The Malawi Revenue Authority (MRA) recently honored Times Television and The Daily Times newspaper for their outstanding contribution to raising public awareness on taxation issues. The recognition was bestowed upon the two media outlets under The Times Group during MRA’s 25th Anniversary Celebrations held in Lilongwe. Mkhuweni wa Msonkho, or the importance of tax awareness, is a crucial aspect of Malawi’s economic growth, and the MRA’s efforts to promote ufahamu wa kodi, or tax awareness, are commendable.

According to MRA acting Head of Corporate Affairs, Wilma Chalulu, the media outlets were recognized for their commitment to relaying accurate information to the public. Chalulu noted that Times Television and The Daily Times newspaper "always take the initiative to contact MRA for details about any tax-related developments," demonstrating their dedication to kuwawuza kodi, or tax education. The media houses also readily provide their staff for MRA’s Media Trainings in Taxation as well as for participation in outreach activities, showcasing their willingness to kujifunza kuhusu kodi, or learn about taxes.

The Times Group Managing Director, Leonnard Chikadya, was presented with the honor, highlighting the importance of effective leadership in promoting tax awareness. This recognition serves as a testament to the value of collaboration between media and tax authorities in promoting malamulo ya kodi, or tax compliance. As Malawi’s business community continues to grow, it is essential for biashara za Malawi, or Malawian businesses, to stay informed about tax regulations and developments. By engaging with the MRA and participating in programu za kodi, or tax programs, local entrepreneurs can kuboresha uelewa wao wa kodi, or enhance their understanding of taxes, and contribute to the country’s economic growth.
