Africa-Press – Zambia. <\/strong><\/span>Finance and National Planning Minister Dr SITUMBEKO MUSOKOTWANE MP has told visiting African Development Bank Executive Director GERALD BUSSIER that the Zambian economy is on the verge of sustained growth and emancipation due to the enabling policies that the Government has put in place to ensure macro-economic stability, quality investment inflows, job creation for the masses, and national prosperity.<\/p>\n

He expressed confidence of a very bright future for the country \u2013 anchored not only on investment in education and other social sector programmes, but also on citizen empowerment programmes such the Constituency Development Fund, Agriculture Development Initiatives, Women and Youth Development Initiatives, and SME development and sustainability initiatives under various public institutions.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are also pushing hard for increased productivity in agriculture and mining ventures,\u201d the Minister said, adding that, the Government is keen to ensure \u201ccorporate agriculture\u201d through the farm blocks is functional, and drives the supply of raw materials for the agro-value chain.<\/p>\n

\u201cSimilarly, we need to push mining production because of the beneficial downstream positive effects on local communities and supporting industries, which is why we have rationalized our tax regime to make our mining industry, regionally competitive,\u201d stated Dr MUSOKOTWANE.<\/p>\n

The Minister was speaking at his office in Lusaka when Mr. BUSSIER paid a courtesy call on him, this morning. Meanwhile, Mr. BUSSIER has reiterated AfDB\u2019s commitment to Zambia\u2019s development agenda through enhanced implementation of AfDB supported development programmes in the country.<\/p>\n
