Isnt it interesting that people think that they now know more than the man who was the Finance Minister? The salary talk is just one of the many moves. Keep watching

Corruption is part of the wastage. I listened to Governor Mutua's interview on Kiss 100 and I liked his approach. Basically he said that they had identified inflated tender prices as one of the ways funds would easily be stolen. So, prior to tendering for a tea-cup for instance, they go out and conduct a market survey on the prevailing prices of cups in the open market. If they find the going price to be, for instance, 20 bob, they'll then allow for a reasonable margin of say 2-5 bob per cup so that any tenderer who quotes an outrageous price of say 200 bob per cup, they'll consider that to be an inflated price and thus not consider such.

Life is like playing a violin solo in public and learning the instrument as one goes on.

A good approach to pricing but it doesn't address planned obsolescence and artificial demand e.g. like the issue of typewriters.A good price for something that might not be needed is forward-looking corruption.

Which cars are you talking about? Or rather, you're probably including cars that aren't a part of the official motorcade. Like wondering why or how so many cars will pass before a camera on Uhuru highway within two minutes.

Tycho, how are you able to tell the cars that aren't part of the official motorcade from that video?
