We must be frank and talk openly about the poor performance of these entities and must find solutions as a matter of urgency,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>According to Shiimi, poorly performing SOEs grapple with challenges like substantial losses, high wage bills exceeding 55 percent of revenue on average, as well as uncontrollable expenditure, noncompliance, poor performance, service delivery issues, internal conflicts, and unethical conduct.<\/p>\n<p>Shiimi said urgent interventions are therefore needed to reform SOEs\u2019 portfolio, adding that moving forward, the focus will include reviewing and validating the integrated business plans of SOEs, with an emphasis on ensuring that every commercial entity has an integrated business plan.<\/p>\n<p>He said SOEs will also be required to submit biannual reports on key performance indicators progress to the Ministry of Finance and Public Enterprises.<\/p>\n<p>In the last five years, the country has pursued crucial reforms, including the approval of a hybrid governance model, as well as implementing an online board recruitment system and revising the SOEs\u2019 business plans for relevance and sustainability, he said.<\/p>\n<p>Namibia owns 81 public enterprises with an employment count of around 25,000, according to the ministry.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/namibia\">Namibia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Namibia.
