In Kenya, crime and terrorism are deeply linked, not least by the failure of successive Kenyan governments to control either.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
There are no automatic links between poverty and terrorism. Among millions of poor people in the world, only a few turn to terrorism.
Criminality is always the result of poverty. Countries that experience such a fundamental change as we have - we had the apartheid regime and must now develop a multicultural democracy - must necessarily pass through a phase of high crime rates.
Poverty does not cause violence and terrorism. Lack of education does not cause terrorism.
In terms of competitiveness of new global environment, Kenya will have absolutely no choice but to tackle the most important constraint to its development: it has been corruption.
Poverty is not the root cause of crime.
Terrorism can go anywhere where there is not strong government, or government that cannot control its hinterlands.
Zimbabwe has far fewer tourists than South Africa or Kenya, and there's less crime as well.
It is development, not poverty, that causes upheaval and terrorism.
What causes terrorism is disrespect, a lack of justice, and poverty.
Terrorism is partly linked to people who have no jobs in Pakistan.
