Dr Chris Wamalwa on the Amendments of Tax Rates

It’s ill-advised for the government to increase tax rate during this trying moment of Corona Virus pandemic.
According WHO ,we are guided by positivity rate , it’s unfortunate that our positivity rate is going up.

The basic principles when it comes to budgeting if the revenue has reduced the logic dictates you harmonize your programmes.
The big problem lies with our governance ,we have been adversely affected by corruption scandals i.e KEMSA heist.

At this moment the government should have put in more measures to cushion the country. It’s the responsibility of the country to protect their people.

Our health workers are dying of covid_19 because they have no PPEs and poor pay .
