What stops Mombasa from looking like this?

A small island town in Malaysia looks much more developed than our very own Mombasa. What could we be doing wrong?

Watu wa Mombasa ni wavivu, wanapenda umalaya na wanaamini uchawi.

Dogomothi kama nyinyi mko na bakuli ya kushikilia meno. Watu brare useless

Are concrete jungles a sign of development?

I rather live in mombasa

Magistrate @dingoo_wa_ingoo kindly jail this mothafoka for me… minimum 10 years

Kenya is still a poor country…

Before 2013 when counties become a thing, the coastal region used to contribute close to 60% of the GDP. All this was systematically reversed by the following ways:

  1. Infra investment meant for coast to boost tourism was diverted to somewhere else. We know where.
  2. Cargo services slowly relocated to Naivasha.
  3. Media misinformation that Nairobi and Kiambu were the greatest contributors to GDP.
  4. The natural behaviour by mijikendas to being a jealous people who would rather they all suffer than see some of their own make it. This meant very little resistance from the coastal elite when points 1 and 2 was happening.

Wewe mzee. Stop quoting non-existent facts.

:D:D

Would you rather live in Bombolulu

Sina maoni

Order and planning are an IQ issue.

Yes

wacha zako wewe, you people live like rats huko, look at kibera, pipeline, mkn na giithurai. kisha you have the audacity to come and lecture us hapa?. kwani mombasa si kenya?

The responsibility of developing Mombasa actually lies in nairobi.

This is not Bombolulu.

Coasterians are foolish

Mash poa, Tahmeed, Modern Coast, Dreamline, Simba, Buscar, Channia,… Hujaa daily from all corners of Kenya kuelekeza local tourists Pwani. Mbona watalii Mombasa na ku refer wenzao ikiwa Pwani haivutii?.

There are lots of magnificent beach front mansions and hotels. Flats zajengwa pia Kwa fujo.

Yes, I’ve spent some time along bamburi beach, second row property apartments zinajenga na fujo sana, and those with sea views zinauzwa very expensively

We can’t compare ourselves with Malaysia, hebu anagalia stats
