Capital Talk on K24 last night - Guest: Francis Muthaura....
'Uganda is more important to Kenya than Migingo,they are our largest trading partners worth over 42b. We cannot afford to lose them. Kenyans should stop thinking with their emotions.'

The best time to plant a tree is twenty years ago. The second best time is now.

Typical Kenya thinking-money.We can cede our land/water becos of money we receive in trading with Uganda.What about the movement of beacons in Pokot? If that is the reasoning of a senior civil servant then we are doomed.

@ Chaka do you know Kenya made Shs 43b from flower export to Europe 2007 and 40b in 2008? I'm sure with RVR (containers) and all the oil tankers and cargo trailers to Uganda we must be making much more.

That Muthaura talk is very cheap.....they would spend more than that 42B elsewhere if their relations with Kenya were to break!!!

.......wonder why sometimes they sing about sovereignity!!!!!


The chief value of money lies in the fact that one lives in a world in which it is overestimated.

@ chaka,

just an insight...Ugandas exports commodities are mainly coffee,fish and fish products,tea; gold,cotton,flowers,horticultural products.

...and she exports her products to: Kenya 14.7%,Switzerland 13.7%,Netherlands 9.2%,UK 6.4%,South Africa 5.6%

....she imports her goods from: Kenya 26%,India 7.4%,South Africa 7.2%,Japan 6.6%,UK 6.3%,UAE 5.8%,US 5.7%,China 5.1%
