You don't have a clue, if you're looking for imperialism you need to look at the western nations. The upper stage of capitalism is imperialism but China is performing a regulated capitalism. Do take my word for it and do research and find that out for yourself. There's a concise catalog of the imperialism you might like to peruse it at your pleasure.Intelligence is attested in analysis of the development issues not just claiming bragging rights like you promise industrialization while rooting to Chinese imperialism!
That's bordering on slanderous.Another comic blame game!
Time will prove one of us right! I'm confident within five years the Tanzania will be better at the point of delivery and paid for by taxes, hence growth economically. So I don't feel the need to keep repeating it to you, because as with the original point of contention when faced with evidence to the contrary you're unwilling to change your mind.You conceded the nation is taking the wrong direction but refused to blame ccm
No personal attacks, seems a rather simple minded way of looking at it. What's your point?but now you have crawled back to personal attacks incongruous with the issues at hand!
I reply in response to your comment. Show it, instead of spewing pseudo-grammatical bullshit.Back to insulting business when you have been bamboozled with tell tales of overwhelming facts
What's your best alternative political party? Do Tanzania factions really have such clearly stated policy proposals? You simply don't find anything close to this level of clarity in Tanzania politics. So what's your suggestion to the current government?Now it is about me and not the burning policy issues at stake?
Especially at the end concerning the buster. I wish you could do for yourself.Looking for de-westernizer?
Tanzanians know it's no easy task to secure jobs and growth in a highly competitive, volatile and uncertain medium global economy. Despite the challenges and the naysayers, we are going to make it happen.

Economic Overview
The overall macroeconomic performance remains strong with a high rate of growth and a low rate of inflation. Real grows domestic product (GDP) growth is projected at 7% for 2015. From the supply side, the main drivers of growth recently has been several fast growing sectors, such as construction, transport and financial services. Inflation has gradually declined over the past 30 months due to tight monetary policy and falling international energy and food prices. While inflation has slightly increased recently largely driven by increase in domestic food prices and possible ragged effects of sharp depreciation of the local currency during the first half of 2015, the level remains relatively low at 5.6% in February 2016.
The external sector of the economy improved following a declining current account deficit that stood at 8.1% of GDP in 2015. Export growth driven by regional trade in manufacture goods and reduced imports bill from cheaper imported oil contributed to this decline.
Although revenue performance in 2015/16 has been better than in the past few years, shortfall has been experienced in the first quarter of the FY driven largely by weak implementation of the new 2015 VAT ACT. The new government is committed to 4.2% of GDP fiscal deficit target for 2015/16. The government faces additional expenditure needs, equivalent to 0.7% of GDP, coming from expenditures carried over from last FY, payment of government arrears to TANESCO, and additional fiscal space need for provision of free basic education and expansion of higher education students' loans program (new presidential initiatives).
Social Context
Approximately 28.2% of the population lived below the poverty line in 2012; a reduction from 34% in 2007. During the 2007/12 period, there were improvements in living conditions, access to basic education, health and nutrition and, labor force participation in non agriculture employment. Nevertheless, these benefits were not distributed equitably. Inequality has increased between urban and rural population and approximately 12 million Tanzanians are still living in poverty.
Development Challenges
Tanzania's main challenges include addressing infrastructure bottlenecks, improving the business environment, increasing agricultural productivity and value addition, improving service delivery to build a healthy and skilled workforce, and managing urbanizations. The country also has a youthful labor force growing by approximately 800,000 every year and needs to increase the private sector's role in employment creation for them.
The new administration has outlined among its priorities; increasing government revenues and reducing inefficiencies; investment in good health systems; raising education quality; increasing access to water and improving availability to electricity.

My take; Given the international headwinds and fragility, this is an achievement of which we should all be proud. So like the Tanzanian people, we are upbeat and optimistic, even though some Tanzanians are feeling the transition more acutely in some parts of the country than others. We also know we have the opportunity to do more by accessing the largest and fastest growing economy in our own region, namely Kenya.
So why don't you know even a little bit about your own country? I believe that; Not all UKAWA members are null brained "malofa" but show me a null brained and I bet you are showing me a UKAWA member!! Lastly, you're invited to a welcoming beverage [emoji482] for Masunga Maziku. Happy holiday..
That's world bank economic and development report about Tanzania. Do you have yours? Or from any other recognized institution? Stop being an idiot who's focused only on complains. World bank is doing their job by reporting what is happening in the country. This is good news, we want to see the economic impact.When the belly is full it is tempting to presume economic indicators capture the reality on ground where massive unemployment and underemployment threaten to tear the moral fabric of this nation unto shreds!
Complaint? Only in ink and paper we are multiparty democracy but in practice we are one party state. The transition to multiparty democracy remains in tatters after two decades.Being a double standard for what purpose? Only in Tanzania you could get a better government than you deserve and still complain about it.
Typical dictatorial aspirations of only respecting the views you share but disrespectful to dissent!Not we! You may be lay off the politics until your age reaches double digits.
How possible when your boss is canoodling with Chinese imperialism?Especially at the end concerning the buster. I wish you could do for yourself.
Another rant from a belly worshipper!This country has done a lot over the years, the people should take pride in the recognition that the world institution report the success in terms of social context and development challenges that we have. If the people and government get to focus on these positive aspects and demand more of them, Tanzania will be unparalleled in ratings.

Official graft is behind his coronation how then can he bite the very hand that is feeding him with pap stuff?Going by this reply I know I would be wasting my time continuing this conservation. Unfortunately, time is a finite resource and I may not have enough of it.
I'm waist-high in Magufuli's administration at the moment with a continued strata of development series and a potential struggle of corruption in seven months. Because "if we can't kill corruption, corruption will kill Tanzania". I'll certainly mark it down as a priority after the court of mafisadi is completed in the next few (hopefully) months. Bye!
Naked truth brother!The altercation we are witnessing between Dar R.C and his counterpart Mayor is a reminder of constitution failings where overlapping of regional administration is proving not only to be a costly exercise in futility but also an eyesore to efficient and effective public administration.
Dar R.C lacking a job description wallows himself in municipal onus that has nothing to do with him.
Devoid of clear responsibilities has now self-declared a moral compass.
Whether it is prostitution, cholera, and now loitering curbing efforts the Dar R.C thinks it is part of his mysterious job description card!
No wonder Dar Mayor has been relentless to remind the interfering R.C who is really running the City via issuance of ripostes!
If the Magufuli administration is really keen on enduring cost cutting measures doing away with regional and district administration by handing their responsibilities to the democratic and accountable mayoral administrations could be a tiny step in the right direction.
Calling "replacing chapatis with undercooked groundnuts" during management meetings as cost cutting measures not only confirm lack of seriousness but also lack of brain power to resolve government waste.
