"I'm looking for funds, but i'll tarmac the coastal link"

Among the projects that the Ministry of Tourism plans to launch the appeal and to improve the services of the Kenyan north coast, there is also a paved road that would unite Malindi to Watamu, via the Marine Park and Mayungu.
Stretch of road has been discussed for years and which affects not only the fastest connection between the two resorts, but also the development of the area and Mayungu Chembe Kibabache, better known as "Sardegna 2".
One of the most beautiful beach areas of the entire African coast of the Indian Ocean.
"That road will be paved, word of Najib Balala - said the Minister of Tourism during his meeting with the tourism entrepreneurs and operators in Malindi - I'm looking for the funds to build it in a short time. In six months we will meet here and hope to announce news about it. "
According Balala that stretch of road is very important to improve connections and to differentiate the tourist traffic from ordinary traffic of Malindi.
"Just as Mombasa is now the city of tuk tuk (there are 12,000, a little 'too much) and the traffic begins to be heavy at least 12 hours a day, Malindi is becoming the town of Boda Boda, that we must regulate. But we must nip in the bud the increased traffic at a tourist resort. There also will work with other proposals. "
