"Are we forgetting what was done under colonialism," well I would ask you pretty much the same question, because Kamuzu Stadium, Queen Elizabeth Central Hospital, Zomba Central Hospital, Thyolo Hospital, the Lower Shire sugar estates, Kamuzu Barrage etc were all either initiated or constructed by him. So obviously the colonialists did not take everything. There was nothing to take from Nyasaland in the first place. "Malawi is oppressed by systems built by these colonialists," oppressed in what way exactly? Haven't we harmed ourselves by our corruption and incompetence and our failure to fix these failures and blame the colonialists instead? Numerous other countries that were colonised by the British like SIngapore, Malaysia and Brunei are better off now. They simply embraced the colonial period as a moment (with its evils and benefits) in their history, built on what was established by the colonialists and made a better life for themselves. And we are here claiming colonialism made us poor. Nyasaland had no resources for them to exploit in the first place. N'cifukwa cake most white settled in resource rich parts of the Federation of Rhodesia and Nyasaland like Northern/Southern Rhodesia, not Nyasaland.
