Africa-Press – Malawi. <\/strong><\/span>President Lazarus Chakwera has assured Malawians that over 6 million litres of fuel is being hauled into the country, while at the same time daily distribution of product has been doubled as short-term solution to address the current fuel crisis.<\/p>\n

Chakwera said this today, August 7, in Lilongwe at the Malawi Investment Summit, where he assured the citizenry to solve challenges of scarcity of forex \u2014 which are at the root of this problem.<\/p>\n

He said his administration has already secured US$28 million from local banks for the purpose of procuring fuel as short term solution and the leadership is \u201cin pursuit of another US$50 million facility for the same \u2014 on top of instructions the Reserve Bank has received to prioritize fuel procurement in the allocation of any forex we secure\u201d.<\/p>\n

In response to the long lines of cars queuing for fuel in several parts of the country, Chakwera said he hosted a meeting with officials from Ministry of Energy, National Oil Company of Malawi (NOCMA) and Malawi Energy Regulatory Authority (MERA) up until past midnight on Tuesday night \u2014 and as of Wednesday, \u201cthey are working around the clock to address the situation with [his] instructions\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cI know that the current shortage of fuel is adversely affecting manufacturing, businesses, work, and domestic life, and I want to assure you that we are seized of this matter to ensure that there is product in the service stations in the short term, while we work on the long term.\u201d<\/p>\n

He cited that in the energy sector, they are \u201cfighting a culture of dysfunction and disorganization\u201d at Electricity Generation Company (EGENCO), Electricity Supply Corporation of Malawi (ESCOM) and Power Market Limited (PML) \u2014 saying their dysfunctionality resulted in a national blackout two weeks ago.<\/p>\n

\u201cOf equal importance are investment opportunities in energy infrastructure, some of which are already on the way, such as the IS$60 million rehabilitation of the 130MW Kapichira Power Plant, which suffered damage from Tropical Storm Ana and triggered the current spate of blackouts.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut with this investment, that power plant will be back on line by Christmas and we will be back on track with our goal to raise Malawi\u2019s power generation capacity from less than 400MW to 1,000MW by 2025.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is in our quest of this goal that just yesterday, my Government also signed a binding agreement to construct a 350MW Hydro Power Plant at Mpatamanga, with money from a consortium of financiers led by the International Finance Corporation of the World Bank Group.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn this context, the current blackouts are a temporary headache we will cure by the end of the year, but the real story in the end, the real story when all these new power plants are completed, will be that my Administration tripled the power base of the country and ended blackouts for decades to come, thus creating endless avenues for electricity-dependent economic activities that have never been possible in this country.\u201d<\/p>\n

He added that one other avenue to economic solutions is the development of a robust digital economy, saying his administration is also pursuing investments in ICT infrastructure that will ease transactions and expand the reach of our products into new markets by maximizing the 3,000km-long national fibre backbone being built to create a digital economy of the future.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur expanded power base will open up is mining, and so we are inviting suitably qualified investors to partner with us in the development of mining infrastructure to fully take advantage of the discovery of rare earth elements, alluvial gold, limestone and dolomite, coal, rubies, uranium, rock phosphate, talc, oil, gas, and the largest deposit of rutile in the world.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe second obstacle that makes the building of a growing economy a unique challenge are the prevailing adverse economic conditions that have been occasioned by external factors.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am talking about communities whose economic activities have been set back years by climate change impacts, industries that have been decimated by CoVID-19 pandemic, supply chain disruptions caused by policies and wars in foreign lands, and a mountain of toxic debt that has shrunk the maneuverability of our fiscal space.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is why we are actively engaged in intense negotiations with local, regional, and international financial institutions to create facilities that will help us surmount this obstacle.\u201d<\/p>\n

Apart from these measures, Chakwera said his administration is also reviewing policies, legislative and regulatory frameworks to improve the investment climate, saying these include \u201creviewing the Investment and Promotion Act (2012) to strengthen Malawi Investment and Trade Centre (MITC)\u201d<\/p>\n

It is also for the operationalization of the One Stop Service Centre, developing an electronic business licensing system, implementing the National Trade Facilitation Action Plan, setting up a Private Sector Delivery Unit within his office.<\/p>\n

