GEOECONOMICS - Pundit watch and learn

Mexico minting top dollar due to US-China trade war. This is what I have been seeing Ruto wanting to mint - before GenZ nonsense - actively positioning as the western tech capital frontier. In last Silicone Valley blitz he brought a few billion dollars.

Goon Z really took out the sail off Whiteman attempt to sell Kenya in Silicon valley.

Kenya has some way to get "investable" grade destination.

Bado frontier.

Ruto couldn't hack it. I don't Americans would be afraid due to risk of protests. Ruto is just unfocused thug

Ruto was very focused but naively failed to address restive hustlers after promising mana. I agree with Pundit Kenya is not 'investable' yet -- but more on the political stability front. Basically you need to be at Grade B+ for manageable risk. The toil and discipline required to get to this requires benevolent dictatorahip to tame whining GenZ brats who cannot see beyond their noses. Tuko mbali bado.

Money follows talent and needs among other things. Including shifting political winds. Bulk of the regional countries now are BRICS and pro-China - which gives Kenya an opening better than the 'regional hub' positioning. See how Mexico has ridden the decoupling wars - it's not only geography but proactively laying the ground for Chinese firms that is aiding Mexico. Those factories could have near- or friend-shored in Vietnam, the Philippines or India but all those are stupidly antagonistic to China.

Govt has to create opportunities, not jobs. policy change is the only way to do it.
