I think Sorry u are sorry indeed, It seems your argument is baseless, OK u said sugar in RSA cost R16 at present so does Malawi sugar cost Mk16?? If you want comparison it shouldn’t be based on the ratio of 16:900 that is based on your exchange rate but it should be base on what R 16 can buy in SA and what Mk16 can buy in Malawi, then u ‘ll be able to understand the logic why people are complaining. We complain not for the government to give us handout but if there is any economic turn around(… Read more »

There is no positive economic indication in the country,if it is there,then it is for those with money in sacks,pillow-cases,under the beds,cardboard boxes so on and so forth.It is unbelievable for any nation not to tell its people the truth.Our people in the cities and rural areas are living in the earth-hell,while the leaders are living in paradise.It is sad and heart-breaking that the majority of our people whether in cities or villages,cannot afford to feed their families three times a day,while their money is controlled by a handful of greedy and ruthless so-called leaders including the State President himself.SHAME!!!!!!

Good and plausible development for our country. We need inflation to be kept as low as possible to stimulate growth especially in the private sector which is the engine for robust development in an economy

Low inflation does not mean that prices of commodities are low but the frequency of prices changing is low. Our inflation is largely affected by food prices and in this case no one would expect the prices of commodities like maize which is already over priced by ADMARC to go further up. Malawians are continuing to suffer economic hardships; the so called slowed down inflation and increase in the GDP never trickles down to the majority of our population. The positive is only in the economy outlook while the inside outlook is even more negative than before.

Inflation is a language for economics. I have at no point seen immediate positive impacts of inflation to indiviadual malawians. Look in this case; even if economists say inflation has come down to 16.10, prices of commodities continue to rise. For example :sugar the very basic conmodity is from this week selling at K900. How can you then convince locals that economy is doing well. Can you site an example where we saw a positive result of inflation in our economy? It’s just economic imagination for the poor who can’t understand it and later on see it’s impact on their… Read more »
