Germany gives Malawi K48bn development aid: Impressed with fight against corruption
Malawi government has received a boost from Germany with a grant of 58 million euro (about K48 billion) to improve the country’s health infrastructure, agriculture sector and family planning initiatives.



The development aid was announced by German Minister of Economic Cooperation and Development, Gerd Müller, during a corporation audience with President Peter Mutharika at Kamuzu Palace in Lilongwe.
“We are committing 58 million euro as part of our economic cooperation with Malawi,” said Müller.
He said German also want to strengthen political cooperation with Malawi.
Müller said the “prerequisite for development is good governance, peace and stability, as well as fighting corruption.”
He said German is pleased that Malawi is “working hard” to fight corruption and maintain peace.
“This is why we commit ourselves to supporting our identified key areas of support to Malawi which include agriculture, health, education and the G20 Compact with Africa for Malawi to become a member,” Müllersaid.
He said Malawi has the “great potential” to develop and that German want to support the rural population though agricultural enhancement programmes with the creation of the Agricultural Innovation Centre to increase value addition and fair trade with Europe and the rest of the world.
The new grant will be channeled though German development agencies, including the German Society for International Cooperation (GIZ) and KfW, a German Development Bank which has been handling German aid in Malawi.
President Mutharika commended the support the German Government has been rendering to Malawi.
He also asked German to help Malawi address its “energy challenges” as he beckons investors from Germany to invest in the country “specifically to solve energy challenges which have been compounded by the adverse impact of climate change.”

Operekawo mwina sanamve za 54billion yomwe yasowetsedwa kweninkweniko ku OPC.
Which Corruption? amayooòoo ine. The whole world is corrupt.
The West is very uncomfortable with the inroads China is making in Africa generally and Malawi in particular to the extent countries like Germany will assist even plunderers of public resources. What efforts in fighting corruption are these Germans talking about when it’s so plain and clear even the president is a beneficiary of stolen money? Remember K145m?
Salute!
Which fight against corruption? The Office of the President is leading in swindling taxpayers money according to the report that came out yesterday. K54 billion swindled and OPC is in the lead.
chi big pumbwa kusekelela kwambiri kuti chidyenso money ngaati mmene chimachitila ndi ma 145 mita aja!!!!!!!!!
You don’t pay back a grant. Kodi munapita sukulu zake zakuti. It is only you who cannot appreciate what the government is doing. Mwagwanayo. Nsanje bwanji.
Manyazi akugwireni amene mumatukwana Boma. Pitala, keep it up. Wowinawina. Guys give credit where it is due.
Kapena akuzembera ma minerals athu
This is a situation of give a fool a rope to hang himself, they know the malawi government will. More over its thru Giz so not direct grant. Who can trust this government? Not even their wives can trust them.
We should just appreciate the never ending support from the donors. However, for people who stay in LL and have open eyes we can easily see the serious level of diversion of public resources to personal use by civil servants. If they only took enough for their needs they could have been excused due to lower salaries but when they live poshy life styles it means they are taking too much.
The is politics of the West. They have seen that there is no unity among the opposition parties and the Germans have resorted to the ruling party. In other words they are indirectly campaigning for DPP to stay in power in the name of fighting corruption.
Otsutsa simungayamikirepo ntchito yabwino imene APM akugwirayi?
Yesterday we read about a 54 billion fraud in government and today this???
What is wrong? Which a achievements in the fight against corruption?
Could we get a statement from both sides, the German Embassy and the National Audit Office please?
How do this German Minister get his inside information concerning performances of Malawi government?
Giving a big promise like this ahead of election campaign, where does it lead to???
Tooo many questions and hardly answers…
at 80 years mr maliseche you have to retire my braza, wakula Wa dada iwe ,nyengo zakana mr maliseche kakaleni ndizizukulu muzimwati tii ndikuotela moto , the latest generation should come in, cadet out zimenezo mukapeze kwozipangila Ku Malawi ndikwantendere mpaka ma cadet achani kuocha magalimoto
Chitsiru iwe, ife all we need is delivery of development not someone’s age. We are not interested in that, we do not benefit anything from age, we benefit from development. Whether someone is youthful or old it has nothing to do with us. All we need is development. After all ukutenga Nickname (or username) I have been using bwanji? Mayina atha? Wamisala iwe eti?
Hehede angosaina awa and that money sangawapase. It will be sent through GTZ or other agencies. How can any donor trust Malawi on corruption when we are top on world corruption index.
Kapena angozisunga azamupasa Chilima. Ma German ndi ochenjeratu anthu opanga Benz awa sunakhale
tapusisidwa kokwanila pano tatopa, ngati antu mumalowela mboma kulemela its going to an end , a Malawi tapenya kwambiri mpaka mr maliseche akudabwa kuti zikukala bwanji mpaka Malawi kufika saizi imeneyi , chomwe chinauluka chinatela maliseche your days are numbered very soon you will be forced to be retired naweso uzimilila anzako akafika pansokano umaona ngati a chair zimamusangalasa president wopuma ngati ameneyi kumaimilila president akafika, very soon you will join him

Kodi akulu inu mwatenga username yanga bwanji yoti “Heavyduty” mwaganiza bwanji? Osasakha username ina bwanji? Mukukhala ngati ma “username” atha bwanji. Ndinu a misala kapena?
The Germans don’t trust the DPP Government that’s why they have channelled the funds thru GTZ.
shame on you because u still can’t acknowledge the fact that donors have confidence in government in as far as fight against corruption is concerned. Read between lines and you will understand what this means to the nation. The IMF, American government, The EU and all donors are back with support and you choose to be negative about your country? what a shame!
Mr Zaife izi, this is the greatest problem or sickness we Malawian have, we often wish bad for the country. It takes a white man in Frankfurt and Berlin to see good things government is doing and yet a Malawian who should have been the first to see is turning a blind eye. He can’t see anything or progress Malawi is making in terms of developments in transport sector, health sector, agriculture, social cash transfers, macro and microeconomic etc. Malawian can’t see anything good in stability of our currency, dropping inflation, dropping interests rates. Wake-up my brothers.
Corruption ikanakhala mmene mumaneneramu bwenzi IMF & World bank itachita recommend Malawi? Lero ndi awa ma Germans inu mukadali “tulo” ndikunyoza basi. I think muchite manyazi ysopano. My free advice to you is: change course immediately before you die with envy, anger and jealous. Muphulikatu ndi mkwiyo
thanks to our beloved president
muli ndi nsanje man, kutereku pamenepo mtima ukukupwetekani.
This means the Govt is on track.Donors are happy in the way APM is administering this country.Shame to those who are unable to see this development.
shame on you too,,, akuti sizipta ku account number one kuja mumaba kuja
GIZ and KfW are just additional channels but always a German Development Bank has been the one handling German aid in Malawi… It’s not about not trusting The DPP Govt, it’s just about following they always do. Sizaumbuli zanuzo APA😂😂😂
