We all respect the japanese in business right? they make all those Toyotas we drive. They pulled themselves up from the defeat of the WWII, right?

Now here's what they are saying about Kenya.

Endeleeni kulialia hapo because YOU ARE JUST FERKING LAZY, UN-INNOVATIVE AND SIMPLY BONOBOISH (breeding like rats, sex, booze, big buttocks, etc)

Kenya is the most attractive destination for Japanese firms seeking to make new investments in Africa, a survey has shown, beating the continent’s larger economies like South Africa and Nigeria.

The survey, carried out by Japan External Trade Organisation (Jetro) on Japanese-affiliated companies in Africa, found that over a third (35.1 percent) of polled companies cited Kenya as their preferred future investment destination in Africa.

The East Asian country affiliated firms cited Kenya’s position as the economic hub of East Africa, with many emerging start-up companies offering big potential for collaboration.

The firms also pointed to expanding demand for infrastructure, potential of geothermal power, growing car industry and the existence of Japan’s Official Development Assistance (ODA) projects as other attractive points.

South Africa came second with 33 per cent of the companies citing it as an attractive destination followed by Nigeria (29.4 per cent), Ethiopia (21.3 per cent and Ghana (19.5 per cent). Tanzania closed top 10 preferred list at 15.6 per cent.

“Kenya was continuously ranked as the top country. The results of South Africa rose 4.7 points from last year, overtaking Nigeria, and ranked next to Kenya. Interests in Mozambique and Tanzania has been declining from 2018,” says the survey.

Jetro was established in 1958 as a Japanese government-related organisation that works to promote mutual trade and investment between Japan and the rest of the world.

The survey usually targets firms that receive capital contribution from any Japanese company regardless of the investment ratio or number of Japanese expats they have.

About half of the surveyed companies said the importance of African continent as a trading destination has increased compared to five years ago while another 60 per cent said they see its attractiveness rising further in the next five years.

“Many companies cited market expansion with the growth of population and expectations for the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) as reasons for this,” said the survey.

About 40 per cent of the companies said AfCFTA will have a positive impact on their expansion of business opportunities due to reduction or elimination of tariffs.

Such sentiments are inconsequential for a number of reasons. First, the level of Japanese FDI into Africa is comparatively small. For instance, Thailand (60 million people) receives roughly the same amount of Japanese FDI as the entire African continent (1.2 billion people). The second element has to do with the nature of investments. Japanese investments in Africa are mostly geared toward securing raw materials for their industries, which means they have a very limited impact on the wider economy. On the other hand, Japanese FDI in Thailand focuses on manufacturing, which produces various positive spill-over effects in terms of skills transfer, technology transfer, employment, and forex earnings. These have given rise to higher standards of living among Thai people. For instance, the importation of used vehicles is banned because citizens can easily afford brand new Japanese vehicles made in Thailand. The presence of Japanese industries in the country has been instrumental in encouraging the growth of manufacturing in many other sectors through local and foreign investors.
In summary, Japanese preference for this country over that has little meaning because all these countries count for almost nothing in the world of FDI.

Should this not be where Kenya should head? Prioritise coordination with the Japanese over china and the west?
 
When it comes to foreign investors kenyans are top notch when it comes to ku mbembeleza watu walete pesa, its akin to that house you go to and you are served with some nice china, the seats are well covered with vitambaa, the kids are made to be at their best behavior, one feels good and want to come back again and again.

Nobody wants to help out of altruism. They have to get something in return. Japanese focus on Kenya is mainly on infrastructural projects. If Japan wanted to, it could use its out-dated capacity to launch Africa into low-level manufacturing, enough to rid the continent of inhuman deprivation.

Used so many words to say crap. I don't want to engage in ad hominems, but this is the kind of thinking that makes me think Mwafrika ako na kasoro.

1. So the way the world's 3rd leading economy views you as an investment destination is inconsequential? OK.

2. Eti Japanese FDI is small? So what? Were we talking about the sizes of FDI?

3. "Japanese investments in Africa are mostly geared towards securing raw materials". Sawa, Enstein. So why does Kenya which has no minerals to talk of their favourite destination? Could it be that the investment environment here is better? Jesus Christ!

4. Thailand. We could as well talk of Burma. Or Venezuela. Or the US. Or Outer Mongolia. BUT WE WERE FERKING TALKING ABOUT AFRICA. Where does Thailand and their Japanese investment come in? Mimi hushindwa.

Wacha what else I think just stay with me.....................and you see people liking your comment. Sad.

Educate this Bonobo.... foolishness is a gift he was gifted by nature in large quantities....
A country prefers another because the balance of trade benefits the former....if Japan really valued Kenya they would bring their engineering companies here. Which company have they established in Kenya or are planning to?

Hahaha, of course the kids and family suffer, ukiona mgeni amepikiwa chai ya maziwa poa, ka mkate na mayai it affects one, especially the kids dietary psyc, those vikombe Kwa kabati you have never touched them na mgeni anapakuliwa using that.

But it's all about pleasing the visitor hoping that the man or woman of the house will be made a member of that prestigious church committee, from the pastor's visit.
 
But how many of these companies put their money where their mouth is and actually invest? Hata those fancy candies and noodles from JP hatuwezi pata huku

Your points would be graded excellent, but only if they came from a high school student. Beyond that, you are expected to possess the requisite critical thinking skills to quantify and qualify deeds beyond their face value.

The problem with Africa is professionals who while their time in bars and brothels, and still hope to engage at par with world counterparts who spend every working moment honing their expertise. The little content you learnt a few decades ago is way beyond obsolete. The world renews every day, and you have to keep up to avoid sounding ridiculous every time you speak.

1. So the way the world's 3rd leading economy views you as an investment destination is inconsequential? OK.
The Japanese have hundreds of things to say about several dozen countries. You are deluded if you think a mention makes you special or better. Find out what they say about others.

2. Eti Japanese FDI is small? So what? Were we talking about the sizes of FDI?
Again the capacity to qualify and quantify FDI is critical. You need a degree in economics to appreciate that.

3. "Japanese investments in Africa are mostly geared towards securing raw materials". Sawa, Enstein. So why does Kenya which has no minerals to talk of their favourite destination? Could it be that the investment environment here is better? Jesus Christ!
You would know that they are after the infrastructure sector, which they lost to the Chinese

4. Thailand. We could as well talk of Burma. Or Venezuela. Or the US. Or Outer Mongolia. BUT WE WERE FERKING TALKING ABOUT AFRICA. Where does Thailand and their Japanese investment come in? Mimi hushindwa.
The worth of Japanese investments locally must be judged against what they are doing elsewhere. We know they should do more, because they are doing much more elsewhere.

Wacha what else I think just stay with me.....................and you see people liking your comment. Sad.
Citizens will always appreciate efforts to educate high resistance cases, where everyone else has given up. You will be educated forcefully.
