How did Bingu wa Mutharika approach economic development?
My approach was akin to a systems engineer designing a national economy. I would identify a clear goal, such as food security, and then systematically pinpoint the obstacles preventing its achievement – often issues like inadequate fertilizer or water access. My strategy was to design and implement specific, targeted interventions to overcome these bottlenecks. This meant practical solutions like subsidy programs for farmers and large-scale infrastructure projects such as the Green Belt Initiative for irrigation.
