How Chinese mafia run a scam factory, KK Park, on the Myanmar-Thai border. Those who refuse to scam, many lured from Africa, face torture, starvation and even murder. It is one of Asia's most brutal scam compounds 1/ 2 dw.com/en/how-chinese…

It's interesting to read comments by many Kenyans regarding immigration abroad in search of jobs. Those statements are mostly not well informed by broad international dynamics. The Kenyan economy has not grown in tandem with increased job demands of a young population. 1/

In the late 90's & early 2000's , enrollment to Universities increased almost exponentially. Many of the students who enrolled were admitted to general courses geared mostly for white collar occupations. That has been the trend since then.Kenya has one of the most educated.. 2/

When you have a disproportionately young educated population & many of their skills are not suited to the economic needs of the country what becomes your default? A highly frustrated relatively young workforce that cannot be deployed productively. Truth be told that... .3/

Within the foreseeable future , Kenya's economy lacks the capacity to absorb the millions of a young workforce whose aspirations include building their careers & supporting their families. It's incumbent upon Kenyans to approach the matter of migrant labour objectively...4/

The young adult population that moves abroad today will in ten years be a formidable force in the local economy from several angles. Whether we concur or not , many families are able to survive back here from remittances coming from abroad. In addition the pool of skills ..5/

US : Perfect salaries. Gun issues and divided society. UK: Easy visa, free education and healthcare. Lower salaries and bad weather. Difficult Permanent Residency. KE is 8hours away. Entry to Europe. Canada: Easy PR and settlement. Free education and healthcare. Gross, deathly

We must stay focused. No nation on earth was ever developed on the back of hand outs. It's unacceptable that taxes from the mwananchi are misappropriated & recycled partially through bursaries. How do you impoverish KE & force citizens to beg?

Many people emigrating to the west in this latest wave of departures are Kenyans in their 40’s and 50’s:IMHO previously,Kenyans used to leave in their youth. Quite jarring to read a colleagues linked in profile and see their new address is Calgary Canada 😳what’s going on?🤔🤔

Frantz Fanon Mihr Thakar They are old enough to remember Kenya in the 90s under SAPs. Old enough to remember how different the trajectories were for those who emigrated back then. Old enough to sense similarities in Kenya in the coming 20s. Old enough to tell when the ship is taking on water...

This is it. The trauma I suffer now is not simply a government that reminds me of the Bokassa era. It's that I'm reliving what I saw in the 90s. Twice in a lifetime is too much.

Luther Thanks Luther for adding rich perspective.Joe must be smiling wherever he is that daktari is back and his TL is taking back its former shape after chasing away Mwithiga&company.

Luther Thank you for the shoutout. We are delighted to know that you are enjoying our services. ^MA
