Driven Economic Growth Affirmation
Maimbolwa Mulikelela
THE just-ended Zambia Agriculture and Commercial Show in Lusaka was held at a time when Zambia's economic growth is premised on a revival of non-copper mining sectors led-on by agriculture which is seeing growth in maize and other crops.
Against a back-drop of unprecedented Gross National Income (GNI) which has resulted in Zambia graduating into the middle-income country? the show provided a platform for opportunities in the manufacture, transport and telecommunication, construction and tourism sectors.
In addition, the B+ rating and the top 10 improved investment environment in Africa ranking by the World Bank has put Zambia on a better position in terms of increased investment.
The show's theme 'Shaping Tomorrow's World' blends in well with the economic development and the unprecedented maize bumper harvest recorded.Times of Zambia
