German president funguses steinmeyer wants to give you impetus to bilateral relations with kenya if hes laid the Foundation Stone for a joint industrial make a tronics Training Center in the capital nairobi with his counterpart who cannot or steinmeier has described africas Economic Development as one of europes key interests so far his focus in kenya has been on Climate Change now hes looking. How germanys much admired model of Vocational Training can boost opportunities for young people. Soon nearly 300. 00 apprentices receive training at this center in the kenyan capital each year the German Government is providing 5 and a half 1000000 euros for the project.

The german president praised kenyas development into eastern africas i t. The Technology Sector now accounts for 200000. 00 jobs and 10 percent of the countrys economy.

And so suffering. Steinmeyer on its counterpart who kenyatta paid a visit to the institute of science and Technology Work kenyatta was eager to show his countrys enthusiasm for Vocational Education starring mara praised his own countrys dorji cation system that combines theoretical training with practical training at companies. He also made it clear that africas continued Economic Development is in europes own interest. Steinmeyer says germanys full development hopefully if again youre encompasses about half a 1000000000 euros lets talk about that with said on a call whos in nairobi. First of all why is germany so keen on pumping all that money into nigeria into kenya rather. Well kenya is basically basically germanys biggest trading partner east africa and it is the biggest economy in the region so what basically became clear over the last few days is that germany seems to see kenya as a stabilizing force in the region so for one thing they are there fighting terrorism for example in somalia and in kenya as well and theyre also like germany a refugee hosting nation so investing in kenyans and especially young kenyans and educating them is something that is apparently seen as something that will stop satellite as the region as a whole if there were good returns for investors what was even more interest from German Companies is as far as the best words in kenya go. Yes that was a question that was asked many times by several people here and kenya in the last few days and that was and so and German Companies are still very german investors are still very hesitant about investing not only in kenya but in africa as a whole for an african countries and well i actually had a couple of answers for that one he said that that there needs to be more information about the situation on the grounds of people knew what was happening or how that you know on the ground is they wouldnt they may be more willing to invest and he but he also said that there is a lack of Skilled Labor still in kenya and and in other african countries and also that that that there is. That that corruption and red tape are still issues and thats also something that people talk with the kenyan president. And its something that maybe that perhaps risk averse German CompaniesCompanies Might be. Might see as an obstacle. Like to be german business would like to be a 100 percent sure on their investments but is there anything here germany could actually learn from. Yes definitely i mean we saw that on my visit to the eye which is basically the one of africas leading one of the leading innovation hubs and Technology Hubs in africa and one thing that you notice and one thing that became clear there is that a lot of innovations come out of the mobile money mobile banking market so for example the mobile Banking Service and pessah has had an effect on the lives of many kenyans so they can steal everything from buying their groceries to. Getting loans from about mobile Banking Services so that is something that has also spurred innovation in other areas and that is something that at least the german president is aware is something that that germany is still lagging behind on and something that they would that germany probably needs to embrace in the near future german so lovely as you go there right so low they go thank you very much for.
