So, the first impact that we want to create is to reduce or stabilize prices.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo more money should go into corrupt people\u2019s pockets. Apart from that, shareholders invest, then with corruption on that level its unpredictable, so, we want to create some confidence in shareholders that they can come and invest in Malawi without their money going into corrupt people\u2019s pockets,\u201d said Sichinga.<\/p>\n<p>Sichinga continued by saying that it is always consumers who suffer when private institutions are engaged in corrupt practices as the overpricing burden is imposed on them and added that corruption in public institutions compromises quantity and quality of services.<\/p>\n<p>While emphasizing that Tenderite can accommodate the whole world, Sichinga wooed both public and private institutions in Malawi to be part of the modern way of protecting institutions\u2019 money from corrupt officers.<\/p>\n<p>Sichich further indicated that the company currently has over 150 institutions which are using the corruption vaccine in Malawi. During the event, Sichinga also announced that Reunion Insurance Company Ltd is the 2022 Tenderite institution of integrity.<\/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.
