Mia promises job creation: ‘Moving Malawi forward with MCP’
Malawi Congress Party (MCP) vice president Muhammad Sidik Mia has promised that his party will shake up things when elected to govern in 2019 for effective in service delivery and job creation is on the top priority.
He said this when he distributed MCP clothes to students who study close to MCP offices at Chichiri in Blantyre on Monday.
Mia said Malawians were tired of the current leadership which he accused of “failing to put in place favourable policies for the youth.”
He said once voted into power in 2019, MCP commit to creating at million jobs over five years “to ensure our people, particularly our youth, can secure and maintain good jobs that enable them to enjoy a decent life.”
Mia added: “We will concentrate investments in the sectors that are growth-oriented and job creating.”
The elections scheduled for May 21, 2019, will elect a president, members of parliament, and local councillors.
According to the Malawi Electoral Commission, the poll will be held under the theme “Consolidating Malawi Democracy through the Ballot.”
Malawi’s influential Catholic bishops have called for a “new era”, saying the country needs a “change of direction” to reverse the situation.
“We mean a total change in the way of doing things other than business as usual,” the bishops said in an April 29 pastoral letter.
The bishops said Malawi’s citizens have a duty to elect people they trust to implement their pre-election promises, or those who have demonstrated that they delivered on their promises while in previous leadership positions.
As a guide to voters, the bishops listed a number of qualities the electorate should be looking for in a leader, including honesty, selflessness, respect, decisiveness and a willingness to step down.

Yes, Hon Mia, it is possible to create jobs when MCP takes over government next year provided development projects are prioritized. First and foremost we will need a stable and robust power supply since electricity is the engine for growth in all economic sectors, particularly industry which in turn creates jobs.
Easily said than done. We need to look critically all Malawians from both sections of the political divide how we create jobs in a wholistic approach. Our population growth is currently at unsustainable growth and putting pressure on social amneties i.e. schools, medical service delivery,water and pressure on the environment-massive deforestation. We need seriously to look at how as a nation we are to address all these ills in the next ten years. I know it is easy to govern the mostly illiterate masses on quick fix promises but Malawi needs solutions to these ills now otherwise we will still be going round and round politicking and recycling politicians without a solution to these ills facing us.
Am told even the MCP cloth was bought on credit from Mapeto, the owner is complaining about his payment, very sad indeed.
Even microphone Ya PP( people’s party) the one MIA is using!! ZA VUTAAAA!! Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahhaha MIC YO BWEREKA!! Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
Afune asafune MCP ikulowa mu Boma mu chaka cha 2019. Tatopa nazo zigebenga izi.
malawi needs young fresh minds of a combination of wise n intelligent boys n girls in the diaspora n the same at home .it is an undisputed fact that our kids abroad have a better analysis of what happening home n how to turn it around.I beg to differ on the belief that Malaw’s ills needs someone within Malawi,our colleagues in the diaspora have been exposed to different esperiences which if applied correctly can prove fruitful in building a new Malawi.Job Creation by hon Mia is a good move but implementing that rhetoric into a policy that’s exactly where our nation fails.It’s not easy creating jobs in a world where pple are getting laid off around the globe But it’s possible n needed,it’s not easy shaking things up in a landlocked nation where economic growth is slower than population growth n it’s not that easy creating jobs in a country where the majority are still illiterate n some are not willing taking the lead to fight for themselves.People would love to hear such promises n wait for the govt to deliver that in a free handouts style,a situation nonexistence n then next it’s disappointment labelling Mia as our next Messiah who failed.I think a better solution to turnaround Malawi rest in our boys living abroad,their level of understanding should be unique
U lying big time. Our solution is not in youths in diaspora. Poti mulimunja ndi ya muziganiza ife amene tilikuno ngopepera munama. We are brilliant and survive hardships than those who run away and only thinking of coming home as presidents. Ntchito zomwe 90% a inu uko mugwira zomvetsa chisoni
Real MCP you are correct: mia has already lost his farm/ lost his cold storage/ selling his house/ taken a big loan from FMB and other banks/ his Superior shop taken away/ very sad.
Mia my brother, these MCP guys will eat all your money and throw you away soon, you have wasted all your time and money with a party that can never win, even if you are gambling that if you come into power you will get Government contracts to reimburse your money, it won’t work cause these guys in MCP will never allow it. You will come out a poor man, MARK MY WORDS!
