Come year 2006, tall expectations

Tanzania in the end of 2005 held presidential and paliamentary elections. HE J.M. Kikwete, the CCM party presidential candidate won by landslide. CCM also won most parliament seats.
As of now we have an almost brand new cabinet: key ministries (Finance and Foreign) have women ministers, and there is quite a reasonable gender representation in the setup.
The year has come with old and new problems:- unemployment, armed robbery on the rise, famine in some parts of country, falling water level in hydro dams, rising petroleum prices ..... the list is long.

Tanzanians are keenly waiting for solutions and guidance of how to be guided to participate in problem-solving. It was not taken kindly, therefore, when one of the first statements of the new MPs was to ask for pay rise.
