70% will definately scare investors away.lets draw lessons from zim.
The reporter misquoted Mr Mlombwa. What he said is that IBAM want 70% of government business to be given to Indigenous Malawian businesses.
A spectacularly dumb idea. I’d laugh if Mlombwa wasn’t being so serious.
If you want to be taken seriously, talk sense and constructive. Mr Mlombwa you have the money, go on and invest. Not in ‘chicken’ business competing with a zizili farm but in large scale utility or manufacturing industry. Invest to add value and export. Earn forex.

In other words, he wants people to reap where they did not sow. If that is the case, let the local INDIGENOUS businessperson invest 70% of the Investment value to truly earn his 70% stake. Unfortunately this is the common situation in Malawi, people without the initiative or capital to invest want to now start imposing restrictions on those who do. And how exactly will this policy increase Tax Revenue Collection Mr. Mlombwa? Forgive my blatancy but over 95% of the Cashgate Criminals are Indiginous Malawians as you call it, did they pay tax on what they stole too??? This… Read more »
