My calculation indicates that MK375billion by 130 km, is 2.9Billion kwacha per kilometre. Seriously this is too much. And this project will supply water to Lilongwe only. Not even any other district. This does not seem sustainable to me considering the financial stress we are in. To construct a borehole it costs about 600 000 malawi kwacha. Now if we can have 10 000 boreholes across Lilongwe, every household will have water for atleast washing and bathing, and then the current water supply will be enough for drinking and cooking without stopping. That will cost 6 billion only and we… Read more »
Kkkkkk Mr Risbon Comea can you run a factory using bole hole water? You are forgetting what it takes to have such huge modern project to be completed. Just a reminder consider the following: Feasibility studies, Detailed designs, ferrying equipment to the site, actual construction, construction of resaviors, installation of treatment plants to ensure that water is potable. Again do not forget that this is a permanent perennial water supply system. Remember also that the project will help to create jobs in Malawi unlike a bole hole. Do you know how much it costs to maintain a bolehole? and How… Read more »
the best way is to have a twin brother project that aims at reafforestation of the bare land along river banks and in the hills and mountains so as to provide vegetative cover. this will reduce the terrible climate change that is affecting water supply into lake Malawi.
Please do not tell blatant lies to Malawians that there was an open tender process for this contract. We know that all process was done in secret under the table with the usual corrupt figures and believe you me, huge sums of money is being siphoned here. This tender was supposed to be an open International Competitive Bidding so that the best contractor should be identified through transparent process throughout. PAC, please this is another big job you have and do not let tax payers to be channeled to greedy people like this. This is why Malawi is continuing to… Read more »
My calculations say its a MK375 billion project and not MK28 billion. However, I ask Mr Lilongwe Ligomeka to know that even if it was not an open tender project, potential and interested investor in the project remains Simbi because he has the financial muscle to do the project. Otherwise Malawi Government never expected anybody to come up with such a challenging massive project any soon. All what I am expecting are the results (ie seeing water being pumped to Lilongwe for domestic use). A Malawi inchifukwa chake sititukuka. Mantha too much.
We are watching! ESCOM says Lake Malawi water levels went down by 1.5m and are not recovering despite heavy rains causing floods in some parts of the Centre and North. Here we are planning to pump 50million litres per day from the same drying lake and expect continuous power from generators that needs much water in the Shire river from the same Lake Malawi. I can foresee one of these plans failing to meet the expectations and this is how we plan always hence causing the country to be perpetually poor.
Big man do you trust ESCOM on water levels of lake Malawi ? these guys are liars man
