Is there any reasons why Nkhata bay secondary school is full of students from Llohmwe belt and half of Nkhotakota with students from Mulanje?
John makes an important point.Regardless of the amount of resources, once the formula for division of resources amongst the regions is done, development should be in the fate of the affected regions without being prone to the whims of the llomwe belt.For example, why is Mulli just destroying the wood in chikangawa for his own personal benefit without sharing with the country?In a federal government, the guys responsible for the region would have the powers to stop him.Similarly, the funds that the country gets from tobacco would go to develop the central region and so would be the proceeds of… Read more »

But to the size of the economy; GDP etc. It’s the economy……!!!!!!!! Another ill-conceived model of federalism often quoted by proponents is Australia’s and Canada’s.
