I notice that majority of the players on this forum who live in Malawi seem to be the rudest and most abusive of the lot. No offence to those who are not like that; and there's a handful of you. But the majority suffer from what I would call sour grapes. You can't have something so you abuse those that do.
I'm not suggesting anything to be done as this is just an observation. It's the same every time I go to Malawi - I get people asking me to give them money, clothes etc and when I don't (how many clothes can I possibly give off my back and my money is hard earned and saved for my holiday) They call me names.
Abre man, Kodi iwe unayesapo kuyang'ana mbali yabwino imodzi ya kuno? Umayankhula ngati mkazi ndipo ndikulumbira apa!!! Mkati mwa buluku lakolo muli mzimayi!!!!

I guess its the same reason, why you guys, you always talk of kuseta nkhalamba. (As if thats the only job for malawians living abroad).
If youre fighting a priest, use a sword (lupanga) becuase you will make him think he is fighting a 'holy war'. If you fight him with guns, he will think ndi iwe wachifwaba. Muchidule, fight fire with fire.
Have you ever thought why you have never heard anybody saying 'wakuba amene anabwela ku den anandipashikila boo or bava yomwe ya ndibela ndiyowoneka boo or yosamba'. Why? Thats your assignment.

I was responding to the topic below. But on the issue that Abre or Abdul kaya Pandor satha chichewa - Izo ndizakanso. I know he can pick up some words,though, because he has responded to chichewa postings. But dont worry about him, he will learn it fast, because ndiwadyela ndikuyakha ma postings aliwonse. I care less for pple who say chichewa chimandibvuta or sinditha kuphika nsima. Ndinamumanapo nsima somebody, because he told me that he couldnt cook nsima. I tried to teach him, but he looked like mbuli in Algebra class. I told him to fix himself whatever he can, but nsima yanga toto.

I'm not even going to bother about the above comment since I can't understand it.
But my point still stands. Make a comment about ideas or discourse and no one has anything to say, but put out some cheap gossip and all the morons come out of the woodwork to give their two-bit worthless opinions about it. They know themselves. I mean who the hell put up that gossip about the Manda's, and how is that important knowledge. Great that JRC removed it.
Malawi. I'm ashamed of my own people. Ashamed! They are shallow, obstinate, superstitious, un-elightened philistines. Always ready to yell out to defend their idiocy. I'm not sure whether it's the reason Malawi is poor and stupid or the other way round. Even Zimbabweans and Zambians and Mozambicans laugh at Malawi for being shallow.
What I do know is that Kamuzuism has a part in all of this. My first days in Malawi I was taken aback by the level of ignorance to the rest of the world. Only America has that level of ignorance but they can get away with it because they are rich. They all thought that South Africa was the pinnacle of modernity - well a lot of them still do. The effect of kamuzuism and censorship and fear that Malawi was subject to is still there in the society and it seems more and more pronounced every time I visit the country.

This is a blue lie,am afraid it is coming from someone with a media degree.Cross check with those countries and you will be shocked most of their big office positions are held by Malawians, and in Zambia a Malawian ruled that country for a long time.Check facts before exposing your own shallow brain.

I don't know what that means but I can guess that it isn't too flattering. On the other hand it is great to see people stand up to defend their country from the likes of us that hate it. Or rather think it's a dump.

You dont hate it its just your opinion comes from a negative angle.If Malawi is a dump so what,its a road to the way out.

I think the solutions to most Africa's problems and that includes Malawi is a political one. It's a top down solution. Still, it has to be instigated by the people at the bottom. Be it street vendors or farmers.
One of the problems is we have a very bad taxation system. So politicians don't really care about the man on the street. Nor does the man on the street care about the politicians. People don't pay taxes so they don't really care what the govt spend the money on. The government relies on aid anyway so it would rather please the west who give them money than the people in Malawi who don't.

Abre I do agree with you on taxation system in Malawi and who it benefits.The locaal pipo has little or no knwledge about our tax system.We need to teach the pipo from the village, vendors upto the indians.This shpuld be done in our local language with posters sent to every chief.
The other problem which need to be tackled is corruption in the tax bodies,there are alot of under charging of invoices from the importers,invasion by the Tanzanians and many asians who have taken advantage of a lowly paid tax colletor.
I went to tanzania and I was pleased to see how local business pipo could encourage you to pick a caah sale for the sake of TRA.
