transport Tanzania

 When tourists go on safari presumably most of the spent money goes ultimately into the pockets of oil sheiks and well-paid workers in foreign car factories. More than half of of the money thus leaves the country and has no multiplyer effect to the local economy. Travelling on rail provides good jobs for the regional population. It is not necessary to get Chinese companies into the country for improving train connections since there are p.e. retired Swiss engineers who like to contribute.
In cities the old dala dala should be forbidden because it is not in accordance with human dignity to sit cramped in a minibus from Asia where people generally are less tall and big. Selling the ticket at peak hours for a little more money and off peak for less may also improve towards comfortable transport.
 
         The above situations plus fast growing population cause much unemployment. Many young persons polish shoes, sell papers and souvenirs, become touts and as nobody cares for them sometimes become stealing criminals. Which the middle class likes to lynch.
These youth are not well represented in parliament. There generally well to do people care for interests of own financial class. So it may be necessary to install a powerful institution, elected by persons between 16 and 24 years of age, that takes the necessary measures to get shared jobs and salaries thus that everybody can participate in society on at least a sufficient minimum level of income. That undoubtedly will also be to the benefit of handicapped persons and those struck by HIV, as this age category is less egocentric. Moreover initiatives can be expected to reduce surpopulation. Each parent then will be forced to see that his or her children (two at most, avoiding egoism) will get complete education.
 
         After arriving at the Kilimanjaro International Airport one sees many huts on the plain that in former times belonged to wild animals. The cooler air of the night can be trapped in a cellar (with opening to a low lying part of the garden), but this must be on a small artificial mount as otherwise rainwater might flood all. Architects haved to take care that good micro climates are obtained and in fact building too simple huts is a waste. May be it is not such a good idea to have a new suburb in Arusha, for the city is rather big, crowded and yet sprawled. A new settlement can be constructed not far from the international airport, plus railway with Russian track width for stability and comfort.
A town is not only an assembly of houses but needs a central place with easily recognisable buildings such as church, theatre, cityhall, stadium, shopping area and not to forget public parks. The distribution sector should be coco, cooperative, collective, owned by the population and providing them part time jobs. Cities should be sufficient compact to bridge distances on foot or bicycle. Such one near the airport then may be surrounded by an intermediate between zoo and safaripark.
