President Edgar Lungu has said that the twinning of Muchinga Province to Jiangxi province of China, must result in investments into Zambia.

President Lungu said that investors can put their money into farming blocks and help establish industrial economic zones across the county.

President Lungu further said that the twinning of various cities in Zambia and China is aimed at promoting industrialization.

President Lungu said this during the Zambia-Jiangxi Investment Promotion held in the Chinese City of Jiangxi.

President Lungu said the upgrading of infrastructure such as roads and airports is part of government’s move to facilitate trade and investment.

And China Chamber of International Commerce Chairperson Xu Guojian pledged to encourage more Chinese companies to invest in various sectors of the Zambian economy.

Mr. Guojian said Zambia is the best investment destination because of its stable political leadership as well as the peace and stability the country enjoys.

Earlier, Minister of Commerce, Trade and Industry Christopher Yaluma assured the investors that his ministry will provide the necessary help for them to open businesses in Zambia.

President Lungu later expected to witness the signing ceremony of the twinning of Muchinga and Jiangxi provinces.

Muchinga Province Minister Malozo Sichone will sign on behalf of the Zambian government.

    • Imwe so are we just going to sit back and watch the selling of our country? Remember these thieves will run away and it will us to suffer this foolishness.

    • This useless man will give away more large chunks of our country to the Chinese.

      It will not stop there either.

      My heart bleeds for my country.

      Surely God will intervene to save our country from these daemonic people.

    • Muchinga Province the future home of Chinese prisoners. I didn’t know that ba Zambia we are this stupid.
      We are letting someone recolonize us and we are just quiet.

    • Pf00ls busy mortgaging our once prosperous nation to tu ma chinese. Chinese investment do not benefit us in any way
      – Chinese have corrupted the PF00Lish president, ministers, judges, police commisioner etc.
      – Chinese don’t pay taxes
      – Chinese pay our locals slave wages
      – Chinese bring in thousands prisoners from china for free labour
      – Chinese get involved in illegal activities like mukula trees logging, ivory, lion bones & rhino horn trade, illegal copper trading
      – Chinese have abused the styupid law which allows foreigners to own land in Zambia. Now land is unaffordable by locals. 20m×30m plots are now going for K150,000 in outskirts of Lusaka.

    • Lazy bum illiterate hooligan bully tribal son of a polygamist tribal father who had no toilet training from his father breaking wind in public Hagain.

  2. How will the twin cities make Muchinga a better place? Lusaka and Los Angeles are sister cities. How does that make Lusaka thrive? Please show us. We are waiting.

  3. President Lungu said that investors can put their money into farming blocks and help establish industrial economic zones across the county.

    Are we still looking for farms and block making investors in 2016, do you agree with me that government has felled to mobilize citizen?

  4. More “love of home” Chinese shops dotted all over Lusaka will spring up in Muchinga Province. Buying and consuming Chinese products. Do we really intend to produce our own things at some point? Or it will be Chinese Chinese and Chinese?

  5. oH OH YES! give them the juice they really need. why is it that pf cadres always pretend that everything is hunky dory in their lives,but always asking for a coin?

    peace and out.
