Top five reasons why Malawian Nyasa Times is Hated

mmalawi blog
1. The content. The Malawi Government and many of its supporters are against the content published in the UK based Nyasa Times because it openly tells of every little or big mistake committed by the government and the President, Bingu wa Mutharika.
2.Support from Western countries. The content of the Nyasa Times has  been quoted by reputed media around the world including the Voice of America (VOA). This legitimizes their content therefore ostracizing the voice of the Malawi government.
3. The writer's political affiliations. It is known that the editors of the Nyasa Times were part of a political party running on an entirely different platform.


4.Victim vs  bully. Whenever a government goes against the media, it becomes a bully and the media a victim. Throughout the years, the Nyasa Times and the Malawi Government have been playing the victim-bully game, which as a result has been advantageous for the online Newspaper as it gained sympathy and was exposed to more publicity.
5. Exaggeration/One sided. Some believe that the Nyasa Times Newspaper is one sided and exaggerates facts to make it appealing to readers.


These for many, are the reasons why the Nyasa Times is hated. Do you have other reasons? write them in the comments below.

Madonna, Malawi and Africa

The Queen of Pop strikes again! She wants to adopt another Malawian child. Why does she have to publicize her every move? Is it because she wants publicity or simply because she wants others to follow her footsteps. In reality, Malawians are tired of hearing Madonna rumbling about her trips to Africa and how she wants to change the World. The publicity surrounding her trips is simply outrageous. Every move that she makes while visiting Malawi is reported via Internet to the the World. Her accommodation, eating and drinking becomes news articles. Sadly, whenever this extensive reporting goes on, the victims are none other than us-the Malawian people who end up always getting some negative press. Way to go Madonna, you can adopt me too!

Bleek and Lulu (Maluv) News, Information,Discography, Video

Bleek and LULU (Maluv)
Listening to Maluv's Tingathe a composition by the duo, I couldn’t help remember the slogan of the current Democrat candidate, Barack Obama: Yes we can! We can bring Change and hopefully stop the deadly speed of the the AIDS pandemic. Maluv calls the church leaders and the politicians to unite in the fight against AIDS. The only cure is “Kupewa” or abstaining. This is an appropriate message given in clear and smooth vocals over a Malawian RnB track. Yes We can! And just like Barack Obama, the duo has demonstrated its prowess in the world of Malawian RnB.
For those living in Lilongwe, Bleek has been known in the RnB circles for the past 8 years. He joined Lulu, another renowned Malawian RnB pionneer to form Maluv (Malawian Love) to sing and produce an afro-Caribbean style of RnB.
These two Malawian gurus have worked with many Malawian artists and musicians including Soldier Lucius Banda, Annie Matumbi and Skeffa Chimoto.
According to their Myspace page, they are working on an upcoming album to be released later this year which will be appropriately called “Love”
Yes Malawi can! Yes its Malawi music can achieve something!
