More fuel chaos in Malawi.
We don't have the forex to pay for imports including and especially fuel, but also other commodities. Fuel makes up a big chunk of the import costs and it is where we first see the problem on the streets.
Over the years, our agricultural exports shrunk and the difference has been covered in loans and donor funding, making us more dependent.
Where did we take the wrong turn? 😭
