Following revelations of massive and rampant corruption at the highest levels of government, the order of the day in Malawi has become issuing threats of death to those that are searching for the truth and attempts to murder those that are trying their best to inform the world about what is happening in the country. It is already evident that there has been suppression of truth, protection of system servants and attempts to eliminate anyone or everyone deemed, even by the slightest of hints, to be getting in the way of what seems to be a presidentially sanctioned corruption syndicate. It is against this distressing background, and only persuaded by a burning desire to respond to the need of calling the attention of the world to the rapidly disintegrating situation in Malawi, that I have prepared this report. It has not been done without risk, and indeed threats and even sabotage attempts on my family and myself. But my sense of duty and responsibility turned out to transcend in value the risks I have courted to do this work.
