Mr. Mulindwa, Thanks.
There are two scenarios in this. The government has always encouraged Ugandans to return home if they so wish especially those like you who have imaginary fears. The government however realises that we have Ugandans who are currently unemployed who can work in other countries with labour shortages. This is not bad at all. Even in Europe, many East Europeans are flocking Western Europe in such of jobs. How can this bad? Working outside your country of birth is as old as mankind and Uganda will reap a lot of benefits if more people went and worked abroad. By the end of the day, they return their earnings to Uganda thus helping in the development of the country.
