I predict that our MP's potbellies will grow by 10cm this year. Likewise, i predict that at lest 3 more ribs will be visible on Kenyans' emaciated bodies.

Bear in mind that the margin of error is about 3%. Therefore the real substantial growth is around 1.3%. I agree with you Karuitha!

4% ...inflation will be >10% what's the point. Kenya imports more than it exports. As a country we are not developing. Development is not measure by cars, houses, roadsetc. it's deeper than that. China is a power house because it exports more than it imports. US was once like that

Well... this is assuming that the childish politics are put to an end. The push for college degrees for govt. office holders should remain. It is not a guarantee, but it's something!

Any economist will tell you the economy like Kenya's has to grow by atleast 7.5% pa for any change to happen in living standards. So not impressive.

Kenyans deserve to be told the truth.The economy is growing on the negative scale.

[karuitha]

4.3% is just fiction. I predict the economy to grow by 0.5% to 1.5% not 4%
