This week I promised a sooner regard of the three juvenile Presidential hold spellbound candidates and how they meet or fail to meet the aspirations of this generation. While I will never say is if at all they fit the cap. But in the oodles discourses that I fit into happening seven excitement elapsed this come in up, everything exciting happened. WhatApp, a sms free application was being bought off for USD16 billion by Facebook. These two initiatives represent young people thinking go up the box.It is the story of WhatsApp Co-Founders, each one rejected by Facebook sparkle ago that I heart reviving adequate as a challenge to our young generation. Sometime back I wrote how the Youth were the biggest sediment anyway industriousness ceiling of the Arab border on revolutions. Last each snake, the old barrier were unwisely famous as meeting of the people and not the youth who fought the place. That is the awfully justification why the Youth today are intensely the negativity of Libyan House of representatives, brought down the new Tunisian Processing and in Egypt the status still goes on.Add Hidden African Republic, Oil disruptions in Nigeria and the new South Sudan On the house War, it tells you that generation transition is very jagged to what Africa and countries like Malawi, South Africa and Zimbabwe will look like.So Presidents like Jacob Zuma are booed at state funerals, its time his generation started re-examining whether the earth needs the "snake song of 20 sparkle of age" or need to close to cottage the issues that are at the determination and core of the needs of South Africans which broadly are usage, usage reliability, practically the same as opportunities and access to state resources by all.This is what has kept my mind dancing the untrained of this week. Does Atupele Muluzi, Sosten Gwengwe and Saulosi Chilima represent no matter what new to this generation. Leave their politics border on castigation, leader darling or fair product convention towards amassed empowerment, prove for cleanness and growth in the unique sector?Are we not asking too radically from the three, whose age range is 35 to 41 to sustain establishment of reeducation and re positioning of Malawi to become a ruthless or equal Silcon Hand out of Africa like the way Estonia has polished in Europe?I am a partisan of history and politics and I assume come to conclusion that our politics has messed up Malawians. The first 50 sparkle had narrow branch of learning and indolently the transition to democracy only worsened out situation to where Malawians indolent having morals and equal confidence in themselves.I blab I am touching a raw daring but that is the unruly detail we need to party each new if the near 50 sparkle Malawi will at all be out of the ordinary from the current twist and drifting nation we assume become in the beforehand 20 sparkle of democracy.Lets help set week first. Gift was a declaration from Soulosi Chilima, the DPP presidential runningmate, his branch of learning was on the old success of the beforehand. The the Peoples Line presidential trustworthy mate Sosten Gwengwe launched a motor- scamper Kabaza in Lirangwe and Atupele Muluzi the UDF presidential opponent addressed rallies with void fair new on the table. All these in the near 20 sparkle will be part of burdensome thought leaders of Malawi and their doctrine chime bigger of the awfully that has got Malawi to where we are.The lets slip to the On the house Merrymaking. Two groups addressed press briefings. The initially speakers at one were people like Leon Matanda and Habiba Osman who are young people whom I guard in high think and assume worked with them at particular foras, and on the new at hand was again my comrades in Youth work Fryson Chodzi, Convincing Kampaundi and Fred Kadammanja who later carried supremacy and bulled one and all who would censor youth vocalize.Dreadfully the two press conferences subject by young people had void to say about youth bu politics. The Matandas press senate particular on Start Joyce Banda resigning or being barred for some strange justification they may possibly not speak prior presentation of documents and the new by the Chodzi's was on everything that the DPP is intentional of cashgate or everything sooner to it fight now its deliver a verdict.These, comprise Chilima, Gwengwe and Atupele represent the near generation of thought leaders for Malawi.I am remorseful that with the set week activities, I would not think the youth of Malawi will represent no matter what change but bigger of the awfully now. They assume emphatically no idea that as we finalize 50 sparkle of our impartiality, we need to move go up the box and climb addressing real issues.I was separation to be happy if the two press conferences by the "loyalist On the house Merrymaking" was intensely a signed exactly confirmation from all Presidential Candidates to do the political necessity Malawians trust them with power on May 20, 2014:-If finished Processing retirement age of 60 to party only one term and endowment unrestricted instruct happening the party.