This is the only way forward …
In 2016 , USA withdrew its $812 Million aid from Tanzania.
Thinking that President John Pombe Magufuli [ RIP ] would get on his knees and beg , He said this instead :-
“We need to stand on our own …
If you are a farmer, you need to farm hard …
If you are a fisherman , fish hard …
Work hard so that Tanzania can get rid of donor dependence…”
Our problem is that we have Thieves , Idiots and Traitors in leadership more interested in enriching themselves , staying in power and selling their Nations Sovreignity to Foreign Interests …
Our leadership PRIORITIES should follow 3 progressive phases :-
- Immediate :
Addressing Security , Food Sufficiency [ Farming , Value Addition & Processing ] , Health , Education , Graft and Wastage of National Resources.
-
Medium :-
Kickstarting Basic National Infrastucture Projects [ Roads , Ports , Comminications , Green Power Grids , Manufucturing , EPZ’s …etc…]. -
Long Term :-
Eliminate Foreign Borrowing [ …this what is currently abused or stolen anyway …] and work only with Grants , Donations and Genuine Partnerships…
Example: The Dutch Government once offered to assist with the perenial Flooding in Budalangi.
Goverment was to relocate Residents from Flood Plains and set them in cooperatives .
The vacant land re-engineered [ …with the participation of NYS - Jobs and Skills ] with Levees , Dykes , Polders , Fish Farms and Rice Paddies.
The Dutch are proven World Leaders in Land Reclaimation and Water Management Technology …
45% of Holland lies beneath Sea Level …

The Locals would benefit from the proceeds thru the Cooperative membership of each family , provide Jobs and allied economic benefits.
Backward elements in Government [… led by Ababu Namwamba and company … ] frustrated and killed the idea before it was implemented …
