IF YOU WANT TO WORK FOR SURVIVAL, STAY IN UGANDA BUT IF YOU WANT TO GET RICH, GO OUT OF UGANDA.

The fate of business and plight of job employments in Uganda.
Two weeks ago, i took sometime to do consultations in the office of Uganda Revenue Authority (URA) in line with taxation in this Country.
From my consultations, i found 20 Litres of Honey is taxed 90.000 Shillings, which is almost equal to the price you buy it at!
The same fate with importing Cars, URA charges a tax almost equal to the amount you bought the car.
It's aslo confirmed that, URA charges more than 50.000 Shillings tax on each imported Smartphone.
I realized that, "over taxation" is what hampers rapid growth in the country.
It leaves many people wondering if there is interest to support and empower Citizens who are doing business in the Country, by lowering taxes on imported products and for retail traders in the country.
Starting up a business in Uganda is easy but its prosperity entirely relies on how you play the tunes of mafias, one of which is tax evasion (smuggling), which is highly risky when caught by URA but one with spirit of "Prosperity" has to believe in "Taking the Risk".


The employment sector in Uganda deems to be more of crap because most of the employees in various job employment sectors (in Government, in NGOs and in Private / Individual employers) seem to be just frustrating the employees through slavery payments.
With no proper job securities, people get committed into working hard for a petty money for survival (basic needs) 200.000 Shillings to 350.000 Shillings per month.


NB: These are my personal opinions, and they are not in anyway affiliated with or in the interests of any foreign organization, individual, government or any politician in Uganda.


Thanks.

UGANDA ELECTORAL COMMISSION TO ELIMINATE NATIONAL IDENTIFICATION CARDS (IDs) FOR 2021 GENERAL ELECTIONS.

By Editor
The elimination of using National IDs (Ndagamuntu) for the 2021 elections should not have come as a surprise. One would be very NAIVE to think that Bobi Wine has not prepared for this in his Business Plan under the RISK section. It is public knowledge that our EC is not independent.  It is also public knowledge that Military Dictator Yoweri Museveni will never lose an election. What stunned us this morning is when we noticed that on social media, people were mocking Bobi with his "get your Ndagamuntu".  We are on record for saying to all Our readers that the National ID is like Apartheid in South Africa. Students of History would know how those IDs were being used to arrest people, deny them jobs, deny them basic services. Consequently, Bobi was not wrong and will never be wrong on the Ndagamuntu. Except the ones attacking him and mocking him forget that in Uganda, now, no National ID (Ndagamuntu), no service.  If you have not been denied registering your child i...

Last week of March, a friend told me to pray for Uganda.  I told him that he was an Idiot and we have prayed for too long and we are still hungry and sick and Jesus is not coming soon to liberate us. He then ignored the STUPID and sent me a picture we all now know.  It got me totally messed up.  This guy was telling me to pray then sends a picture of men bowing down in blood.  He might have meant guns but I blocked him because his utterances of praying for Uganda were misplaced. I unblocked him 3 weeks later and asked him about praying and assassinations.  His reply "eithrr prayers or guns or both". I hate violence with a passion.  So he is now blocked in like FOREVER. Do you feel safe?  Do not feel safe. Uganda regim...
