Hakuna....but at the same time
Barabara kisii zilijengwa na Kibaki

Na most development are private infact kisii imepita Kisumu kwa number of Banks and Malls

Wakikuyu walipo hama kisumu 2007 na Homabay nk

Pia wasomali walisonge kisii

Pia waliokuwa wanahepa Eldoret 2007 walienda aitha Nakuru ama Kisii

Na Kule marekani baada ya wakikuyu na waluo, wakisii ndio wengi kuliko kabila nyingine sana sana minnesota


In short all am saying in a chinese gake over they will have to prove that their money was actually used in whatever region they are taking control and kisii will have an easy time in that!!

China has invested billions upto 112bn$ kule in elephant projects na hawawezi lipa sasa most government and private sector businesses zinauzwa kwa mchina at a very low price forcing people back to their rural areas

Even China attempted on an entire ministry take-over !!

Its a mess.....they start small but they will eventuall buy all major companies private and the shift to parastatals ...you cant invade china because it has a 2.6mn people army spending 220bn$

unless you do it as a continent ....which ia highly unlikely

You hate Magufuli because of measures like this which going to deteriorating your comfort zone, South Korea engineers are in Mwanza to build one massive ship for Victoria Lake which will be of its kind in all the countries across the lake, will have the capacity of carrying more than 2100+ passengers + cars and so many tons of stuff this will be circulating in Kisumu, Uganda and Tanzania like no one cares. We are defeating the regional economy by all means ASAP.

What year are you talking about. Initial proposals are usually way off the final price.
The greenfield project budget had risen to $1 billion by the time it was cancelled. Pretty soon the $176m would have risen.

Countries do not become air travel hubs because of their airports, but because of their economy.
You can build a very magnificent airport but if you're still an LDC, it will remain a ghost airport.
The reason JKIA is the main travel hub in East Africa is because Nairobi is the main city in East Africa. From conferences, to the UN, to business... the list is endless.

THEY WILL FIND IT HARD TO UNDERSTAND.

Kenya has been ranked third in Sub-Saharan Africa in the 2017 World Bank Ease of Business Index, moving 12 places to a global ranking of 80 out of 190 countries.

The World Bank Report, which assesses among other factors the processes required to start a business, placed Kenya third in Sub-Saharan Africa behind Mauritius and Rwanda.

Industrialization Cabinet Secretary Adan Mohammed attributed the improvement to reforms in starting a business, dealing with construction permits, getting electricity, access to credit, paying taxes, and trading across borders.

“The Improvements are driven by efforts by the government and the private sector in improving the business climate. Kenya has delivered the highest number of business-related reforms on the African continent for the second year running,” he said.

The country has moved 53 positions over the last three years and the new position is Kenya’s best performance in the last 15 years.

Last year, Kenya moved 21 places to position 92 globally making it the third most improved economy for two years in a row.

In the 2016 report, Kenya was ranked 113 having moved 28 positions from the previous year.

The target for Kenya now is to attain position 50 by 2022.

“Our improvement starts today for next year. Our target is to be in the top 50 countries in the world in the next couple of years, and we put that target three years ago,” CS Mohammed said in a press address at the National Social Security Fund (NSSF) building.

The report has of course caught the eye of President Uhuru Kenyatta who has expressed pride over the improved performance.

“Proud that Kenya has moved up 12 spots to 80 in the 2018 World Bank global Doing Business rankings. We were ranked 92 last year and 136 in 2013.

“This is our country’s best performance in 15 years. Cumulatively, Kenya has moved up 56 spots over the past 3 years,” said Uhuru.

He added: “Being ranked as 3rd most reformed country in Sub-Saharan Africa shows that Government efforts to enhance the business environment are bearing significant fruit.”
