Namibia is rumoured to become the world's biggest nuclear fuel producer
by 2015 they'll aparently open 4 mines and employs 8 000 plus workers
my main concern is even if we become the biggest Uranium producer
in the world our economy wont swell, our unemployment rate wont drop
electricity shortage will continue to be a national problem. but the rich and
western Nations will get fat off our uranium and their kids living hollywood
studying for free and looking down on us the ghetto stars
my suggestion
If Poyltech is really a universtiy of science, why cant they introduce a B-Tech
in Nuclear Physics at their so-called univesrity of science and technology?
why cant they just focus on science that they claim and forget all these economics
accounting, land planning and tourism? im not saying these courses are not needed
but they're the ones that dominate Poly's academics even though they claim to be
a science and technology university. we have everything and we never try to find
it's proper use, we never try out new things all we do is wait for imports and donations.
that's stupidity, some real negroes' mentality and way of living
More uranium being mined, Bigger payrols for SWAPO affiliates and Europeans
companies. the poor steady getting poorer, i guess that's just how it is

Minding you bzness
Its good to realise that you also recognise the importance that Uranium will be to our country.
But my question to you is that, why are you picking and indirectly blaming poly for not offering such courses? Why poly out of all institutions in the country? is it because its the only credible tertiary that can answer the ills of our lack of physicists? I think poly is the best institution thats why you are picking it up to offer such courses coz you believe they can and will do it properly.

The fact that i picked Poly it's because they claim to be a university of science
but majority of the courses they offer are business courses, and infact they're
the ones with the ability to offer science. i didnt look down on Unam but just that
Poly claim to be a giant in science in Namibia, so i want them to take a lead in
Science
1)
we need uranium for national security, for our weapons for security, you cant
trust all these imperialists, they can get on our throat if we ever nationalize our
economy at the expense of the remaining apartheid agents
2)
We need Uranium for power, we have electricty shortage even though the
population is small and consumption is low and we dont have heavy industry
3)
we need to master nuclear physics for the sake of being civilizied and indepedent
in terms of finance. to employ our own Namibian and African people, mine it and
make huge revenues to improve our society, how can we keep shipping it out to
other nations to enrich themselves and beef up their militaries?
the governemnt need some intelligent thinkers, the rest is old they need to rest
we need young leaders who understand the way the world is running, not these
missionary educated leaders. they're old school
Our dreams are censored, Most Patriotic

My My MMB
Your stance has changed over the last few months I fully agree with you on that one, I think the biggest limiter to such qualifications is actually attracting lecturers of that caliber to namibia it will cost yo uan absolute fortune, remeber instutions like poly get half the funding that Unam gets thus making this an ardent task
But yeah I fully support your notion

Let Emc2 have a say on nuclear physics.
I can't judge u to point out Poly why not they are not engineering Nuclear Physics. On my side, beside UNAM, Poly got tht capability of doing it. But Poly was trying all its best to be an university........and here we must not be blinds. Our stupidity Namibian political get involve in the matter.
Without hitting around the bush, STUPID political leaders who are behind UNAM they are against with the idea. The reason is to protect their own interest at UNAM. They got that fear, once Poly become independent Uni, it will attract more smarts dudes to analyze even political stuffs then it will be a big burden to them. Look at UNAM, who are the biggest shareholders there? Who are in the management? Imagine tatekulu Nujoma still a chancellor of the uni just for the proud without an idea to alter anything like science researches. In fact UNAM (high institution in the country) is under manipulation. Again our leaders do not interested in science at all coz they don't have a taste of it or they have no clue about it............then that make them to be useless on this time.
Mhhhh, a surprise, is hard to see ppl supporting right ideas from bodies that they hate! Keep it up!

Creat 2007
I gues i surprised you. my views are not based on personal fights between party leaders.
that;s their crazy madness and hatred toward each other and they're wrong to make such
things look like national issues, infact they call it Namibian politics
im interested in promise and delivery, patriotism and Africanization of African resouces.
SWAPO aint delivering though, but i cant defect to other parties coz they're way unfit
But we need Uranium at home, we cant keep selling it for cheap, we just cant go on making
our former foes rich. and i just wish the madness in ruling party's leaders will extinct

@I am the King
you're dreaming bro, Namibian leaders to read these posts? even if they
were browsing for Chinese donation news and end up being directed to this site
mistakenly they cant read this, if they read they will deem this irrelevant
and childish, letters are published in Newspapers eveerytime, no problem ever
been adressed, we're just here sacrificing, writing for minority who can pay
atention and pick up something, majority only goes to Mshasho GMP forums
and they wanna be future leaders, funny kids we have in Africa
the best education is the one parents give, parents aint teaching anything
global or patriotic, but maybe coz they didnt get good education

@MC2
MC, Poly tried but they were denied the status of a university
i can advice them on how to get their request for a university approved
they should make President Pohamba the rector or chancellor of Poly. lol.
PURE MADNESS. to me Unam is not just a university, it's business, it's
politcs, it's tribes, Herero and vambo empires
Im a die-hard fan of Nuuyoma but he actually know nothing about how
morden universities are supposed to be run, in fact he got a busy schedule
so he need to be freed from academic stresses and concentrate on politics
We need a chancellor for Unam who is just focusing on education and not
imperialists

