Tanzania's Threat Over Ivory Ill Advised

[Smatta]

Tanzania is furious with Kenya because of the position we took on trade in ivory at the recent wildlife meeting in Doha, Qatar.
Kenya led opposition to Tanzania's bid to be allowed to sell its stockpile of ivory, and is now being accused of bad neighbourliness.
Tanzania's Minister for Natural Resources and Tourism Shamsa Mwangunga has warned Kenya, which stopped the country's bid to sell off its ivory, not to expect Tanzania's support on issues related to the UN Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species, Cites.
Kenya needs not be apologetic about its stand. As much as neighbouring countries are expected to maintain cordial relations, common practice in international relations is that a country identifies its national interest and pursues it selfishly.
This pursuit of national interest often leads to disagreements with neighbours. There are incidents when Tanzania has been uncooperative and remained aloof on matters of the East African Community it felt might not serve its interests. Their refusal to allow free access to land, movement of residents and the use of IDs as travel documents are examples.
Thus our neighbours to the South should avoid making veiled threats because of the position Kenya took on ivory trade. After all we have more issues we agree on than those on which we disagree.

Smatta,

Do you think what Kenyans did in Doha will alter our stance on any matter concerning our national intersts?what did Kenya gain from opposing our Bid in Doha?

Think twice before you post such kind of craps on internet bro. Wewe na wakenya wenzako mnanichekesha sana ,naona hata Ambassador wenu HE ambassador Mutiso anageuka kituko huku Tanzania.Yaani akiongea ni kama vile anajadili ishu ya ukamba na ukikuyu,you sucks!

Smatta,
Try to quote other people's work unambiguously.
If someone reads your post at the first time, it is not clear if you sourced it from multimedia, a word SOURCE… Could have made your article much clearly. Many readers here think you are the author of the article.

Huyu Smatta namshangaa, kuna blogs nyingi huku zinazo zungumzia mambo ya Kenya. Kwanini asijiunge nazo na kutuachia hii yetu WaTz tutanue kivyetu? Kila akija ni udaku na uchokozi tu. Kuna Ushahidi nadhani angejiunga ili aungane na wakenya wenzie ili watafakari na kushauriana namna ya kuondoa chuki zao za ukabila. Buddy, we don't feel like having a stranger in our forum!

Son, I am an active member of many African forums, JF being one of them, and just to let you know, this forum is so hostile to foreigners who are not afraid to call it as it is, and for some reason I have managed to stick around though many of the Kenyan members who I had found here have either quit (because of fruits like you) or have been banned for reasons that don't add up . I dont think this here forum is exclusive to Tanzanians, coz if it were, I wouldn't bother answering your hogwash because I wouldn't be here in the first place. I didn't join JF by accident, I have a lot of interest in your country and thats the main reason I have stuck around for so long. This fruit has joined this forum yesterday and now he thinks he can tell Smatta to go eff himself, try again, and the next time you post something leave my name out of your mouth coz it aint a ... you know what.

Tuwasamehe Bure, Ila Tanzania Land Is For Tanzanians. Hakuna kugeuka We will drive you away by any means. We know you are already here many of you thugs pretend to be Tanzanians but your time is coming.

Sijaona hapo content inayoelezea with good reasons, ill advised in want sense..Ok ni kweli wakenya wana haki ya kutolea decision mambo kadiri wanavoona wao inawasaidia SELFISHLY, kaa ilivo hulka yao..Tatizo sisi ni naivette inatusumbua kila kona.

Ukweli ni kwamba suala la kuuza hizo pembe za ndovu, kuna mambo mengi yamejificha na sisi waTz wa kawaidia kukimbilia tu kuisupport serikali yetu blindly can be tragic and dangerous.

Pili kwa watu wengi kudhania kuwa Kenyans give shyt about the wellfare of our beloved Bongoland, is another facet of the same naivette. Ndio naivette hiihii inayokuja mlangoni sasa hivi kutu-haunt ktk mambo ya EAC.

Kwa kifupi kila jambo lilitakiwa kupimwa kwa kina tangia mwanzo badala ya kuplay majuto mjukuu na kutoa visingizio vya kijinga.

"EAST COAST AFRICAN COMMUNITY" Itakuwa suluhisho la nchi zenye mlengo wa matatizo yanyofanana,nchi hizi ni KENYA,SUDAN,ETHIOPIA AND SOMALIA.
LET US ENCOURAGE THESE COUNTRIES TO JOIN TOGETHER AS A COMMUNITY,(ECAC)
"EAST AFRCAN COMMUNITY" The people of peace and Liberty should join the countries like TANZANIA,UGANDA RWANDA BURUNDI AND ZAMBIA PROBABLY IF THEY WANT.
These are my personal views.

Nisaidieni: mada ya hapa ni nini? U-Kenya?, U-Tanzania?, Ujirani (mwema/mbaya)?, Jumuia? Meno/Pembe ya/za Ndovu? Mawazo binafsi?

Smatta ka-boil, na ukibishana na mjinga, nani atamtambua mwerevu?

Kama tunakubaliana na maoni binafsi, THEN IT IS MY PERSONAL VIEW THAT THERE IS NO WORTHY VIEW FOR DISCUSSION HERE AND NOW, tuanze kujadiliana yatakayotujenga huko tuendako, with or without neighbours!

My father had told told me, 'You can choose your friends from all over the world, but it is the world who chooses your neighbours; so if you can neither bear with them nor join them, make them shift or look for another place yourself!'

Good day!
