Office of the Director of Public Procurement (ODPP) is facing political pressure from Minister of Foreign Affairs, Dr George Chaponda...
Malawi is the only southern African country without good roads and underdeveloped town and rich in nepotism where only one tribe is favoured this can not take us any far .
WESTERN OR EASTERN GIANTS ARE NOT smart WHEN DOING TRANSACTIONS WITH THIS NATION. OUR CHIEF EARNER OF INCOME IS AGRICULTURE, THE CROPS LIKE TOBACCO, GROUNDNUTS, COTTON; THEY ARE BOUGHT AT VERY GIVE AWAY PRICES. INSTANCE, ZAMBIA SAME TOBACCO IS BOUGHT AT FOUR, FIVE TIMES PER KILOGRAMME AM TELLING YOU THAN HERE. WE PRODUCE MORE TONNAGES THAN THEM, AGAIN, IMAGINE.
THESE BUYERS COME WITH LOTS OF FABRICATIONS,; POOR GOVERNANCE, QUALITY, SO MANY NEGATIVE OBSERVATIONS.
ONLY GOD KNOWS.
Malawi’s position as the poorest country in the world is due to two major reasons; namely: a) natural factors- a large and rapidly growing population on a limited space of land with limited commercially exploitable natural resources. b) Man-made factors-bad political and economic governance right from the one party state of Kamuzu Banda to the multiparty era from 1994. For example due to the greed of Bakili Muluzi who wanted to extend his term of office the transition from Muluzi to Bingu wa Mutharika went badly wrong.

stupid that’s what we want
celebrations without salary loli..
So we are poorer than Haiti, Djibouti, Cape Verde etc. Zamanyazi and yet Mutharika and co are celebrating this 6th July and wasting taxpayer’s money. There is nothing to celebrate – why celebrate mediocrity? I think we celebrated independence during Kamuzu’s reign and there is no need to celebrate if there is nothing tangible. This is like a 50-year old man celebrating passing standard eight exams that he sat 4 decades ago! Kodi sumupanga manyazi?
Oh no no no we are a rich country… Who paid the World Bank for bad publicity? We are very rich.
Andy, actually my worry is not so much have to do with the “running order” of the celebration. My worry has everything to do with the “software” behind the running order of this independence celebratio. My argument is that changing the format of the program is something that they can easily do. The question I am trying to ask is: should we expect them to do anything new or innovative in improving the econony if they are failing to contextualise & innovate on this simple matter? So yes, my worry might sound simplistic at face value. But if you think… Read more »
Umbava Ndi Umbanda Mene Wakuliramu ,anthu Kumangophedwa,winawe Nkumati Dziko Lili Pa Ufulu Za Zii,.
Most Malawians are poor coz of laziness. They expect govt to do things for them. They work less than 8 hours a day. Busy with funerals, weddings, gossips, chatting, excessive praying etc. When some people work hard and get rich, basi kuwanena kuti ndi a satanic. Nthawi zonse blaming politicians for their poverty. Malawians wake up to work hard to develop ur homes.
Poor people are the ones making the country poorer.
