Ino sinthawi yokamba za m’maloto. Just improve road infrastructure, electricity supply, water supply, stable currency . When this is done you will not need to talk to the investors. They will trek to Malawi on their own.

Hd – No. 16: You need to be realistic and face facts. Quoting the Bible will not solve Malawi’s problems. Malawi is a very religious country with a proliferation of churches and sects, but is this helping its development? In spite of all the prayers being offered up to the Almighty, is He listening? There is no evidence that he is. The country is just going further behind. Too much reliance on prayer and religion is getting the country nowhere. What is needed is honesty, hard work and a realistic, down-to-earth approach to the countries problems and needs.

Kandakwiza. U might be right partly. But investors need electricity in this modern time. How do they bring their own? How many times has ths president said he has talked with investors? He went to US a country he has stayed did he come with investors. These British came to see the situation in Malawi and see if they can invest. I can sure u after seeing they are not coming. Lets be realistic. Investors are interested to invest in a country which promise growth Malawi is not. Malawi has so many problems. Chines complain workers stealling and we call… Read more »

Real Investment is in energy and water. The investors will break even so quickly.
Bring the clean energy e.g solar to assist Escom and make a fortune for yourselves.

Malawi need investors whether with or without electricity or water even poor roads.I salute our President and his government for this very important meeting he had with British investors. The first time British came to Malawi there no electricity. If they want to invest in Malawi they will bring their own electricity. Time has come for Malawi our beautiful country to start producing than consuming. But the main problem is nepotism which bring conflict in the country as a result it is not good for investors. We need a united Malawi nation. Peace and stability is what the investor need.

Which companies do these people represent? Why are you hiding, if they are real investors? I suspect these are fellow crooks which mutharika wants to use to symphony tax payers money to secret bank accounts. The truth is no serious investor will put his or her money in a country that has daily black outs, high transport costs, very corrupt and inefficient government services (just look at roar traffic, customs etc). Which investor will go where criminals terrorise residents and the corrupt and poorly equipped policy do nothing? Which investor goes to a country which taxes internet services making ICT… Read more »
