Former VP advocates tolerance, peace

INNOCENT-THE BLOGGER-BOY

PEACE in any country under the sun can only thrive if the new generation is bequeathed with the spirit of mutual respect and brotherly love, former Vice President Dr Mohammed Gharib Bilal said at the weekend.




Addressing participants of the 14th International Festival of Language and Cultures (IFLC) in Dar es Salaam, Dr Bilal, who was the chief guest said; “it is unfortunate that many countries are busy promoting the disintegration of culture and traditional customs and condoning negative practices which spread like bushfires using modern communication systems like the television, radio, newspapers, internet, and social media misleading the youth.”

“It is the presence of networks like the International Festival of Culture and Language (IFCL) which aim at bringing the youth together and instilling in them ways of mutual respect and loving one another as members of one family that will make conflict and bad behaviour among the youth disappear, leaving behind an ethical society led by wisdom,” he said.

“I prays to our government to ensure that such efforts are encouraged and enhanced,” he added.

“I have learnt that upbringing that gives room to incitement is the root cause of crimes against humanity and radicalism among the youth. We elders of this country promise our full co-operation in the quest for making the world a peaceful place to live for all,” he told the participants who came from at least different 16 countries.

He said the event and the participants are ambassadors of peace and encouraged more events to held.

He also praised the University of Dar es Salaam, the Alliance of Businessmen and Industries of Tanzania and Turkey (ABITAT), the ambassadors of various countries and local companies for their sponsorships of the event which was organised by Kilimanjaro Dialogue Institute, Feza Schools, and Ishik Medical and Education Foundation.

“This event is clear testimony of the fact that our country is recognized as the land of peace, friendship and hospitality. The participants will make good ambassadors of our country from the good experience they have had here,” added the former VP.

“All over the world, culture is what identifies people of a nation. This is what makes culture and language very important agents for unifying different people,” he went on to say.

He said the fact that the event was televised live and watched by more than forty million people worldwide, it helped to promote the country and its resources as well as attracting tourists and investors.

Dr Bialal said the event served to open the brains of youth to the reality that they don’t live on an island and builds instead, the spirit of self-confidence, co-operation and love for their fellow youth the world over.

“It is my hope that this festival gives another chance to the youth to appreciate the fact that language and culture constitute another opportunity for addressing unemployment,” he said.

“Political clashes are taking place in different countries and these have their root cause in selfishness and divergent opinions from different groups. This bad seed has been planted over a long time and has led to distrust and fear among nations,” Dr Bilal said.

Organised by Kilimanjaro Dialogue Institute, Feza Schools, and Ishik Medical and Education Foundation the IFLC aims at uniting youth as world citizens and targets to reduce, if not end altogether, hatred and disintegration and open a new page for co-operation and renewed strength for joint address to problems.

Language and culture, if properly engaged, build unity and friendship, tribal inter-relationships grow through cross marriages and going to school or working with people who speak a different language;“through speaking different languages we paint our world into many and attractive colors,” he summed up.

Pparticipants were from among other cuntries US, Angola, Albania, South Africa, India, Azerbaijan, Morocco, Peru, France, Kyrgyzstan, Rwanda, Thailand, Ukraine, Mozambique, Senegal and Romania.

World Bank warns govt on costly tax breaks

INNOCENT-THE BLOGGER-BOY

THE World Bank's country director for Tanzania, Burundi, Malawi and Somalia, Bella Bird, has advised President John Magufuli's government to stop being "too generous" with tax exemptions and backed its ongoing tax evasion crackdown measures.




Bella Bird


A dizzying array of exceedingly-generous official tax exemptions have already cost the national economy close to 8 trillion/- over the past five years alone and while some senior government officials say the incentives are necessary to attract foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows, various experts warn that such tax breaks can actually be harmful in the long run.

In an exclusive interview with The Guardian, Bird said: “What we have seen here is that Tanzania has been too generous in giving out tax exemptions."

"But I think President Magufuli is doing the right thing in pushing for some changes in the area, as it seemed there were unregulated tax exemptions and he saw the need for changes.”

