officials in Malawi have been assailed by Western diplomats, international donors and civic groups for selling off the country's 167,000-ton emergency grain reserve and failing to account for the proceeds.

More corruption. Those in power steal, knowing full well there will be more free money from the west. Well, this time there should not be. Their is a hell of their own creation, repeating itself for the umpteenth time. Let them bail themselves out.

I feel sorry for the basket-weaver mentioned in the above article. It must be hell to look into your child's eyes and tell them there is nothing to eat. The leaders of Africa need to be held accountable. If their people weren't starving perhaps they could overthrow the crooks. I don't know what the solution is, but wasting more money by having it go into these thugs' bank accounts is not the way to go.

I remember First Lady Reagen getting behind food drives for Africa in the 1980's, now twenty years of exactly the same thing!
