The fact is that no country's economy can maintain high-speed growth indefinitely, and East Africa is no exception. Therefore, during the Five-Five Plan, if the East African Government can basically achieve the goals they initially set, sometimes this is enough for a government.
As for the final presentation of the Five-Five Plan, besides looking at the government's actions, one must also consider the development of internal and external situations. For a country, the government is undoubtedly the primary responsible party, but this does not mean it truly undertakes everything.
Of course, such statements obviously cannot be said outright. For a government, maintaining its positivity is equally important, and no country can avoid this point.
Therefore, Ernst will not say to the East African officials that you should accept reality—that the economy is good now, and there's no need for everyone to blame themselves. The government should also maintain positivity.
