Aki, The World Bank is funding the project because we have no money. Remember our budget deficits? And organizations like the World Bank and IMF exist to do this. I think it is not only Kenya that gets World Bank and donor assistance but almost every other country in the world, be it Ireland, Turkey, Argentina. I think it is a bit naive for you to think we can do it all and fund it ourselves. We are not yet at that level or development, as much as you like to talk about local solutions. It my opinion what you talk about is almost what I would call tertiary needs, and we are yet to meet our basic needs like food and education. Don't over-analyze these things. You get frustrated by the way the world is.
