Noo. I hope it will after I have my grand kids

Why ?

rvp2018:
I think they are different. Ethiopia Industrial parks are gov owned industries - Ethiopia gov get some land and build the warehouses - and then invite manufacturers. I think it doesn't matter if you're exporting or not. It would be similar to KIA - Kenya industrial Estates - which mainly deal with small cottage industries.

Kenya Industrial parks are mainly privately sector driven.

I think the big private ones under development are the likes of Tatu, Infinity, Northland, RiverPearls(Eldoret),Tilisi and such.

Then we have EPZs - biggest being in Athi (built by both public/gov & private sector) - although many private industries can apply and become EPZ - these are industries created mainly for exports - anywhere in the country. There are more than 80 SEZs in Kenya doing around 700M dollars.worth of exports.

Gov plans to do what Ethiopia would be completing the Leather Industrial park in Athi, Naivasha Industrial park and Dongo Kundu one. I am not sure how far the gov should go - maybe just providing the horizontal infrastructure would be good - and private sector - chinese - can come and build the factories.

So while we can learn a lot from Ethiopia public sector driven manufacturing - Ethiopia is a long way from Kenya's private sector manufacturing.

I get the difference
They confuse me industrial parks , export processing zones, special economic zones

And electricity too, very cheap

Yes you have cheap electricity
Kenya electricity is expensive
Did that mega dam of yours get completed

TayserMahri:
Ednited! Thats the OG, see a bunch of Africans reacting to the song unfortunately there was no Ethiopian. Most Ethiopians dont have this OG vibe which is possibly why you dont like it.

Good in stuff....haaaas. who are the maasai?

You don't know the maasai

@tylann too,

Then why were you guys arguing in the 'industrial parks' thing? I found it really hard to believe that it stayed on my mind for long.

Sure Kenya has industrial parks. . .but is it equal or higher than Ethiopia has? (in number)

Ethiopia has more industrial parks than kenya
You just launched a new one recently
Kenya has export processing zones i dont know if it is the same thing as industrial parks
Labour in Ethiopia is cheap that is why industrial parks are developing in ethiopia very fast
In kenya labour is a bit expensive

Nigeria paid to qualify for 2010 worldcup.
n another interview with Al Jazeera, Perumal confessed to have helped Nigeria qualify for the World Cup in South Africa through his links in the Harambee Stars camp.

He flew to Nairobi a day before Kenya hosted the Super Eagles at Kasarani stadium on November 14, 2009 to seal the deal.

“I’ve got two or three players in the Kenyan team and they’ll ensure Nigeria win on the day … two of them were starting in the match while one was on the bench, I spoke to the players and they agreed to help Nigeria win,” he revealed.

As predicted, Nigeria ran away 3-2 winners to book a ticket to the World Cup in South Africa as group “B” leaders after Mozambique shocked favourites Tunisia 1-0.

Corruption

ednited:
TPLF keeps borrowing money saying for food. . . then to their pocket.

When Tanzania refused, at least the givers know that it hasn't reached the needy. In Ethiopia, TPLF even borrows and throw the money wherever they want to. Now we are going to pay for what they have had

I mean the Tanzanian govt refused to give food aid to citizens who were experiencing food crisis

Corruption is everywhere you know

vaxx:
i agree with you a hundred percent.

Yeah African guys know how to pound
That thing

The white are crazy aet of people. do you know most of this whites ladies dates the ghetto boys whenever they came for a visit. you see them hanging out with an ukept ghetto boy smoking weed and smelling bad. And you can't even imagine what they really see in them.

The d*ck

mtisTheQubit:
Tanzania burned alive 6,400 chicks from Kenya..what slowpokes they are

It is just jealousy nothing more
They fear kenya for no good reason

ednited:
Refusing is better. What do you call it if the government received and put it in its pocket? That is TPLF.

The evil TPLF

It is not better
Tplf is evil.

ednited:
I knew he had fans in here. I just don't like him.

Did you just shared this pic because I said he has no Kenya vibe?? kikikiki

This man was singing in English while the Rwandan was using his language. Leave alone dressing, because he is a rapper. . . but I just don't see Africa in him

People have different styles
Many Kenyan artists sing in Swahili or they local language
Anyway it is not a must you like him
People have different tastes you know

ednited:
Whhhattt?? Are you serious??

Kazikazi, say something on this cuz I have always assumed Tanzanian leader as an inspiration because I have heard how he works and cleans the road like a random citizen. Am I mistaken?

