Tanzania; Is There A Better Today or Tomorrow?

That question is everywhere in Tanzania.... some are able to speak about their economical pain while others who can't, you can plainly see it from their facial expressions.


Oil prices are never stable, today a hundred higher, tomorrow 50 shilling less, next week it goes over a 50 Shilling higher again. Power supply is never stable, small scale and medium industries, which mainly owned by Tanzanians fail to keep up with the power shortage and the rising cost when using generators, hence a lot of layoffs and fall of these industries.

More people jobless, more young people unemployed...



Just like other East Africa states, mother nature has not been too kind, it has not been the best year in agriculture output. With transportation costs rising at an alarming level, foods reaching the markets become very expensive for many to afford different dishes.


 Majority In Tanzania Are Still Living Under 1 Doller/Per Day
Tanzanians are now more alert with political affairs than ever, they are tired of mere promises, tired of political gestures and politicking! They want a government that listens, acts, plans and implement. 

Tanzanians are angry, but they are holding it inside, hoping everything will pass, a brighter day is on the way... and we all pray for this holding to go on....cause we all know what will happen when it reaches a state of no more.


And as a Tanzanian, I pray for a better future too..a better today is what we all want....but a better 'reachable-tomorrow' is also not a worse deal!!!

Politicians are cautious than ever, yes.. they have realize that the masses are watching.... staying alert than ever...!! Tired of lies, tired of promises of a better tomorrow!!! All Tanzania needs is a better leadership, better policies and better implementation! We got all that it takes to be a middle class economy and beyond!
