Economic, Development Theory vs Urban Planning - I am heading to Kazo ANGOLA to wittiness a shriving sub –urban filthy city sprawl! Why Angola?! I will discover.
- I am through with Katwe and further inside after messing up my gumboots terribly bad. - Children here are to “who it may concern” do the pup in labyrinths snaking through muddy waters and ramshackle muddy houses going for houses. - It is terrible out there but it is also Kampala City. Good lord save our people from a piggy lifestyle. - We have now in place a rigorous and exhaustive Urban Plan ready for implementation; we have started with the central region, soon moving east and northwards, as resources are made available. - We do consult, study, develop and improve – - I AM ALREADY UNLEASHING CONTEMPORARY URBAN PLANNING IN THE ENTIRE COUNTRY ON A MEGA SCALE THE FIRST EVER IN AFRICA. - To DEVELOP UGANDA ENTIRE URBAN REGIONS, IS A NECESSARY FIRST STEP IN TOTAL SOCIAL TRANSFORMATION (dfwa-U) currently our sole preoccupation. Delta. - Human beings as natural beings and by nature do not change it is appearance that changes. Revolutionaries. We are precisely focusing on that. - KCC how could Katwe deteriorate and expand to such a mega filthy piggy enclave into Makindye, Kibuli and beyond without the Kampala City Council counselling people into a better life? - We are very knowledgeable where the limits of politics particularly in African even, in countries like Senegal. We have transformed (Z) to doing. - After five months of intensive study in the villages and towns, I have come to a realistic grasp with the flux of socio-economic political trends in Uganda and an elitist mentality. - In fact we were written off as people who didn’t know what we are after – now they all know better. Those intimidating me don’t waste your time. - Who by the way are the engineers of the most rare corruption establishment ever, past and current political impasse in Uganda. - Current socio-economic political trends will continue for sometime in this African country. - Unless administrative core politics at municipal and district level are guided, strengthened on implementation and supervision level under the laws- Uganda has no future. We are therefore setting the pace. Alfa - The alternative is to go fully-fledged federation based on current district socio-demographic configuration- hence harmonisation of social-economic and politic beliefs and the nexus of antagonistic ideologies. - It is however no solution. - Given to inherent weakness in these institutions, which are basically pedestal on organic solidarity not so much compatible with a modern medialised and marketised thought matrix. - People who’ve gained (now free radicals!) but also lost out in NRM 20 year socio-economic political stint are current opponents of the current government, to settle personal long socio-economic and political grievances, redundancy? (Diminishing returns) - They are the majority and more vocal even in the trends of pervasion of justice and the said rule of law they offer to re-establish. - Peasants and simple privatised government institutional workers have absolutely gained nothing and will gain nothing with the above arrangement. - The ontological status of the problem. - Implying losers to the next regime of politics and politicians will solve nothing, instead generate the next bout of political salvo and the impasse will continue. - The above category can be subdivided into two groups, a combination of economic and political power quest. - To solve such typically African political gridlock – we’ll have to come to terms with several issues some of which are being tackled like housing in Wakiso on a national scale. - Agriculture as elevated today is empty but not necessarily a useless tool. - However will bear nothing but further misery as high breed crops and commercialised intensive farming take root and collapses at the same time. - The peasant will be a peasant. - That will be the demise of the agriculture sector, as we have known it in Uganda economic history. Economics gone sour with cash crops. - I’ve therefore developed a comprehensive matrix for physical planning and social planning we will implement nation wide. - To totally divert socio-economic politic development and trends. - Hence lessening the impact of politics on social and economic inclination to save the peasant from political garbage. - What it entitles is guidance of what should be done, how and when in form of rural and urban planning and transformation. - In essence it delimits stochastic political hearsay, tittle-tattle and individualised competition for resources i.e. corruption and synergies wasted on attaining social unmet needs, wants and desires. - In the past I have asked current political opponents to open up their debts accounts, current economic status; incomes, expenditure, assets, and maybe a short history of their emergency as economic right footers. - That can be a pointer to the forces driving and behind the politics in Uganda. - We stay on this level we can as well forget Uganda. - I am ready to offer and share free service in Physical Urban and Social Planning based on the above issue of Urban Planning. me Bwanika [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.idrconsulting.com Bwanika ________ http://www.idrconsulting.com --> for your consultancy needs _______________________________________________ Ugandanet mailing list Ugandanet@kym.net http://kym.net/mailman/listinfo/ugandanet % UGANDANET is generously hosted by INFOCOM http://www.infocom.co.ug/
