Competing Visions of Development: JK vs JKN

[Companero]

"We should not lessen our efforts to get the money we really need, but it would be more appropriate for us to spend time in the villages showing the people how to bring about development through their own efforts rather than going on so many long and expensive journeys abroad in search of development money.This is the real way to bring development to everybody in the country."

- The Arusha Declaration, 1967​

 

[Mzee Mwanakijiji]

well.. vision ya Nyerere is very simple.. maendeleo ni ya watu; kwa upande wa Kikwete maendeleo ni ya vitu. Wakati Nyerere alikuwa anaona maendeleo yanapimwa kwa kuangalia maisha ya watu yanavyobadilishwa na kunufaika na matumizi ya elimu, sayansi na teknolojia Kikwete na wenzake wamefikia mahali pa kuendeleza vitu ili wasema tumeongeza vitu.

Ni kutokana na ukweli huu utaona kuwa wakati Nyerere aliona elimu iwe ni ufunguo wa maisha kwamba mtu akipata elimu imsaidie kubadilisha maisha yake na jamii yake leo hii elimu inachukuliwa kwa ajili yake yenyewe. Hivyo, badala ya kutilia mkazo ubora wa elimu inayotolewa (kama wakati wa Mwalimu), serikali ya CCM chini ya Kikwete inatilia mkazo wingi wa sehemu za elimu. Hivyo, kina Kikwete watajitamba kuwa wameongeza shule, vyuo n.k (kitu ambacho ni kweli) lakini inapokuja swali la ubora wanashindwa kuuoneshea matokeo yake Kikwete, Mahiza na wenzao ati "wanashangazwa na matokeo mabaya ya mitihani". Kiasi kwamba Mahiza amefikia mahali pa kudai kuwa matokeo mabaya ya mitihani hayahusiani na ubora wa elimu inayotolewa!

Ukweli ni kuwa maendeleo mara zote lazima yawe ya watu! Kwa kadiri watu wanavyokuwa huru zaidi, na wakijapatia uwezo zaidi wa kuyamudu mazingira yao na kuyarahisisha hivyo ndivyo unaweza kuona maendeleo yakiwa kazini.

Mfano mzuri; Mkapa anasifiwa kwa kujenga uwanja wa kimataifa mkubwa kwa gharama ya shilingi bilioni 50(haya ni maendeleo ya vitu); wakati huo huo kilomita chache kutoka hapo kuna kina mama wanarundikana katika chumba kimoja baada ya kujifungulia kwa kukosa huduma muhimu yenye gharama ya chini bilioni moja. CCM itatuonesha uwanja wa mpira na kutaka tuwashukuru, lakini sisi tukiwaonesha hospitali ya Temeke wao wanasema "wameanza mchakato wa kutafuta fedha za kupatia ufumbuzi tatizo la wodi ya wazazi"!

2010???

JK vs JKN?

Jakaya Kikwete vs Juma Kassim Nature? still Juma Kassim Nature kamuacha mbali sana Kikwete, kila mwaka anatoa vibao kashinda mpaka tuzo za Africa!

There is now way you can compare Kikwete and Nyerere!


"[A] man is developing himself when he grows, or earns, enough to provide decent conditions for himself and his family; he is not being developed if someone gives him these things."

Tutamkumbuka sana Nyerere kwa kweli.,inasikitisha kuwa zama hizi maadui wa Watanznia wapo miongoni mwa Watanzania tofauti na zamani ambapo adui mkubwa alikuwa ni mkoloni.,eeh Mungu mwenyezi fungua macho na masikio ya viongozi wetu wa sasa ili wajifunze kutoka katika busara na falsafa za Mwalimu Nyerere.

It is stupid to rely on money as the major instrument of development when we know only too well that our country is poor. It is equally stupid, indeed it is even more stupid, for us to imagine that we shall rid ourselves of our poverty through foreign financial assistance rather than our own financial resources- Arusha Declaration, 1967

Yaani akina January Makamba ndio wana post hizi safari zake kama quotes??

Quotes are due to your own theories, beliefs and principles, in short quotes show that who you are. Jk hana anachokiamini wala hatujui anaamini nini.

akina Kikwete ndio wanatuletea quotes kama hizi

Few things to consider, any form of socialism doesn't work. Mwalimu needs a lot of credit though because his version of ujamaa didn't improve maendeleo ya nchi but it definitely enforced amani, upendo, na umoja wa watanzania. Ujamaa wa Urusi was more interested in keeping the power to themselves and controlled means of uchumi as a tool to oppress people rather than to be shared with people. Ujamaa wetu under Mwalimu was truly for the people. Bahati mbaya tu, ujamaa kama mfumo wa serikali have proven to fail. People need right incentives to wake up and work everyday. 70s oil crisis, and Kagera war did create setbacks but themselves aren't sufficient reasons for failure of ujamaa.

During Mwalimu's time, bongo received most aid from China than any African country. Despite of cold war, Mwalimu was able to enjoy good relationship with US--which was unheard off. And that is a testimony of his good leadership.

