Minister of industry and trade Joseph Mwanavekha has urged companies in Malawi to emulate Nyasa manufacturing company for its value...
Great article! It is time people were able to honestly separate the actions of the civil service from that of the governing party. They should not be the same. That people say that the government has arrested someone is wrong; the police, the Director of Public Prosecution and the courts should not be seen as the same as government. To achieve this, the appointment of positions of responsibility in law and order must be independent of the president and his or her governing party.
koma inu mumayembekeza chiyani.? upulezidenti amaudziwa munthu oti amangogona ku state house? what powers does he have? or you mean just a name? or you mean powers to to be sleeping in the state house? ndipulezidenti amene uja? sianapeza hotel koti azingokhala ku Kamuzu palace basi? angozitula zonsezo.
It’s the nature of human beings to resist change. But you cannot stop change, you only delay it. You may write useless articles Mr Kainja and Mr John Chikago to discourage but we the people are adamant. We know who paid you to be writing silly articles. A Malawi tikusukusulatu. Lazy, corrupt, allowance hungry civil servants benefit from status quo.
This is the best article I have ever read, Mr kainja you have given a credit where it is due and criticism where it is rightfully needed you clearly outlined that this reform process will be meaningless if we are good at having a national call to deal with a problem but when it comes to appointment in government positions ruling party sympathisers are on the list the rest are discarded which is really a big problem of which even Lucius pointed out that Teyende pamodzi kokasonkha misonkho koma tiyende ndi uyu yekha kokadya misonkhoyo. We are also expecting more… Read more »
I totally agree with comment 6 “The Truthful One From the West” You really know what you are writing about and its very TRUE. Someone who is not a Doctor cannot Diagonise a Disease.
We need specifics, which presidential powers are going to be relinquished? It should also be noted that abuse of powers means that in actual fact the acts taken by successive Presidents are not due to the excessive executive powers of the President but actually are illegal acts that go beyond the powers of the President but the mechanisms to hold the President to account are not working. So you could reduce the powers of the President more effectively by improving accountability mechanisms. If a president wants to abuse his powers and do illegal acts it doesn’t matter what the statutes… Read more »
True that, becouse, in malawi, most presidents, they actually dont know, or deliberately, pretend not to know, that, using government resourses, without follow right procedures, is an offence. Hence, malawians, must, or should, make some proper arrangements, to deal with somepowers that are vested to the head of state, so that, the so called presidents, must be accountable. Hence, it is not good to allow the president to have more powers.
Ok
Ati reform.

Civil Service olo kwa azungu is a mess.
This is an excellent article which gives food for thought to all politicians and the general public in Malawi. During the MCP era there was nothing like political interference in appointments in the Civil Service as well as in the Statutory Corporations. Appointments were purely on merit and people with good experience and track record were promoted to higher office with more responsibilities. But now what is happening is that people with political connections come from no where to take up senior positions while experienced people who have worked for the institution for a long time are side lined or… Read more »
