Sioni kabisa kinachozuia Tanzania kufanana na Somalia. Kila indication zinaonekana kabisa kwamba tupo katika hali ya kuitwa 'failed state'Sasa hivi tuna viongozi wasiochaguliwa na wananchi na kibaya zaidi hao mafisadi ndio decision makers wa taifa. ukiangalia na kutafakari utaona wazi Tanzania imefanana tayari na hali mbaya ya corruptions za Nigeria, Kenya na nchi zingine ambazo tulikuwa tunazicheka. Sasa tungoje nini wakati wananchi wengi wanaonekana wapo tayari kupigana na kuachana na hizi chaguzi zinazopangwa na mafisadi. Kuna kila sababu ya wananchi kuwachukia ccm na network yao na zaidi uozo na policies zisizoeleweka. Mfano mzuri ni solutions za umeme na mafanikio yake mpaka sasa. Serikali ya kikwete ni broke na donors wameshajua hii serikali haina mwelekeo na kuna dalili kubwa serikali ya kikwete itavunjika any time soon. Read article ya Somalia na view below pictures.
The Three Worst Places to Live
By NICHOLAS D. KRISTOF
The most failed of all the failed states is Somalia! Foreign Policy has just published its annual failed states ranking, and Somalia heads the list. Sudan comes in second, and Zimbabwe ranks third, followed by Chad, Iraq, Congo and Afghanistan.
I would agree on Somalia at the top of the list, but I would have put Central African Republic much higher (it ranks 12th). CAR is torn apart by civil war in the northwest, which leaves people hiding out in the bush. In the northeast, it has been invaded by Sudan-backed mercenaries. And in the east, the Lords Resistance Army is now killing and raping people. I would also put Congo higher, since the east is largely run by various militias and warlords. In any case, this is a useful exercise, and like to think of it as determining the worst places to live.
We tend to think of brutal dictatorships as the nastiest places on Earth, and its true that I would hate to live in North Korea or Burma, which would rank highest as tyrannies. But I would take either of those over eastern Congo or Somalia or large chunks of CAR. As Hobbes suggested, the one thing worse than a terrible government is no government at all.
So my picks for the three worst places to live would be: Somalia, Central African Republic and eastern Congo. Enter your picks below, by hitting the comment button.
