In those 7yrs - Kenya GDP has grown from 60B to 110B.
RSA GDP is stuck at 350B.
In 2014 - Kenya GDP was 9 times less.
Now it three times less.
Now I know you have very bad education
But surely if you use simple projection - the next 15yrs - Kenya GDP could rise to 350B
And South Africa will remain stuck at 330B.

Two important concepts you need to grasp
1) Middle Income/class trap in South Africa.
2) Leapfrogging happening in Kenya. Kenya is nearly nailing all the key ingredients for take off. Economic growth is not linear..most of the time it assume hockey stick shape......then it plateaus..like South Africa and even crash.

There are pre-conditions that a country need to meet - before it get lift off ground. It's like flying a plane....you stay on the running away until you're overcome driff and you vroom! like Uganda finance minister once exclaimed

This what happened in South Asian tigers. This is how China has taken off. Veitnam is happening as we speak. Kenya could be next.

In those 7yrs - Kenya GDP has grown from $64bn to $110bn.

I see middle class estate. Few big houses but general estate is middle class. It's not upper class. But of course being a primitive west african that is too much for your brain.

obaaderemi:
Can you post any credible source that proves your GDP is up to $110bn? Thanks.

jl115:
you've made this same ret@rded statement over and over firstly SAs gdp nominal is $410 billion after its rebase.....

Also where is Kenya?

These new trains coming to Nigeria for the Lagos high speed rail Network,
trains built for US of A in 2012
But massive corruption by the Us state govt grounded the trains and they were never used.
Talgo 8series with Speed of 75mph 200-250km
600 sits
2 have been bought.
The train though high speed is ugly


Lagos is developing well, slowly but surely

The team ain't Useless but the GFA is.

And yes, it will very soon be a political suicide for any govt to give money to the GFA..
They camped in Qatar because GFA hasn't built a great camping village despite all of FIFA money and govt money.

Konza is not dead.
It's the Africa silicon valley of the near future.
It's not just any other city.

The biggest casualties here are the Ayew brothers. I was thinking they would be able to do something their papa couldn't do, win the Afcon.
It's not probable Andre will be at the next Afcon.

rvp2018:
Yes KAIST is great move - hope more research institution will go to Konza - and then tech companies - that would create a silicon valley like synergy.

Uhuru opens semiconductor chips factory in Nyeri

The global value chain is monopolised by the US, starting with the first step of research and development, followed by the second step in Asia where the silicon ingots are cut into wafers.

In the third step the blank wafers are completed as finished wafers in the US, then in the fourth step the finished wafers are cut into dies in the US. In step five the dies are assembled, tested and packaged in Asia.

From there in step six the final product is shipped for inventory to China, where it is integrated into step seven as a consumer good by end-product assembly and it is shipped to the US in step eight for end product marketing to the global customer.

thiba irrigation scheme

Current production is about 25,000 acres which is one crop per year and it is being expanded to 35,000 acres for two crops per year.
It will be expanded through construction of the Thiba dam which is being built in Kirinyaga county at a cost of Sh8.2 billion.

Construction of Thiba Dam in Kenya, which will help secure the year round water supply for the country’s agriculture. The 40 m tall and 1 km long dam being built about 130 km northeast of the Kenyan capital of Nairobi creates a reservoir that will allow a second harvest every year in the surrounding cultivable area.

The beauty of having well diversified economy - domestic tourism save kenya tourism sector in 2021.

Visitor arrivals +53% to 870,467

Inbound receipts +65% to Sh146.5 bn

However, Q1 2021 tourism earnings were just 43% of Q1 2020.

You can't handle the truth. You will be reduced to calling us little Indians and other obaboon shenanigans. Give it a rest man!

You make it the third little Indian who failed to back up the claim. Typical apes.

kikuyu1:


Waffas,observe how stats are collated by the relevant authority mainly from airport traffic,hotel receipts,immigration entry and exit points etc,etc. There are people whose sole function is to collate and interrogate such stats unlike you guys where recently released Sakawa boys and Okadamen are labelled as tourists stumbling off the plane in Accra,Abuja and Lagos.

gallivant:


Nobody got time for monkey business.
