"On a cautionary note, a key threat to this growth is the spiraling current account deficit that stood at U.s. Dollars 4.5 billion (13%
of GDP) in December 2012. This deficit level is one of the highest in the world. Bold policy actions need to be taken urgently to
strengthen Kenya’s export engine and reduce the country’s reliance on imports that also leaves it vulnerable to unpredictable
exchange rate movements."
Which rates! Simulate exports ok not imports.
The opposite of courage is not cowardice, it's conformity.