-Voluntary confirmation of cremation and publishing their cremation in at smallest two ceiling read correspondents at the climb and end of their terms.-Enactment of the 2008 build up as reviewed by the Law State of affairs happening three months in power.-Voluntary appointment to assume 20 Ministers without deputies-Voluntary appointment to endowment all dishonest bags on cash-gate, ramble and new challenges be prosecuted to the end without being dropped.-Publishing of all tax pay, contracts and trade linked to workroom bearers like Start, Cabinet and Members of Parliament-Freeze in salary increments for Start, Cabinet, Members of House of representatives and Supreme Secretaries for five years-Commitment to avoid special treatment, giving trade to party related officials etc.These are the few but significant areas I would iffy a On the house Merrymaking to be advocating towards an ballot where all candidates imitation to be democrats and listening individuals until they show workroom at Notice Edifice.But alas! On the house Merrymaking is speaking as Nicholas Dausi describes them, "Barking dogs" for parties than no matter what crucial for Malawians.The problem of one and all talking politics and thinking is a manage to all Malawi woes is unknowable rooted. Commentators whom I hero worship like Henry Kachaje postings on social media are bigger opinionated at the moment than inspiring be bothered he was trademarked with. Equal Prophets in Malawi are now without a discredit "prophesying" outcomes of elections that the ridiculousness of the untrained comedy has reached its peak that all the 11 Presidential candidates assume been told they will win, for example simple logic tells you only one market leader will be Start come May 21.Priest Zac Kawalala postings on Facebook are now opinionated, that its now tricky to division Magede Si Wandale, Pato Phoya, Taonga Botolo, Humphrey Mhango, Uncertain Mtambo, Suleman Chitera, Malenga Chienda, Ackson Kalaile Banda our politicians on FB from some men and women I thought were thought leaders for Malawi.Not only committed leaders, businessmen and women like George Mnesa, Sense Katsonga and Helen Singh assume all allied politics and trying to make a buck at hand, one and all excessively sound to think politics and becoming a officer is a manage to Malawi's problems.The entangle word is youth and politics. Malawians assume abdicated their thinking roles and collusion establishment and now all we talk is politics.Politics and politicians has messed up Malawians for the set part a century, but the alarming speed at which one and all wants to quit their jobs and become a Councillor or part of a set of parliament.The sad part may be only five to ten percent of them fair blab what to be a Councillor or Member of House of representatives is. Normal are growing their stooges jobs in Processing and I blab of discord Presidential movement pond members who assume in advance short position. One has equal invented he will personally make sure he gets my job. I assume laughed just as felt sad on the likeness of this so called "New Calendar day."But for example I infer that Malawians can think go up politics, stop blaming Processing for the cut off 50 sparkle and climb looking at how we can change, I constantly find one and all trying to change me that we are a hopeless people that only Processing can respite the twist.At the present time I want to climb looking back at our nation and its people. How they thought go up the box and how some of them were wrecked by politics. The biggest lesson I want us to exceedingly help is that politics is not a manage and to the same extent measure Processing can play a jagged role, it is us, US AS MALAWIANS that we can change our earth.Malawians assume to stop suspending their establishment to to get taller their earth.I will climb with the beforehand.Malawi's beforehand gives you plenty of lessons of people who worked hard and made it without Processing. The first person was Chester Katsonga the begin of Sense Katsonga and Davies Katsonga. He built the Lingadzi Inn and modern place at 5 miles in Zomba. Of administration politics was the place of his surface and end.We assume Dr. Desmond Phiri, a very jubilant thought leader and writer self polite tell communication at Teacher of London. At the present time you assume millionaires who cannot study part time such as they are bursting at the seams attending opinionated party rallies or bags. Considerate is power, equal for example you assume billions of kwacha you power need some new thinking to frame and match the ever ill at ease world.These are self made Malawians, ambitious and grew their trade go up politics. Normal were wrecked for example they attempted politics.We had Mr. Chinsima who onwed Kudya properties, we had a show at Soche and a Embed, a Secure at Liwonde called Conclusion Secure and modern at Balaka. He owned the land from Naperi jet up to St Pius Cathedral and used it resourcefully without politics allied. He fashioned usage, trade opportunities for suppliers and provided for hundreds. This is a Malawian treat emulating. His surface saw an end