our Kwacha more than necessary becomes kwada. What a currency. If we cannot go for US dollar, then a British Pound would do us good.

Let’s not relax laws now, make it easy and sell our land to rich foreigners just to raise temporal finances to have a ‘breather’ at a time of donor inactivity. This is a suicidal ‘squeeze’ action.
