Quote:
The Cabinet Secretary has also promised total overhaul of the Income Tax Act, signalling a possible increase in income taxes to finance the exchequer.


Quote:
Excise taxes on beer and cigarettes are already subject to inflation-based increases every two years — under a law that was passed three years ago but was also suspended because of possible political repercussions.


Quote:
Petroleum products will start attracting 16 per cent VAT beginning September, a move that will add about Sh17 on every litre of the commodity and is expected to raise up to Sh70 billion in new tax revenues.


Quote:
The single biggest expenditure item is, however, debt service from the Consolidated Fund that will consume half of ordinary revenue in interest payments and settling maturing debt.

Some Sh870.7 billion will be spent on interest payments and redemption of domestic and foreign debt — representing a 43 per cent increase from the Sh608.4 billion in the current fiscal year.

really? that would be very serious considering more are still coming up

But i do not see that many empty spaces in the malls when i visit them . is that figure correct

Anyway yesterday i was at Garden city in the evening and was surprised to see virtually empty car park

How do these businesses survive if they only get people during weekends.

Some are even less than 25%.....examples....Juja city mall, the one opposite T-mall...only houses a bar and a chemist the last time i was there, Thika Gateway mall completely empty and looking for tenants.
But if i were these builders i would have built low - middle income rental flats. Hautakosa wateja.

https://www.standardmedi...to-allow-more-borrowing

Treasury is once again seeking Parliament's nod to reduce the Government's debt by half. The latest initiative does not involve paying off the debt, but changing the law to create room for the Government to borrow more.Treasury wants a change to the Public Finance Management (PFM) Act that would put limits on foreign borrowing only. This would lower Kenya's percentage of debt to Gross Domestic Product (GDP) from the current 49 per cent to 25 per cent. This would effectively offer the Government more room for borrowing. "We are asking for an amendment of the PFM Act to classify only external public guarantee debt to be considered as the ceiling for the purposes of the World Bank Country Policy and Institutional Assessment,” Treasury PS Kamau Thugge said. Dr Thugge said Kenya’s current total debt to GDP stands at 49 per cent, which is still short of the World Bank's recommendation of 74 per cent, the level at which the institution considers debt to be risky.

How so? I fear you might not have understood the implication of the proposed ammendments.
