He also extended appreciation to Taiwan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Embassy of Taiwan in Eswatini for their tireless work in facilitating the investment initiative.
Dlamini revealed that His Majesty King Mswati III had issued a directive instructing all relevant institutions to offer full support to the investors and to remove any bureaucratic barriers that could hinder progress. He said this directive demonstrated the Kingdom’s seriousness about fostering investor confidence and positioning Eswatini as a competitive destination for international business.
The Prime Minister emphasised that his government would remain proactive in resolving any issues that could delay or discourage investment, promising a transparent and efficient process for all stakeholders.
“We are committed to ensuring that investors encounter minimal obstacles and that their ventures contribute meaningfully to our economic transformation,” he said.
Dlamini concluded by highlighting that the planned industrial park would not only help the country achieve its national economic goals but also create meaningful employment opportunities for emaSwati. He said such projects would support the broader vision of diversifying Eswatini’s economy and strengthening its industrial base through innovation and international collaboration.