What type of dictator is he? So people migrate to avoid the slum behind them

Okay okay let's say it's true. How about Dar es selam? Dar has beautiful figures. . .why not shoot there

He cleaned the road once when he got into power
The next thing he did is shooting the opposition leader
The guy was in ICU in Nairobi for months
Since he came to power Tanzania human rights record has detoriated rapidly
There is nothing wrong in shooting a video in a slum
It is not must you shoot a video in beautiful places

vaxx:
That is pathetic.

The ghetto in Ghana arguably produce most of the hit track in the country. it is a small jamaica on its own.

In kenya we have slum tourism

Tanzanian government once refused food aid
While tanazanians on the ground were experiencing food shortages

ednited:
Sorry but you guys have this rapper whom I have watched in Coke last year. He is annoying. He did this collabo with Rwandan singer and I didn't like him. He has no Kenya vibe and all. I tried to like him but I couldn't

Forgot his name. . .he is famous tho

Kenya has many mediocre artists i will agree with you

I bet you are talking about khaligraph jones
He picks up beefs with everyone

XhosaNostra:
I can only take your word since I've never been to Kenya. But here I know it's a thing with most shack dwellers, which is why they catch fires easily.

.
Most slums in kenya are made of iron sheets
When they burn they burn like hellfire

mtisTheQubit:
we have ..like this one..

Ile industrial park ya eldoret kuliendaje

ednited:
And using drugs too. . .

What type of youth do they think they are making. They are only thinking business but nothing else. It scares me where we are all going

Our culture is spoiled now. Our new artists here are also making some uncomfortable lyrics and inappropriate dressing. And who said you can't get on top with no bling bling?

I bet you never heard kenyan youth songs

XhosaNostra:
Most are covered with papers inside That's a South African "thing".

I have seen such in kenya too

ednited:
Is it true that you have no industrial parks

Vicious rumour not true at all

Omarion -distance official video


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QE8xVcMUQEI

how I wish many African Artists make a video clip like this rather than focusing on materials. I have heard Tanzanian artists moving to South Africa to make video clips. Some other African Artists move to New York to make clips. But Africa is rich in culture and beautiful landscape. . . let us use it appropriately to introduce our culture like Omarion did to South Africa. And also introduce art with nature

Many artists think flashy cars , skyscrapers
Goldchains throwing around money will make they songs sell

mtisTheQubit:
y'ave no idea what some slums are made of ...just say your gov is strict on some stuff

she should pay a visit to kibra
Kibera is at least ushawahi enda kasabun

mtisTheQubit:
have seen that tylann ..some of ths guys pretend to be poor but nah they are loaded...they dont want to get out of the ghetto coz for them its comfortable an stuff an when there is fire break out its all about sherikali saidia ..what a dang

Some of them are poor but most of them are pretenders

NairobiWalker:
I would gladly screw some pretty damsel in one of those gorgeous green fields.

I totally agree with you

mtisTheQubit:
totally in agreement..the slums dont make sense an the fake landlords dont hard value to our economy

Those people pretend to be poor
Ingia kwa nyumba ya MTU uone majabu
TV plasma hapo home theatre
Fridge hapo
And then they shout they are poor

mtisTheQubit:
i dont get it mresh..you guys are beating us on some key manufacturing sectors (ya alreay manufacturing phones an masses) but ya got ths other side which to me is crazy..i wish i can show you my internet connetion speed..y drop dead..

Those big phones i hear are manufactured in Ethiopia
Ethiopia will become a manufacturing hub of Africa very soon

XhosaNostra:
No electricity just water for survival. There wouldn't be a point for electricity in places like that because they're temporary dwellings, known here as "Squatter camps"

Kenya slums have electricity
And water for survival
As you say it

How i wish those slums to be demolished

ednited:
When you even go to the bank to take money out, they tell ya 'No system".

You can't take your money out sometimes because of network issue. Loosing a tourist because of this telecom?!

Ethiopian tourist minister and telecom minister. . . ARE YOU READDDIINNNNGGGG

So mobile money doesn't work in ethiopia

ednited:
Competition is always good. When you compete, you will try to get better than the other team.

Ethio telecom is alone! The manager is a very hard working women but I don't care . . .the network sucks. It SUUUUCCCKKKSSS!

I think I am going to start crying. Even the Ethiopian software engineers are having hard time introducing their apps! e-commerce doesn't exist, I dare say!!!

That is not good at all
At this age and time
