Honestly this was not the Original design, Apa panabedwa ndalama,
Would this piece of shit be built in Japan in the modern age? What a wasteful of land! The shit needs to be torn down!!
thats not a k26billion structure. period.
There is no truth in what the Ambassador said. The work done was very shoddy. A Malawi, Kusayenda kapena kupepetulidwa? Can we really accept such manyaziful piece of work at the entry point of our country? Peter ndi azinzako onse mwandinyasa. Ndikanakutukwanani koma ndakumverani chisoni. Muchokedi mwatiwonongera dziko. Very unpatriotic thieves. Go to Goliati and Mpumulo wa Mbava or whatever you call it.
The Japanese are very respectful people. That’s why they didn’t tell you to your face how disappointed they are that you wasted their money building this piece of shit
The Ugly Airport terminal that was added is not up to standard. It should be pulled down. I ma sure Dr Banda in turning in his grave in disgust.
Boy appreciate when someone has provided you a running toilet than your usual pit latrine. By the way your leaders and their relations are busy abusing your tax that would have added to that grant and make it look much better. Just shut up and talk to your leaders. This is your country and not Japan. Stop thinking Iike a toddler
The Original Kamuzu was Far much better structured Just look at Tanzania Airport Mugulufi Malawi can do Better
