The Standard e-Paper
Kenya's Bold Newspaper
The Standard Group Plc is a
multi-media organization with investments in media platforms spanning newspaper
print operations, television, radio broadcasting, digital and online services. The
Standard Group is recognized as a leading multi-media house in Kenya with a key
influence in matters of national and international interest.
I doubt the next five years under President Uhuru Kenyatta will be easy for Kenyans unless he is able to align the public wage bill to the gold standard 25 per cent of ordinary revenue, which would save the country over Sh500 billion annually. It is this money that he would use to put measures in place to create employment.
This money would be used to build special economic zones (SEZs) around the country as affirmative action for the African industrialist. Manufacturing in Kenya is racially one-sided, which distorts prices and creates artificial inflation due to collusion among a few selected players in cement, steel, hardware and plastics among other sectors.
