Na mimi nimekubali, shemeji yetu Rekel ameisha kuwa mwengeji. I am so glad to see you two touring Bujumbura. 1. The challenges in the Burundi development are due to the political instability for decades and to the country being land-locked. In 5-7 years we could have the standard gauge rail (SGR) linking Burundi to the port of Dar es salaam, Tanzania. 2. Burundi was part of the German East Africa colony(=Tanganyika + Ruanda-Urundi) from around 1896 to around 1916 when German forces were defeated by the Belgian/British coalition at the end of World War I. The Kiganda Treaty of 1903 forced Burundian king Mwezi Gisabo to pay a fine of about 500 cows to the Germans. Thereafter the Leage of Nations (I believe) appointed Belgium as a Trustee and that is how French became the offical language in Burundi. France never colonized Burundi, but together with Belgium, it has been involved in education and development projects in Burundi. Burundi gained independence from Belgium in 1962. If I remember correctly, we used to have the picture of the Belgian king Baudoin I in our classroom in elementary school. 3. Lake Baikal is located in Siberia (eastern part of the Russian Federation). 4. From what I heard, the government doesn't want people to rush their maize harvest to the market and then starve later on, and it suspected that some people were stealing the maize from the fields. The government wants farmers to sell what is not needed by their families to a government agency so that the maize can be sold later on to the public at a fair price (without the intervention of too many middlemen).
