You would think southern Sudan is the 48th county of Kenya given the way local media stations are competing with each other to cover the plebiscite. dedicating 20 minutes every evening to souther sudan as if there are no issues happening in this country. I wonder whether Sudanese stations covered our referendum as much as we are covering theirs. I understand that kenya has immense interest in souther sudan but this is too much. I will watch news after this sudan nonsense dies!! The way I am

This sudan thing will affect us no matter how it goes so I don't see anything wrong with us covering something Kenya has been part of for years. '......to the acknowledgment of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ; 3 In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.' Colossians 2:2-3

There even Kenyans who are planning to start doing business in Southern Sudan and they are actually using this coverage as a preliminary study. This is probably the cheapest source of [researched] information they have. Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

Sudanese on the other hand rarely have jobs or run any businesses. They have nothing to make them stay in Kenya if there is peace and opportunities in their country. Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

The reality is Kenya gave them refuge in time of war and most importantly education. Majority of the Sudanese who will run SS are Kenyan trained and will most likely use Kenyan systems so it will be easy for Kenyans to mingle. I can bet you we will run the medical, financial and IT sectors there. That's like owning the govt. to put it bluntly.

These guys are known to be quite violent, lets hope they won't start complaining about Kenyans taking over in their country because i know there are so many opportunities to be exploited in S. Sudan.

the fact that the SSese are laughing with you does not mean that they like you...ask those who have been in SS before and came back... the SSese are very conservative fellows with extreme kenyanphobia...TZans and Ugans are more acceptable in SS. ...besides, the presence of a safe alone does not signify that there is money inside...

iko wandugu TZns SS? surprise surprise! True SSse don't like kenyans and ugandan that much - maybe because of their hardwork ethic and pure resentment for economic reasons. yet there are over 70,000 kenyans in SS.... talk of a Tom & Jerry kind of love.

@marex,sielewi the problem. Sudan really affects kenya economically and on security.imagine if there was peace in somalia.Also media covers elections whose results have no direct impact on most ordinary kenyans.e.g US polls What a wicked man I am!The things I want to do,I don't do.The things I don't want to do I find myself doing

what are the requirements for one to vie there, i am really considering relocating to sudan county and become a senator, or a governor. African parents don't know how to say sorry.. the closest you will get to a sorry is a 'have you eaten'

I beg to differ. SSees( and sudaneese as a whole) really love Kenyans,call Nairobi the 'London of africa'. I have worked in sudan from SS to Darfur, an this I know for a fact. But we have to agree that the SS are a pple who have worked, lived and eaten violence for over two decades. That usually affects a society and unwinding it might take some time. we only need to be patient with them and theyll be more civil.BTW the violence is never directed to anybody by virtue of being Kenyan,its to evrybody who crosses their paths, even the locals. It is a way of expression "Peace is our profession, War is our business" ...Unknown

I agree with Um, these guys are not hostile to kenyans per se but yes they're mad at previous injustices. Havin encountered tz and ss i still think these guys are friendlier. In Tz u're clearly a kenyan but in ss you are one of them, esp if you take time and interact with them. One needs to understand that in general the level of education amongst th Ssudanese is pretty low generally. A bachelors degree is what a masters is here. Why should kenya be bothered, we do lots of business there and right now w ....above all, to stand.
