DesertVisaProgramme

In catalysing the attainment of this goal, the NIPDB is in the process of crafting a concept for a Namibian RBI framework called the DesertVisaProgramme,whichcoversvarious categoriesofinvestment,andproposescertain conditions for each category Amongst the various categories conceptualised under this framework, is one on RBI through real estate investments.The NIPDB is currently working closely with the Ministry of Home Affairs, Immigration, Safety and Security (MHAISS) to ensure that all aspects and potential gaps in the programme are well considered, and that the criteria for the approvals for real estate developments qualifying for RBI are well set out before submitting the same to Cabinet for approval This activity, which has an underlyingobjectiveofraisingN$50billionin investments during the HPPII period, was due for implementation during the second quarter ofthe2021/2022financialyear

ThePresident'sLinkEstate

At its inception in 2021, the NIPDB was familiarised with the President's Link Estate development in Walvis Bay The project promoters sought the assistance of the Board with provision of several investor services in line with our mandate to render investment facilitation services to potential investors. In accordance with the above-mentioned HPP II objective, the project promoters further requested an update and have been following up on the status of the Golden Visa program. Thetotalinvestmentvalueofthegolfestateis set to be over N$4 billion. It is also envisaged

that the project will create over 2 500 temporary jobs, 1 300 permanent jobs, and build over 700 low-costhousesforNamibians(inadditiontothe homesconstructedontheEstate).

One of the marketing angles for this project includes a RBI through real estate component. However, in the absence of an approved Golden Visaprogrammesandwhilethemodalitiesofthe type of residency offered through these programmesandtheconditionsattachedthereto, are still being worked through and pending approval by the relevant authorities, the NIPDB has advised the project promoters to attract investors based on the existing laws and regulationsasappliedbyMHAISS.

Conclusion

Namibia is faced with challenges of poverty, inequality, and unemployment. In order to effectively address these challenges, the Namibiangovernmenthascommittedtoaprivate sector led growth and has embraced investments as an important part of the solution to these challenges.Inthisregard,theNIPDBisworking collaborativelywithvariousOMAstoensurethat we attract investments that will bring Namibia closer to achieving our national priorities and economicdevelopmentobjectives,inaccordance withournationallawsandregulations.

In line with this perspective, the NIPDB is working with MHAISS to finalise the Golden VisaprogrammeenvisagedinHPPII.Wehopeto submit the framework for this programme to Cabinet as soon as it has been presented to and endorsed by the relevant Ministers (i.e. the Minister of MHAISS and the Minister in the OfficeofthePresident).”

Fat, Oils and Grease cause sewer blockages

The Walvis Bay Municipality appeals to residents not to misuse the sewerage systemandrefrainfromdischargingfatandforeignobjectsintothedrainsofthe town,afterlargeamountsoffatanddebriswereobservedinthemainpublicsewer linesalongHageGeingobAvenuenexttoChoppies.

Anotice by the municipality reads: “The mainculpritofsewerblockagesisfats,oil andgrease(knownasFOG)thatissimply poured down a kitchen sink or drain. In liquid form, fat, oil and grease do not appeartobeharmful,butwhenitcoolsin the sewer network it congeals and hardens. Over time it sticks to the inner lining of drainage pipes and restricts the waste water flow causing the pipes to block. Cleaning these blocked sewers is an expensive and time-consuming exercise.
