Beijing [China], February 16 (ANI): In yet another example of China s debt-trap diplomacy, Kenya has been roped in a deal with a six-month debt repayment holiday worth USD 245 million.
The deal was struck a week after the Paris club of creditors, an informal group of creditors offered the same debt-service suspension worth USD 300 million until the end of June 2021.
The African nation has been struggling to meet the repayments, as some of the projects, including the Standard Gauge Railway - built as part of Beijing s Belt and Road Initiative, are not generating enough income to pay for themselves, South China Morning Post reported. ....

A wealthy group of private investors helped the national government to raise Ksh81 billion after it put up the country s infrastructural bonds for sale.
According to the Central Bank of Kenya (CBK), the government was initially targeting Ksh50 billion.
However, once the bonds were made available, there was an overwhelming number of bids totalling Ksh125 billion, of which Ksh81 billion was accepted.
This is in line with the recent trend in which the country has witnessed a high investor appetite for government securities.

National Treasury Cabinet Secretary Ukur Yatani (pictured) yesterday said the country would save close to Sh27 billion after China agreed to a standstill on debts due to Beijing between January and June.
This is on top of another Sh32.9 billion debt repayment holiday from 10 Paris Club countries, with Yatani noting that the cash would be critical in managing the country’s fiscal policy. ....
