PRIVATE COMPANIES ROLE IN UPSETTING OUR TERMS OF TRADE

Kenya continues to service its loans denominated in foreign currency with great displeasure. This means, we are purchasing foreign currencies inorder to pay back loans.

while it is fashionable to blame the government, and popular really, it is worth noting that private companies too are worsening an already unfortunate situation.

For instance, Tatu city engaged a zimbabwe tech firm to install digital meters for monitoring water and electricity usage of residents.

This is laughable.

Zimbabwe company you said??

come on.

How hard would it have been to get a Kenyan company to do it? Why should we pay foreign companies for jobs that kenyans can do?

Dont tell me the zimbabwean was cheaper. Taxes prevent it to be so.

Dont tell me expertise. Kenyans wamesoma.

Just tell me it was a boardroom kurudisha mkono or hushing of interests.


and i will keep my silence.
