vaxx:Mindless ranting.Which bank did Kenya gov acquire and why would it even do that.If a bank in Kenya get into problem, central bank closes it, protect stakeholder money and is promptly sold to other banks.There are many such small banks in Kenya..and more getting license.Kenya and Ghana debt crisis did not start with COVID.It was already a problem.Kenya started to dial down and got into imf program as soon as it was available.Ghana delayed, continued to borrow and is now crushing. Debt market are not interested in long stories about dust..they want money in gov coffers.Kenya economy generates 21 billion annually in revenue.Its 115 billion dollars economy as of last year... likely to hit 120 billion this year.Ghana you're dead if imf doesn't come in quick. Kenya will always confound primitive extractive economies like Ghana and Nigeria wondering how we have build all these stuff with tea and coffee...no we use our brains.. human capital..the western world don't have any gold or diamond or oil...they invest in their human capital ..you take refuge in natural resources and crushes every three years |

rvp20182:they are always unwritten rules behind every penny you borrowed , china might sized and control their railway , freezed your asset taking with chinese loan etc if that becomes a must ? What are you leaning on ? Tea and flower ? You must be mad ?let me give you a hint, Somewhere in 2008, the IMF decided to sell more than 400 tons of their Fund’s gold. Gotten from Ghana and all other rich mineral resources country . the IMF earned about 3 billion more than it expected. And that billiion was used to give low-income countries low or no-interest loans like yours a relief , i doubt the potential of tea and flower . Give yourself a read , your country forced more than three banks in 2016 when it becomes obvious there are already in distress With Ghana certain debt profile , it is already in the process of shedding it , what is your country doing? 3 Likes 2 Shares |

Japanese yen or even Veitnam dong or South Korea won are STABLE. You dont see them depreciating yearly. In fact their problem is of no inflation. You cannot talk about cost of living when you live in Zimbwabwe when currency has depreciated since independence by 150,000 to dollar now. Kenya since independence - it's 120 to a dollar. You cannot convince me that people income have risen by 3 times the last three months. Or 150,000 since independence. Ghanians are wailing. You live in Zimbwabw or Zambia vaxx: |

rvp20182:If SouthKoreans say they use their brains and don't depend on natural resources, the claim is verified from the amount of manufacturing companies they have and what they produce. It can also be verified from the value of their biggest exports. We check, and your biggest production and exports are Tea/Flowers.

Mkenya2019:if you look at the living standard of Kenyans and compare it with Ghanaians .. do you see an equal comparison? While half of Ghanaians are middle incomers, only 5 million Kenyans are middle incomers. That is a gap that makes your tea and flowers valueless in affecting Kenyan wellbeing. When you look at Nairobi and Accra.. you see a thriving society in Accra and you see a struggling society in Nairobi |

Accra long failed the eye test. It's why you got pulled into this conversation and we have come to know your economy is sick. You can cook data but cedis is showing your dust. Since you got independence your cedis cumulative lost against the dollar is 150,000!!!!!!!!!! Just40: |
Re: Kenyans Are Far Behind Nigerians In Every Aspect – Fani-Kayode by Shma2022: 10:10am On Nov 15, 2022 |
Just40:Living standards come hand in hand with life expectancy. If you live long, you're happy and eating healthy - and of course enjoying good security(security requires huge investment). Living standard is not about how obese you're. Thus say, ghana's life expectancy is 3yrs below Kenya's. The current life expectancy for Kenya in 2022 is 67.21 years, a 0.39% increase from 2021. The life expectancy for Kenya in 2021 was 66.95 years, a 0.39% increase from 2020 Ghana's living standard is 64yrs. |

