Beer For Starving Baringo Residents

A Chinese company caused a stir in a village in Baringo County after donating beer as part of food aid to hungry residents.

Chuanshan International Mining Company donated more than 300 bags of maize, 20 cartons of cooking oil and over 20 cartons of a Chinese-brand beer.

Speaking during the relief food distribution in Katikit, Tiaty,

"Locals in this area love liquor so I saw it fit to make it part of donations to hunger-ravaged villages," said Mr Han Ke.


The locals do love their beer.  But you have to wonder if that is not, in some long winded way, part of the problem.

What a great idea.

Alcohol and quality of life.

I prefer a mimosa or a cosmopolitan. .. alcohol for drink aid... could mix it with vitamins and essential minerals as well..

Beer aside which I think this is a good marketing strategy how useless is that MP.  Government has donated 500 bags of maize but it has not reached there because of lack of fuel....maajabu kabisa. God priss rid us this kind of Mps
