The fact is we should be ashamed of ourselves for failing to make any real strides with FISP from its early days to present its a shame that only 25 percent goes to those who really need it while the rest is just consumed by those who can otherwise manage on their own. projects such as these are not meant for middle to upper class people but in malawi this is the story of many project the poor get nothing mostly because some top guys pocket everything. im happy the UK is pulling out we would do the same if… Read more »

Well done UK for protecting UK taxpayers money which has only been blundered here.
Let the UK citizens enjoy their salaries instead of deducting as tax for international Aid.
International Aid what. Let the internationals fend for themselves. If they can afford to
keep in houses million of money they are rich they can support themselves.

Dont blame the British, they are sensing that Chaponda will be brought back to Agriculture Ministry to plunder resources in harder way. If Government was serious to curb corruption, APM should have made Massi Minister of Agriculture, not Deputy. The move is an indication that APM still wants Chaponda back as Minister because he is hoping that the court will free him. Why arrest Uladi as a suspect and not Chaponda when he is equally a suspect? If you read between two lines Chaponda is not alone. I will rule Gambia for a billion years.

Donor dependence has been a curse to Malawi. It has given us false hope, undermined our autonomy, frustrated our development, kept us dependent like infants, sent us sleeping on the job, blinded us from reality of life, killed our creative thinking and made us poorer than we were before. It is time the donor left us to fend for ourselves and learn to deal with our demons that feeds on corruption.

UK joined us and found us already implementing FISP. They can as well go. We shall continue with the programme anyway. After all, all they were doing was to simply print coupons hahaha. Bye bye UK.

We have had mmwenye being caught in possession of about US$600k plus gold bars etc. GBP700k is very little money that our government should invest in this subsidy if it was beneficial to the country. But the truth is, we should instead set up a grants system as is the case in brasil and south africa where the most vulnerable families are offered say K10,000 per month. The electronic payment has to be activated for food and agriculture shops to avoid misusing the resources in alcohol consumption.
