Kenya: 70 days in office, Ruto intensifies foreign trips to woe investorsNAIROBI, Kenya - President Willaim Ruto who was sworn in as the country's 5th head of state has embarked on several foreign trips to regional, continental and global capitals in what could outdo his predecessor Uhuru Kenyatta.

Japanese PM voices security concerns in first talks with China's Xi - International - World

Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida on Thursday pressed Chinese leader Xi Jinping on regional security issues including North Korea, as Pyongyang fired the latest missile in a record blitz that has sent nuclear fears soaring. North Korea fired a short-range ballistic missile as Xi and Kishida prepared to meet, and warned Washington and its allies to expect a "fiercer" military response. Kishida's office earlier condemned the latest launch by North Korea, which adds to a flurry that began this month and has included an intercontinental ballistic missile. Biden said after his talks with Xi on Monday he was confident China did not want Kim Jong Un's regime to escalate tensions any further. Xi last held face-to-face talks with a Japanese prime minister in December 2019, when he met Shinzo Abe in Beijing, although he has spoken to Kishida by phone.

Growing import a growing concern

There is money in the import business. To put into context, what the country imported in nine months this year has surpassed the import of 2021. If the huge import bill is draining hard currency and INR, most of what we import is junk contributing to the increasing cases of non-communicable diseases. Value addition to our exports could improve our exports and offset the trade deficit, but this is missing. Restricting import of certain items may be against the free trade arrangements, but being responsible importers can help.
