We are potentially looking at pre-Kibaki economic performance at this rate. I hope someone is doing some serious worrying at the gava level. The only saving grace is that we have a stronger internal capital base. "The purpose of bureaucracy is to compensate for incompetence and lack of discipline." James Collins

Just bring back some of the loot from offshore and we won't even need the Chinese. Business opportunities are like buses,there's always another one coming

It is the only way to bring tourists back and no amount of blaming the west and the opposition will stop the slide. You seem to assume that tourists are not people of sound mind, capable of making their own decisions and reading situations. Question is, do you feel safe even though you are not a tourist?

Consultant, a Kenyan company whos majority shareholder is british just got a tender to work on the metropolis security network, so is it really abt security? I dont think so.

The Govt must improve security such that speculation as to who is causing the bombs to explode, whether al shabaab or usa, is investigated to a point of Kenyans knowing who is truly their enemy no.1. The truth is kenya is unsafe for tourists and locals, hence a less attractive investment destination and only CS Internal security can ensure security.

There is the warning of marking Mombasa as a no go zone for all tourists. Next is reducing Nairobi as a 'no family' station for the embassy and related staff courtesy of the daring robberies in the upmarket areas (Runda, Karen) etc Couple this with the stringent rules for any foreign businessmen setting up very high taxes and demands on starting a business in Kenya etc) Just how much is the West investment in Kenya? How much of it would China be willing to fill in? We could just as well decide to throw them (the West) out and live like Sudan. Nakwani? Si they are still living I rest my case