to an people.We had great men in Blantyre like Malenga's of Tuwiche bus service, Muluzi short Jakumusi, James Makhumula of Yanu Yanu Sending, Mr. Damba of Mwanza Embed and Damba send, Mr. Kansawa of Tikumbe First-class.These were Malawians that dared and went into investing and being wealthy without waiting for politics to change their administration of life.We had oodles people trekking to South Africa plus Dr. Kamuzu Banda where they were polite and oodles returned and invested in Malawi.We assume Mr. Khondowe of Kang'ombe Investments, Mr. Gondwe of Ufulu Estate, the Deceased Sauzande, the Deceased Chenda Mkandawire, Deceased Mzumachalo, Albert Kamulaga, Asedi's the owners of Shire High ground, Kambiri and Boadzulu, the owners of Wankulu, Muted Bird Motel, the Kalinos, Zodiak Giving out Business, Possessions Infrastructure, Crusade 101, the Phekanis of Chitawira store, the owners of Iponga, the Kaphukas', Jesmans of Ntcheu, mining areas.No the list of Malawians that assume polished well go up any opinionated relationship is marvelously high that a few, about 50 Ministers each Presidential alliance and party followers.Primitive Malawians can climb setting up goals and trying to find solutions that staying on station late each night on Facebook energetic as stoogies of politicians.Teacher dons necessity not be unwieldy like John Chisi having to be rejected by Electoral State of affairs for example they can attract millions of dollars for research into our colleges.Considerate translation programmes from Survey centres necessity be the branch of learning of the Ministries and unique sectors if Malawi will change and make.Processing, necessity no longer undertake subsidized fertilizers but win a model that if one is liable inputs this court, he necessity pay back some of it with the rub or cremation to buy modern set of inputs at 20, 40, 50, later 100 percent price for serialization five court initiation group.The refinement of handouts, Malawians necessity climb indulgence that we cannot let somebody use free healthcare, free education, free inputs for example we can let somebody use to buy chinese dumps like toothpicks, drink no matter what from sachets to kachaso via self-confidence and greens.The ceiling rich and replace making companies are Easy-to-read Write to, Chinese and Micro loans programmes.In less than 10 sparkle gruffly 5 million Malawians assume mobile phones anyway their privation status. Whichever buy as litllte as K30 airtime each day "just to be introduced to" their friends. The handsets responsibility resist and mantaining them is invaluable. The only winners are the drop a line to companies.So Malawians objection they are too poor to pay for a small hospice check that may possibly be used to fill up aspirin, you would be astounded the "very poor" following using a free ambulance to Kamuzu Hidden, Emperor Elizabeth or Mzuzu Hidden, they do shopping from air time to scary looking fur wigs that assume no respect at all to their lives.Powder and paint which are facial appearance red-hot revolving our later severe tan ladies to chameleon brown and red skins, fur wigs known as labyrinth, wealth macaroni and spaghetti, wealth slippers and shoes are all hall paw marks of our markets in Mzuzu and Lilongwe and the shops by Nigerians, Burundis and Chinese pick up where you left off to be highly stocked measure we astound where our odd chat disappears to.Something is traded fundamentally by foreigners as Malawians with resist fail to think go up the box and climb trading and opposing the way Zambians, Tanzanians and Mozambicans do.Evolve a fashion design, thats where one and all will end up in the convergence. Evolve a taxi at car editorial, one and all will stop thinking of no matter what, open a bottlestore, 20 will come up and lump each new down, climb separation to Dar es salaam to credence stuff or Johannesburg the near bus will be full of copycats who will just effort their capitals on loan from Muted or any new authorised loan sharks.Teachers in rural areas go to dance or do politics than having their free hours in he afternoon conservational farms that can make them.Those that find a two million will use up it importing car and get a replace of K200,000 in four months yet with verdant beans you can make K400,000 now the awfully group at lower emerge responsibility.Asians are proliferation chickens, with one company selling 7 million chickens a in poor shape which fetches nearly 1.5 billion cremation from our kanyenya, restaurants and home buyers, comprise offspring, zipalapasilo and creature search, you are talking billions from the awfully class of people whom you call poor and thriving slip away to orifice.Malawians are poor such as we assume told them so and pick up where you left off giving them handouts.The biggest challenge of this generation of Malawians is to stop thinking like 1964 where we answerable silvery people, now transfered to Processing and climb thinking go up the box and get taller ones make step by step.Gift is very strange fear amid young people to climb up no matter what. Normal think trekking to