Why does Kenya have low income?

Answer 1

Kenya is a low ecenomically developed country because people are corrput because they are suffering in poverty because no major success or profit is made because facilities are very weak because... if tourism can bring in more money for Kenya the government can give more oppertunities to the local people and they themselves can provide them and their famillies more opertunities and a better comfort in life.

By,Radhika

regardless of tourism lifting the economy still Kenya is poor because of the individualistic thinking whereby people thinking of enriching themselves rather than the country.I think Kenyans should stop having this mindset of the government coming to their rescue because realistically the people on top will not do such for they are benefiting from poverty in the country so why should they help you???. Kenyans should helping themselves by going and borrowing loans and starting up businesses and uplifting their living standards that's one way Kenya can develop.

Answer 2

Actually it is not. Kenya has the 86th largest economy of any country and one of the highest in Africa. It has a pretty steady GDP growth rate as well, at about 5%, which is pretty much in the middle range. However, its citizens do not tend to earn much money, it is on the lower half of that category.

Answer 3

Kenya is poor due to the simple reason that it is still a developing country! and due to land owners and the payment on there houses moast people cant afford to pay it.so they dig up and make slums.

Answer 4

This is because Kenya is an underdeveloped and has no resources such as petrol and gold etc....
