REFLECTION ON ECONOMIC RECUPERATION ON THE OTHER HAND.

By: Magede Si Wandale.

As the loud noise is continuing to spread all over the nation, with  Orange fanatics and bootlickers going out of control, Mr. Speaker Sir, Honorable WiseOne From TheEast  I would like to take this moment as a right time to make this auspicious presentation but before I go any further, Mr. Speaker sir ,The WiseOne himself , I recognize the presence of  Honorable Patseni Mauka, Honorable TheChief Mourner, Honorable Mukuzi Wa Duka, Honorable Mike Charles Banda, Honorable Juma Allie Saiti, Honorable Mkokoogona Inkosi Bvumbwe, Excellency Dr Alberto Murrius, Honorable Lyson Sibande, Honorable Greyson Chapita, Honorable Wellington Mangulenje, Honorable Suleman Atupele Chitera, Honorable Joshua Chisa Mbele, Honorable Samuel Malasa Banda, Honorable Davie Namusanya ,Chief Justice Bobby Lee Jones SC retired, Friends of Dr Lazalous Chakwera, the MCP fans, the Agenda for Change  UDF wing, DPP Malawi, Peoples Party fanatics not exclusive of Ackson Kalaile Banda, Thom Paul Duncan Mkolodza, Dawn Gowa Nyasulu and Tao Bin Mohammad Taonga  inclusive the entire cyberspace and Facebook family present ,feel being recognized by Honorable Magede Si Wandale. Mr. Speaker Sir, honorable WiseOne From TheEast, “we have NOW recovered“and I am proceeding as the motion has already been carried.

Mr. Speaker Sir, Honorable WiseOne From TheEast, I beg to take the floor now. To begin with, there has been a lot of noise on the economic recovery of Malawi from the day our dear president Her Excellency Madam Joyce Banda came into power, lot has been said and I don’t want to repeat but from the look of things I feel that we have not recovered. Mr. Speaker Sir, sorry that I will go against the protocol that “we have recovered “in this honorable chamber and I hope that there will be no objections and injunctions.

“Point of order”, “Point of order”.

I can hear the noise on the background from the Orange camp but am carrying on with my contributions. Mr. Speaker sir, When the ERP was first introduced, we heard that the plan needed so many controversial time frames, economic experts from the capital hill in  Orange attire suggested  5 years, some said it would be in 1 year time  and on the other hand some suggested  18 months and when Honorable JOMA came to head the Ministry of economic Planning and development he told the Nation that we had recovered  and nothing came to the limelight to support his argumentation apart from the buying of the ministerial TX Prado’s  until  some few  weeks  ago of crop yields and  availability of maize on the local market  that resulted in the inflation going down and later  Tobacco sales in progress the  Kwacha started to appreciate  with 1 % until now that we have seen it at 18 % and the exchange rate in the bank is a clear indication  Mr. Speaker Sir, Honorable WiseOne From TheEast  that we have NOW recovered”.

Mr. Speaker sir, Honorable WiseOne From TheEast, as we have now recovered, I want to thank our dear Presidents and the Orange brains in the capital hill for working tirelessly hand in hand and for recovering our economy that was tattered and in shambles. It’s a hope of every Malawian now that with a recovered economy the government will consider the following for every Malawian and failure to do so renders our economy unrecovered:

1. With the recovered economy Mr. Speaker Sir, myself and the entire honorable members  present in the chamber ,we are looking forward to have our fuel allowances with arrears paid as now the country has been eased.
2. With the recovered economy Mr. Speaker sir, Iam looking forward to see the prices of goods and services drastically going down.
3. With the recovered economy Mr. Speaker sir, we are expecting to see the pump fuel price to decrease as per the principle of Automatic Fuel Pricing <AFP>
4. With the recovered economy Mr. Speaker sir, Malawians are expecting to have perpetual s supply of drugs in hospitals.
5. With the recovered economy Mr. Speaker sir, we are looking forward to see the civil servants pay hike demand being honored without hustles or games attached.
6. With the recovered economy Mr. Speaker sir, we are hoping that Malawian will be relived from the Bonya and locally available Abwanoni and afford a KG of Beef.
7. With the recovered economy Mr. Speaker sir, I believe that now the government will not proceed to sell our Jet which has currently no bidder.
8. With the recovered economy Mr. Speaker sir, I hope that the government will go ahead to reduce the tuition fee in colleges and never shut down institution of high learning for lacking funds.
9. With the recovered economy Mr. Speaker sir, I hope that now the Malawi University of Science and Technology <MUST> will be opened as the country has some funds to furniture.
10. With the recovered economy Mr. Speaker sir, I hope that the tax that the MRA was imposing on goods and services will be reduced.

With these few words Mr. Speaker sir, Honorable WiseOne From TheEast, governments’ failure to put in place these 10 points raised above will render our economy unrecovered but for the time being Mr. Speaker sir, Honorable WiseOne From TheEast, we have NOW recovered.

Thank you.