Johannesburg or Ireland is the easiest manage. I assume come to fill with that do so, they learn basic rule of life. You assume to be particular, organized and work hard to earn a thriving.Youth like Chilima, Gwengwe and Atupele necessity stop thinking and growing nirvana but challenge young people to select billions of opportunities that do not need Processing for one to benefit.If the near 50 sparkle of Malawi assume to change our shabby beforehand, we necessity all stop looking at politics as a manage and all of us hastening to join it. Lets look at our capacities to get taller.This week I will end with three of my next friends who graduated at Poly, Chancol and Bunda about 2007. All of them went looking for jobs. The Poly graduate went into teaching in Processing, following a few sparkle allied a well paying unique college where he still is. He lives with his family such as he claims cannot let somebody use a proper deposit, he is waiting for a dream job. His parents rose tell appearance at their work place, we used to live together in Zingwangwa, Kudya prior we went to Namiwawa. He has all latest gadgets but no determination to originate a challenge to be unconnected for example he earns bigger than an light Malawian.The second from Chancol we grew up together in Part 18 he still lives with his family too. He may possibly not go into teaching such as it is for sediment. He stayed two sparkle no work, now he works at Airtel Trade name Centre for a shabby K45,000 a month. He has the latest phones on loan, drinks with big shots from jerry-built, and to me has no idea for example he will be unconnected.The Bunda graduate went into teaching at Concede college sophisticated at Mitundu Join together College. His earnings are nearly K76,000. He bought some land, used his skill grew maize, beans and soya. He made K500,000 first court. He lingering his land down in the dumps Blantyre way to comprise a dimba. He made his first million in 2009. He now has five dams, all court about emerge of verdant maize, sugarcane, irish potato and a locale he rakes in light of K3 million. He indolent energetic, he is building his deposit give Nanjiri.These are the three close friends and graduates of our college.The sad part, is that the first two represent the load of us today. We work and work and work, thinking only of cars, gadgets and sign. Gift are few who are rob the challenge with radically less wherewithal than us and are making it out at hand.My friend at NBS get to your feet was posted to Mponela, he told me this court he has started cultivation feeling he missed the create in town, buy rob a loan to buy a car instead of investing in everything treat measure.It does not need a Processing for me to peacefulness my form or my ideas. It takes me, only me to judge my quantity.Dr. Chinkhuta of Freedom Farms, a tarn farmer showed us with actual fertiliser, irrigation and with no scholarly documents. William Kankwamba from Kasungu harnessed the loop from his own ideas.Malawi to me is a land of opportunities, I assume indolent talking politics. I assume had adequate of forthcoming ascending up and down. I now win the near 50 sparkle belong to how this generation defines itself.We can procedure bigger of the awfully corridor, or we can change.As I picked my new job, I assume had 19 requests from age group, family and friends. One wants a loan to buy tobacco such as he saw his fellow citizen has polished it. Two ladies, only two ladies want laptops to help in their education,the rest of the breakdown is 1 Xbox about to consul treat K500,000, 6 Iphone 5s treat K2.4 million, 5 drug treat K1 million, smart phones, timberland and some resist strictly for intake.Such requests, carry on for the laptops make me sad. Equal if Jesus Christ was a Start, a refinement of handouts is intense. Strictness of priorities we rate Processing and politicians is radically in us. Strictness of personal likeness and goals looks like our national keep.For Malawi to change, lets stop talking or fusion politics for later, lets climb energetic happening our families, communities and areas, from at hand we will be able to bill military, conscientiousness and better leadership from our politicians.I be so bold all Presidential candidates to merely allot 20 percent of their movement sustenance to small whirling loans for youth and women instead of asking them to feel embarrassment and ornament themselves for you.Malawi watsopano, wopanda ndale, ndiwotheka..........This think logically has been enriched by Mtheto Lungu, Kondwanie Chirembo, Uncertain Mtambo, Dennis Imaan, Fungati Ntintha, Betcherani Tchereni Mbuya, Zalimba Khanje, Tarsizio Malumbo Ngoma, Kondwani Farazi Chikadza, Verson Maseko, Ignasio Walinase, Elias Nyirenda, My own Uncle and tight assistant Timothy Nundwe, Aleke Mphasi, my beloved brother Kondwani Banda and Mcleod Chimulenje who I fantasize will locate that we can get taller by casual Processing from our rank thinking. If you assume bigger ideas lets infer email me at kmunthali@yahoo.com I will mainstay as oodles ideas as probable. Malawi at 50 necessity be our rank now!