Am agree with u with most points u made above, but not that to make H. Pohamba a chancellor of Poly just to get approved. Cos that is how UNAM started. Sure u will end up with all institution in mess. I see it like this: even if Poly was offering Geology while UNAM none, then Nujoma had just opted Poly to choose another course at UNAM to pursue his master as did for Geology. I don't really have gut with Nujoma in personal, but as long as he need to pull out where he can't fit. Why do u think in recent years Poly students ain't treated the same whn it come to NSAF help from MoE?
There are some proud tht we need to keep and that ain't necessary (old fashioned) throw away).
I always feel pity, our political aspects are within ourselves and to rank who is wiser or fool. To create fragments in our society and concentrate within ourselves that will just hurt us and not building at all. We never look outside the box. Only one way left to progress: Hate RDP and SWAPO (parties) same tym and LOVE NAMIBIA with her people and start dumping LAZY and WORK!

Good Post Homey...
I had to add that I'm not surprised by your ernomous creativity here coz I knew you had it from the start, both as Artist and a Productive Citizen.
Ye its true we need Nuclear physics to be taught and I don't really care which institution takes care of that, as long as we rip the benefit as a society than I'm satisfied!
Once again keep it up.
One!

Very nice Post Indeed;
Its very important to start training our own nuclear engineers, i do not care which institution is doing it, the sooner the better; Its so embracing to be the largest uranium producer but we do not even use 30% of uranium for the nation benefit, we continue to import electricity from South Africa and from Zimbambwe, while we have large deposit of uranium which we can use for our benefit, but what we are doing is to export it;
And its a time our government start taking care of our natural resources seriously, The government should be the largest share holder and not 50/50 with the European exploration company.
I would love to see the Epangelo mine taking control of all the exploration of the resources whether offshore or onshore. Its a time we sent Rio Tinto and others home home;

Hi everyone.
Interesting discussion with MMB being quites funny at times.
The issue of national control of resources need more attention now than before. We as the public could no longer believe the everyday excuses of the Government of " Namibia lack capacity therefore investors should be allowed to come and explore Namibia" however they wish. If you know there is a lack of capacity, why a hell don't you create one? thats the question i always have for the Government.
The Government is well aware ( and they always say it in the press ) that Namibia needs so many Doctors, Engeneers and so on. Now if you need so much special skills, why dont you avail so much funds to have people educated in that filed. I haven't heard of the programe in namibia created specially for scarce skills such as doctors and so on, e.g 100 people sent to studies in other countries every year and are paid for by NamGov. Instead the government is always waiting for other countries to give scholarships to them. Is that the reasons our leaders came up with Vision 2030, just for other countries to take us there through donations while we spend N$ 50 millions on independence celebration?
The GRN is well aware of the benefits of having natural resources in the hands of the natives. They know what it means to empower the public otherwise the politicians would not have farms ( land ), shares in mining comapnies, shares in fishing companies and shares everywhere. It is selfishnes, cowaldliness, and the misunderstanding of capitalism within our leaders that keep us behind the Vision 2030 schedule.
There is a good book titled "Dead Aid" by Dambiso Moyo. I hope our politicians find time to read it and start acting before public unrest.

I fully agree with you
other nations are helping us achieve 2030 by means of donations and consetional loans
is vision 2030 not supposed to be a result of our own hardwork? our politicians are funny

SWAPO leaders who were supposed to be the driving force behind vision 2030 are the ones who do not understand the whole document, its very pity that people expect them to provide directions and the way forward as far as vision 2030 is concerned!!! vision might be a very good plan on paper , but my dear brother, those goals will never be achieved as long as SWAPO is ruling with 2/3 majority in the parliament ,

Good Point,
I for one work at a family car wash, a part job to substantiate my Taxi fee to go to school, with that being said, We (at the car wash) get numerous dignified Government Heads off state and well known heads in the community like the Boxer 'Hitman', Nico Adima and most top soccer players. So these people gather here and start discussing issues in General with politics of course topping it. Just month ago, one of our customer is planning on running for Town council so he wanted a letter from us on which we show how loyal he is and what we think he is capable of doing for the community given the platform. We asked Him question regarding his approach to combat the poverty stricken society and he pointed out education as the key weapon to this.
I was given the responsibility of writting the letter on the communities behalf, since I'm the one that goes to school. But I was wobndering if doing this is a good course since I don't trust politicians, because he could be one of those who get your vote and forget to even come at the car wash since will probably be living the good life.
The question I have to the House is, How do measure trust, deception in our politicians, How do we unveil the Hidden Agenda, because we could be building Havoc with this letter!

There's no way you can test trust, just take a risk if it's worth giving a try
Politicians can be trusted too, but a hungry politician gonna fill his pocket first
and if he's caring he might remember the hopeless. i think the rich dudes like
Aupa Indongo could be good politicians since they have quite alot at a local level
i dont think they could steal these small funds that's allocateed to the poor
If the dude is civilized and seem to be a man of change then you can write the letter
and then observe what he's gonna do

U talking there MMB, cos i think with the typical resouces at hand such coarses should be one looked at first as to produce experts who will enable us to reap the best out of our natural resource. Its good from the export side but export wont do our economy good if its more on natural resources and in the long run we gonna lose out big time.
