It is the weather guys. There is something about fair weather that inspires lazy, short term thinking, while cold, harsh weather encourages mental focus and a planning mentality. Even in US and Europe, when summer comes around, high IQ wazungus turn into lazy bonobos who just want to relax and shake their buttocks at parties.
On a serious note though, economists also observed that before the Middle East discovered oil, there was a direct correlation between warm temperature and economic development. And even though now the Middle East has broken that stereotype, people in Gulf States will tell you that it is mostly foreigners doing all the work there, while the local Emiratis engage in bonobo behavior.
There is no cold in Kenya that compares to winter temperatures. Kenyan temperature has annual lows of like 17 degrees during the day. That’s summer time in Northern Europe and Canada
Is that not obvious mkuu? Ama unataka kusema sijawai skia kitu kama winter?
the post never gave the temperature limits. Again if the level of cold determines productivity, then I expect more productivity at Limuru than at relatively hotter areas like Naivasha.
This has always been my view. The laziest people will be found in warm coastal regions and tropical Islands. To survive in freezing temperatures will force your medula oblangata to work full time. Sio kulala chini ya miti waiting for the fruit to fall into your open mouth
