3. Cost of goods to and from the Americas will go down - shipping and handling Is the route profitable?do we have airlines willing to fly this route? Even ET and SA are struggling with the direct flights.I for one would prefer a layover(2-3 hrs) than staying in a an aircraft for 20-30 minutes refueling without the option of leaving the aircraft for an 18hr flight Americans tourists in Kenya are very negligible while the likes of Kiash usually fly home after every 3-5 years.Trade between Kenya and Merica has been on decrease. This route IMO is not profitable unless KQ wants to fly it for pride If Obiero did it, Who Am I?

I used an example of ET, For ET the only full flight from Kiash lands happens to be on a monday all other days the seats are usually empty If Obiero did it, Who Am I?

Do they sell flowers fruits and veges? Never heard of it. They dont even need a cargo plane As I said, one can only test the waters once they put their foot in it. By the way, planes make more money from Cargo. Watu si sana, you will want to eat and drink and have an attendant taking care of you. "There are only two emotions in the market, hope & fear.

My 3 cousins went to kiashland 15yrs ago and they have never come back. Must be makaratasi issues. My aunt is the saddest person ever despite all her kids being majuu.

KCB proposes to build 40fl residential buildings in NgaraQuote:Q: You have placed a bid with Nairobi County to redevelop three sites in Nairobi. What does the deal entail?
A: Nairobi has been grappling with the issue of housing its ballooning population. There is no idle land in the city for development. However, the city sits on old estates within a walking distance of the CBD with a very low density. The county has been looking for partners in redeveloping these estates.
We bid for three sites, namely Old Ngara, New Ngara and Jevanjee estates. In New Ngara, we propose to erect high rise flats comprising 1,213 units, 926 units in Old Ngara and 1,672 units in Jeevanjee – all at a cost of Sh25 billion. However, these are proposals at this stage. If given the opportunity, we shall be sitting with all relevant partners and stakeholders to configure the final projects scope and details before implementation. Quote:Q: The designs in your bid documents show that the redevelopment will consist of 40-storey residential apartments, or the tallest structures in East Africa. Why this height?
A: Well, this is the way to go in many parts of the world. Those who travel know that this is how people live in New York or Dubai. There is no reason why you cannot have your home on the 35th floor of a building. Remember too that land is a scarce commodity in the city. If we erect units similar in size to the current ones that will soon be demolished, we will not be solving the housing problem. If Obiero did it, Who Am I?
