Africa-Press<\/a> – Tanzania<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>THE country\u2019s key flagship projects have received ambitious budget allocations of 7.44tri\/- for 2021\/22 fiscal year, aimed at speeding up Tanzania\u2019s transformation into middle-income economy, it can be learnt.<\/p>\n

This budget, which is intended to realise an inclusive and competitive economy, will be spent on financing projects which build a vibrant society of competition both regionally and globally.<\/p>\n

Out of the allocated budget, 3.13tri\/- is for the implementation of the ongoing flagship schemes, which include strengthening the national airline- ATCL; Mchuchuma Coal and Liganga \u2013 iron projects.<\/p>\n

Tabling the budget estimates for the financial year 2021\/2022 in the Parliament yesterday in Dodoma, the Minister for Finance and Planning Dr Mwigulu Nchemba said the allocated development funds include 1.19tri\/- for the railway projects and construction of Standard Gauge Railway (SGR) as well as 2.08tri\/- for construction of roads, bridges and airports.<\/p>\n

Dr Nchemba described the JNHPP and SGR projects as not only as state of the Art schemes, but the \u2018mother\u2019 ones for every Tanzanian, whose failure to accomplish will be a curse to the nation.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey are projects that define the independence of our country, define the dignity of Tanzanians and built by Tanzanians themselves\u2026 the late Mwalimu Julius Nyerere carried the vision of these projects, the late President John Magufuli initiated these projects, and President Samia is going to complete them. I assure Tanzanians that we will not abandon such projects,\u201d he told the house.<\/p>\n

Going forward, the minister noted that the government would also focus on promoting innovation and transfer of technology, develop railway infrastructure and services, construct and rehabilitate roads, which link Tanzania with neighboring countries as well as decongesting urban areas, besides improving rural roads, bridges, water and air transport infrastructure.<\/p>\n
