In the past, there has been numerous groups of people from the same homeland who have moved to different foreign lands all over the world. Kenyas citizens have moved to different countries worldwide in search of better jobs with better pay. Many are the citizens who have travelled far and wide every traveller moving for different reasons. The bottom line is every single one of them can really use some diaspora support services for Kenyans.

To mention but a few is searching for better jobs with a good salary, spirit of adventure and some travel out of their country for further education. While these Kenyans are out of their country, they bring back home a lot of goodies, which are used to boost their mother lands economical value. When they send cash back home we find that the countrys foreign currency rate increases and this boosts its economical value since the shilling gains value to the foreign currencies like the dollar.

Different sectors are revived when the foreign currency enter the Kenyan soil; to mention but a few we have, agriculture which is the backbone of Kenyas economy, real estate the current sector which have grown more than any other sector in the recent years and many other sectors. Revival of these sectors has a positive impact to the country since people gets jobs directly or indirectly through them. The citizens who have specialized into these fields easily get absorbed by the firms which engage into them.

Let us have a wider view of these sectors starting with the highly relied one which is agriculture. Kenyans who live abroad send money back to the country which they require it to be used in different ways like growing, processing raw materials into finished products, searching for better market and disbursing the high quality agricultural products which are sold to both regional and international markets. These triggers to employments of agricultural officers, farm workers who ensure they take care of the produce, people who supply agro chemicals and fertilizers and so on.

Real estate is another sector that has hit the headlines putting it at a high level; increase in population has made land expensive hence resolving to build houses which share the same compound which are later sold. Kenyan soil has been eyed by different investors even those from foreign countries; when the sector continue to grow people who have the know-how of benefit from it like architects, electricians and civil engineers; the income tax increases through this sector.

Kenyas economy improves greatly since many of these Kenyans send cash to their motherland through banks and companies like Western Union. The high growth rate of these money transfer channels record huge profits which are handled to the government accounts through tax. These cash is used to build better infrastructure, and several other uses.

Companies which provide legal advice and are not left out within aiding economic growth. They help citizens who live abroad in financial advice, better investment opportunities and advice them on the pros and cons of businesses they would like to venture in . Government also taxes these consortiums and cash used for economic growth.

In the long run, the economy grows at a high rate. This helps every stake holder who ventures into the field which investments are channeled in directly. Contrary to the views of critics who think that the country has a lot to lose than gain by sending these competent individuals in foreign countries, this strategies works for the betterment of these individuals and the country at large.
