ZANIS
The new slogan is now!”Global problem require Global solution”.This is a contrived crisis.
Prepare.
A decent change than our so known president going all ways. 1984 hi. “Uchipo” another blogger and I are also passing the message on, but our enlightened family mostly do not want to listen, but I know we are beginning to get the message across. The worlds Crisis’ have always been about manipulation, the US out spending Russia was also one, but as is prophesied the Russian bear shall stand ’till the very end. If only these African leaders could listen to true patriots with hearts as those that existed when we birthed Civilisation or the heroes that fought for independence. Africa is a market within itself, all we need is independent countries with the populace trading amongst and across borders, no common thought process. Diversity always is progressive, new ideas, multitudes of…
On “Vice President Goerge Kunda is expected to represent President Rupiah Banda at the summit whose theme is International Solidarity for Peace and Development and the Global Economic and Financial Crisis”, is the Minister of Justice Mr Veep George Kunda going to represent President RB Banda or Zambia as a Nation or indeed the MMD GRZ?
Let us be serious about what we do and seek to develop the Country whose people gave you the charge to be in charge of our National affairs.
Interesting enough, the sickness or something else of President RB Banda is a blessing in disguise as National funds are saved.

On “Mr. Pande said the Vice President is expected to be accompanied by his Wife Mrs. Kunda who will participate in the NAM’s First Ladies Meeting to be held on the sidelines of the summit”, I am happy that the previous large entourage of Ministers and whoever with our President has been dropped to save National money in the face of the Global Economic Crisis, but also impressed that Mrs Kunda who may be a second lady will be in the shoes of the first lady Mrs TB who could have actually gone with Veep George Kunda to that Summit.
Anyway, it is good to practice for she might just be the next first lady.

There is nothing tangible they are going to do apart from shopping and misrepresenting our Nation. In this crisis it is better to send relevant people. Nobody will blame us they will all follow suit instead.
Oh no please if u can’t even make wise decisons home what makes u think u will this time?
Sometimes I forget who the Veep for our country is! It could be that I do not expect anything good from him or he is simply a non-performer! Sorry Mr. Kunda! Please work hard so that we know you are there!
Movement (NAM) which opened on July 11 in Sharm el- Sheikh, Egypt.! Don’t you think RB is scared of reminder of LPM’s demise last year in Sharm el- Sheikh? He went there just about this time of the year? Is it delegation or nikuyopa….
where is zambia going with such leaders who shun such important events
Why do these Egyptians hold summits at the same venue where our late President met his fate. No wonder Zambia One has diplomatically sent his 2nd In line. Once bittentwice shy. I just hope that King George II will come back live and represent his boss Zambia ONE efficiently and will not read his prepared SPEECH IN CAPITAL LETTERS. Will this sumit bring us anything tangiable like past experience has shown. Travel round the world read written speeches by technocrats at MFA make friends and cut business deals. My thinking was that since Zambia One has sent his No. 2 he should have bin accompanied by Dr. Fashion Phiri and other deputies. This would have met us revisting the place where our dear Levy met his fate and say to them thank u for everything that happened last yr. But its money making
