The Malawi Government says it is happy that it has managed to reduce the amount of money it borrows from within the country.

According to spokesperson in the ministry of finance and economic planning, Nations Msowoya, domestic borrowing has fallen from 36.2 billion kwacha to 4.3 billion kwacha.

Development is welcome: Msowoya

Msowoya said it is a welcome development and it has shown that government is willing to commit itself to fiscal discipline.

”This is a welcome development as it portrays that Malawi government is committed to fiscal discipline,” said Msowoya.

He added that when government borrows a lot from the domestic market, interest rate increases which lead to the rise of the cost of living.

”Economically what was happening is that the domestic borrowing was pushing up interest rates as government was competing with the private sector and this fuelled inflation,” he said.

Msowoya further said as one of the measures to stabilize the economy, government had to stick to the approved budget and to only spend money it received from Malawi Revenue Authority.

  7. (I HAVE A MIRACLE TESTIMONY TO SHARE WITH EVERYONE)
    Hello my name is Lizzy Joe, I want to give a testimony about my HIV virus that was cured by a great spell caster. Since last 16 years I have being a HIV positive patient. I never think I we live long again and am so grateful to Dr Greg Carlos who help me cured my HIV virus last 3 weeks. I was in a great pain so I told one of my best friends about my situation; she told me that there is a great spell caster that can cure my VIRUS. I asked her if she had his contact, she gave me his email and phone number, I emailed him and he talked to me and he perform the necessary things and he told me that after 14 days, I should go for a test. Which I did, when the doctor told me that am now a HIV negative I couldn’t believe myself I went to see another doctor the result was still the same, I was human on planet earth, so i contacted him and thanked him for is good work. Please if you are having a similar problem please visit him or contact him at: [email protected] or whatsApp: +2348146867873… ALL THANKS TO Dr Greg Carlos.

  24. Mr Msowoya, what I suggest to you is that you must have a platform where a layman like me can learn one or two on economic issues. From the tone of your reporting, it appears you are a policy maker rather than a government messenger sent to relay a message. For example, I have a problem with the last para but one:…….was competing with the private sector and this fuelled inflation. What are you portraying here? Was is good for government to do this? If your answer is on the last para, then you would not have exposed government’s excessive borrowing on the last para but one. Finally, which period are you referring to in para 2? Be blessed Mr Msowoya!
