If this concession goes through, by the Creator of the Heavens and the earth, this sell of is going to bring the Malawian (DPP led) Nation to shambles and will incur a wrath. A wrath surely a intend to be part off to the DPP Governement and they will see it most clear coming!

A good deal indeed especially on the habilitation of Blantyre-Nsanje rail which will assist in the transportation of Goods from the new port to inland.

Thats why you are supposed to involve procurement professionals in such deals. You have the ODPP office in place, why crying now that there was lack of negotiating skills on your part? Be serious you civil servants, some of us pay you salaries even if you are a ministry Director through my monthly PAYE. I have also a lot friends in the govt ministryies whom we attended same class and are working as Procurement Officers (MCIPS) why not utilise them.

Having a procurement qualification does not equal being sane enough. Look at how most corruptions have been perpetuated by people with remarkable qualifications including Lawers, Procurers, Accountans, t Administrators ETC. Definitely the deal tells you that some people benefited from the arrangement therefore the issue of poor negotiating skills is just a face saving
