Well done Chilala.Your achievements speak for themselves.All the best.
Great news.Â
I know mr. Chilala, check out” journey through Zambia” on YouTube. His farm is the third largest in Zambia.
How high are these local bank interest rates usually?
It is true interest rates are usually very high and prohibitive. Two weeks ago I went to a local bank at arcades trying to borrow money I came out dissapointed. Interest rate was 26% as opposed to the much talked about reduced rates of about 14% to 16%.
THIS IS THE MOST REFRESHING NEWS OF THE DAY. I BET MOST KAPONYA’S MEN, WOMEN, GIRLS AND BOYS WHO INTERFERE EACH TIME I DRIVE INTO KAPIRI WITH AUDIO TAPES, CD AND THE LIKE WILL FIND SOME SAFE PLACE TO BE IN.
THIS IS GOOD INITIATIVE FROM A ZAMBIAN FOR ZAMBIANS. STREET VENDING WILL SOON BE HISTORY.
I hope PF would be monitoring usage of these funds so that it is put to good purpose. There should be accountability if Glass product has to survive. Chilala should not buy hammers and channel the rest of funds to his farm. When we see shoddy work being done, we shall know things are getting bad
Why should PF monitor the usage of private company’s money? Is it a parastatal or Chilala’s personal company?
Rubbish, how many of these so called PF leaders are clean where funds are concerned, and yet have no proper companies to talk about? Chilala is a serious business man who now will support many families through employment creation. Check how his farm is doing, check how his Chimsoro Milling is doing before expressing your persimistic sentiments. Also check the culture of people where he comes from.
who tells you its pf’s responsibility to monitor a loan given to a company that sis privately owned???
Some in MMD wont be happy. They were being paid by south african breweries , were all the bottles comes from now, to keep the plant closed.
Eagle- Eagle #7. The loan is a private arrangement for Chilala’s personal company. Why should PF government monitor its usage? If he wants he can buy the hammer provided he adheres to the repayment schedule that him and the bank structured. The government has no business monitoring usage of money in private companies.
Chilala brings out a good point about the cost of borrowing in Zambia. No wonder its easier for foreign investors to invest in Zambia because Banks in their countries are ready to support them. Banks in Zambia are after super normal profits.
Good news and step in the right direction.
I remember the days when that Glass factory was operational and at full capacity. They even built an entire subdivision of reasonably sized homes for their workers on the South-East end of Kapiri Mposhi. It was good and promising times for a lot of Kapiri residents. This was, of course, in the era of KK and his so called “illiterate” UNIP/ministers. Ironically, PF members/ministers are disparaged on these blogs as “Kaponyas”, insinuating PF consists of a bunch of illiterates, and yet such industries are now spring back to life under their watch. MMD with its intellectuals came in and such industries disappeared overnight—-go figure!!!
Good news. More jobs.
The government still has a role to play in this, support this brave stance by promoting consumption of products out of this firm, and until that is done, its +1-1.
BA LUNDAZI DWELLER, IF YOU BORROW MONEY USING YOUR COMPANY, IT MUST BE USED WITHIN THE COMPANY. IF YOU DIVERT PART OF IT, YOU ARE STEALING FROM YOUR OWN COMPANY AND IT IS A CASE. MIND YOU, HE IS A CHAIRMAN WHICH SUGGESTS THAT THERES IS A BOARD OF DIRECTORS. REMEMBER, EVEN MAHTAN WAS WAS ACCUSED OF USING FINANCE BANK TO BORROW MONEY FOR HIS BENEFIT.
Agony is that Kapiri Mposhi does not have sufficient housing units to accommodate workers at KGM once it starts operations. Those with money should see this as an opportunity.
I agree with Mr. Chilala on the need to create an industrial development fund to help industrialise the nation. The CEEC has failed in this as it has been heavily politicised.
This is good news for kapari but the government need to support this man otherwise cheap glass imported from outside zambia may consume him. Conrates Tonga bull.
#17 you just had to go tribal. This emphasis on tribe can be quite vexing. Tong bull my foot…
@7 you are a fool.this loan has nothing to do with pf.negotiations started long before pf.Go chilala dont look back one of the most objective Tongas.no politics in his business.
#7 EAGLE-EAGLE, this is a private company PF has no business monitoring it. Â and the losses will have nothing to do with gov. the loan signed is between a private bank and a private individual.
PF needs to find a way to make the market less risky for money lenders to lend out more at reasonableness rates.Â
Any viable investment must be supported by any wellmeaning zambian. that is great news and banks must appreciate their fellow countrymen, if we are to go forward in our dear zambia.