The World Bank country chief said there was a need for reforms to some laws regulating tax exemptions, pointing out that when given out freely such exemptions cut off genuine revenue collection streams for the government itself.

She noted that while it was common practice for some governments to offer tax breaks to attract investment in certain industries, a careful approach was needed in the management of such incentives.

Tax holidays are among the most widely-used incentives to attract foreign investments, especially in developing countries. In Tanzania, past governments have used them extensively to attract investors in key sectors like mining, oil and gas.

The tax holidays have led to widespread complaints from opposition politicians, activists and the public at large that some multinational mining companies operating in Tanzania are not paying their fair share of tax locally.

Fiscal experts have also been highly critical of the tax holidays that are regularly offered to investors, and the Controller and Auditor General, Prof Mussa Assad, also warned in his latest government audit report that the ongoing tax incentives are "over generous."

Other critics say tax holidays benefit primarily short-term investments, typical of so-called “footloose” industries in which companies can move quickly from one jurisdiction to another.

Tax exemptions also tend to typically reward the founding of a company rather than investment in existing companies, and can lead to erosion of the tax base as taxpayers learn how to evade taxation of income from other sources.

Studies have shown that large foreign companies, such as those in the extractive industry, are generally in a better position to negotiate special tax regimes and thus to extract rents from host governments such as Tanzania.

Since tax policy appears to have some effect on the location decisions of multinational firms, especially within regional markets, there is a risk that governments will “race to the bottom” with competitive tax incentives.

Such competition has already started in some regions, including East Africa.

"The concern is that countries may end up in a bidding war, favoring multinational firms at the expense of the state and the welfare of its citizens. This risk has pushed governments to try to harmonize their tax policies under regional or international agreements," said one World Bank study.

The state-run Tanzania Investment Centre (TIC) freely advertises the offer of generous tax exemptions to would-be investors, posting on its website a series of relatively easy steps that investor companies can follow to be granted exemptions.

According to new data from the Ministry of Finance and Planning, as seen by The Guardian, the government offered tax exemptions amounting to 1.834 trillion/- in 2013/14 alone, equivalent to 3.3 per cent of the country's total economic output or gross domestic product (GDP).

In fiscal year 2014/15, the government waived taxes amounting to 1.627trn/-, equivalent to 1.93 per cent of the GDP. The stated eventual government target is to offer tax exemptions equivalent to 1 per cent or less of the GDP.

Tanzania in the 1990s was forced to offer overly generous tax exemptions to attract foreign companies to invest in gold mines and fend off competition from South Africa, Ghana, Mali and other countries.

The same “race to the bottom” is repeating itself today as Tanzania competes with Mozambique, Kenya and Uganda to woo foreign investors to develop its nascent hydrocarbon industry.

Beyond the risk of a bidding war, tax incentives are likely to reduce fiscal revenue and create frequent opportunities for illicit behavior by companies and tax administrators, experts warn.

The deputy chairman of the Confederation of Tanzania Industries (CTI), Jayesh Shah, noted that there was a need to evaluate the overall benefits and disadvantages of such incentives before calling for reforms on the issue.

“The best way to know whether an incentive is good or bad is to look at the long term investments and the overall benefit to the country at the end of the day,” Shah said.

Asked on who was benefiting from the incentives, Shah said it was difficult to identify such individuals for now.

