It is business as usual.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA Kabambe leadership would have started with preserving what we have. Investing it in energy so as to attract investors. You can\u2019t be using our last reserves of Forex to ask for investors to come to a country with no energy.

The Chakwera administration has resorted to borrowing from banks in order to deal with the challenge.<\/p>\n<p>Chakwera is currently in the United States attending the United Nations General Assembly but critics say the president should have skipped the meeting in order to save forex.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/malawi\">Malawi<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Malawi.
