Benjamin Mkapa cytaty

Benjamin William Mkapa – tanzański polityk. Prezydent Tanzanii od 23 listopada 1995 do 21 grudnia 2005.

Mkapa doszedł do władzy, wygrywając pierwsze demokratyczne wybory prezydenckie w 1995. Uzyskał 62% poparcia wyborców, mając silne poparcie ze strony byłego prezydenta Juliusa Nyerere oraz głosząc hasła walki z korupcją. Wybór ten spotkał się jednak wówczas z protestami opozycji i oskarżeniami o fałszerstwa. Prowadził politykę liberalną, skupiając swe działania na prywatyzacji i rozwoju wolnego rynku. Jego polityka doprowadziła początkowo do wzrostu gospodarczego i stabilności ekonomicznej, jednak nie udało mu się zmniejszyć bezrobocia, ani ograniczyć ubóstwa i korupcji. Sam był oskarżany o nadmierne wydatki w sferze rządowej i finansowe afery. W 2000 udało mu się wygrać ponownie wybory prezydenckie. W 2005 na stanowisku prezydenta zastąpił go jeden z bliskich współpracowników – Jakaya Kikwete. Wikipedia

“Terrorist attacks in their own countries do not generate travel advisories aimed at discouraging citizens of other countries from visiting. Why is it that only when threats of terrorist attacks are perceived in our kind of countries are travel advisories issued?”

“I am aware that many regard me as an anti-sports character person, but the truth is that the country’s economy by then was in bad shape. Tanzania being among the highly indebted countries, I had to give sports the least prominence during my first term, while setting priorities in revitalising our economy.”

“Our reason for withdrawal is simple. We are party to too many regional trading organisations. The sum effect of this means that our membership is extremely costly to sustain and we must rationalise our participation in such ventures.”

“The idea of African brotherhood is often just a cover-up for laziness. We must see what is achievable in our circumstances and evaluate all decisions. In terms of regional economic integration, sentimentality is not enough. We really have to be frank and honest.”
