It could have been better to give the local contractors but the problem for them they work as if there is no tomorrow or, that is the last contract they have got so they end up doing substandard roads which can b e easily washed away by water. They have to be competitive and do standard work in order to be trusted.The government lose alot when roads are damaged within few years.
Our govt has got a big problem l, M7 every now and then talks about private sector led growth, this is the same message he spearheads in the EAC. How will this happen when contracts are awarded to foreigners. Even the 50% awarded to local firms, its their firms who win them. We pay taxes and instead of govt fighting hard to retain that money in its economy, they let it go to other economies.....there's a big problem here. I think those countries which fund our budget partly maybe there's a condition of getting contracts such that their money goes back.
