BOTEC plans use of Kgalagadi sands for brick-making

"We have reached the assessment stage of the Kgalagadi bricks moulded from sand and we want to establish if they can be used just like any other stock bricks on the market.

The Kgalagadi sands account for 2.5 million square meters of the country's land and we should take advantage of this," he said in Gaborone this week. He stated that Botswana should take a leading role in research and development of solar energy and indigenous knowledge. He asserted that Batswana should be encouraged to cultivate interest in information and communication technology from early childhood.
