can harbor and then travel for several months in order to reach africa. that would be approximately forty six months from when it has been termed that we want to participate in in a particular road appeal and so when the food arrives. to g.a.o. where mr alito works issued a report which presented the problem to congress president bush tried to change the system so that a portion of the food would be procured from local markets and arrive faster and cost less. they failed and they failed because of the lobbying efforts the highly successful and very sophisticated lobbying efforts of those who benefit from the status quo and use food aid programs from the american taxpayers' money only forty percent goes for the purchase of food aid for the starving people in africa the remaining sixty percent goes to the shipping companies.

that i mean yes. yes it was a good idea yes i'm. good i am a god who are very happy that i was. like you i don't like depending on others with the work. all that much and all of them on the but our land doesn't produce anything and deprives us of some. of what we did a month ago with so some wheat but it was aired in the sun on holland i met them yes

i missed in the world. but they have met al and we appreciate that other countries take care of us that are going to go the government of kenya. knows that the drought causes problems but it ignores us. we could sustain ourselves and the government could build a water tank. and an air a geisha system to water as fields. but. it was one with people who like to work. it's a myth it. rather than receiving food for which we have not worked. it is a good work but we don't like to be idle. they could help us by giving us work. imo

because for example we have no fields as a mother the mother when we proposed to our government to construct good water supply lines for our crops it's like talking to defeat is. we have appealed to the government many times. the government of kenya has utterly abandoned this district there are no roads water or electricity the state of kenya has built absolutely nothing. so it is true that part of the country. would be in. continuous famine relief because that is literally true. because all. we'll be right if we have something to to you know eighty nine percent of the people not going out

to the night so it's a mental challenge for the country. we hoping that with a new constitution would up with will develop those who call the module of my generation the people and the side of the country. it is only as if the government of kenya prefers to ask for help from abroad in order to feed the starving turkana instead of doing infrastructure and development work in the area. millions of kenyan from us producing green. must it becomes difficult for a bureaucrat who wants to skim off ten percent to go moving from village to village asking that i need ten percent of the grain for my stuff but if it's food aid you can put it tonnes of the same into becomes easier for you to skim off from that the food if it's not about food it could be about import food importation becomes

easier to make more money in putting food. at the expense of the cause of the starving people as opposed to having kids producing more food for themselves. however before nine hundred eighty kenya not only produced but also exported products. the government had put these cause guaranteed minimum returns dmae weak means that. if you. invest in the because. and they needed it's not enough to recover you a cost the government to top up so that you don't go at a loss because if you do if you go at a loss you will not. plan to the next season and the country would stuff

and that's is the way you know one thousand and sixty is the name hundred seventy s. conomos among the wilds net food exporting countries. despite all this kenya was immersed in debt which couldn't be paid without international help. it's just a clear lustration no a country that east coast by global forces to surrender policy making that ought to be of strategic importance to its own citizens why was kinda so enduring because they need aid from the world bank because they need aid from the i mean they were told if you don't change you don't get money from us. so everything including education health

communication transportation energy and water follows the free markets rules. agriculture was no exception governmental support was withdrawn and farmers were now on their own. asked us to actually just meant the subsidies that were buying me into fertilizer into seeds and the entire agreed cattle extension services where he moved and this is a cinch and services now have to be paid and because people do not have money to pay the never consulted extension workers so the food production just slumped and as near talking now it is a basket because we are a net food importing country. so what happens you don't have enough to feed the people so you have to able to import and if you don't have

enough money to import you get food aid. behind nairobi skyscrapers and the shadows of the kenyan capital's luxuries lies kibera. it is one of africa's largest slums. approximately three hundred thousand people try to survive here. many of them are

immigrants from rural regions who came to the city to escape hunger. i was a farmer but i didn't always has a crop. i needed money to feed the cows but i had none. when i had a good crop i needed money again. to pay the workers to plow the fields i couldn't live like this it was all too much for one person i couldn't cope with the expense says. cheer it is better because someone may pity and help here. without a welfare system the citizens of canberra must pay for everything even public toilets since houses don't have these luxuries. the average computer is

two roughly two dollars that is a must. and you have to pay for your room you have to buy a water you have to pay for the toilet to go to you have to pay full electricity have to. school fees you have to buy food you have to buy food with the food yes. there's no legal issue it's free market. we have some really really people going to for the daily food because the body. moved by everything to each. war. for decades now the world food programme organisation has been providing food to the pupils in canberra schools. at this school three hundred children receive aid.

some of these children sometimes it's the only mean that they did that they get so they're going to school new so they have bad flu to meet and in addition it provides an incentive for children to come to school. i don't lose jim good to maybe i could just grow up faster. and maybe help my phone. the things that serves me is it's my mum no dad would call much school kids would do over to do the street hungry but with. this with the tree each year to fill much more than would each of the defensive bring so much it was a hoax assuming. you've moved out of the room to foods in that way i. just. i just take that today on that but

i won't let someone know that i was under the old world's existing old boy mayfield's i don't need to show nightclub i just keeping him down so that jim dandy may just see that you fancy stuff love love because she's being with us john she has a good school. but it. was . wealthy british style. time to buy your target. market why not. come then. find out what's really happening to the global economy

with mike's cause or for a no holds barred look at the global financial headlines tune into kinds a report on our g yes or to pursue the surface updated please along with the civilian news. yes. i am. sure you. know where the horses.

