Rwanda has its own problems and never sought to blame others or cause others trouble. I advise Burundi to do the same.

There are things I admire, for example, about South Korea or Singapore. I admire their history, their development and how intensively they have invested in their people and in technology.

Strong economic growth, and especially a significant increase in private sector investment, is the only sustainable path forward for Rwanda.

I often wonder why the West is much more interested in aid deliveries than in fair trade, for example. The fair exchange of goods would place far more money into the hands of the affected people than relief operations.

Aid leads to more aid and more aid and more aid and less independence of the people that are receiving aid.

My own experience from a decade ago taught me I cannot trust the UN. But it is a world body and we have to live with it and tolerate it. But I can't hide my feelings about its inefficiency and its not being productive.