Kikwete on the other hand, I personally like the fact that he travels and meet different leaders. Global economy is more intertwined than ever. The more bilateral trade agreements you made, the more prosperous is your country. The age of being isolated are over, and Jakaya is making enormous efforts to create a network of different partners that will be appreciated later after he is gone. But he has incredibly big and ineffective goverment, filled with incompetent people (Mustafa Mkullo kwa mfano). And bunge that is spend so much time bickering about Richmond rather than improving elimu, afya, and other ishu muhimu. I think bunge need to raise the level of debate, and that will happen only if young people humu ndani will be willing kutoka kwenye kazi zao nzuri huko ughaibuni na kwenda kugombea ubunge nyumbani.

watu warudi vipi hiwapo wajamaa wanapinga dual citizenship ni pathetics tuu.

Na kwa nini kusafiri kila siku badala ya kukaa na kusimamia maendeleo yako. ana kazi ya kujenga nchi na si kujengewa nchi na sijui waturuki ambao ni njaa tu if you ask me. Honestly what can they offer us.

Tatizo lenu baada ya kuangaika na mbinu za kujisaidia kutwa kuamka kutafuta watu wa kuwasaidia. How right is a white man umaskini ni tabia?

well.. vision ya Nyerere is very simple.. maendeleo ni ya watu; kwa upande wa Kikwete maendeleo ni ya vitu. Wakati Nyerere alikuwa anaona maendeleo yanapimwa kwa kuangalia maisha ya watu yanavyobadilishwa na kunufaika na matumizi ya elimu, sayansi na teknolojia Kikwete na wenzake wamefikia mahali pa kuendeleza vitu ili wasema tumeongeza vitu......

Safi MKJJ,

Nakumbuka Nyerere akisafiri kwenda nchi za ughaibuni na akirudi anataka kile alichokiona na kinawezekana kufanyika hapa kifanyike kwa maaendeleo ya Nchi hii i mean vile viwanda kama vya sido,Mutex etc.

Kikwete na wenzake wameendeleza nini chakusema jamani,na kuboresha wameboresha nini barabara za Dar?? au? kuna Lunch za Mabuki kule mwanza mpaka leo hakuna kictu mifugo ime tupwa kanda ya ziwa ambako kunasemekana kuan mifugo mingi, nilisikia kiwanda cha nyama Shinyanga kinaborshwa sijui mpaka sasa kama kimeisha anza ku operate au? ati Lunch ziko Bukoba na Tanga sasa na huo ni msaaada na NGO ndio inauongoza na si serikali, me kwangu bado sijaona serikali ya kikwete imepiga hatu ya kuimalisha uchumi kwa kiasi fulani cha watanzania esp kwa kipato

...Ni kutokana na ukweli huu utaona kuwa wakati Nyerere aliona elimu iwe ni ufunguo wa maisha kwamba mtu akipata elimu imsaidie kubadilisha maisha yake na jamii yake leo hii elimu inachukuliwa kwa ajili yake yenyewe. Hivyo, badala ya kutilia mkazo ubora wa elimu inayotolewa (kama wakati wa Mwalimu), serikali ya CCM chini ya Kikwete inatilia mkazo wingi wa sehemu za elimu. Hivyo, kina Kikwete watajitamba kuwa wameongeza shule, vyuo n.k (kitu ambacho ni kweli) lakini inapokuja swali la ubora wanashindwa kuuoneshea matokeo yake Kikwete, Mahiza na wenzao ati "wanashangazwa na matokeo mabaya ya mitihani". Kiasi kwamba Mahiza amefikia mahali pa kudai kuwa matokeo mabaya ya mitihani hayahusiani na ubora wa elimu inayotolewa!

Watuambie hao wana CCM wano iandaaaa Ilani ya CCM wame achieve nini for 5yrs ya Kikwete wasiniambia ati hizo yeboyebo ndio wamepiga hatua ati sitokubaliana nao hata kidogo hizo yebo yebo hazina vitabu wala sidhani zote zina Library au Lab to be honestly hat walimu sio wa kiwango saaana nio wale wa form six na waliopewa six months fast track ile wakafundishe hizo yebo yebo secondary. Bado serikali hajatuonyesha kuwa imepiga hatua jamani ELIMU yatu haina Mustakabari wake wa kitaifa kwani kila kiongozi ajae huja na sera zake za kuongoza Wizara ya elimu na akija mwingine atasema huyo hajui alikosea nae ataweka mawazo yake na hao wataalamu wake hapo kweli twajenga au twabomoa kwanini pasiundwe tume na tujue nini kifanyike for future. Mfano mzuri ni kwa Kagame -Rwanda wame panga kubadirisha mfumo wao mzima wa elimu kutoka Kifaransa na kwenda kwa Ki engeleza na hii ni 14yrs future plan sasa hapa kwetu mmmh sijui hii elimu ni ya kusaidia maendeleo ya nchi au individuals development?
