Hi Amit,

About safety - Kampala is safer than some of the cities in India.

I am here since last 15 years so take my word.

About your package - first it depends on your lifestyle, but considering what you are given i.e. accommodation and local allowance of 800k, I think it should be sufficient for your family. In last few months things are getting pretty expensive due to inflation and forex rate USHS-USD. Fuel is expensive together with all other imported items (70%).

If you have any particular question you can send me mail on pareshuganda@yahoo.com

bye

Paresh.
