A total waste of resources. Replanting in a forest reserve? Why don’t you protect the remaining trees against charcoal production? Why don’t you let natural regeneration take its course? You mean Forestry Department could not advise the SPC and Lilongwe Water Board about this? Who is the Director of Forestry??SHAME SHAME SHAME!!!!

Dont blame others Mr Mkondiwa, 10 year rule of DPP there has not been any improvement in Electricity supply, blackouts have become worse. What do you want people to use for cooking then, what about bathing water? you want them to use toilet tissue for fire. Another thing is even during MCP very few Malawians could afford an electric stove etc, the problem started way back but now it just gone worse because more people are building houses as well using stone age method of burning bricks right in the cities

it is not about replanting, it is about protecting the forest. With the available resources for the exercise cant we have another MAFCO at the site and probably Chikangawa?? It seems the Forestry guys have failed completely

Commendable leadership by the spc. Symbolically powerful. But results are questionable. As the people will be going to dzalanyama they will meet hundreds of bicycles carrying dzalanyama charcoal. There is need for decisive action with consistent enforcement. Forestry dept has failed. Send the army to camp there to deal with the illegal charcoal dealers. Soon there will be no water in LL.

Ghandi said plan a tree and look after it fove five year to ensure it survives. Sounds like common sense but the survival rate od the tees we plant every year is very low. have said it before. I will say it again. Look at the root causes. Lilongwe rresidents use charcoal because they can’t use geysers and cookers because these equipment are expensive and electricity is not available to them. Dzalanyama people cut trees because that’s they need money, they don’t have jobs. It’s a question of demand and supply. Work on both sides, but more on the demand… Read more »

For Dzalanyama, you do not need replanting but allow for regeneration with max security. Management system for this Reserve needs to be exclusive. Government should introduce a small levy to water. users in Lilongwe City for protection and livelihood issues for locals in the vicinity of the Reserve.
