Africa-Press – Malawi. <\/strong><\/span>The Centre for Democracy and Economic Development Initiatives (CDEDI) has expressed concern over growing tendency by some public institutions which prefer foreign contractors at the expense of local ones saying the trend is not only draining Forex but also killing local construction industry.<\/p>\n

In its observatory statement signed by CDEDI Executive Director Sylvester Namiwa, the organization says the trend is putting unnecessary pressure on the country\u2019s much-needed foreign exchange (forex), yet the quality of workmanship of some of these foreign contractors leaves a lot to be desired.<\/p>\n

CDEDI has since challenged those entrusted with procurement and awarding of contracts on behalf of Malawians, to exercise a high level of patriotism, due diligence and soul-searching by putting aside personal and selfish interests and put Malawi first before awarding any contract.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis tendency, to say the least, poses a serious threat to the survival of the local construction industry,\u201d says Namiwa.<\/p>\n

The concerns come fast on the heels of CDEDI\u2019s preliminary findings, after invoking the Access to Information Act (ATI) to scrutinise the implementation of projects such as the US$26.7 million Karonga Town Water Supply and the US$30.55 million Nkhata Bay Town Water Project, by the Northern Region Water Board (NRWB), and the subsequent meeting with NRWB management.<\/p>\n

According to Namiwa, at the meeting, NRWB claimed that at the time of awarding the contracts, it was not mandated to sub-contract 30 percent of the works to a local company as stipulated by construction regulations and laws in Malawi.<\/p>\n

The said 30 percentage sub-contracting rule is a deliberate policy to build the capacity of the local contractors in order to attain a cut-off on the reliance on foreign companies, and at the same time in the spirit of sharing the national cake.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is, therefore, shocking to note that the two Chinese companies that were awarded the said contracts and were given blank cheques by the NRWB when signing the contracts. CDEDI has also established that construction works for the two projects could have been ably handled by local firms, but they ended in the hands of foreign firms on the pretext that they were the cheapest bidders,\u201d Namiwa worries.<\/p>\n

On the action taken to ensure transparency and accountability, the CDEDI Chief sai his organisation has since written NRWB to specifically furnish it with contracts they signed for the two projects for further scrutiny on behalf the country\u2019s citizens.<\/p>\n

The coming in of CDEDI on its watchdog role is due to the fact that the projects are financed by loans that will be repaid by Malawians, although taking from previous experience, it is evident that the combined US$57.2 million will not trickle down into the economy the way it would have been had the contracts been awarded to local companies.<\/p>\n

Currently, the local construction industry contributes 60 percent to the Gross Domestic Product (GDP), while at the same time providing 30 percent of employment.<\/p>\n

The Karonga Town water project, for example, is being financed by two loans: US$15 million from the OPEC Fund and US$10 million from the BADEA while the Malawi Government committed US$1.7 million from the taxpayers\u2019 money.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut under the disguise of choosing the lowest bidder, these millions of US dollars have been moved to China at a time Malawi\u2019s import cover is at a record zero. It is worth pointing out that the US$26.7 million for the Karonga Town Project alone is enough to pay for Malawi\u2019s car imports for a whole year. It is also an open secret that in the current set-up, very little trickles down to Malawi since the foreign-based companies import from their own countries both labour and materials,\u201d says Namiwa.<\/p>\n

He has since expressed worry that if the current trend is not put to check, then all the blossoming local contractors will be wiped out of the market, thereby leaving the responsibility of building our nation in the hands of foreigners who do not share our aspirations and goals.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe above set-up is also a breeding ground for deep-rooted corruption in the construction industry on one hand, and the advent of new form of neo-colonisation,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
