I live in Paraguay, electricity is 5c / kWh, it would cost 15 cents to desalinate 1000 liters of water. That is absurdly cheap even in Paraguay.
Malawian's seem to be able to afford corruption, I'm sure if they took the corruption money and put it towards desal they could afford it.
This article sounds pretty dumb, there's no point in desalinating every drop of water when the earth already does it for us, and especially not for farming.
If people want to live in an area that is a desert then they need to pay for desal. Most people don't live in those areas because you can't farm there without building greenhouses / aquaculture.
