Furnmart and Home corp, two leading furniture companies have left and 350 jobs are lost.
Now I don’t suppose these companies just packed abruptly, and even if it were so where was our economic intelligence unit or to put it simply, even the shushushus? I can only hope they weren’t busy watching over HH and GBM stinking wealth.
I earlier said it that the idea if giving cadres’ pocket money as loans to poor watermelon sellers at John Chinena is misplaced but Zambia must be thinking industrialisation.
Instead of doing political masturbation over Mulungushi Textiles, someone must have foreseen this closure and empower small scale carpenters to fill up the space left by the furniture giants.
What benefit is there in granting buses to cadres when there are visible signs that the passenger transport sector is chocked? Why creating ministries that just choke Mutatinomics?
Whoever is in control of this country must change the concept of thinking outside the box but just completely away from the box.
Some may wonder why I sound upset, listen am not drunk on Jameson like some politicians were dununaling whole of last night but its the harm being done to the economy.

Wait a minute guys! I think am a bit behind with news. Is it really true that these two companies have left or its just speculation? Can someone sincerely tell me the truth.
Furniture firms – can’t make wen – de industrial base to employ pipo isn’t there-
Once we have an industrial policy with political en economic implementation for de benefit of our pipo -then our economy ill start showing shows of improvement.
God, make the Bembas and Ngonis Understand that Their Relatives who are in pf have and are still Destroying Zambia, they should know that HH has the Answers to Our Problems.
Your tribalism is one of the reasons why your HH lost elections.
One Zambia and One Nation means that we are one and the same people. Regardless of who is in State House, he will be looking after the same people
Did HH lose the elections? I have not heard it from the Concourt or the ICC.
The announcement but the discredited Judge Chulu was petitioned.
I have said it time and again that these pf chaps have no capacity to run this economy, we are in for more misery, just wait for the budget, what do u think is the cause of the delay in announcing the budget it’s because they are stuck, in developed economies and civilised society, they could hv resigned.
Bwana what do you expect to happen in a country with job loses.Who will have the money to buy such things? Do you expect the company to stay along to be called in esters when they cannot make money? As a country we a in big problem.
