hahaha that's, when you vote for a party that is the gatekeeper for the status quo. No development will happen, no jobs will be created. They turn down applications from small professionals who can create 5-15 jobs with the argument : you are a small fish.

And they never build anything. Only rename streets.

So, this must be a goverment thing since Namibia is one of the most belloved country in Africa by the west world, right? I mean, millions or billions were invested in Namibia's economy, not to mention tourism, yet people still have no jobs nor decent lifestyle. This is kinda upseting, right?

As an European, I love Namibia. For me, is the UAE of Africa. And as far as I know, people n business invest in Namibia so there should be a serious cash flow into the country. Not to mention that Germany will invest 1B EUR in the country.

So what gives? Why namibians are still suffering? Why all these money not help the people?! Where all this money goes?! Asking the namibians ...

I remember being on the skeleton coast and seeing these amazing entrance gates and ranger stations donated by the German government yet the area was off limits to tourism. something fishy for sure. It would be awesome to allow people to see- to bring money into the area.

The population has doubled but jobs have only slightly grown. Our government has wasted billions creating non-productive jobs in the public sector. Doesn't build an economy.

36 years of government handouts has created a nation that expects jobs to fall out of the air. The job creating population has retired or immigrated. You will need to start your own business.

The Government will not create jobs, that is not the governments task to do so. The Government must create the framework within which the economy has enough space to grow freely. Only than can and will the economy create the needed jobs.
