Many signs show Kenya attracts again tourists and investors

Europe look at the coast as a place to stay like ten years ago

The Ministry of Tourism reports that in the first two months of 2017 the number of visitors on vacation increased by 20 percent compared to the previous year and reached figures higher than those of the last five seasons, a study of a continent's economic survey Nero puts Kenya in third place for the economic attractiveness, after Morocco and South Africa, multinationals in every production and distribution sector continue to open branches in Nairobi and the surrounding area.
In short, Kenya has returned to be a country where not only to spend a happy time of relaxation and adventure, but also an interesting business field to study and do just to revive activities that suffer from the economic crisis of the Old Continent.
This potholes of possibilities let you go back to Kenya as it has been in the past, and there is a new "gold race" for many subjects and different social classes.
Carrefour CEO recently declared, after the inauguration of Nairobi's second branch, leading Kenya to level with an industrialized and "Europeanized" country since South Africa, which if he did not have so much to do and work Still in life (?) Would move with her family to Karen and surroundings and would eat in the morning at the giraffes that overlook the window of her villa, as in the legendary Manor hotel.
While the Government is concerned about maintaining power for the next four years and the prices of basic foodstuffs continue to rise, just as in Italy, France and Spain, security is back to being a strong point in Kenya and the Foreign Ministries Half-wayed worlds remove their features.
The Kenya Tourist Board director in London has happily hailed the return of British tourists to the country, recalling that for many years the British have been to the top of the visitors and only for a few years have shed the scepter to Americans and Chinese.
Chinese people who continue to engage in public procurement contracts but also begin to cultivate (in their own way) some African wickedness.
And we come to our Malindi and Watamu. Balala's recent policy of diversifying destinations, Malindi for business, conferences, meetings, incentives and services in general, Watamu for sun, sea, nature and water sports would seem to seize the first fruits.
Even in the low season some resorts in Watamu remain open and await unusual tourists, from Indians to Japanese, from Africans to other Africans. While in Malindi such as the Ocean Beach Resort at this time are full thanks to UN conferences and other international associations, but also residences and bed and breakfasts never close.
August expectations are also good, and even better for next winter, where some airlines plan to land in Mombasa and are preparing to enter into early contracts with Malindi Airport, which at the end of the year could already land at least Airbuses from one hundred and fifty places.
In this context, our portal, which has been the benchmark and thermometer of this region for nine years, indicates a return on real estate purchases, business start-ups, property management or ownership surveys and other forms of business.
In Kenya, it is known that everything is cyclical and, as Ernest Hemingway said, "a truth at dawn is a lie at noon," but the signs recall those of 2005 when it was preparing for two memorable seasons.
Let's get ready, knowing that today we have the added value of a higher security, the awareness of many residents that this is no longer the country of Benghazi and not even the place where everyone can do that cabbage they want but that the new rules also have Made the "transversal" elements that here have done everything except the good of this country and the people who live there.
