Dodoma City, Tanzania, 2019
With a population of 410 956 (2012 census) and located in central Tanzania, Dodoma city is the designated administrative capital of Tanzania. Hitherto the designation in October 1973, Dar es Salaam alias Haven of Peace was the capital. The designation has not, however, been legalized by an Act of Parliament.
In the first Master Plan for the city, prepared and completed in 1976, conception of the new capital city was based on the then pure socialist development model in Tanzania, locally known as ujamaa, that gave priority to rural areas and perceived cities and other urban areas as parasitic. As such, the first Master Plan presented a simple urban form for the city, consisting of a simple non-segregated traffic circulation system, and low/medium rise urban solids.
However, in 2013, it was reported in various quarters that a new revised Master Plan had been prepared by some South Korean and local experts, that may have proposed sophisticated urban form for the city, that reflects Tanzania's recent dramatic shift from ujamaa, hence recognition of cities as powerful engines for social and economic development. We haven't been able to get hold of the revised Master Plan!
So far, only the parliament (Bunge) and one ministry have moved permanently to Dodoma, from Dar es Salaam. Nevertheless, since coming to power in November 2015, President John Magufuli has vowed to move the whole government permanently to Dodoma by 2020. Ambitious and probably feasible declaration by the president, who is known locally as the Bulldozer, for his no nonsense approach to national socio-economic progress and development.
Notwithstanding, that may not be cheap in terms public expenditure. The government may have to part with tens of billions of dollars necessary for spatial transformation of Dodoma to standards similar or close to those of Dar es Salaam, central government staff are currently used to! Such transformation may also be vital, if foreign embassies and entrepreneurs currently based in Dar es Salaam are to willingly relocate to Dodoma.
To effect the above transformation, new roads and utility facilities and services, new modern housing, new modern office buildings including buildings for different ministries, world class schools and medical facilities, 4-5 star hotels, etc. will be needed. Even the spatial link between Dodoma city and Dar es Salaam as well as other major cities in Tanzania like Arusha, Mwanza, and Mbeya, may have to be upgraded to consist of let say high speed standard gauge railway lines, and motorways. If the government can carry out the improvements, then central government staff, foreign embassies, and entrepreneurs spoiled by the exotic luxurious Dar es Salaam, may move permanently and willingly to the new capital! We must agree that, the reason why they are not there now on first place, is the lack of such improvements!
As of the publishing date of this video (February 18, 2019), Dodoma city is still very far away from attaining the urban qualities characterizing Dar es Salaam. At the same time, the Bulldozer is still in Ikulu in the exotic Haven of Peace! Probably, a more realistic view could be maintaining Dar es Salaam as the administrative capital, i.e. seat of government, with Dodoma city as the seat of parliament.

Behind the Scenes in Kenya + 150 School ID photos
We recently left Nairobi, Kenya and drove to Kericho to visit Koheun's sister who works at a girls' boarding school. We went to see what the school is doing and make a video about it. The school is all about empowering the women of rural Kenya and bringing tribes together. We also ended up taking ID photos for 150 girls at the school. First time for me to take ID photos. I probably didn't do it right.

Stone Town, Tanzania, 2018
Stone Town, also known as Mji Mkongwe (Swahili for old town), is the old part of Zanzibar City, the main city of Zanzibar, in Tanzania. ... Stone Town is located on the western coast of Unguja, the main island of the Zanzibar Archipelago. Former capital of the Zanzibar Sultanate, and flourishing centre of the spice trade as well as the slave trade in the 19th century, it retained its importance as the main city of Zanzibar during the period of the British protectorate.[1] When Tanganyika and Zanzibar joined each other to form the United Republic of Tanzania, Zanzibar kept a semi-autonomous status, with Stone Town as its local government seat. Stone Town is a city of prominent historical and artistic importance in East Africa. Its architecture, mostly dating back to the 19th century, reflects the diverse influences underlying the Swahili culture, giving a unique mixture of Arab, Persian, Indian and European elements. For this reason, the town was designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2000. Wikipedia
