There is government technical college in the north. Only govt technical colleges are to benefit from ADB funds hence no benefit for the north, that is Bingu’s plans.
At least one govt technical college in the north is greatly needed.

The problem with Malawians is of commenting with already politically inclined minds. The issue at hand is about the state of our technical colleges and not about DPP, MCP or UDF. The committee members that came up with the report comprises MPs from all political parties and they came up with the findings as presented. The key issue is that our technical conditions are in poor condition which should be a concern to all those with upright brains! Students need to live and learn in a conducive where the infrastructure is update to date. Similarly, material and equipment should be… Read more »

If they have not done as much as we hoped for; it means they have failed. But there is no future in the past, we can correct the mess and perfect our comm. Collages for the better of the nation. MP Chakwera is 100% right that the proglam was rushed. Poeple don’t try to forget OVOP, how much money was spent? But how enfective is OVOP? Its good kuti asanasolore wina in the name of community collages, tizisiye kapena tikonze. That is for the good of poor Malawian son/daughter. Iwowa ana awo pano sangaphuzire mmabwinjamu, koma akagwa pamsana paNjovu mpamene… Read more »

MP Chakwera is right, the government needs to plan well by putting all resources in time. I also agree that MP’s should be talking about reorganising the Technical colleges otherwise it will be just a name.

Analyst,
Kupsya mtima chomcho bwanji? I thought the issue here about improving our technical education. Chakwera has ably articulated some gaps in the systems. Nothing wrong, that!
All in all, you’re not passing to the title of analyst. Analysts are more sober and analytical than what you often are.

ki ki ki the lighetr side of life . . . But it hurts when people just talk n talk n talk. I hope or wish you had seen the MGDS; the ideas are just too brilliant to have come from Malawi. But very little is being done on the ground. How many policies do we need to produce before we start implementing them? A a, we are not doing justice to our country.

Same thing happened During Bingu’s era. Kumanga doko kenako kafukufuku ati pachiuprofesa.

Even in our universities infrastructure is dilapidated, does this mean our universities have failed? That’s the problem with partisan politics, it turns clever and smart people into dunderheads faster than anybody realizes. Once people join politics they cease to be viewed as professionals. Think of all those educationists, geologists, engineers, medics, etc, they no longer think as professionals.

It’s true Technical college need alot of preparation. Some skills is more expensive than diplomas or degree and some of them need alot of resources and time e.g Toolmaking and cnc, fitting and turning, millwright, instrumentation, boilermaking. Government need to be well prepared because its not training them but also they must be sent to companies for some years
