USAID...
I would like the US embassy to comment on this before the lady is crucified. Once both sides give their versions we can have a better discussion.
1.The broke GoK does not want such funds to go directly to NGO's, counties or whomever. Lazima ipite kwao.
2. That being the case, they want to charge some f***in tax on the same. The US has said to that 'wacha ikae, tuone nani ataumia'
3. Yes it is a grant. The USAID does not give loans to Governments.. NKT!
4. Some ministries e.g MoH is literally run by USAID, UNICEF, etc. GoK only pays salaries and buys Oral B for diarrhoea
5. We all know what USAID UKAID etc do with these monies...
Fact: If by tourism high season, they wont be mending fences with the 'real masters'.... another security warning and another hit for the economy.
