Every time President Duma Boko speaks, his strategic direction in terms of the agility and dynamism of the public service is clear. With urgent budget and economic challenges banging on his door, a short few years to accomplish them and the ever-louder demands of an impatient electorate, the President is a man on a mission.
The private sector is primed to not only help, but if allowed to, willing take the lead in transforming the economy in the medium to long term, as Business Botswana reiterated this week. Foreign investors, from whom Boko has hinted could be the source of $600 million in just a year, are equally comforted by the country’s stable institutions, A-grade credit ratings and massive potential.
