Wow! They can do this in Kampala now?!!
 
We have surely developed. Well, we should have expected this; market rationality dictates that where there is demand, needs, wants, ingenuity will always forge a path to the  goods and services to satisfy those wants, needs or demands, Mr J.C. Muyingo, my brother (if we are still brothers, for I come from Kitgum, northern Uganda, that backwater of development).
 
Hurray to liberalisation!
 
Given this economic and market logic, may be eventually there will be a corollary political liberalisation, as the owners of capital agitate to ensure that social and economic policies support and reinforce each other, leading to greater demand for greater individual freedoms and liberties, and a range of choices among and between poltical parties analogous to the range of choices that the market provides for them in satisfying their material consumption, recreational and leisure needs (of our moneyed classes). You cannot create a middle class without the trappings of its entertainment, recreational and leisure needs.
 
Shame on you UPC demagogues who keep on ranting about how many dispensaries and hospitals you built under your checkered watch. Why should you think of disability when you can make people enjoy themselves and at the same time expand the tax base? Who wants to be reminded of death? Hospitals and dispensaries are sooooo 1960s, guys. Who needs UDC, to stifle initiatives, ingenuity and entrepreneurship? Who needs the Cooperatives, marketing raw agricultural products without any value added, susceptible to the uncertainties and vagaries of the international commodity markets? Think individual, private capital, market and entrepreneurship and we give you Tri-Star Apparel. We give you little girls dancing naked, if you wanted any microscopic evidence of a self-sustaining economy. Honest to God!
 
Mr J.C. Muyingo should understand that homosexuality, unless done for licenced and taxable prostitution, rather than private, sexual relations between lovers, is not productive work; therefore it is neither taxable nor is it allocated based on the rationlities of the market. As a result, it will not show up in GDP accounting. How does he think he can pitch a substraction from the the 7% average GDP output to the same guy who stands to lose the most from it?   
 
Well, who needs the Kabakaship; that ancient, conservative and fossilised relic of bygones! Why should we have those nnankasa dancers clad in woven grass when they can dance in their bare skin, thanks to the fudnamental change and the Ten Point programme of 1986? Imagine the tourism money that would be made, from those buxom Baganda
women gyrating and wiggling in their Kintu original suits! Markets! Markets! The Market, Mr J.C. Muyingo.
 
This J.C. Muyingo must be a northerner masquarading as a Muganda. How else would anyone be opposed to development, the way those northerners are fighting and killing their own people and stoppinmg investments and development from coming to them. Hurray to Development. Now those primitive, underdeveloped, backward northerners have just got one more reason to hate and envy Buganda to bits. They will think, those lucky bastards! Why are they on the right side of history every time? 1886, they got the first direct path to God with the CMS; 1900, they conclude a favoured agreement with the mother of all development, Imperial Britain; 1971, they are the celebrants and revellers; 1979, they are delirious with the palgue of merriment; 1986, they are both progenitor and progenies of fudammental change and look what advantages it comes with!
 
Hurray to Fundamental Change! Hurray to Economic Liberalisation! Hurray to the Market! Hurray to Development! Hurray to entrepreneurship!

Nude dances irk Mengo
By Mercy Nalugo

Nov 15, 2003

MENGO - A senior official at Mengo has asked President Yoweri Museveni to ban nude dances, popularly known as ekimansulo, saying they will undo Uganda's gains in the fight against HIV/Aids.

"When the president came out strongly against the homosexuals, they went underground. He should equally condemn the nude dancing," the Minister of Education and Sports in the Buganda Kingdom, Mr J.C. Muyingo, said.

He was presiding at the Open Day for Makindye Junior Academy in Luwafu last week.

Muyingo said the nude dance promoters are envying Uganda's success story in the fight against HIV/Aids.

"It's a contradiction for a government credited for having a success story in the fight against Aids to allow young girls dance naked on stage as men watch," he said. "It's a tragedy; this country is doomed."

Muyingo also asked government to facilitate a cultural and religious leaders campaign against certain western cultural practices.

"There seems to be a ploy to force bad cultures on us. We survived this campaign in the colonial era but it has been re-introduced with big money following it," he said.
