It is up to the State to guarantee these conditions so that investment can happen,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Bacar added that the instruments under development should also contribute to the organization of tourist destinations, the definition of priority areas, and the enhancement of local potential, with a direct impact on job and income generation for communities.<\/p>\n<p>For his part, Laurent Corthay, the World Bank representative in Mozambique, said that a multi-sector approach is crucial.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe tourism sector is not just the responsibility of one ministry. It is highly multi-sectoral and requires participation from sectors as diverse as environment, transport, interior, security, police, and also at the local level,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ap-article-footer-note\">Find more news and analyses on <span class=\"ap-highlight-country\">Mozambique<\/span> on the <span class=\"ap-highlight-brand\">Africa Press<\/span> website<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Mozambique.
