why condemning MDF? what will happen if the forest is gone? If forest department can not protect our beautiful forests countrywide let MDF do it on their behalf. we are experiencing massive blackouts because of low water lever as a result of deforestation. Malawi can not develop if we let everyone do what he feels is good. Do your job MDF.

MDF, please beat more idiots. Also beat charcoal makers, vendors and buyers.

Driving in Lilongwe at nigh is like driving in a rural village. It is dark, in fact Lilongwe is the darkest city in the world. I wonder why Lilongwe is called a city. A city of hyaenas!!! MDF, beat more charcoal makers and vendors. You are doing excellent work.
