At least 5,000 foreign workers will be shipped into the country to undertake the construction of the 609km standard gauge railway from Mombasa to Nairobi

Am sure our politicians will have something to say about this

..before we ran away with the 5,000 Chinese coming, how many local jobs are also being offered? What is the percentage of the local jobs created v foreign jobs? Compare that with the EU & American projects? What is the comparative in terms of monies LEFT in the KE economy vis-a-vis those reverted back to the loaning countries? Again, what is the comparative loan terms against those of the EU/US institutions? Now come back here and compare. Kazi iendelee!!

Sadly yes,here we have 20 million CPA holders and just a few technical guys like
certified welders, plumbers, masons, carpenters (not juacali) even mechanics so few certified ones
the few graduating from the technical schools are usually poached even before final exams.

I don’t want to abuse anyone but do you note that most of us are traders....buying and selling things , a better name would even be merchandisers. So no expertise here. I am not suprised.

You have a soft heart.
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God..
