Botswana to benefit from BRICS

Anil Sooklal, International Relations and cooperation, Deputy Director General Asia and Middle East was speaking at a BRICS meeting held in Gaborone yesterday. He said BRICS is looking for ways in which they can foster business relations with Africa as the continent has raw materials and they have skills and labour force.

“Africa has the raw materials we need, so we are saying let us partner because we have labour force and we can transfer skills,” said Sooklal.
