How the heck can Kenya with a GDP growth rate of 5% and a GDP that is ranked number 87 in the world actually drive the global economy? We are talking in terms of the growth and not in terms of the size But Kenya's economic growth has to do with driving the world economy. And a 5% GDP growth rate is not impressive when compared to other African nations. When computing global GDP growth rate, its like they get the growth In % per country, add up and then get the average? If so, by achieving 6-7% we could really push the global economy upwards??? Kenya's GDP is so small that its like a drop in the ocean. Its like when a person goes to a Harambee and contibutes 100 bob whereas the guest of honor contributes millions. I fail to see how Kenya can power the global GDP. China powers global GDP because many countries are dependent on China for trade. For example Australia sells a significant proportion of its raw minerals to China. And China is the biggest trading partner to the EU. Who depends on Kenya for economic growth? And once again, a 5% GDP growth rate is not that impressive when Tanzania and Ethiopia and other nearby nations have been growing at much faster rates.

It puts Kenya at par with India which is laughable when you consider that India's GDP is about 40 times higher than Kenya.

The question you are asking is irrelevant since you didn't get to understand the gist of the article "There are only two emotions in the market, hope & fear.

China, the Philippines, Kenya, India and Indonesia, which together make up about 16 percent of global gross domestic product, are all forecast to grow more than 5 percent in 2015.which combined account for about a quarter of global growth, are expected to grow 3.1 percent and 2.6 Quote: By comparison, the U.S. and U.K., percent this year, respectively. The euro area probably will expand just 1.2 percent as European Central Bank President Mario Draghi deals with a fragile Greece and embarks on a bond-purchase program to stimulate the region's growth Quote: Nigeria, Africa's largest economy, is projected to expand 4.9 Alba, If Impunity got an A in Nyakemincha while the rest got D- and the school ended up having a mean grade of D+ we can therefore say that impunity was responsible for the improved performance of Nyakemincha. Kama haujashikanisha bado,I will give you the same advice Kipchirchir gave you.Read the article again! If Obiero did it, Who Am I?
