The Auditor General Stephenson Kamphasa has rejected a report in The Daily Times that he told the joint meeting of...
The report as presented in this forum seems to comprehensively present critical issues affecting the country. On the agricultural front however, I have this to add: mere increase in productivity cannot improve smallholder farmers’ income. Efforts aimed at improving productivity of the agricultural sector especially smallholder farms should move together with improving important institutions which help to enhance rural farm incomes. Such institutions like proper marketing of agricultural commodities are a necessary prerequisite for attainment of improved farm income. On this feat, there should be a proper mechanism to ensure that the produced farm commodity is not snatched by vendors… Read more »
I will sight on entrepreneur ship, apart ft the usual cry on lack of capital,the other silent hindrance factor to us young entrepreneurs is the high cost of rentals in urban centres. most of these buildings in our cities are owned by foreigners, they charge rent per square meter in us dollars,on average most buildings in the city centre in Lilongwe will require you to pay mk800,000 monthly rental on a quarterly basis,plus one month rental ad surity.thus On your first day of occupying a room you will need a whooping mk3,200.000. now think of furniture’s and fittings,another two million… Read more »
This has not come as a surprise because Dr Chakwera has been telling the nation the same message but government through their spokespersons have been elusive and refusing to accept the reality. I hope they will now believe what Dr Chakwera was saying and concede that APM has failed the nation bug time. Shame on all those dunderheads who defend what they do not know. They will be answerable one day.
In Malawi you can feel, smell, see, hear and even taste poverty. As much as every individual is expected to work to reduce their own poverty but the people entrusted to create conducive environment for reducing the same have not applied themselves fully. How on earth would you grow when someone else is busy draining the small gains that we have achieved as a country? And some leader keeps on defending them. We are not serious with matters of development of the country. As long as we smile to corruption next time the head count will be at 60%.

YOU CANT RUN A COUNTRY AND ARE F*****G YOUR OWN PPL UP
Hopefully Hon Dausi is preparing to reject these findings and attribute them to the opposition, cashgate, etc
The definition of insanity is continuously doing the same thing but hopeful of getting a different result. Malawi continues to elect into office thieves and rogue leaders. As a country, we believe in laziness -hoping that we will get some breakthrough without working hard. We continue to think that by practicing tribalism, we will progress through our tribal connections when there is power in diversity. We are a people that are full of deep jealous against each other’s progress such that we would go to a great length to bring others down. We believe in pretending that we are religious… Read more »
They seem to have interviewed flies too. Why is it not presenting good progress?
And yet a few individuals like Chaponda can afford to stash away millions of kwachas in their homes Some can even spend millions buying popularity.
The report says the downward trend has been very noticeable since 2010. We know who has been in the Driving Seat: DPP
A very sad revelation but nothing new really. Food for thought for everyone who loves this country. The country has not moved forward for too many years now and yet some people want us to believe that the country is developing. Malawians, we have wasted our time for too long. We always blame it on our weather, our history (one party), our ….. etc. But the truth is that we are not serious with anything. The country is moving backward. Food for thought. Let’s begin to have serious-minded leaders. This is my honest take.