As well as a Presidential Private Sector Council, which he will \u201cunveil next month, coupled with upcoming engagements with the Private Sector to jointly develop land regulations that are investment friendly\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am also excited to announce that we see the clear need for the formation of a development corporation that will streamline the investment drive, and I am grateful that Ms. Clare Akamanzi, who leads a similar institution in Rwanda is here to share her experience of this model.<\/p>\n

\u201cI really believe that with your support, the best days for Malawi are ahead of us, and not too far away,\u201d said the President.<\/p>\n

Ahead of his speech, Human Rights Defenders Coalition (HRDC) implored on Chakwera to solve the fuel crisis that has \u201cbedevilled the country over the past two weeks, saying this is \u201ca sign that the country is sitting on a time bomb.<\/p>\n

The statement made today, September 7, came after NOCMA declared the fuel scarcity as a crisis yesterday, Tuesday, saying it has run out of both petrol and diesel in its Strategic Fuel Reserves \u2014 barely a week after assuring the public that it has enough fuel in the country.<\/p>\n

Rather than just talk about the scarcity of fuel currently being experienced, Consumer Association of Malawi (CAMA) also asked the country\u2019s leadership to assure the public when to expect next supplies.<\/p>\n

In its statement, HRDC says the government\u2019s silence on the situation on the ground is like its admitting that that the Tonse Alliance \u201chas no solutions in sight for this crisis\u201d, therefore the best is to \u201caccept their shortcomings, step aside and let a competent team lead this country forward\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe urgently call upon President Lazarus Chakwera to address the nation on what is going on in the country and to explain what government is doing to normalise the situation,\u201d said the statement from Gift Trapence, HRDC national chairperson.<\/p>\n

In an interview today, CAMA\u2019s Executive Director, John Kapito described the alert from NOCMA as \u201ca really sad story\u201d, adding that NOCMA had been \u201clying all along of the availability of fuel in the national reserves\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cNow they have come out and issued a statement like this without even assuring consumers when to expect next supplies,\u201d he said. \u201cThis is going too far by playing around with the peoples patience.<\/p>\n

\u201cSurprisingly, there is total silence from MERA, which is the regulator. This is handwork not befitting a country \u2014 we can\u2019t allow amateurs like these ones to run the affairs of the country.<\/p>\n

\u201cFuel is the heart of the country, it\u2019s scarcity has negative implications to both country and individuals. This is pathetic and very shameful for the country\u2019s leadership,\u201d Kapito said.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the Parliamentary Committee on Industry, Trade and Tourism has obtained a subpoena for top management to appear before it on Friday this week without fail or face unspecified action.<\/p>\n

Briefing journalists in Lilongwe yesterday, the Committee\u2019s chairperson, Simplex Chithyola-Banda disclosed that NOCMA deputy chief executive officer, Helen Buluma was expected to appear before the committee with her officers to explain on the ongoing fuel shortage being experienced in the country \u2014 but she never did by giving an excuse.<\/p>\n

Chithyola-Banda went further to warn NOCMA officials that they risk being in contempt of Parliament if they again fail to show up on Friday. \u201cWe are yet to get details on their failure to appear before the committee but we hope they will honour the subpoena to avoid being in contempt of Parliament,\u201d Chithyola-Banda said.<\/p>\n

This piece of revelation also attracted public consternation, with Yamikani Kanyinji describing NOCMA as being \u201cbrimmed with drama\u201d and that \u201cit\u2019s a failed institution\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cLast time they embarrassed fired staff in the papers. Their holier-than-thou attitude will push them into apocalypse. Get to serious business to fix the mess \u2014 NOCMA this and NOCMA that, is such a monotonous song.\u201d<\/p>\n

Others hinted that it seems NOCMA top management \u201cis untouchable\u201d by the country\u2019s leadership and that they are \u201cholding this country to ransom and none of us seems to care\u201d.<\/p>\n

A source, who asked not to be mentioned blamed the Parliament Committee, saying they have themselves to blame for not taking any action on Secretary to the President & Cabinet (SPC) Colleen Zamba, who also failed to show up when she was also summoned before it.<\/p>\n

They alluded that such a no-show by a high-ranking government officer \u2014 who happens be chairperson of NOCMA Board \u2014 provided a precedent, which NOCMA is following suit.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you let impunity roam free, then don\u2019t blame others for doing the same. This is clear war between lip service government and Parliament,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
