I think Kenyans have been having it nice for a long time. I once visited the UK and a Pub we went to refused to sell us beer at 11pm. Infact at 10.45pm they dimmed the lights and asked us to finish before 11pm coz that is what the law says. They said the counter was closed.
I was also shocked when a supermarket refused to sell us beer on a Sunday morning (11am). They told us that beer sales at the supermarket start at 2pm. And anyone looking like they are under 25yrs have to produce an ID to prove their age before they are sold alcohol.....even in supermarkets.

Karibu Rwanda (www.kariburwanda.com)-
Not only don't we drink all hours Bralirwa is decent enough to sell varieties of beer with 6.2% (muntzig), 7% (turbo).. so you don't leave all your money in the bar...
Kenyans in Rwanda are always on the party..
There is a Kenyan here who opened a bar in one of the neighbourhoods... last week the place was so packed with people.. his neighbour, also a bar owner came asking whether there was a wedding...
Straying further off topic.. buy bralirwa shares.

I do not like this piece of legislation. History will not remember you for your IQ. It will remember you for what you did. “Genius is 1 percent inspiration, 99 percent perspiration.” Thomas Edison
