TRAVEL STORIES

On our flight from Addis Ababa 2 days ago, Zion and I sat next to a 26yrs old young Man from SUDAN called Abdul.

Abdul has been doing business since he was 16yrs old, since Sudan has been troubled, he buys electrics from Dubai and sells to different countries.

He said, I come to Uganda once every 2 months for one week holiday because it’s peaceful, people are really nice, I enjoy the food in Uganda.

And he is like since you guys have food, the population generally speaking doesn’t care about what matters, all this in not so good English.

He said for example Asians control 80% of electrics business , pharmaceutical supplies around same %age and I have never sat with a single Ugandan who cares about these topics.

He adds, if your focus is on less important things, you will never take time to learn from the Asians how that business is made and how you can also control a better part of the money.

He adds, if you don’t control things that make money, you become the visitors in your own country. You are the visitor, visitors don’t generally come with much and therefore don’t own much in the home.

He adds, you can’t control space you don’t fight for, eh. I was impressed by the young man and parted ways. I was challenged at the same time.

I wanted to tell him you guys make fun of me about the 2 planting seasons, some of you think am less brilliant one when I emphasize 2 planting seasons.

HOW TOURISM WORKS

In tourism, we have majorly 2 seasons, high season and what’s called shoulder season and both seasons are between 6-7 months.

HIGH SEASON

Starts June every year and ends September though for uganda October has started showing good signs as well.

SHOULDER SEASON

Shoulder season starts around the 15th of December and ends mainly end of February every year.

WHAT INFLUENCES THAT?

The high season is influenced majorly by the western world summer holidays where schools are on a long holiday.

Families and individuals tend to save up for this particular season and depending on the country, the holiday times vary from 14 days to months sometimes.

The low season is pushed my the winter seasons in the western world, the weather can be very tough forcing people to look for the warmer world like Uganda.

The baby boomers are those born soon after the Second World War and are generally retired have more time and money to travel anytime of the year.

Due to inheritances taxes in the western world, many retirees are preferring to spend on multi general family travels.

WHY WE FIGHT?

The lead time for most international tourism is between 9 to 12 months though some people book 2 to 3yrs in advance!

For about 6yrs now, when we are about to cash in, we have had disease outbreaks announcements from ministry of health or rebel stories which has reduced now.

The cashing comes after massive efforts invested in traveling around the world looking and convincing potential spenders about our potential.

When ministry of health announces disease outbreak in May like this year, Ofcourse we refund money paid in advance.

That too kills a year of business and the little that continues comes can’t sustain a business reason companies lay off staff and others close shop.

That too discourages efforts by entrepreneurs who either give up or choose other countries if they have the capacity to do so.

Like I have said before, entrepreneurs grow the economy not the politicians unless a politician is both but they are generally consumers.

And yes, like I have said again and again, there isn’t such a thing as political freedom without economical freedom, you can take that to the bank.

Therefore, the real engine of growth for countries are the entrepreneurial class, who risk everything to improve situations for themselves and for the country.

Poor countries are simply a summation of poor individuals and the rich country is a summation of rich individuals. Rich individuals in big numbers make a rich country.

DOMESTIC TOURISM

I will write about DOMESTIC TOURISM this week and how consumption or purchasing power can be enhanced.

Sitaane, 3 months ago, on the 21st of March, 2026, launched an attack on the life of Maama. However, sitaane miscalculated. The 21st of March is a good day for the Resistance. That is when we defeated the counter-attack of Idi Amin at Rugaando (12 miles from Mbarara) in 1979. God, using good doctors, saved Maama’s life and she is now recovering well.

Maama has done great things in the family, especially caring for the children during the 2nd phase of the Resistance between 1981 to 1986 when she was alone in exile and I was in the bush. She has been a great philanthropist with UWESO and she has contributed to the NRM politics in Ntungamo on top of her religious work.

I pray to God to get us to 100 years respectively so that we, among the other good things, see the birth of the East African Federation which is the Insurance of Africa against any future domination or marginalization.

Ugandan army

I spent today afternoon giving a lecture to Generals and Senior officers in Mbuya accredited to different countries around the world as Defence Attaches/Advisors about Ugandas potential and how we can exploit that potential for our own good.

The generals and senior officers were very attentive and they asked many questions which was great. Left them excited about positioning Uganda and was inspired to give more of these talks to groups like theirs.

Today at Nakasero, I met Mr. Aliko Dangote and we discussed the proposed East African regional refinery.

I informed him that from the very beginning, we have always opposed the export of raw materials without value addition. That is why Uganda delayed oil production because we insisted on first having a refinery. Without refining our oil, it would not make economic or strategic sense to simply export crude oil while others benefit from the finished products.

I, therefore, welcomed the idea of a bigger regional refinery because our objective is African integration and shared prosperity. We cannot continue operating as fragmented and weak markets. If East Africa works together, such projects become more viable and beneficial to our people.
Uganda is ready to support the regional refinery initiative while also continuing with the development of our own refinery in Hoima.
