He then expressed hope that the New Year should reaffirm people\u2019s \u201cdetermination to contribute towards a better society for all.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Chakwera\u2019s message about resilience and courage could be taken as an acknowledgement of the harsh economic environment Malawians lived under in the year 2022.<\/p>\n<p>During the year, the Chakwera administration failed to take appropriate measures to deal with rising cost of living which was worsened by Chakwera\u2019s decision to devalue the Malawi Kwacha by 25 percent in May.<\/p>\n<p>Apart from the increase in prices of goods and services, Malawians also had to deal with forex and fuel shortages as well as 8-hour daily blackouts which started in January and affected various economic activities.<\/p>\n<p>In his defence, Chakwera has been arguing that he is taking painful decisions to revive the economy. However, Malawians are yet to see the fruits of these measures.<\/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.