rvp20182:It is simply because what drives economy is ain't about currency stability, it is way more than that. A country with a weaker currency but with strong home based manufacturing company will surely feel no inch of it since most of the consumables goods are produced locally,therefore weaker currency become a means to acquired more earnings by exporting cheaper goods. One of the good reasons you will continue to see japan,South Korea and chinese goods in your shelves. But ours is opposite,we have a weaker currency with a weaker manufacture base. We trade away cedis due to speculative individual who have decided to be in the business idea of buying and selling them instead of holding shares and selling them. Government are now closing down on bureau d change that operates without government approval. A more robust government support plan on manufacturing industry and a good evangelism of cedis trustworthiness will curb the crisis. We also need more industry here particularly in electronic and chips technology. We are spending more dollars for this. You cannot compare a 4 billion dollar export and a nearly negative balance economy to that of Ghana 23 billion dollar export .it is madness to do so . Having dollars here isn't the problems, Our economy is not wanting at all. Once you valued the amount of dollar cash that fly away here against what we have here. You will be recording nothing less than 4 billion annually unlike your country trading at negative . It is either you are not doing anything at all or what you are doing ain't enough. With my 14hundered thousand dollar to a cedis , I can still support my basic needs like food and water , electricity etc. What about you ? Or the people of tukana . Our northern capital Tamali will do well comparable to Nairobi if water and electricity alone are consider. Kenyans are more poorer than Ghanaian . That is cut belt . 1 Like |

While North Korea may look flashy than South Korea because it seek to impress visitors with empty apartment for tourist, South Korea is more wealthy and it people do not face yearly starvation and they also live in better conditions. We have come to know the Ghanaian economy to be more resilient and had withstood 3 years of turbulence and still standing strong while Kenya runned to the IMF 2 years ago and still facing the hyperinflation effects. |

This a long diatribe that can be summarize in two sentence. Nobody trust the cedis because of it's history of hyperinflation. Your economy even when you re-dominated the cedis to 1:1 with dollar remain dollarized. Arresting dealers will make situation worse. The solution is simple - watch your macro-economics - debt, soveirgn credit rating, inflation, interest rate - you dropped the ball and now Ghanians - both local/foreign investors - are racing to protect their money by dollarizing. Kenya has no such history - apart from a brief period of six months in 1993 - when we moved from 20 to 60 to a dollar - now we are 120 - all those 60yrs.Therefore there is a lot of trust and confidence on Kshs. Your rarely see anything in kenya quoted in dollars - in fact it somewhat illegal to do that. When it come to comparing kenya and Ghana - simple video of Nairobi or Mombasa or kisumu or Nakur or Eldoret is enough. You see economic growth and progress is not found in data - it manifest itself. When you go to Germany or Japan or US - you dont need to see their data to know it's doing well. When I see Ghana - and I have seen lots of video - I see poverty, I see hawking on streets, I see almost informality everywhere, I see huge slumpolis without even single trees, I see Nigeria. I have seen both rural and urban places. I see farming that is almost stone age. You can also see videos from youtubers who have gone to both Ghana and Kenya. vaxx: |

Life expectancy comes "hand in hand with" ( this part spaced you already.) "....With life expectancy." Go and read the methodology of measuring living standards then come and display your ignorance. Check aspects like social capital: security and safety, social networks, community support.... Then go down to physical capital: food consumption, land ownership, and property ownership. Move to environmental & human capital then check how it interlinks with life expectancy. |

And yeah, of all the indices, life expectancy stands out. You don't conclude the rate of living standards with income class. So Senegal is doing fine -- the average will speak volume. Example. Nigeria is Africa's economic powerhouse. Countermeasure: no, Nigeria's poverty rate is the epitome of disgrace on the continent. BUFFOONS/ DIMWITS: so this guy can confuse Economy with poverty rate!

On Kenya's inflation rate, Prices are going back to normal. I see nearly all foodstuff is back to normal. None food stuff( outside oil) are on a downward trajectory. Fuel products are still static. But I heard the president is working on it. He's striking deals everywhere - by Jan, everything will be pretty much normal. Consensus Forecast panelists expect inflation to average 7.3% in 2023, which is up 0.1 percentage points from last month’s forecast. For 2024, the panel sees inflation averaging 6.0%. Our consumer price index has risen with insignificant margin Notwithstanding the global economic crisis. |
