As the umbrella body of the private sector in the region, we appreciate his role in ensuring cross-border trade continued despite the Covid-19 travel protocols that inhibited trade,\u201d said John Kalisa, chief executive of the East African Business Council.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe co-ordinated the Covid-19 response. The region was able to safeguard against the shortage of essential goods and services.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Under President Kenyatta\u2019s leadership, five EAC states \u2013 excluding South Sudan \u2013 have ratified the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA). \u201cEAC has attained a 90 percent tariff offer that is required to trade under the AfCFTA. That is a great achievement under his leadership,\u201d said Mr Kalisa.<\/p>\n<p>But it is the admission of the DRC into the bloc that won President Kenyatta most applause from the private sector and the secretariat.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe fast tracked the admission of the DRC into the EAC. This is very important for the region because DRC has the largest consumer market in the region today,\u201d said Mr Kalisa.<\/p>\n<p>DRC is endowed with exceptional natural resources, including minerals such as cobalt and copper, hydro-power potential, significant arable land, immense biodiversity, and the world\u2019s second-largest rainforest.<\/p>\n<p>The DRC applied to join the EAC in 2018 and formally joined the bloc on April 8, when President Felix Tshisekedi signed the deed of Accession to the Treaty establishing the EAC.<\/p>\n<p>Its admission offers a combined market-driven economy of 266 million people and a gross domestic product of $243 billion for the region.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe DRC, which has the potential to open the Indian Ocean to the Atlantic Trade Corridor and link the region to north Africa, central Africa and other continental sub-regions,\u201d said Dr Kevit Desai, the principal secretary at the Ministry of EAC and Regional Development.<\/p>\n<p>Despite this, the region has adopted a wait-and-see attitude in regards to the elusive peace in the eastern DRC. President Kenyatta recently chaired the DRC Conclave aimed at restoring peace.<\/p>\n<p>The DRC has accused some of its neighbours of being sympathetic to a section of rebels in the Eastern part of the country.<\/p>\n<p>During a meeting held last month in Nairobi, President Tshisekedi asked his EAC counterparts to assist in taming the rebels.<\/p>\n<p><b>NTBs<\/b><\/p>\n<p>The private sector and the East African Legislative Assembly (Eala) fault President Kenyatta for the slow resolution of non-tariff barriers in the bloc.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe expected that the Trade Remedies Committee would be in place to assist resolve trade disputes among members. That is yet to take place. The NTB Act has also been lacking for so long,\u201d said Mr Kalisa.<\/p>\n<p>Under the Customs Union Protocol, the Trade Remedies Committee is to handle matters dealing with rules of origin, ensure regulations on anti-dumping measures are adhered to and deal with safeguard measures.<\/p>\n<p>But the committee, which is also expected to look into subsidies and countervailing measures, is not yet in place 10 years since it was proposed for enactment.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe delay to ratify the amendment by partner states 10 years later was regrettable,\u201d said Hon Marie Claire Burukikiye of Eala.<\/p>\n<p>Critics also say that though President Kenyatta has resolved the historical border trade disputes between Kenya and Tanzania, which has seen trade volumes between the two countries increase, he has not been enthusiastic about the Rwanda-Burundi and Rwanda-Uganda rows.<\/p>\n<p>Also, a trade dispute with Uganda over sugar, milk and poultry products imports into Kenya has been simmering for more than three years now.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe trade war between Kenya and Uganda has affected Ugandan products to other regions,\u201d said Simon Kaheru, chairperson of EABC Uganda chapter.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIndustrial sugar has a large market within the East African region\u2026Uganda has a surplus but it cannot sell to Kenya, Rwanda or Tanzanian companies because of protectionism.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>President Uhuru has also been criticised for the manner he has handled the standard gauge railway inland terminal in Suswa, Kenya.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/uganda\">Uganda<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Uganda.