Mia is good than the dull professor who is failing to tackle blackouts, dpp is a walking devil
What are the policies and strategy that will lead to job creation?
Well done Bwana Mia…..Msowoya was just staying idle osapangitsa misonkhano
Apa cadet watha ndithu. MCP moto kuti buuuuuuuu. Mia kunyamula South mbambande pita chitsogolo Mia boma likubwerera kwao ili anyani awa mitchona iyi zavuta kobasi tikufuna eniake a Malawi alamulire basi A Chakwera.
what has changed is that he has joined a party that is will to do that.
DZUKANI AMALAWI,MWANANYANIAN & HUTTON,these are CADETS who are given airtime to comment NONSENSE.Has Mia ever been president?He is saying he will create jobs in his capacity as Vice President 2 0 0. 2 0 0 9. 20 . 2019. Yes so called DzukanMalawi those promises never materialized because he wasn’t the president.Blame the leaders of that periods.Mungothatu mabundle mfundo mulibe kikkkkkkk
My records indicate that the same Mia made similar promises but in a much bolder way in 2004 and were repeated in 2009. During those instances he was in very influential cabinet positions. Those promises never materialised and instead youth unemployment or unemployment in general got worse, development stalled and governance suffered. The question is Mr Mia, what has changed? We would appreciate if you apologise to Malawians first for causing the damage dating back from 12 years ago and then urge you to repent. If you truly are a man of Allah then you’d humble yourself and do the right thing….confess yiur sins and apologise. Please introspect and not just think of “killing” the nation which you purport to love.
If this is the case, then why not support CHILIMA.? Don’t just be here to criticize but rather do highlight the need for change in leadership to develop our country. Malawi is now a disgrace and in shambolic state simply because MALAWIANS don’t know what we want. How could you vote for Mutharika again who has destroyed our country…
Evidently, the only jobs Mia is best at creating are cattle herders. Just look no farther than Chikhwawa.
Apatu zaonetseraru kuti nsalu ya Kongilesiyi ilibe chikoka ku mwera. Mpaka kuipititsa m’makwalala oitanidwa ataikana.
In sharp contrast, I once saw people scrambling for DPP material at Mount Pleasant Total filling station and they almost mobbed Mchacha because people wanted more DPP materials.
Manifesto ya kongilesi ndi mtundu wa nsalu yaoyo. Akangowina, Amalawi tiyembekezele magazi monga mwa chikhalidwe chao. AMALAWI. Chenjerani. SAPITA KAWIRI.
inu nzeru mulibe, do you know why the journalist has decided to use this picture? And which Malawians are you warning? There some Malawians who support your tribal group, other support MCP, other PP, UDF and SCK movement. You think all these have got snail brain. Ukumva kupweteka iwe ndi MCP
Boma iloooooo more fire MCP amaona ngati zikhala zophweka chilima akachokaaaa MCP zogwa ndi chiswe izi tolani basiiii chilima ndi anzake wakugwilirani ntchitoo kalee
More and more revalations!!! Mwaona microphone akewo. Zinthu za Ku PP zayamba kutuluka. Atsikana ngati mumasowa zikolopa ndi zimenezo mwazipeza, kagwiritseni ntchito.
Ma office a MCP akubwekerawo ndi a Admarc. Inali marketing house ya a Admarc imeneyo koma Kongilesi inalanda mbali inayi CCAM ikulanda Kwenengwe farm. Dzukani a Admarc, tengani nyumba yanu. Zikumvekanso kuti ndalama zomwe Mia akupeleka Ku MCP amupatsa nyumba imeneyi ngati chikole ndi cholinga choti ngati katapila wakeyo sabwezedwa azatenge nyumbayi.
Komande mukhaulatu akumvesani pain Mia
This is just a campaign rhetoric and you have not said anything tangible which will lead to job creation. Ndalama zimene ukupamgira campaign sizibwerera and after the elections MCP will kick you out of the party.
Do you even know what the word rhetoric mean?
Munyatu MCP 2019 boma
Ntchito zake zosenda zikopa za ng’ombe?
Kumva kuwawatu that MCP is becoming popular each passing day. What can a DPP cadet say apart from feeling pain in his mind
