The egotism you are seeing displayed by those two students at MUK is emblematic of I think, African culture and a broader organizational culture often seen in the public sector. Just egos on display: -She missed the preparation meetings, so we must exclude her from the event. -I am the Guild President, so I must speak whether I am on the agenda or not. -I will suspend him just to remind him who the Guild President is. etc. This behavior is quite common across public service. Preoccupied with hierarchy, people will even take deep offense simply because their formal titles were omitted during introductions. Senior staff expect excessive subservience from junior staff (e.g., guild president vs culture minister). To me, this is nonsense. Ultimately, egotism ends up fueling unnecessary conflicts at the expense of service delivery.

One of the off topic things you will take out of the graduate school is taking coffee. Here is a cute cup of Elgon's arabica coffee made at home.

Hello @Uganda_Expozed You potentially caught and ate a piece of potential scientific history. The fish you caught is likely Bagrus bajad (common name Bayad; local name Lanya). While delicious for you guys, a specimen would have been gold for us fisheries scientists. Historically, the fish is not expected to be present in the Aswa River basin where Aruu falls belong. While we have an isolated observation of the fish on river Aswa from 2015 (see small isolated yellow area in the map below), confirming your catch a bayad means updating our official distribution map below to possibly include the entire Aswa basin. Our recent fishing in nearby areas missed it but we are heading back soon. We will not leave Aruu Falls until we catch and preserve one. I would be interested in: -More photos of the fish before slaughter and roasting? -information from your guides on how common the fish is at the falls and other parts of the river. Safe travel to Kampala

the minster will soon demand that female doctors kneel down when talking to her.

the fuel sellers will soon need the font size button to be able to fit 5 figures in that box.

For some reason, NO Ugandan looks for a job for public service. Primary drivers are money, authority (misuse of officer) over others, stealing, etc. This mentality cannot build a state.

Jinja city is unlike other cities. It is unique. Jinja is the only city where you will go and encounter native grown hard-wood trees on the street. -A row of Mvule -Milicia excelsa, and an individual of Musambya-Markhamia lutea.

I hope Ugandans know that upsurge in wall fences is because people have money. It is away for those who are able to cope with insecurity.

But we a are quarrelsome species. How do you expect humans to engage endlessly without quarreling?

I was on YouTube one time and saw how farmers in Asia stop pawpaw trees from attaining heights that make harvesting difficult. They do so by bending a partially cut stem. At that time, I already had one tree that is as tall as a pine tree. I acted very fast on a younger tree. Unfortunately, a few months later, I have lost my tree and nice fruits.

Writing is so funny. I literally had a writer's block for some time, staring at a the screen for hours. I went to the bathroom, and suddenly the block went off. The words started flowing.

This evening, I encountered a revealing quote from the Governor of the Bank of Uganda that is critical to the judiciary. A quote like this used to mean little to me. Recently, however, I have dived deep into issues of governance and trust after realizing how profoundly governance influences outcomes of management practices in the fisheries sector, where I work. This curiosity led me through hundreds of pages of relevant reading, including Niall Ferguson’s 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘎𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵 𝘋𝘦𝘨𝘦𝘯𝘦𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯: 𝘏𝘰𝘸 𝘐𝘯𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘵𝘶𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴 𝘋𝘦𝘤𝘢𝘺 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘌𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘰𝘮𝘪𝘦𝘴 𝘋𝘪𝘦, Bo Rothstein’s 𝘚𝘰𝘤𝘪𝘢𝘭 𝘛𝘳𝘢𝘱𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘗𝘳𝘰𝘣𝘭𝘦𝘮 𝘰𝘧 𝘛𝘳𝘶𝘴𝘵, and, of course, @SpireJim’s 𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘋𝘪𝘦𝘥 𝘞𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘞𝘦 𝘓𝘪𝘷𝘦𝘥: 𝘌𝘴𝘴𝘢𝘺𝘴 𝘰𝘯 𝘎𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘯𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦, 𝘚𝘰𝘤𝘪𝘦𝘵𝘺 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘗𝘰𝘸𝘦𝘳 𝘪𝘯 𝘜𝘨𝘢𝘯𝘥𝘢. A common thesis across all these books is the crucial role the rule of law plays in society. Rothstein, for instance, argues that transforming a society from mutual distrust (which harms the economy) to widespread trust (which promotes economic activity and investment) requires impartial institutions, particularly the 𝐣𝐮𝐝𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐥𝐚𝐰 𝐞𝐧𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐜𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭. Reflecting on the Governor's words makes one wonder. To what extent has judicial weakness or compromised legal integrity contributed to the rising fuel prices, inflation, and the ongoing fall of UGX against the US dollar? How does affect the capacity of Ugandans to cope with these issues? For God & My Country
