I have nothing against all these real estate development...but in reality most of these offices and malls are empty. There is no real economic growth in this country.. government infrastructure spending (borrowed from China) is keeping our economy on the move..the middle class is so thin. I wish we had investors investing in manufacturing industries etc that would spur real economic growth. The service industry relies on a middle class with enough disposable income.

[@generalflaviusaetius1997]

Yeah, Kenya's growth's mainly in the service industry. I think it's been moving really fast. And every day I hear new upper-middle - high income gated communities being advertised while still in their conceptual stage. But I still think there's opportunity in the service industry since despite the problems in the country, there is a greater number of wealthier people, in the country than 10-20 years ago, in my humble opinion. But I also keep telling close friends the real opportunity is in enabling manufacturing in Kenya which is growing dismally and the service industry cannot grow forever, eventually it'll hit saturation point and prices will fall, especially with every developer focussing on high-upper middle income sector. As an engineer, I can tell you that most engineering jobs nowadays tend to be sales engineer jobs here, just glorified sales people who know enough to do a bit of maintainence of pre-built foreign machinery, electronics, telecoms stuff, etc, but very little to advance their fields. And the problem is eventually, there'll be no more jobs for engineers aside from entrepreneurship.

[@emmanuellimo6139]

@@generalflaviusaetius1997 yeah it's a bubble that may or may not burst. The question we should be ask ourselves is it sustainable..? My answer is no... There is already an oversupply, malls are having to cut their rent rates and even more springing up. The market is near saturation. A service economy needs an internal consumer class which is small here. No advanced nation skipped the industrial phase.

High rises are not a problem the problems are: 1. They are not integrated into a cohesive zoning plan 2. High density urban housing requires a generous "urban fabric" - parks, bike lanes, light rail, mass transit buses or trains, foot paths etc. 3. Ideally they should be close to where people can walk, cycle or take a short bus ride. Parks are important, children and adults need relief from concrete enclosed spaces during weekends or free days. Parks with play areas and lots of open green space.

This whole "documentary" is one very clever advert for that high rise building😁

Yes this is sponsored and has a sponsor board. We have have had several such sponsored content on this series

[@richardmadrian5695]

@@ChamsMediaTV yeah I agree with you - but the building is the sponsor of the content. Advertorial stuff

[@ChamsMediaTV]

@@richardmadrian5695 Yes! It is called product placement. Like Watch Connecting Kenyans that we did with Communications Authority of Kenya. Equity Sponsors daring abroad, we feature their products and clients. Ecobank Sponsored us and we had product placement. We have more new such programmes coming up

My issue is about the Government why can't they issue licenses for the developers to finish their projects in time. This is what fades me up with the government, all they know is to ask for bribes from the investors very disappointing

Upperhill is never meant for all this developments.i used to work there,glad we moved offices.try getting out of upperhill in the evening,it is grid lock.it sucks.talk of the narrow narrows,congested spaces.upperhill life will be unbearable.we should develop another city,well planned from sewelines,water pipelines,parks,roads,walkways,cycling lanes and recreational fields after work. upper hill is not ideal for me,right now it needs above ground railway line for express transport out of it to town and other areas. i like how americans have built their cities.

[@umaganonu]

I was with you until "I like how americans have built their cities." American cities are the exact opposite of what you've described, especially with regards to cycling lanes and mass transit.

How much did you say a two bedroom would cost?