my. food is so many things. i love and support. it. is you. it is an economy that is evil is

a bogus rule of the bill mint it is so many things and therefore as long as you would dependent as no less you do not i was so different in the me and the infrastructure using and distributing food. then you can not claim to be so free and cannot claim to be independent sixty percent of. our blood in africa is contradicted. and and adept tells you that all we need is to then invest in this pumps but again because of the dependency culture what we are seeing is that the political elites have been selling and listen this line to for us. we are not investing in farming us part of us to take the security element for the

country. the american company dominion among other things builds presence in the united states in kenya it is rented seventeen thousand hectors and produces food like rice dish and bananas mostly for the capital's big supermarkets. this farm. is an investment when american mom called mr cullen by this and his family they had some money but they thought should be put towards helping him put security in africa so he came here in the two thousand and three and the lease these farm four

hundred five vs and number twenty five vs the name of. it was too much what you would like. the american investor introduced himself through the church claiming that he wanted to help eradicate poverty by offering new jobs and food. in my. view like bussing to new dominion came here through the church. because it couldn't get in contact with us it used the priests. to do it promised to give us work so that no one would be unemployed. there would be great changes it would build schools and it would give us part of its harvest look at that within the school but there would be food for everyone it was for us was the biggest joy.

so these multinational companies we thought big coming to transform a lack and we really celebrated at the time tamils coming. this thing timed out to be something that is. one. of. the communities agreed the company would take the swamp and transform it into a fertile fields. undertaking projects for the public's benefit. drainage works began in a cement dam was built in order to control the river gelis flow for the irrigation of the water letting rice crops. but as the inhabitants claim this intervention caused floods.

much the way to the water came during the day and got inside our home. the corn's one right now. and so they've got completely ruined in the. the house started leaning. and so we demolished and rebuilt the. or when i walked my whole body was underwater i know only this pot stayed above the water level. then i'm a little carried away by the water and we just did what can you do with

a cal which you can't feed because the water has covered it completely willing to put as many animals drowned everything i had was taken by the water. which is killing people killing animals taking everything from people and. it is very beautiful who. we are not the course but what happens here is when when people start to think politically when the river floods they think we have opened the gates and sometimes they come to us when we're not doing we're not even using we're not even in growing rice so there's a season when people came in and say we have floods there they don't understand that the source of the river was flooded so the river would be flooding here so then they think it was a problem to do with us we have nothing to do with it we were just doing our things

. i was cultivating inside here i was getting my vegetables from here i was getting my income in fact i was a cultivating underselling yeah i had some sugar canes here some yams groups under so many things and even on the arms and the models i was selling those and maybe if not very bad i was an almost a getting one thousand a day. to manage my family and now i've got nothing. close to our own food no we can't have the money to pay school fees for the children because of these not just you can't plan the clothes you planned here

today what has come sunday to those who are going to work you know. that time was a rich man and that's why i left the looking for jobs in a row be to come here and create employment for myself and have a decent life like. you could face up to twenty five bags of maize and one day. i'm back when all is not lost you can hardly get a bag of maize so on demand noone has to go to get back in days and yet no. more poorer than we used to be because what we're experiencing now. as never before. give the communities one to use part of the this one this one is about six hundred

thousand make us it does not belong to us we only have seventeen thousand acres why do we have communities always complaining about the person that was given to they invest us yes why don't they also go on a drain of a pot that is lying back. with our government is sitting in the office as an aerobic as in the american people help they do this to their. grads coming from outside the nation all over every time they need. what we have found by as well very very hard working so we are not being taken as human beings in fact i hate to say this but we have still in colonial days. we have to strive to. make us you know after the minerals. the

us has in the sources so excess ministries. is a productive assets and therefore we have to run promptly with it. in the next three years if the trend continues i think they can and community will really make appearance for more really food depending on. national treaty sustainable for these countries.

today is a joyous day in this community of the turkana region. the people are harvesting their crops from the communal field. but their own hands they also build a smaller earth and dam. for this project to happen the world food program n.g.o.s and the government have to cooperate and all for the turkana food provided that they work on the project. the dam may hold some of the rainwater and help the turkana gather water for the next drought. when our screens are again flooded by images of starting out for cans and the international community asks again for humanitarian aid then we will know that the drought is not the real culprit. in my

view is seed drought that's just an excuse that we use in order to you know make the aid industry appear to be fair to chile the horn of africa receives more rain than soda rabia than even the drought but you know tides the saudis their own money is pleading for food aid. to the problem really about funding now for it is not about drugs it's about how we have money i'll post it. so the tools to help with the africom plus. we need nor stop just delivering a few bugs of grain to the people we see is telling we need to start interrogating the global food system and how it's been truly makes individual africans in the

rural villages and having no food at all.
