On Tuesday, CNN.com carried a positive story about Kenya for a change. The article titled 'Kenya's $50 Billion Megaprojects: What can $50 Do for a Country' is quite the piece, and below we publish it word for word.
Lamu Port – The multi-faceted Lamu Port and Lamu-Southern Sudan-Ethiopia Transport Corridor (LAPSSET) project is as big as the name suggests, with an outlay of $23 billion across three countries.
The city of Lamu at the southern end of the Corridor is a cornerstone of the project. It will be transformed into a trade hub through the construction of a new 32-berth port, which will be used to supply locations along the line.
