Battle: Dar es Salaam vs Nairobi

Misukosuko lazima iwepo kwenye biashara na kama ni kweli yana sumu Au lah tutafahamu tu...uzuri mahindi sio nyanya kwamba yataoza msiponunua nyie.....

Tukijiridhisha yana shida tutajirekebisha lakini kama ni Figisu zisizo na mashiko Basi Tutawajibu kiukubwa
Majibu yenu tunayangoja unadhani hatuna plan b na c
 
Now I like your essay, well put, but without facts, a totally skewed opinion presented as facts. Learn to get your facts right before merely spewing a well documented ignorance. I agree with you on building industries n the likes, or wangejenga real estate na kuuza wangefaidika haraka, coz their objective was to generate their own income as a body, industries are good for sub Saharan Africa, however in Kisumu I guess u don't understand how industries were collapsed by Moi's regime; bad politics, kuwakata miguu for opposing him, now ndio zimeanza kufufuliwa, KBL is up and running after many years, port, airport was awakened during Kibaki's Regine, Uhuru is fixing to revive Kicomi, the sisal factory etc. Pia the story surrounding Lake basin mall ume guess tu. Do you know where it is located exactly in Kisumu? Have u been to Kisumu? haijajengwa mahali Kuna masikini, hapo umedanganya, do you know its surroundings?, and in Kenya high end malls hazijengwi penye masikini they look at the potential customers. Do you know Mamboleo area? Which estates are around that place that are in close proximity to the mall? Akina Riat Hills, several estates in Mamboleo, Kenya Re, Migosi, Lolwe, residents here are serious mall shoppers, their shopping is done at United Mall, far away on your way to CBD. Na pia masikini prefer shopping kwa supermarkets in malls coz of their cheaper prices in comparison to retail shops. For now this mall haina anchor tenant, Tuskys were to rent as the anchor tenant but family feuds collapsed the supermarket, I guess Naivas are in the pipeline. The average rent ya nyumba ya hizi estates around the mall Kama unakodisha ni 15k and above, hapo Riat it will be 50k and above. Have stayed in Kisumu, Lolwe estate to be precise, unaeza uliza swali yeyote kunijaribu to prove. Another reason Kenya's town residents prefer shopping in malls or supermarkets, it's a culture for many years, moreso Luos with their pride and as such that mall comes in handy, can't be empty. Mjaluo peleka duka ya kuuza vitu flashi utapata soko, atajikaza ata Kama hana pesa. Sasa reason ya kukua empty, first ni govt delays to open, they wanted to sell to some private investors but Nyanza politicians refused, I applauded the move ju Uhuru's friends were salivating for it. Second the road construction at Mamboleo junction has delayed, flyover at the junction ndio imeisha, imebaki stretch from the mall hadi kwa another flyover hapo kwa reli which had stalled, connecting to the mall is cumbersome, only Riat Hill residents and Mamboleo residents are very close, though driving in isn't easy yet, slow road works by the Israelis have worked against it, mall inakula vumbi sana, anchor tenant can't just move in or any other business that requires traffic. Apart from politics surrounding any govt installation, Kuna many factors, also the anti corruption body kufuatiliwa how it was build, their investigations are some of the reasons for delays etc., na interest haingoji, atleast ungepata facts from the ground before writing your opinion and presenting them as facts ama ungesema "kwa mtazamo wangu" a word have seen many Tanzanians use kwa jukwa zao when someone isn't sure of a thing or giving an opinion. Na nimependa how most of them argue apart from liars who are hiding here.

Indications are that the government will be lifting the coronavirus lockdown soon. Yet I fear for the Kisumu Breweries Limited factory, by far the biggest recent investment in the Western Kenya region and which has remained closed since March 23 following closure of bars, if the National Treasury alters the tax regime that made the investment attractive in the first place. In a public notice published on May 29, the National Treasury sent out a notice that it plans to eliminate duty remissions enjoyed by the Kisumu plant.

This factory is the most significant private investment in Western Kenya in recent years. Yet barely one and a half years since it commence operations, a dark cloud looms over its head.

