Welcome Statement by Hon. Frank Museba Tayali, MP

Welcome, Mwaiseni, Tikurandilani, O Amogetswe, Karibu, Bem-Vindo, Boyei bolamu, Alo! Ki Manyer, Receber, Mauya, Welkom, WELCOME to Zambia, a jewel strategically located in the heart of Southern Africa, bordering eight countries and providing a great land linkage to the rest of the other countries surrounding our neighbours, and the rest of Africa. Zambia remains a strategic point of business, and we consider your coming to our great Country as a rare privilege - we are humbled. For Zambia, hosting you is part of our hospitality and character in ensuring that our visitors feel at home, and we hope that you can stay here longer, to enjoy the vast tourism exploits that the country offers. Coming to the Land-Linked Conference 2022, I would like to urge all the delegates to explore and consider this event as a gateway to many regional business opportunities that will be generated from the partnerships that will be created. Africa remains eager to do business with Africa, and what a great opportunity this event presents. I would also like to thank all participating countries for their Governments’ support to attend this Conference. I do know that, under our New Dawn Government, one of our priorities is to foster regional growth through robust infrastructure and efficient logistics. Take time to visit the Mighty Mosi-Oa-Tunya Falls, one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World. Zambia is a very beautiful and friendly country, which also has an abundance of wildlife, and a raw, untamed wilderness! Zambia is a very beautiful and friendly country. Kindly also visit the Presidential burial site in Lusaka, which is the Second Most visited Heritage Site in Zambia. There, you will learn a bit about how each Presidential period has contributed to building this legendary Country. Let’s continue to connect beyond our borders.

“I do know that under our New Dawn Government, one of our priorities is to foster regional growth through robust infrastructure and efficient logistics”.
