It is difficult for these DPP to consult people at the grassroots level because their move is a typical campaign gimmick as opposed to real development.

Tapping water from Shire is very expensive on Pumps maintenance, Electricity and also on Chemicals to treat water. While water from Mulanje will be tapped using Gravity fed system and is fresh with less chemicals to treat.

KKKKKKK Koma anthu a ku MJ, Bravo indeed. It’s high time Government officials started respecting and consulting the locals. Keep it up, otherwise you will just experience the negative effects of the project while others are benefiting.

The reactions by the community is not justifiable. The should have engaged the minister and present their grievances in a dignified manner and wait for government response.
I have noticed one thing in most of the projects which are carried out in our country that there is lack of community participation in the preliminary stages. A social facilitator should have been inluded to look at the issues like those.
Projects like this one will open a new chapter in our history as a country. Bravo Profesor APM

Fwetseke. The issues were presented already to govt but they decided to do it in their own way. What engagement are you talking about. These are leaders that think they have all powers and they know it all but niw the centre can not hold – things are falling apart, the DPP is crumbling – ayiona bangwe

Many projects and programs in Malawi lack Social Impact Assesment and Strategic Impact Assessment. Focus is heavily put on Environmental Assessment

Very true my Chief. We cannot accept anarchy as tool to air our grievances. We are not a banana republic. if those people have genuine concern let them act within the law. But i think it is people like Nkuluzado who want to score political mirage at the expense of development.
