He also called for the need to establish regional business centres, which would help to formalise all businesses in the country.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier on, Tanzania Investment Centre (TIC) Executive Director, Dr Maduhu Kazi said his office had coordinated a special seminar for business officers from across the country in order to have an extended exclusive army to prefect business and investment in the country.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking at the same occasion, Permanent Secretary in the ministry, Prof Godius Kahyarara said his ministry would remain focused as President Samia Suluhu Hassan had already provided her direction on matters regarding to investment in the country.<\/p>\n<p>He also insisted on the government\u2019s plan to have industrial Parks in all the regions countrywide in efforts to attract business and investment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Tanzania.
