Africa-Press – Zambia. <\/strong><\/span>My niece, Gemanini was quick to respond to the comments. She quipped, \u201cThere\u2019re two parts in the Ambassador\u2019s statement. The first which I agree with is that Zambia has enough resources. The second, \u2018To realize its development agenda\u2019 is what I\u2019m at variance with. I would not combine the two parts. Abundant resources on their own mean nothing as we have witnessed for many years about Zambia and other African countries like DRC. They must be converted into wealth. Among others, two factors are responsible. One is human capital with enough quality to convert sleeping resources into wealth creation, poverty reduction, good health, abundant food for each Zambian family and a good smile on each face. There\u2019s an old story: Singapore had no natural resources like Zambia. But its quality human capital has created massive wealth that has almost eliminated poverty and integrated the country in global manufacturing and ICT and networks.\u201d<\/p>\n

What else would you tell the German Ambassador? \u201cIt is no accident that Singapore\u2019s manufacturing sector, accounting for about 25% of GDP is the dominant industry. The countries relies on exports of products such as electronics, chemicals, biomedical sciences, logistics and transport engineering. Singapore is also specialized in financial services whose industry has only known growing due to pro-business and political characteristics of the country. Experts say, \u2018Singapore\u2019s\u2019 financial services market place facilitates the transfer of knowledge, processes, technology and skills between global, regional and domestic markets. All this seems to have been based on planning from many years ago.\u201d I interrupted and asked her, \u201cWhat do you mean, based on planning?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSingapore\u2019s educational system provides for students to learn about things that they will end up doing in future when they grow up. I read a text from Government that explained the main characteristics of education. One was that all the school experiences \u2018help to cultivate in our students qualities such as creativity, collaboration, compassion \u2013 life skills that are essential in a rapidly changing world. Through nurturing the joy of learning and encouraging entrepreneurial dare, our students can develop the intrinsic motivation to explore and discover their interests as well as pursue their passions. We also want to inculcate in them values such as respect, responsibility, resilience, integrity, care and harmony, all of which are important for a cohesive, multi-racial and multi-cultural society.\u201d<\/p>\n

Then I asked, \u201cSo, one can argue that their school system teaches students skills like manufacturing, innovation and how to make products?\u201d \u201cAbsolutely. Singapore includes in their students\u2019 schooling system practical things like learning about industry and other entrepreneurial sectors. Children learn from their parents and take over business when they grow.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat about Zambia?\u201c I asked.<\/p>\n

\u201cMeanwhile, Zambia, our country with unbridled resources that we gasconade about keeps sliding back in development. Our school system is questionable. It doesn\u2019t focus on skills development and innovation for jobs. It is no wonder many would like it changed\u201c<\/p>\n

\u201cIs there anything else you would tell the Ambassador?\u201d I asked her.<\/p>\n

\u201cI would tell her that resources too need technology to transform them from raw to processed items for exports. Singapore is a technology country. It is that technology that has largely helped it to bring structural change and transformation leading to integration in the global economy.\u201d Then, I asked her, \u201cWhy does all this matter to the German Ambassador?\u201d<\/p>\n

She retorted, \u201cLet me begin by stating that Zambia has an Embassy in Germany aimed at, among other things, promoting trade and investment. But do you know that in 2020, according to Unctadstat data shown in Table 1 below, Zambia\u2019s total exports were only US$50million and imports only US$52 million while Germany\u2019s exports were only US$47 million and imports US$ 80 million? Different sources of statistics provide variations in trade numbers but they are not far from each other.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat do other sources say?\u201d I asked.<\/p>\n

\u201cWell, for example, OEC source says Zambia\u2019s exports were US$78.5 million while Germany\u2019s exports to US$60.9 million. Zambia Development Agency, then acting Manager for Investment Promotion, Samson Simwanda was quoted as saying in 2021 that goods worth over US$, 9,000 were in the last six years exported to Germany, signifying the need to enhance collaboration between Zambia and the EU. He observed the need to increase exports to Germany. During a German-Zambia Business Webinar, he called on German investors to explore the vast investment opportunities in Zambia.\u2019 But I don\u2019t know if Germans have since responded. What I heard from the Ambassador was, \u2018Germany is supporting government through implementing various projects in the fields of water and sanitation, good governance as well as food and nutrition.\u2019 I don\u2019t know if that is what Mr. Simwanda was asking Germany to invest in.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cBut what are we Zambians asking Germans to do to help us move towards economic structural change? Our Eastern Province Deputy Permanent Secretary thanked the Ambassador for her country\u2019s support to the province adding that issues of nutrition are critical to the province. He said, \u2018I\u2019m glad that you are tackling issues of nutrition.\u2019 Was he right?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHe was right but this is a short- or medium-term solution. He should be asking from an advanced country like Germany support that would provide multiplier effects to development. He or she should be asking for capacity building, technology transfer, capacity building for human skills development to enable us to handle our own problems like nutrition. Zambians wish to know what Zambia-German projects are available for enhancing human capital development and technology transfer to our country from Germany to enable us integrate in global manufacturing and networks. Of course much of this must come from Zambians themselves. But considering global inter-dependence, it is not wishful thinking that Germany can support us to learn manufacturing and production processes. That too is the only way Zambia\u2019s exports to Germany will improve both quantitatively and qualitatively.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThanks niece Germanini. I think your insights will be observed and studied fully by our new Government and provides them with ideas of what manufacturing projects they can ask Germany to help us with. Surely, the Ambassador is challenged to rethink Germany\u2019s development aid to Zambia, to include learning manufacturing processes. As usual, I will knock on your door again in future.\u201d<\/p>\n
