Are investments the answer to poverty and inequality, or is egalitarianism the solution?

Kae Matundu-Tjiparuro

Are increased investments – or investments without any limit – the ultimate answer to poverty, inequality, and all the socio-economic ills under which a section of the Namibian population is currently and increasingly suffocating?

Yours Truly Ideologically cannot but think loudly, in view of the fact that current focus is so much on attracting foreign direct investments, without giving the flipside of any investment or hearing anything else from the political principals.

If indeed the requisite investments – whatever “requisite investments” actually means – are the ultimate and everlasting solution to the abject poverty and inequalities in the country.
