The Central Province Investment Expo created a lot of impetus for Indians to invest in Zambia, Zambia’s High Commissioner to India Judith Kapijimpanga has said.
Mrs. Kapijimpanga said she recently took some prospective investors who held talks with Central Province Administration and have committed to invest in Zambia.
She said the Mission in India will market all the investment expos in order to boost trade and investment between Zambia and India.
Mrs. Kapijimpanga was speaking when Chisamba Member of Parliament Chushi Kasanda called on her at the Zambian Chancery in New Delhi.
And Ms. Kasanda praised the India-Zambia warm bilateral relations.
Ms. Kasanda said the Lusaka Decongestion project and the construction of the 650 Health Posts with support from India are among the major achievements in the brotherly relations between the two countries.
She said her constituency, just as other parts of the country, has also benefited from the 650 health posts being executed by Zambia working with India.
Ms. Kasanda said India – Zambia cooperation is also visible in the areas of health, tourism and trade.
This is contained in a statement issued to the media by First Secretary Press and Tourism at the Zambian Mission in New Delhi, India Banged Naviley.
How many of the health posts are up and running any one with the information
Zero out of 650. We are busy talking and doing lip service
Not even a single company has opened up after the expo. These are just mere pledges which investors keep on talking about because they don’t want to destroy the contact they have made in case there are genuine opportunities for investment in the future.
She’s prolific in her recommendations. Must be all those lovely gourmet poppadoms she’s enjoying. She’ll single handedly solve the foreign currency shortage for BOZ if all her investment negotiations pull off!
