Kenya is a charm, for sure if it continues like this it will be one of the most developed countries in Africa, greetings from Brazil 🇧🇷😀👍🏽
🇰🇪 🇰🇪 🇰🇪
it already is
Kenya has no competition in East Africa, as a South African, I must say that I am proud of my East Africa Kenyan brothers and sisters, soon Kenya will be at the same level as South Africa in terms of infrastructural development and has potential of surpassing South Africa in the next 10 years just by the look of things.
who is building infrastructure in South Africa . who is controlling the economy in South Africa . South Africa the most unequal country in the world out of 164 countries. 10% of the population controls 80 % of the wealth . The 10% do not reflect the general population . Other social factors just as important . Both Kenya and South Africa should work on social cohesion more than infrastructure .
@@pplopde4437 You seem to be having a challenge understanding my argument, let me give you numbers, (1) South Africa has about 60 million citizens and of that about 85% is indigenous (2) 67% of the middle class in indigenous, (3) 65% of millionaires is indigenous South Africa, (4) over the past 25 years, the government of indigenous people spent hundreds of billions of dollars building huge roads infrastructure, huge airport, stadiums, some of the best science facilities, hospitals, clinics thousands of schools, etc (5) hundreds of new successful indigenous South African farmers, many mine owners like Patrice Motsepe.
The list is long, the reason why 80% of the economy is still control by whites is because most of that is control by international companies like Anglo America, etc.... and a few white families. Now what's needed in South Africa to address that is policy shift. Hope that helps.
@@gedenironald8635 Thanks for contradicting your data . Yes 80 % of economy is controlled by 10% . There is a difference between wealth and income . Unsustainable .
Great shots and narration by the Kenyan Historian
Proud of my country Kenya 🇰🇪 🇰🇪 🇰🇪
Enock Sikola our Kenyan Historian 🇰🇪
That's not Kenya's tallest building. There is a spike on top of BRITAM towers which makes it taller than GTC
It's the tallest by occupiable space.
Britam Towers is only tall because of it's extended steel pole ... remove it and it's no longer the tallest.
@@morrismuchiri6410 Architecturally still means bc of the spire Britam is the tallest
@@musyokamaingi7131 you were probably not listening .the Key word used in that video is "occupiable space".The rest of stories is irrelevant
He literally said 'in terms of occupiable space'
Congratulations, looking good.
They probably bugged the place just like the AU headquarters 🤦🏾♂️💀
The Chinese are not trustworthy
Why would they bug a commercial building?...so they can record apartment residents showering lol
@@Brian-bo4bz the Chinese 👀
Mr Sikoli sasa umewacha the historian channel ama?
Great improvement china 🇨🇳 Kenya 🇰🇪 ❤
I love Kenya
GOD WE PROTECT WESTLAND AND NAIROBI AND ALL CITIES OF KENYA BEFORE YOU. PROTECT THEM WITH YOUR BLOOD. SEND ANGELS TO PROTECT THIS CITIES EACH AND EVERY SECOND FROM MALICIOUS PEOPLE
What the hell is wrong with you? Do you mean to say the buildings that fall from any issue like earthquake or terrorist or fire or something is because of God? You Christians are fear mongers
Yeah in terms of occupyable space.
The people of Kenya should feel proud that they can witness the development of their nation in their lifetime. Preparing a better world for the next generation, providing a better life for their children and grandchildren. Their debt problem can pay it off slowly, when the next generation gets a better education , then they will have the ability to pay debts without being burdened.
Kathara, kianyaga high alumni. Fly high brother
Kenya's tallest building is 88Nairobi with 46floors plus a helipad.
He he. Ndugu. The length of a building is not determined by the number of floors... its determined by height
@@KenyanHistorian well said 👏🏽 love your work. Always keeping up with your documentaries. You are a National Treasure 🌎🇰🇪
It is the tallest residential building in subsaharan region. Not the tallest building
@@KenyanHistorian sikuizi kwani wachinku wanakulipa ngapi venye unawasifu
@@licioussamuels Unataka pia kulipwa?
Kenya looks magnificent, and i live the amount of greenery, my only advice tk Kenyans is to maintain greenspaces and build more parks, kenyans should model there city after Atlanta GA which is a city full of trees
It's like we don't know Britam is the tallest 😏
They clearly say by occupiable space
LOL Britam Towers is only tall because of it's extended steel pole ... remove it and it's no longer the tallest.
And someone says china doesn't help??
Ona hii fala

@@licioussamuels unaweza toa comment yako pia, its an open space. if you had the education you will understand that, don't act like a class 8 student mwenye akili ilikosa... and soon mybe you will be a stupid father or mother soo grown some balls instead of loud mouth,
The US would have just donated 'aid' and called it a rap. The US is NOT in the business of helping African nations become self reliant by building up their infrastructure and economy.
Reminds me of the world trade Centre in design🙄
These really kenyan reallt i have nt been their 10 years .
Parking problems and traffic in the city still remains a problem.
That's a good problem to have. It means you have an economy that's thriving. Soon some engineer or intuitive person will design a system to alleviate traffic problems. Win Win.
