Africa-Press – Botswana. <\/strong><\/span>Botswana attaches great importance to excellent relations that subsist between countries, Minister for State President, Mr Kabo Morwaeng, has said.<\/b><\/p>\n

Welcoming Namibia\u2019s Minister of Information and Communication Technology, Dr Peya Mushelenga, in Gaborone yesterday(August 7), Mr Morwaeng said Botswana and Namibia enjoyed strong bonds of friendship, solidarity and fruitful cooperation, which predated establishment of their diplomatic relations in 1990.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese are borne out of their close historical, political, economic, social and cultural ties as well as their commitment to common values of democracy and good governance, which dates back to Namibia liberation struggle days,\u201d Mr Morwaeng told the Nambian delegation that is on a benchmarking mission.<\/p>\n

The bilateral relations, Minister Morwaeng added, were further nurtured by recent interactions by presidents of both countries.<\/p>\n

He said it was only natural, therefore, that the two countries should meet at ministerial level to ponder on how best to serve their respective populace.<\/p>\n

Mr Morwaeng said it was important for the two countries to meet regularly and share notes on how best to improve service delivery .<\/p>\n

Dr Mushelenga, who paid a courtesy call on Minister Morwaeng, said Namibia and Botswana shared similarities in many aspects, therefore it was be-fitting for Namibia to benchmark on how best to improve the livelihoods of its citizenry.<\/p>\n

He said by virtue of being a member of the then frontline states, Botswana played an important role in Namibia\u2019s attainment of independence.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is important to note that the first president to undertake a state visit to Namibia following the country\u2019s independence was Botswana\u2019s former president, Sir Ketumile Masire, a visit which cultivated the current bilateral relations between the two countries,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

As fellow members of SADC region, Dr Mushelenga said Namibia appreciated the strong bilateral relations that it shared with Botswana saying such relations were deeply rooted in cultural similarities between the two nations.<\/p>\n

Dr Mushelenga said it was important for both ministries to share notes on how best to disseminate government information for the betterment of the people. <\/b><\/p>\n
