内容描述:2013肯尼亚大选即将来临,但是投资商对肯尼亚的经济状况不太看好,具体情况是什么样的,我们一起来看看~~
原文:A recent study shows that investors are concerned about conditions in Kenya. The nation is preparing for general elections in March 2013. But the Kenyan business community is showing less confidence in the health of the country's economy.
The Kenya Private Sector Alliance and the Synovate research group reported the findings. Synovate researchers talked to 145 business leaders between July and August. A measure of the leaders' confidence or trust, was down 53%. That compares to between 60 and 70% a year ago.
Patrick Obath is chairman of the Kenya Private Sector Alliance, or KEPSA. It represents more than 200 Kenya-based companies. Patrick Obath says investors' trust has fallen because of recent ethnic violence and political problems.
He also says he knows of some investors who are withdrawing their investments. He says two behaviors could lead to economic problems before the elections.
