I agree, but do they get the right advise! If they do and igore such advise, then one needs to stand up and say it in public. If that is repeated, after sometimes things will change for the better.
They do get the right advice. The problem is on the implementation of the decisions.
Few example, we have outstanding economists (or any other proffesionals in other cadres) who are are found valuable in consultancy but whilst of Tanzania. These same economists advice our very same govt, but they don't get heard.
In understanding our leaders and their priorities, we have to look at the private sector is doing. In private sector, all the corporates are after results, and immediate results. They do all that is supposed to be done, from forecasting to daily management et la. We all know that most of the work force is still at large, Tanzanians. Then why are same Tanzanians, in private capacities do wonders but not when in govt ?
We all know that for a country to progress, certain things must be given highest priority e.g. development of infrastructure. If the govt had put emphasis and inject massive capital in infrastructure then we would be far from now.
We have seen that the latest development on mining. The govt has failed to start levying the proposed taxes, for reasons known to them, even after several committees being formed, let alone the public outcry. We all know that capitalist are hard to deal with but they can always negotiate on a win-win situation. This is purely corporate norm.
ATCL: We saw the joint management of ATCL and SAA. The company ran successfully, at least on the operations point of view. But immediately after SAA pulled out, we have put a management that is not responsive to changes, that bends things to individual selfishness and not of the public. These are the kind of leaders we have. But i am 100% sure we have very competent proffessionals who are capable of running ATCL and at a profit.
Bottom line, it all starts with the leaders. Leaders are adviced on the viable decisions to take, but the decision-making lies to them. If the leaders want to change TZ from rock bottom country to high-flying country, then yes, we can.
