I think even though we have a government that doesn’t seem responsive to the needs of the citizenry,we have to remember that politicians are the same the world over (look at Britain,Lebanon,US,Iran etc). Only the professionals in a country roll the wheels of development. For instance,nobody would have justified removing Thabo Mbeki as president in SA simply because he was pro-business in favour of Zuma. When we realise that we are competing with everyone for everything,then we will build that railway,and I insist subway system as fast as yesterday. Without a reliable railway,we will not go far. Our development will only be limited to areas with access to tarmacked roads or near a major town. Its good rail roads that helped the Asian tigers to be where they are. If we sit around and other countries around us,say Uganda,Rwanda,Tanzania or Burundi develop good rails before us (Kenya),all the business in Kenya will move out. Then we will be left in a quagmire. Instead of building more dams to produce electricity,we should built nuclear power stations,and have dams and seawater desalination plants to provide water for industrial,domestic and agricultural use. All these technologies are available and are accessible. And where do we get the money for all these? The nuclear power plants cost around $ 1 B,desalination plants cost far less. The government can sell bond to Kenyans and friends of Kenya both inside and in Diaspora. There is a lot of goodwill out there. Don’t give up good people.
