SUBJECT: IVLP Alumni Conduct Panel Discussion on Tanzanian Political 
Youth Leadership 
 
1.  Summary:  Over fifty young political leaders and members of the 
media community visited the U.S. Mission April 15 to participate in 
a panel discussion led by three young Tanzanian political leaders, 
who are also IVLP alumni.  The capacity crowd, hailing from youth 
wings of several political parties, civil society and media, 
listened to the alumni discuss their U.S. exchange experiences in 
2008 and 2009.  The program generated a lively question and answer 
session resulting in positive print and television coverage.  End 
 
Summary. 
 
2.  Three IVLP alumni, including: Zitto Kabwe, Member of Parliament, 
Kigoma North from opposition CHADEMA party, who attended the 
"Leadership Development for Young Political Leaders" IVLP from April 
24-May 15, 2008; Ayoub Bakari, Commissioner of Zanzibar Electoral 
Commission representing the Civic United Front (CUF) Party who 
participated in "I-Vote: International Visitors Observing the 
Election" IVLP from October 25-November 8; and Beno Malisa, Vice 
Chairman of Youth Wing of the Ruling Chama Cha Mapinduzi (CCM) 
Party, who attended the "Youth Leadership and Civic Participation" 
IVLP from March 19-April 9, participated in a well-attended 
roundtable conducted at the U.S. Mission April 15. 
 
3.  The Public Affairs Officer welcomed the large audience with a 
short history of the International Visitor Leadership Program, its 
impact, and information about other PAS exchange programs.  Zitto 
Kabwe, one of Tanzania's most outspoken and popular Member of 
Parliament (from the opposition), shared his experience in the U.S., 
which occurred during the height of the Democratic primaries.  Kabwe 
was especially impressed with the role played by policy 
organizations and think tanks in the U.S., which he saw focus both 
voters and politicians on issues, and involve academicians and 
businesspeople into politics.  He remarked that Tanzanians must 
follow suit to "support principles, and not individuals." 
 
4.  Ayoub Bakari, opposition CUF party member of the Zanzibar 
Electoral Commission (ZEC), then spoke at length of what he saw and 
learned in the U.S. during the November election, focusing on U.S. 
electoral processes, and the results' impact on U.S. foreign policy. 
 He gave a brief but accurate synopsis of the U.S. electoral 
process, stressing that despite different electoral laws in every 
state and county, "it works!"  Bakari spoke with awe about the 
grassroots power of individuals in the U.S., and was amazed that the 
U.S. President "cannot do anything without the support of Congress." 
 Bakari remarked how Americans made efforts to know their country 
and their rights.  He was proud that he had a chance to see the 
historical U.S. presidential elections, and he kept the audience in 
rapt attention with his remarks.  Based on what he learned, Bakari 
suggested the Tanzanian government could be more effective if 
Ministers were not also Members of Parliament.  Understanding this 
difference for the first time in the U.S., he is now a proponent of 
separating legislative and executive powers in Tanzania, as a way to 
provide additional power to Members of Parliament and create a more 
accountable government.  Bakari remarked that the current system in 
Tanzania, with the President appointing Ministers from amongst MPs, 
brings about conflicts of interest. 
 
5.  Beno Malisa, just days following his return from the IVLP, 
lauded the fact that youth participation in U.S. politics may start 
as early as 13, while in Tanzania youth become involved in politics 
much later.  He was impressed by Americans' patriotism and national 
pride, and praised youth extracurricular activities and compulsory 
community service in the U.S.  He said outreach programs and sports 
privileges being given to those who perform well in schools was a 
strong shift from what he expected to find.  He called for more 
national service opportunities for Tanzanians, but took the chance 
to offer them to those members of the ruling party's youth wing. 
 
6.  The audience posed a number of questions on how to shape 
Tanzanian youth into responsible citizens.  Panelists repeated that 
youth should become involved in politics in early age, and they 
should unite in service despite whatever their political beliefs. 
Youth organization leaders espoused youth supporting principals 
instead of blindly following individuals or parties. 
 
7.  The panel discussion was supported by the following IIP and 
other publications: 
--E-Journal: U.S. Presidential Transitions. 
--Democracy Is A Discussion: The Challenges and Promise of a New 
Democratic Era, a Handbook. 
--What is a Democracy, IIP 
--2009 Voice of America (VOA) calendars 
 
8.  Media coverage/results:  Excerpts from the discussion aired on 
the "Channel Ten" evening news, and appeared in the following 
English and Swahili newspapers: 
--This Day, circulation 10,000 
--The African (April 16 and 17), circulation 5,000 
--Mtanzania Daima (article with photo), circulation 18,000 
 
9.  Comment:  The panel-led discussion brought together three 
prominent youth leaders from separate political parties for a 
 
cordial and fruitful discussion in front of primarily consisting of 
political parties' youth wings and civil society leaders.  The fact 
that we have sent these particular up and coming Tanzanian leaders 
on the IVLP is a testament to the inter-agency panel's collaborative 
efforts in selecting Tanzania's future leadership to experience this 
type of cultural exchange with the United States.  The audience was 
grateful to Mission personnel for the opportunity to discuss the 
challenges Tanzanian youth encounter and resolving to seek out 
solutions to address them.  We will continue to use the example of 
the U.S. 2008 elections as a springboard for discussion to reach out 
to Tanzanian youth as this country prepares for its own national 
elections in 2010.  End comment.