Why The 'iPhone Killer' Tag Needs To Die

INNOCENT-THE BLOGGER-BOY
 
Go to Urbandictionary.com and type "iPhone Killer". This is the definition you will get:
"Little is known of the iPhone Killer. Having never been seen in person, it is impossible to describe its appearance, nor has it even been proven to truly exist. There are many versions of the Legend of the iPhone Killer, each of which is wildly varied from the last. However, each and every version agrees that it is coming in a few months."
As it turns out, this is largely correct. The fabled iPhone killer is not unlike a mythical creature -- fascinating to think and talk about, but with no real proof of its existence.
If, over the years you have acquired a couple or more non-Apple smartphones, there is a good chance that at least one of them was labelled 'the iPhone killer' at some point. It is a marketing tagline, used by several device manufacturers over the years. The first iteration of the iPhone was launched 9 years ago, but no other smartphone since has been able to 'kill' it.
first iphone steve jobs
Apple unveiled the first generation iPhone in January 2007. Back then, normally there would be a gap of 2 to 3 months after a phone's launch before a rival would would announce plans to launch a competing product. During that period, users and reviewers would have had the time to use and give their verdict on a phone. But such was the hype around Apple's iPhone that within a mere two weeks of its launch, rivals Samsung and LG were announcing plans to make their "killer" versions of the phone.
The iPhone has always been owner's pride and neighbour's envy. Sure, iPhone has hardly ever been the phone with the best specification, but Apple's value as a brand which delivers premium product and experience has never been doubted. The criticism aimed at the iPhone has always been about specific modules such as lack of Bluetooth, the number of apps, RAM size, and megapixels in the camera.
nokia 5800
The early iterations of the iPhone ran on OS X. Other manufacturers were also going through a lot of changes and the 'iPhone killers' of that era kept switching to different operating systems. There was Nokia launching 5800 and E71 on Symbian. Samsung was launching Omnia phones on Windows phone mobile and Instinct one. Even Blackberry was in the race for becoming the Apple assassin with its Blackberry Storm. Google, in the meantime, released their first Android phone, G1.
android g1
Sure, it is fair to compare your product to one of the best smartphones of the generation. Your phone might have some superior features compared to the iPhone and that's a great thing. But that doesn't really add up to making the whole package (your smartphone) as good or better than the iPhone.
One reason the iPhone is so popular is that it has been in a tightly bound system, with the operating system on the phone. Most of the features work seamlessly. Across generations and newer iterations, some things have stayed constant. And the major changes have been done over the iterations so that users never feel at sea. There has always been the assurance of picking up an iPhone and figuring things out in minutes. (Advanced options and settings can always be learnt over time.)
nexus one
Early in 2010, Google launched the first Nexus. Initially, it too was dubbed the 'iPhone killer' but with time the Nexus line gained its own reputation. Google worked with many manufacturers on the Nexus series and still they managed to create an impression of a series with stock software and fast updates. Nexus 4 and Nexus 5 were huge hits for the company even with their few flaws. Just as iPhone is identified with Apple, Nexus began to get associated with Google. At some level, Samsung's Galaxy S series has also acquired that reputation but they still have a long way to go.
oneplus
A lot of companies such as OnePlus with OnePlus One and 2, Xiaomi with Mi-series have claimed the iPhone Killer crown in recent times. Other companies such as Asus and Huawei have tried too. But if at all there have been real iPhone killers lurking around all these years, they have failed to 'assassinate' it. Apple is running stronger than ever.

An earthlike home far, far away?

INNOCENT-THE BLOGGER-BOY

A planet 1,200 light-years away in the direction of the constellation Lyra is a good prospect for a habitable world, according to a team of astronomers.

Discovered by the American space agency Nasa's Kepler space telescope in 2013, the planet, Kepler-62f, is approximately 40 percent larger than Earth.

At that size, the planet is within the range of planets that are likely to be rocky and possibly could have oceans, said lead author Aomawa Shields from the University of California at Los Angeles.

New computer simulations of possible kinds of atmosphere that might be found on Kepler 62f suggest it could sustain life.

Shields noted, "We found there are multiple atmospheric compositions that allow it to be warm enough to have surface liquid water. This makes it a strong candidate for a habitable planet."

Because of Kepler 62f's distance from its host star, it would need the greenhouse effect of a thick carbon dioxide-rich atmosphere to keep its water from freezing, the research showed.

However certain types of orbit could allow the planet's surface temperature to rise above freezing at certain times of the year - even with much lower levels of carbon dioxide, closer to those found on Earth.

"This might help melt ice sheets formed at other times in the planet's orbit," said Shields.

More than 2,300 exoplanets outside the solar system have been identified, and a few thousand others are as-yet unconfirmed planetary candidates.

Only a couple of dozen are known to orbit the "habitable zones" of their stars, the narrow region just the right distance away to allow the existence of liquid surface water.

The study appears in Astrobiology.

Bunge adjourned after Members protest over Udom saga

INNOCENT-THE BLOGGER-BOY



Deputy Speaker Dr Tulia Ackson.