One day we be able to build our own buildings many of the buildings we have are not kenyan owned true measure will be when we start building our own instead of foreign investment.
housing
This is just my study. I want my Kenya to be independent for his growth.
can you show us a single major economy that is not driven by foreign investment? African and Kenya are poor because of little investment especially in infrastructure. And why talk of Sri Lanka here, you seem not aware of what you are talking, GTC is investment by AVIC of China and that dont prevent anyone including Kenyans or foreigners making investments, kindly trave the world and see for yourself how rich places like London, New York or Dubai developed by simply attracting rich investors.
Did you happen to do your research well and confirmed its the tallest in Nairobi
yes with "occupiable space.that the keyword
Listen ape. Improve your listening skills
"with occupiable space" yes anyway nice video
Kenya's tallest building is britam
Africa tallest building
China is doing Great in Africa
The semi new highway interstate road route that was developed! Should The root for residential infrastructure townhouses built-in under the bridge which fortified the bridge endurance beyond the one century! And diverse a modern 15,000 to 27,000 full townhouses structures under the route way corridor through out metropolis encompasses 16 miles of area of Nairobi which my townhouses structures under the bridge may be lower. Than those visuals there in reality that comprehend it's coordination potential is access to 100,000 plus under the route way bridge corridor development infrastructure of townhouses ! If the issue occurs than halt route way interchangeable traffic use for twenty years Consensus to consolidate residential infrastructure advancement inner Metropolis Nairobi ! Keen Decision Beyond Aspiration Modern Residential Infrastructure Resettlement Expansion The roads routes will eventually detour out Nairobi with or without the new bridge corridor junction passes and clover route round abouts ! If only open your eyes and see the millenniumist point of coherence to equal development* applicable plus in future foundation of a nation ! Reluctant responsibility has to conserve seeth to content ! Choice today and procure tomorrow available as a national asset " energy the zealot cause *
Kenyan police must protect this buildings from managing lifts and fire extinguisher and all safety equipments from malicious people just like the way developed countries do.
@2:20 the streets seems unmarked and untidy. Good buildings but poor road management and maintenance: a critical facet in the development of a community on a localized level and a country’s economic growth nationally and globally.
One day at a time, Rome was not built in a day.
Jealousy, is that you talking? 😂
@@Justampleboy Must you argue about everything. The guy is very right. The expressway looks good from above but the other road (Msa rd, uhuru highway) looks pathetic especially when it rains. It has not been fixed.
@@chesshudsen4643 must you two guys be criticizing everything?? 🙄 Give credit where its due, "it has not been fixed" simply means it will be fixed with time. Last time i checked the lower road is undergoing some repairs though at a slower pace. So be patient and appreciate whats being done to our beloved country.🤌🏽
Chill Mr. Miller !! The streets are untidy because the construction works are ongoing. Give the contractor time & all will be well.
Tofu drege
Chinese propaganda
Wako almost kuchukua port yetu
I wonder they are targeting next.
Are they taking it to China or you receive monthly profit dividends from it?
@@salimyakub6417 collateral
I honestly hope you are not being deliberately rude... Paid bot
It's a private investment
I am very happy and proud to see Kenya is developing. Only the part honestly I want to share is that I worried of the intention of the investor in Kenya. Big investment sometimes comes with inreturn benefits of that entity. I would be more happy when Kenya itself invest Kenya tax payer money in developing this country. Already Kenya is paying his investor 1.3 billion Kshiling as fined. Still we need to learn from this and look for fair investment. Else, Sri Lanka is the example.
investments are not loans.
This is private investment not a loan
My thoughts exactly we keep praising foreign investments as kenya developing when it isn't. When our own people become capable of building such buildings then we can say kenya is trully developing. We can do it we just need a government to create the environment
@@Brian-bo4bz its a government of CHINA 🇨🇳. Investment. One of the last thousand. They are halting most of their investments for a new strategy for Africa
@@DanDan-ks4jo EAst or west non of them is good. U are familiar with the west dont be blinded by shiny objects
😂😂😂
Everything belongs to China 🇨🇳 theirs a price to pay 💰 ask Sri linka
That's a private investment no debt here
Business to business, it's usual. Do not cry!
Is China paying for this? Who owns this China gov or Kenya? China investing in Africa so why not bail out its own real estate economy (Evergrande)
Their real estate economy is difficult to bail out because it's more so a social problem spilling out into an economic problem.
Ohhhhhhhhhhh!!!!! the evil west hate it!
It is a private investment that is. Not affiliated to any government
these outsiders who always think of only evil...btw except roads and energy sector...other sectors are mostly built by the private sector.
You sound bitter.
Yall better build your own building yall letting people take over
Are you aware american military bases, in the US, are financed by Arab money?
Propaganda
So true Britam is the tallest
@@licioussamuels listen well, "GTC is the tallest building ..in terms of occupiable space"
@@arthurparagon1790 The title says otherwise.
hata huyo Kenyan historian the way he's been worshipping china lately you'd think Kenya is a Chinese charity dumpsite..
That's what I said about the US/Africa Summit. They didn't even mention the nation's. Why is it that on the continent you are identified by your nationality like Kenyan, Rwandan, South African, Nigerian, Liberian, Lybian, Egyptian,, and Sudanese yet outside of Africa they just call you Africa! How disrespectful and arrogant.
do you guys take time to watch the video before you comment?
