I don't think we need to involve God in this one. He/She (gender sensitivity *sigh*) is in heaven and we are on earth. We create our own problems, so we have to fix them ourselves 8~) Interesting coincidence that your reply is somehow related to my signature 8~D: I don't want to go to Hell, I don't want to stay on Earth, but what I'm I going to do in Heaven. --- On Thu, 9/4/08, Barrack Otieno <otieno.barrack@gmail.com> wrote: From: Barrack Otieno <otieno.barrack@gmail.com> Subject: Re: [kictanet] Runway inflation?

Fuel is almost Europe .. 1.4-1.5€/litre i think currently, and our current transport infrastructure (or lack of), is not helping at all.
I wonder if the oil deal with Sudan will have any positive effects on the price.
Something has to give at some point.

Dear all, I recently returned from an overseas trip and was dismayed
to
learn that it's becoming very expensive in kenya. Here are two examples:
1) Electicity cost has gone up by 100%! This means every business, whether small scale or large will have to adjust their sale prices. ( One of my friend's just paid a bill of USD 300! )
2) Fuel is now at almost 1.5USD/Litre! ( This price seems like I'm purchasing fuel somewhere in Europe )
I'm not an economist but I seriously wonder where we are heading. Will struggling industries such as the BPOs remain competitive enough to survive? Are we going to loose our price competitive edge to runaway inflation?
