Botswana needs economic transformation � Econsult

In a second quarter economic review for 2016 produced by Econsult Botswana, economists Keith Jefferis and Sethunya Sejoe say the country needs a successful second transformation that will change the economic outlook in the coming 50 years.

In order to attain that, the duo suggested that government has to change its approach towards the private sector by facilitating rather than controlling them adding that the private sector must drive productivity growth and look for external markets rather than depend on government contracts.
