This article is only about form, and not about content. PR campaign, engage the opposition, but it does not spell out what a president can do in his situation. The only way to bring back forex into the country in the short term is donor support, and that is conditional on cashgate reforms (possible) and investigations that will probably implicate the president’s inner circle. And that is a hairy issue for which this article gives no solution.

I have had a nasty day today . Galimoto yanga was nearly smashed by rioting school children in Blantyre . But after reading Che Spindulo’s comment, I could afford not only a smile, but a big long laugh . Che Spindulo woyee!

Let the president get lid of all the chuffs, whether politicians or officials even if they are DPP. You are the president of the Country more than of DPP. It is not in the time of Adolf Hitler when he used emotions for many and reserved reasoning for few. These days Mr President you have to reserve reasoning for many and emotions for few. Once Kamuzu said that he would pick a minister from the street, but not a PS. I did not understand then, but now i do. The problem we have at hand is so simple. We have… Read more »

APM has very limited leverage on how the economy can turn around. The solution is simple, prosecute the cashgate cases swiftly and allow the audit dating back from 2005 to be conducted. Prosecute those that will be found to have done wrong even if they are DPP executives. The unfortunate part of all this is that DPP will cry politics instead of smelling the coffee and realizing that this is the mess they left JB with. Also it’s sad to see that donors are pushing causes which Malawians should have been in the fore front pursuing. We need to hold… Read more »

Easier said than done. The writer of this piece is right on the mark. The problem with our country is not due to lack of solutions. But rather it is due to lack of political will by APM. He does not have enough guts to put his own balls on the barbecue. He knows that allowing the system to operate with expedience would mean roasting his own balls faster than he would other wise have liked. He is praying that the judiciary will delay these cash gate cases even longer so he can buy time. Unfortunately time is not one… Read more »

Unfortunately APM has surrounded himself with the same people who were ill-advising his late brother. His repeated statements are like a president who is Clueless. He talks by jumping from one topic to another without a clear vision of what he wants to bring across. He leaves listeners wondering if he is a presidential material.
