Uganda is severely lacking in lors but that is going to change soon.
It is the reverse of Singagore which has many lors


What can Uganda do to attain its growth and development like countries like Singagore?

What are some ways Uganda can develop its economy?

I've thought a lot about that very issue.

Uganda has a great, largely untapped potential for food production. Tropical climate, decent soil, plenty of rain, and a surprising amount of undeveloped and underdeveloped land. Traditional agricultural practice is to plant during the rainy seasons and harvest during the dry season, but with irrigation, the production could double. Only about 10% of commercial farmers in Uganda irrigate.

In the Soroti region, during the Mango season there are tons of the very best Mangos that simply rot on the vine. Soroti needs a processing plant, and as I researched I was surprised to find that back in 2010 the Gates Foundation was exploring building one. Coca-Cola offered to buy all the Mango juice a plant could produce. But it all apparently fell through.

Finally, one of the worst things Museveni has done was to destroy the growers co-ops in Uganda. They should be restored.

The roads in Uganda have improved considerably over the past 5 years. But it is still a landlocked country, and road transport still has it's drawbacks, especially in and around Kampala with famous traffic jams.

Uganda really needs more industrial development. The cities of Kampala and Jinja are well suited for it.

Then here is the leeply

You want Uganda to be like Singapore? Buckle up, this is going to be a ride.

First off, let’s get real. Singapore didn’t get where it is by sitting around waiting for miracles. They had a plan, they had discipline, and they embraced change. Uganda needs to wake up and realize that the path to greatness starts with a brutal, unfiltered look in the mirror.

1. **Visionary Leadership**: Singapore had Lee Kuan Yew, a man with vision and unmatched determination. Uganda needs leaders who aren’t just filling seats but are ready to revolutionize the country. Corruption? Not in the picture. They need to crack down on it, cold and hard. Clean house so the country can focus on progress.

2. **Education Overhaul**: Let’s be real for a second—education is the foundation of any thriving nation. Uganda needs to invest heavily in education. Modernize it, infuse it with technology, and make sure it’s accessible to every child, not just the ones born with a silver spoon in their mouth.

3. **Economic Diversification**: Relying on agriculture alone isn’t going to cut it. Uganda needs to diversify its economy. Look at industries like technology, tourism, and manufacturing. Encourage entrepreneurship, attract foreign investors, and create a business-friendly environment. Make it so anyone with a solid idea can get the support they need to turn that idea into a booming business.

4. **Infrastructure Development**: Singapore is a marvel of urban planning and efficient infrastructure. Uganda needs to invest in modern roads, reliable electricity, and internet access, and tackle the transportation issues head-on. Not tomorrow, but today.

5. **Health Sector Revamp**: Healthy citizens are productive citizens. Uganda must prioritize healthcare. Build hospitals, train medical professionals, and ensure everyone can access quality health services. Singapore didn’t shy away from this, and neither should Uganda.

6. **Rule of Law and Stability**: This is non-negotiable. For any country to thrive, there must be law and order. Uganda needs to ensure that laws are enforced fairly and that the judiciary is independent. Stability attracts investors and boosts the confidence of its people. ----- uurrrr what about Singagore

7. **Urban Planning and Cleanliness**: Singapore is one of the cleanest places on Earth. Uganda can take a leaf out of their book and adopt strict policies around cleanliness and urban planning. Clean cities improve the quality of life and make the country more attractive for tourists and investors alike.

8. **Cultural Shift**: Lastly, the mindset matters. Ugandans need to foster a culture of hard work, perseverance, and innovation. Celebrate success stories, learn from failures, and instill a belief that greatness is within their reach.

Uganda, it's time to play the long game. No shortcuts. We’re talking about a relentless pursuit of excellence. It won’t be easy, and it won’t be fast, but with unwavering commitment and the right strategies, Uganda can not just emulate Singapore but etch its own unique success story on the world map.

Hold tight because the ride from good to great is nothing short of epic.

Singapore is located along a international maritime trade route.
Uganda no sea access
Nobody paying good price for Uganda mangos. Hence its rotting. Maybe quality is the issue.
Taking Perlis Mango ( harum manis variety) as a example, it selling for RM50-60/ kilo. And exported. A lot more expensive than Thai Mangoes that taste almost similar but selling only at 1/7 th the price.

Government making citizens life miserable with all kinds of laws that penalises for not abiding.