When you give investors tax concessions and attractive incentives- you can influence companies to establish manufacturing plants and factories in a specific region and location.

And where the government has introduced tax concessions and incentives to attract a private investor to establish a manufacturing plant, fairness dictates that government has to maintain predictability in its fiscal laws.

It is unfair indeed, that barely one and a half years after the Kisumu plant started its operations, the National Treasury is now turning around to say that it wants to change the Excise Duty regime that encouraged and led the investor to build the factory in Kisumu in the first place.

We forget that before a manufacturer decides to commit to building a multi-billion shilling factory, the question uppermost in his mind will be the following: if I start an undertaking on the strength of tax holidays announced by the government, how can I be sure that the remissions and concessions granted will continue and be in force until I recover my investment?.

Indeed, the history and origin of the Sh14 billion Kisumu plant was a decision by former Finance minister, the late David Mwiraria.

He was the first to come up with the idea of introducing tax remission for beer made from sorghum, millet and cassava. To enjoy this remission, you have to develop and invest in a comprehensive value chain for these food crops. Originally set at 35 percent, it was gradually increased to 100 percent between July 2006 and October 2013 and later revised to the prevailing level of 80 percent.

The National Treasury has served notice that the remission will now go down to 60 percent.

We pay lip service to the instability of our tax laws. Tax remissions announced today can be amended tomorrow. Worse still, tax policy is framed by revenue-obsessed types - mandarins who believe that collecting more money for the government is more important than pursuing policies that support livelihoods and durable jobs to citizens.

The Kisumu plant should not just be judged by the taxes it pays to the government. It introduced new livelihood options in a region where opportunities for making money have dwindled drastically, especially since the collapse of sugarcane growing and tobacco farming.

The economic impact and livelihood support the Kisumu factory gives to the Western Kenya economy is illustrated by the fact that the company currently has in its stores, 12,500 tonnes of sorghum that it purchased from farmers from last year’s crop.

It is a value chain that includes 2,608 farmers spread across many counties. In the next few years, the Kisumu plant could open new options for hundreds of thousands of farmers.

It is estimated that to run and maintain the Kisumu plant, which has a capacity of a million hectolitres of alcohol, KBL will require nearly 40,000 metric tonnes of sorghum every year

In the last one and half years, the company has been forced to spend billions of shillings in developing a stable and high quality sorghum value chain.

It has had to spend billions to roll out sorghum extension programmes covering multiple aspects, including access to inputs and credit, joint collection centres, mechanisation and contract farming.

Western Kenya needs livelihood options away from sugarcane, tobacco and maize. We forget that the Keg beer value chain also supports the fight against consumption of illicit drinks.

If the National Treasury changes the tax regime that informed the establishment of the factory, the Kisumu plant will eventually die. In the interest of sustaining livelihood options supported by the sorghum value chain in Western Kenya, let us save this factory.

Mimi nimesoma uchumi na siongei ujinga au ignorance kama wewe unavyofanya. Ukisoma any economics textbook itakueleza jinsi kitu inachofanya nchi ziwe first world ni kujenga industries na kuproduce manufactured goods. Wewe ndio uneducated fool for thinking that Kenya can develop simply by building malls. Nionyeshe nchi yoyote iliyokuwa industrialized simply by building malls. Wewe ndio mjinga wa mwisho for arguing that Kisumu will industrialize without building industries. Tafuta rika yako wa kuargue naye mimi siko level yako. Mimi nitakuignore from now on hata ukinimention juu sina muda na ujinga wako.
Finally, Kisumu naijua vizuri. I was born in Kisumu and grew up in Kisumu for the first 10 years of my life. Bado nina relatives wengi Kisumu na kila mwaka lazima niende Kisumu kuwatembelea.
 
You think we dont have bridges in kenya, nairobi expressway is the real deal that every tabloids and medias are talking about.
Hiyo express way inapita majini? Kila kitu kina uniqueness yake. The thing here ni kwamba hiyo Tanzanite bridge inapita majini so you can selfy ukiwa majini
