What will we do to this scrap metal trade? It has become a social menace: manhole covers, telephone & electricity cables, guard rails on the roads (have you seen the newly completed section from Mazeras to Mombasa?), street-light poles..... and now Mount Kenya textiles.
If we are not careful, they will start stealing car-panels (especially doors)!
What would be the economic impact of placing an immediate and total ban on this trade?
Nothing is real unless it can be named; nothing has value unless it can be sold; money is worthless unless you spend it.
