Indeed it is a good news, but it’s important to analise before, because others they do it propositerly forgetting that Malawi is for all. Don’t use politic to vandalise things, I will be happy to see Malawi developing calmly.

We must commend the BCA for the effort of upgrading some of the mentioned roads. You should have bylaws that BCA should have its own police. Becoz what happens is, BCA hires police to chase/ catch vendors around the city, the police is paid, when yot catch the vendor, s/he is handed over to police, when they take that vendor to court, and the court slap him/her with a fine, its the police that benefit double, or the police officer will ask that vendor to give him something to release him. City Assemblies loose double even tripple becoz they also… Read more »

This is GOOD NEWS indeed….the Chipembere Highway has never had a status until this announcement. Having said that, I really do not know what the bye laws state regarding vandalism. Many are times vehicles ram into street light poles and they never get repaired. Yet all those vehicles finally register the accident with traffic police and I would assume they are insured. Can BCC not recover costs of replacing street lights in such events through the insurer of the involved vehicle/ car?
ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT STREET LIGHTS WOULD TREMENDOUSLY IMPROVE SAFETY AND SECURITY!!

Good news, but apart from vandalism, who will pay for the electricity? What does a rehabilitated streetlight system helps without a buget to run it!.
Best examples are the Mzuzu street lights! This hopeless useless city council even fails to run it’s internal affairs! It seems: To hide in the dark have its advantages tooo….!

THREE SUGGESTIONS TO BCC: 1. DONT JUST TALK ABOUT LOOKING AFTER STREETS LIGHTS FACILITIES ON NYASA TIMES. PLEASE GOON AIR. USE TV STATIONS, RADIOS, ETC SO THAT YOU CAN COMMUNICATE TO THE LARGER PUBLIC. 2. BCC SHOULD CONSIDER HAVING ITS OWN POLICE AS OTHER CITIES WE HAVE VISITED DO. THESE POLICE OFFICERS WILL BE PATROLLING AND BELIEVE ME, IT WILL HELP MINIMIZE CRIMINAL ACTIVITIES. AROUND MIDNIGHT OUR STREETS ARE COMPLETELY DESERTED AND THIS IS WHY THIEVES TAKE ADVANTAGE TO START VANDALIZING PROPERTY. WE NEED A 24 HOUR CITY OF BLANTYRE. LIGHTS AND SECURITY IS THE WAY TO GO. 3. IDENTIFY… Read more »