Dodoma. The Deputy Speaker Dr Tulia Akckson has adjourned Parliament prematurely after Members demanded that the business at hand be differed to another time.
MPs from both camps wanted Parliament to shelve debate on the water ministry in order to discuss the government's discharge of more than 7,000 students pursuing a special teaching diploma courses at Dodoma University.
Education minister, Prof Joyce Ndalichako told Parliament earlier that the students were sent packing following a month long strike by their tutors.
But MPs argued that it was unfair for the government to punish the students for a mistake which was not theirs.
Mr Juma Nkamia (Chemba – CCM) and Joshua Nassari (Arumeru East – Chadema) raised points of order seeking the Speakers guidance. They asked the chair to shelve the arranged debate to give MPs opportunity to debate the students expulsion.
But Deputy Speaker refused to grant their motion, forcing Parliamentarians, in protest, to stage a stand in.
It was then that Dr Tulia ordered a Sergeant at Arms to forcefully remove all protesting MPs, immediately, soldiers carried away Mr Nassari before Dr Tulia adjourned the session to 4pm.

Dar-based trader eyes presidency in Somalia poll

INNOCENT-THE BLOGGER-BOY


Mr Mohamed Nur. PHOTO | FILE

A Dar es Salaam-based businessman says he will vie for presidency in Somalia in September this year.

Mr Mohamed A. Nur, who is the CEO of City Garden Group of Companies, told The Citizen yesterday that he would present his name to the country’s parliament, which would elect the head of state.

“In Somalia there is no functioning political party system. The names of independent presidential candidates are presented to the lower and upper parliaments which elects the president,” he said.


The 45-year-old Nur came with his family to Tanzania in the mid-1980s, shortly before the Horn of Africa country plunged into lawlessness followed by two decades of civil war and without any effective administration until 2012 when a formal central government was established.


He said it was not strange for him to vie for presidency in his home country, saying a significant number of the current leaders were in diaspora before they took up political posts back home.


Mr Nur added lately he had been to Mogadishu several times to lay ground for his campaign for the highest office in his troubled country. He was born there in 1971.


He remarked that although Somalia has been saddled with what he described as “terrible” leadership and terrorism, he was optimistic about his country’s future. For many years, Somalia topped the list of failed states in the world due to instability and violence.

“Due to multiple crises, Somalis had to ensured decades of wasted years of poor leadership. To make it worse, nearly 60 per cent of Somalis will not live to see their 40th birthday due to poverty,” said Mr Nur, who is currently the chairperson of the 25,000- member Somali community in Tanzania.

He stated that his campaign tag will be to bring back to sanity to the country which has also been rocked by high level corruption besides lawlessness due to terrorist attacks blamed on Al Shabaab militants.

Other priority areas will be to bring security and democracy and rebuild the nation from many years of chaos.

In economy, the focus will be on tapping the existing potentials which include support from the countrymen and women in diaspora, livestock and fisheries in a country which has the longest coastline than any other in Africa. The country also has huge offshore oil and gas reserves.

Somalia is one of the few countries in the world with its large number of citizens in diaspora, mainly within eastern Africa; Ethiopia,Kenya, Djibouti, Tanzania and lately Uganda.


But the majority are to be found in the Middle East from North Africa to the Gulf states while hundreds of thousands others have migrated to Europe, North America, Australia, South Africa and elsewhere.

Serikali Yapiga Marufuku Pombe Ya Viroba ya Kwenye Mifuko Ya Plastiki

INNOCENT-THE BLOGGER-BOY

Mifuko ya plastiki inayofungasha pombe maarufu kama ‘viroba’ imepigwa marufuku na Serikali kuanzia mwakani. 

Sambamba na hilo Serikali pia, imepiga marufuku moja kwa moja utengenezaji, usambazaji, uingizaji nchini wa mifuko ya plastiki kuanzia mwaka huo.

Waziri wa Nchi , Ofisi ya Makamu wa Rais (Muungano na Mazingira), January Makamba aliwaambia wanahabari jana sehemu kubwa ya mifuko hiyo inayotolewa bure imekuwa ikichangia uchafuzi wa mazingira kwa kiasi kikubwa.

