Its about accuracy of data and GoT is very keen on getting the true figures out even if CCM may feel that revising previous GDP growth figures down does not reflect well on their political talking points..Magufuli is honest with himselfOf course. And that GDP is accurately underwhelming.We heard lame excuses that TZ economy wasn't be captured - turns out even with latest data - its very puny. Kenya will also re-base once they have census data - more accurate comprehensive data - together with 2016 Household surveys - and we shall see how that goes. I am think Kenya re-basing will happen in 2021 or around.

Have you read the law or are you just getting your info from media?Is that why Magufuli passed a law that criminalize unofficial stats or anyone who questions them. Sounds very honest indeed.Citizen Newspaper is out of press for doing exactly that. Questioning the strength of Tshs.

Have you read the law or are you just getting your info from media?
How would you react if david ndii came with figures other than those from KNBS? You may diasgree with his analysis but he strictly uses KNBS data
The law simply states that GoT is the only source of government statistics and any other entity that purpots to issue statistics and claim that they are official data from the economy are commiting a felony
The government has a lot of vested interest in statistis,we cannot risk entrusting them with statistics.especially economic data,have you ever had of institute of economic affairs in kenya,they provide much more transparent data than KNBS
At the end of this year,kenya economy will cross over $100 billion dollars mark,remember, kenya is not a petro or mineral economy,we don't have commodity resources yet we punch up there with the big boys,Angola economy grew at an average of 20% in the 2000s for pumping out 1.2 mbd of oil,its economy is around $110 dollars.
Why all this sarcasm? Kwani huko kukua kwa asilimia 3.8 ni haba? Tuambie uchumi wa Marekani au Uingereza ulikua kwa kiasi gani? Zaidi ya hayo, kwani tupo kushindana na Kenya au kuhakikisha nchi yetu inaendelea? Kejeli zako na kubeza mafanikio ya serikali yetu hayafai. Unaposema "looks like THEY are not going to overtake Kenya" kunanifanya niamini kabisa hakuna uzalendo katika fikra zako. Ni sawasawa na mtoto au mke ambaye amekwaruzana na baba mwenye nyumba; anakwenda anabwaka barabarani kwamba mapato ya baba nyumbani mwetu hayafikii ya baba fulani jirani yetu. Hizo kejeli (hata kama ni za kweli) zinakunufaishaje wewe? Nia yetu ni kuleta maendeleo. Kama juhudi hizo zitafanya tuipiku Kenya, well and good. Lakini lengo letu si kuipiku Kenya bali kuleta maendeleo.Tanzania rebases economy, 2015 GDP now 3.8 pct larger - stats office | Reuters
