MK happily hands over US$1M aid to Japan and in the same breath declares famine a national disaster! We have people dying in NE, E and upper rift.... yet, we can afford to dish out 82M to a developed country.... We have people in tents for years, we have children missing school because we do not have enough classrooms and teachers....... many bright children missing form 1 entry because of lack of school fees.... and then we feel this philanthropic?

Yaani hata kama it is "re-investing"... I think they'd respect us more if we tried to sort out our domestic problems first... why give them and go back to them on our knees in January that we do not have fertilizer for our farmers? NKT

Will we ever learn?

I've never seen someone become poorer for helping a friend in need neither have i seen someone so rich he does not want to be given. Remember the poor woman gave what she had with a very clean heart and you know what happened. The same MK told us to remember the role God has played in our country healing process and i think it might be a way of giving back.

Only KShs 82m when we have returned a whole KShs 140b - repeat KShs 140b - to treasury because we are satisfied it has no use mle mashinani? Of course we can afford this small sum!
Mungu atusaidie.

what kenya did was something good whether kenya is poorer than japan or any other country should not arise.

The hand that gives receives more.Japan has for long assisted Kenya in so many ways and giving them a small token was a sign that we care about them.

May be i dont quite get it... i have no problem with giving.... what i am not sure about is if it is very responsible when you are giving, when your own people are dying of hunger - literally.
