چۆن دەتوانرێت پرۆسەی گواستنەوە بۆ تەنزانیە لە لایەن دیاسپورا سادە بکرێت؟

if given adequate time (at least 2 years) to acclimate to a brand new environment/culture/lifestyle/language without having to uproot every 3 months, i am certain that diaspora who desire (as i, as well as many others, do) to move permanently to tanzania to help build and make the country even better, we will be more successful at doing so. this, in turn, will boost the economy and everyone will win!

in the west, we’re used to a certain way of conducting business, personal and otherwise. we need to understand and respect local culture and customs. we would like a hub where we can reach out and access resources to help with the transition from the us to tz. a fee-based hub would be well worth the cost if it helped us with the variables you listed above: a) finding suitable accommodation b) starting a business c) adapting to the local environment d) learning swahili language e) dealing with immigration issues there are clusters of repeats in dar, and they’re very helpful. how much more powerful would a collective be for all transitioning diaspora?

if the cost of the residency and work permits is going to be extremely high (in the thousands), then the duration of the permits should be a minimum of 5 to 7 years.

i think the local media should say something here or there to the local people. such as, if you see some of us, say hi, be kind, don’t stare, and help us feel at home. please always remember we fled the only place we ever knew because we didn’t want to deal with that overt oppression. so we need to be embraced as you would anyone that comes to your home who had the courage to run from danger/oppression.

i believe tanzania should look towards other countries like ghana, which has truly opened the doors for us in many ways, such as permanent residency and dual citizenship, and see how that has benefited the country in many ways, especially economically.

if only local tanzanians would understand that we are family coming back home and that we came to help build the country, not to take.

research, plan, prepare, and maintain a renewed open mind.

we need others to be patient with us and understand that not everyone is here to try to take over. many of us came with little money and came here to create a better life and work together with the locals.

stop treating other nations as if their people are better than black people from america. admit your wrongs and fix the problems you have created. it will also help if tanzanians stop worshiping white people.

eliminate the corruption, ensure consistency with the rules, and provide clear and concise procedures and guidance on how they apply to the diaspora or potential investors.