Wakati Makamba akiyasema hayo, Februari mwaka huu Naibu Waziri Ofisi ya Makamu wa Rais (Muungano na Mazingira), Luhaga Mpina aliondoa zuio la matumizi ya mifuko ya plastiki akisema kuwa itaziweka rehani ajira za Watanzania wanaofanya kazi kwenye viwanda vinavyotengeneza mifuko hiyo.

Pia, Mpina alisema itapunguza kasi ya uwekezaji wa viwanda vilivyowekeza katika bidhaa hiyo.

Akizungumza katika siku ya Mazingira Afrika, Mkurugenzi wa Mazingira, Dk Julius Ningu alisema maamuzi hayo yamelenga kulinda viwanda vilivyoajiri mamia ya Watanzania, tofauti na nchi nyingine zinazotegemea wazalishaji wa nje ya nchi.

Makamba akizungumzia uamuzi mpya wa kuzuia mifuko ya plastiki, alisema matumizi ya mifuko inayofungashia vileo na inayotumika katika matumizi mengine husambaa na kuchafua mazingira. Alisema mifuko ya plastiki inatajwa kuziba mifereji na kusababisha mafuriko na athari nyingine za mazingira.

“Leo (Jana), tumeamua kutangaza ili kuwaanda wahusika wasiendelee kuwekeza katika mifuko hii badala yake wasubiri utaratibu mwingine utakaowekwa na Serikali,” alisema Makamba na kuongeza kuwa:

 “Asilimia kubwa ya uchafu kwenye nyanzo vya maji, mito, maziwa na fukwe za bahari ni mifuko ya plastiki.” 

Makamba ambaye pia ni Mbunge wa Bumbuli, alisema Serikali inakamilisha majadiliano ya ndani na baadaye itawahusisha wadau kuhusu dhamira ya kupiga marufuku ya moja kwa moja mifuko hiyo.

Alifafanua kwamba Serikali itatoa muda kwa walioajiriwa, kujiajiri na kuwekeza kwenye biashara ya mifuko hiyo ili kujiandaa kuacha shughuli hizo na badala yake itawezesha mazingira ya utengenezaji na upatikanaji wa vifungashio mbadala.

“Kwa wanaotengeza mifuko hii na kuiuza katika soko la nje hatuna tatizo nao waendelee. Ila kwa soko la ndani hawataruhusiwa kufanya hivyo.Zuio hili litakuwa la kisheria siyo kwa maneno,” alisisitiza Makamba. 

Aliongeza kuwa katika kuonyesha Serikali imedhamiria kupambana na hali hiyo wizara yake imeamua kutuma timu ya watu watano kwenda Rwanda kujifunza namna bora ya kudhibiti matumizi na kuzuia mifuko hiyo tangu mwaka 2008.

Waziri huyo alitoa wito kwa watengenezaji, wasambazaji na waagizaji wa mifuko hiyo kujiandaa na zuio hilo na katika siku zijazo Serikali itatoa utaratibu na maelekezo ya tarehe ya kuanza zuio huku taratibu nyingine za kina zikifuata ili kuondoa mkanganyiko.

 Katika hatua nyingine, Makamba alisema maadhimisho ya kitaifa ya Siku ya Mazingira Duniani ambayo hufanyika Juni 5 kila mwaka hayatafanyika kitaifa badala yake wizara imewaelekeza wakuu wa mikoa kufanya maadhimisho katika maeneo yao.

 “Tumewapa miongozo kuhusu utekezezaji wa shughuli hizo za maadhimisho zinazolenga kutoa hamasa ya hifadhi ya mazingira hususan nyanzo ya maji amabayo ni muhimu kwa viumbe hai,” alisema Makamba.

Kwa mujibu wa Makamba, kauli mbiu ya mwaka huu kitaifa juu ya maadhimisho hayo ni ‘ tuhifadhi vyanzo vya maji kwa uhai wa taifa letu’aliwashauri na kuwataka Watanzania kutumia siku hiyo kupanda miti, kudhibiti uchomaji wa misitu
