I may not have the latest data but Kenya was Africa's largest investor in terms of project numbers in 2016 as per the report by Earnest & Young. Whereas we beat South Africa in the number of projects,they beat us in the project values.They invested 2 billion dollars while we invested a billion dollars in other African countries. I think we are up there amongst biggest Africa to Africa FDI sources/intra-Africa FDI sources.Our companis are expanding and investing in other African markets.

South African companies are reinvesting more into their investments. Kenya invest in many small projects, SA invest large money into projects.

Mkenya2019:
2B dollars is really small for South Africa whose companies have the balance sheet to take on bigger risks but considering what Nigerians did to MTN & TZ to Barrick Gold there is big risk in investing in Africa.South African tended to recklessly enter a market but they are learning..in Kenya they are doing more M&A( mergers & acquisition) than coming pap with a brand nobody has ever heard.Anyway ShopRite & France Carrefour finally got into Kenya after the death of Nakumatt and Old Mutual acquired more insurance firms plus ABSA Barclays deal & that pretty much the action South Africa had in Kenya.Tiger got burnt by Haco industries cooked books and they dropped it back to it's former owners.With domestic economy in trouble down south, companies should be expanding to rest of Africa..so that really bad sign for South Africa.

In Kenya it usually the opposite..when there is trouble domestically..they expand regionally to tap into growing economies. I am not sure about business being patriotic..how does altruism work with money.Maybe ANC can commit to ending their unholy alliance with trade unions...the real albastross to your economic fortunes

Mkenya2019:
Again..when they had stopped flying to South Africa.Now their bought in cash dreamliners will have to fly domestically within TZ.The slowpoke first business would have been to clear previous debt..not go around it

One question at a time besides I think we ready covered this in last 5000 pages with Nigeria.I see you're desperately trying to divert attention from Ghana.Remove minerals and oil..what do you export..cocoa beans?You want to compare yourself with Kenya that has solid macro economics, prudent financial management including debt management and is winning the war against poverty when she is 89 % semi arid and has no minerals.That rich coming from aid dependant natural resource IMF colony whose citizens are immigrating enmasse.Kenya tea production has risen to be global leader on the back of small holder farmers with our Kenya Tea Dev Agency paying nearly a billion dollars annually to farmers. Mombasa tea auction is world biggest with tea from all over Africa sold there.The same is replicated in horticulture where Kenya vegetables dominate supermarket shelves of Europe and Middle East.We lead Africa in export of apparels & textiles to the US.We lead Africa in intra-africa trade.We are one of Africa biggest source of foregn investment outside South Africa with our companies spread all over SSA. We have 20k road network in a country where 2/3 of it is hardly populated and existing road network is good enough.In the last 15 yrs our economy has grown from 15b to 100b and nothing suggest that growth rate is about to stop..so another 15yrs our economy will most likely be worth 600B.. certainly in 3-4 yrs we will overtake Morocco to sit just below Algeria.We have one of Africa most educated professional force and MNC are choosing Nairobi over Joburg for that reason as their Africa HQ or entry point.We are nailing demographics..pop growth rate now 2.1% from 2.9% 10yrs ago..and are just about 5yrs from entering a demographic transition of more adults than kids that will further fuel our economic growth.Our cities certainly look way better than any of your shanties including Accra. Surely it is very rich for an IMF colony like Ghana that has tried to rebase itself from one Africa poorest country to where it is now but has not managed to handle hyperinflation and currency deprication..a country that depends on AID and is one year from another economic meltdown.Your best highway is a gift from George bush for being the whims.Our advice..learn from Kenya, diversity your economy, formalize your economy and join the modern world.You live just across the US and you cannot take advantage of AGOA that allow duty free quota free imports of 600 items from Africa? Your big idea is to bring back the messed up African Americans to Ghana?How can they help Ghana when they are the dregs in their countries?The year of return for the scum of earth back to motherland indeed

This is it...but one can't trust Wikipedia report.it can be influenced Morrocan Wikipedia..

There is no single report online that says morroco has surpassed SA...If that is true the news would have been everywhere just as it was for ours..

pacretus:
you are better than this n.a... . Same Wikipedia as at today 23/11/2019 ranks South Africa as second biggest economy.

Any one can update Wikipedia.. I can update Kenya's GDP to $100b since they crave it. Or $150b so they can compete with Lagos, better still $300b to fit into the big boys league.

No need to run away..just answer the questions he asked you one by one..simple..
Here you go...




why are 70 % of kenyans villagers?
why is there no kenyan tea brand?
Why is Kenya borrowing to pay debts?
why i kenya borrowing to support the kshs?
i want to believe you know Zimbabwe ?
Why is Kenya such an underdeveloped country?
why are roads in Kenya so bad?
Kenya has a road network of about 177,800 km out of which only 63,575 km ... During the same period, the paved road length grew from 1,811 km to 9,273 km.

why does Kenya have such poor health care facilities

Just30:
he is running away from them

Mkenya2019:
Run away ? Again we are here to have conversation - not for you to bombard me with half-thought half-baked questions - when you have hardly done any research or understood the concepts.

Let me answer you the first one and ask you one question related to it. Then we move to the next one.



Ghana - 1,641.49 USD (2017)
Kenya - 1,507.81 USD (2017)

I think as of 2019 - Kenya is around 2,000 and Ghana is slightly ahead - maybe 2,200. Even if we look at PPP - not much difference.

Urbanization. Kenya is EXACTLY where it's supposed to be urbanization wise. Urbanization is great - it should lead to greater economic development.Ghana & her big brother Nigeria claims to be 50% urbanized - which is all good except when I google ' GHANA GDP per Capita' and ' Kenya GDP per Capita'.

Ghana - 1,641.49 USD (2017)
Kenya - 1,507.81 USD (2017)

I think as of 2019 - Kenya is around 2,000 and Ghana is slightly ahead - maybe 2,200. Even if we look at PPP - not much difference.

Now the question for you. Why is that despite Nigeria & Ghana urbanized is poverty that rampant? Where are the fruits of that urbanization? Why do you urban centers look really BAD?

I can tell you for free - when Kenya reaches 50% urbanization ( we are urbanizing at 4% annually) - somewhere after 2030 - we will look like South Africa or Namibia - proper middle class countries.

You and Sammy the dreamer (for Nigeria curious case) can answer us now...and we can move to the next question.

Aderr:
Thank you. Say no more since you already agree Ghana is ahead.
