The donor community and development partners have expressed worries with this development which is draining a lot of public resources and in return not benefitting Malawians.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking on condition anonymity, one of donor community representatives said Chakwera is a disappointment to his appetite for petty trips. \u201cThis is very unfortunate situation to see a sensible leader keep on travelling globally when his citizens are grappling with economic mess. These trips could be avoided or delegated to his cabinet ministers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHow could you expect support from donor community with financial bail out when the leader keeps on draining the same resources meant for the poor,\u201d worried the rep.
