Norbert Mao
I am reading your writings and pounding my head on the wall at the very
same time. Seriously is Ugandas problem today creating a pension reform?
Seriously is that what Uganda needs today? To what effect? And I know when
you travel in other countries you see these systems and how they work and
how useful they are, but as you try to copy those systems you fail to
release that there is a ground work that was done for many many years before
they reached to pension reform. You are neglecting that ground work and you
are going up to pension reform. I have been reading about the health
insurance network Rwanda has done and it is creating more victims than
saving Rwandese. And why? Because someone saw Canadians with a health
insurance plan and that is a good system and we need it in Rwanda. Did
Canada start with medical health insurance plan? The answer is no it started
with creating some very basic needs being solved. Africans must stop to copy
things for those things you copy from other countries you simply cannot
maintain them.
And I continue that if I was in a government in Uganda and only created an
accessible medical system, a system where a patient can go and see a doctor
but get medication, you can save more lives than going after these concocted
schemes that you do not even have the structures to run. A right to clean
water can save more lives and is a more achievable goal than this scheme. If
for example you stop to make Kampala the industrial area, send factories
into different cities and regions, you will have the population follow those
factories. Imagine if Mukwano industries was built in Gulu, which they could
do for Gulu has power supply, all Mukwano employees would move out of
Kampala, they would live better lives in better housing than packing
themselves into Kampala mizigo, and their life expectance would improve. But
the people remaining in Kampala would have a more space to live in. This
serves every one right. These honestly are achievable goals than sitting and
drumming for pension reform, for who exactly in the 2013 screwed up Uganda?
A pregnant woman threw herself off a Mulago floor, and you as opposition is
failing to make that a standing block to make child birth accessible for you
re busy working on pension reform? What is hurting Uganda the most today? Is
it people failing to get pension or it is women that die when giving birth?
So when you look at the two problems given the resources you have and the
population you have which solution is accessible? Life is about setting
priorities, in Sweden when parents get a baby the grandparents qualify for a
paid leave of absence to be with their grandchild. Canada developed as it
is, when you puke a baby we give you I think 6 months and you are done. Even
the father does not qualify for one. Why? Because life is about setting
priorities and today handing both parents a leave of absence is not a
priority to Canadians, yet we would love to have one. We simply cannot
manage it today. I just get so tired with Africans copying everything they
see in very country and they jump on it. Because you have seen a revolving
restaurant in Toronto you go to Ugandan you build it. Shouldnt you start by
getting a reliable power supply? Why is common sense failing to be common in
Africans?
What are your priorities Norbert Mao?

Dear Abbey and Hannah,
As you can see from the media, the pension reform debate is a complex one
and that is why even the loudest politicians have very little to say. It
reminds me the time I was in parliament and debated the Patents Act and the
Copyright Act. The house was virtually empty.
Even this one needs a committed core group to examine the key principles.
The first question should be whether it is time to open up the pension
sector. In an environment where regulatory authorities are weak a lot of
vultures are going to feast on innocent citizens. If even where regulation
is strong the vultures take advantage of ordinary people, how much more
vulnerable will Uganda be? The second question would be the standards for
whoever decides to be a service provider.
I have a friend who was a minister of health in Ghana. She sat me down and
told me how Ghana managed to get health insurance for its citizens. I would
make health insurance a first priority. I am afraid the pension sector
reform may end up creating the kind of chaos we have in the management of
taxi parks and boda bodas!
We are studying the pension sector reform debate and we will make our key
positions clear early next month. If any of you have any materials and views
you would like to share with us, we shall be very grateful.
My best always,
Norbert Mao

Its TRUE.....we miss Hon.Mao in parliament. He should consider going
back. I understand Ms. Beti kamya is considering standing in lubaga
again. The two belong in parliament and would add value to the debates
there.
I've nothing to comment on pension schemes as I cancelled out mine
recently here in the UK. I hated the idea of both the taxes and pension
being deducted off my wages. Yes, im still paying National insurance
which covers the NHS and other stuff but its less now.
To be honest, I think the government here is privatising almost every
institution. The NHS will also go at some point. No government wants to
stretch itself anymore under the current complicated global economics.

Mao,
Liberalization of the pension sector will create more harm than good and
will only serve the purpose of taking away our hard earned capital to
liquidate and service other developed countries. It will only enrich the
fund managers who won't be investing this money in our country, we would
rather modernize and improve NSSF stump out corruption than donating our
money to vultures.
please go back to parliament and fight for such issues. Forget about DP and
go back to parliament as MP.Though ive not yet done any research about the
dynamics of the pension sector in other countries this thing called
repatriation is not gd 4 the development of our country. And i know that
liberalizing the pension sector has failed in the UK with more stringent
financial laws.
Nobody listens to our views as stakeholders.The MPs on UAH are pedestrians.
there ARE NO ACTIVE PARTY REPRESENTATIVES on this forum. The police
computer expert, Immaculate woman, sent by Kale Kayihura has also turned
out to be a spectator of all sorts.
