    Economic forecast for the year 2023

    In beginning my forecast for the year 2023, allow me to draw your attention to the perils of 2022. What many hoped would be the year that the global economy arose entirely from the doldrums of COVID, presented a successive and almost as equally disruptive shock to economies around the world. Early in the year...

    The Common Framework: Guiding principle to Zambia’s debt treatment

    Introduction Followers of the Zambian economy’s debt engagements will have read or heard reference to the G20 Common framework. The arrangement serves as the guiding principle to the Group of 20, who are the 20 largest economies in the world, in dealing with debt crises in poorer nations. A relatively new initiative, launched in the...

    The Zambian electric car “value chain” fantasy

    Have you seen how crazy we Zambians have gone over electric cars? Zambians are convinced that we can make some of the components that go into electric cars, mainly batteries and there is a gold rush to mine Lithium in rural areas. Sorry to burst your bubble, but it is a fantasy. Want to know...

    Team Red fails its first big test

    So, after all that braggadocio about ending load shedding, the "New Dawn" administration has failed to "fix it" and are doing damage control with lots of egg on their faces. They have been giving endless explanations for their failure to fix load shedding. Among the explanations, acts of God, it's the fault of PF, missing...

    Why Hichilema is adored abroad but a disappointment at home

    Despite his lack of significant domestic achievements and rising discontentment with his leadership in Zambia, President Hakainde Hichilema has a remarkably positive image abroad. There are two major reasons for this. The first is that Hichilema, who came to power in August 2021, is benefiting from a favourable comparison to what came before him and...

    Load shedding is an act of man (and how to fix the power problem)

    The government is making some rather laughable statements that the current load shedding which officially began on 15th December 2022 is beyond their control and an act of God. Well, God does not control the human made systems that allow electricity to flow into our homes and businesses. Perhaps what they mean is that the...

    Our Extreme National Poverty is the Blessing we Need to Reinvent Ourselves into a Happy Prosperous People!

    It is true that most desperate people resort to desperate means, to escape their desperation. Until life escapes our bodies, we humans have the capacity to manufacture infinite options to escape suffering, pain and death. Funny, it is also true that this desperation, treated as doing what is necessary to overcome threats to our lives...

    A false dawn? Be worried, Zambia

    After coming to power via a democratic election, President Hakainde Hichilema and the ruling UPND have manipulated the Electoral Commission of Zambia and the judicial process to exclude key opposition candidates from the ballots taking place today. At the heart of these manoeuvres is the fear of defeat to the excluded candidates and the desire...
