World Notes
KENYA
Shape Up or Lose Out
</hdr><body>
<p> The pretense of noninterference in domestic affairs that
usually accompanies economic assistance to the Third World
slipped last week in Paris. An international consortium
reviewing aid to Kenya warned President Daniel arap Moi that it
would offer no new commitments until next May, and then only if
Moi pushes through economic and social reforms.
</p>
<p> Moi's mishandling of the economy and rampant corruption
particularly frazzled the patience of the donor nations. Nearly
two years ago, Foreign Minister Robert Ouko was murdered just
as he was apparently preparing to reveal corruption scandals
involving senior government figures. After the Paris meeting
convened, Nairobi announced the arrest of three officials,
including Nicholas Biwott, a Moi crony who had been named by
investigators as a suspect in the murder. Moi is now expected
to call multiparty elections for early 1992.
