He said the two countries chose the Tanzanian route due to its favorable ports and political stability.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCustomers&#8217; confidence is now restored. The country&#8217;s peacefulness and firm security has also quantified this trust of shipping the multibillion consignment through our ports,\u201d added Mr Lema.<\/p>\n<p>He said other ships are expected to dock later this month to ship the same minerals.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Lema called on Tanzanians to take advantage of such business opportunities emerging in the country&#8217;s transportation industry.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Lema highlighted the opportunities ranging from trucks shipping the copper to Dar es Salaam, storage of the consignment and other related activities like clearing and forwarding.<\/p>\n<p>He praised the government&#8217;s efforts of renovating the country&#8217;s ports and other improvements which have increased customers&#8217; confidence and will improve the economy.<\/p>\n<p>Apart from renovating the ports, the government has already purchased equipment worth 210bn\/- aiming to ensure that the country&#8217;s largest port has enough tools for loading and unloading cargoes with the aim of increasing operational efficiency at the Dar es Salaam port.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/tanzania\">Tanzania<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Tanzania.
