What is Action AIDS plan on what they have yelled about>
It may well be time to renegotiate outdated tax treaties, however Action Aid overstates the potential benefits. They have not published any calculations of the amount of revenues that they think might be gained by renegotiating the treaties, but simply make sweeping claims that corporate tax could be the ‘paramount source’ of public revenues, and ‘the way to go’ in addressing the Malawi’s budget woes.

You can not just utter shit without giving out the probable solutions. You need to account for all the money you idiots have received against the benefits accrued to beneficiaries.
I ENTIRELY AGREE THAT MOST TAX TREATIES ARE NOT FAIR FOR MOST DEVELOPING OR SAY MOST AFRICAN COUNTRIES.
THE TAX TREATIES ARE LONG OVERDUE AND MALAWI MUST TAKE ACTION WITH IMMEDIATE EFFECT.
