The audience member went further to suggest that fishing rights also be allocated to SME's, to which Klazen replied, “there is only so many fish in the sea.” Klazen went on to elaborate on the logistical issues that could arise from such a move, highlighting credibility issues, that in the past

led to foreign buyers getting robbed. However, Klazen commended local retailers for theireffortstotakepart in the industry, through the trade of fish. After citing the various operatorsthatcanassist these smaller traders e.g.,NamibiaFishConsumption Trust and Hanganeni Fishing Association,hewenton

Rent-A-Drum signed an agreement withtheSwakopmundMunicipality in September 2015 Woensdregt said, “this led to a decrease in our operations and the need to restructure our workforce. Additionally, we've been dealing with low recycling commodity prices, increased diesel prices, and a lack of export markets for some recycling products.” According to Woensdregt, all these factors significantly impactedthecompany'srevenueand profitability, making cost-cutting measures necessary “It's important to mention that we managed to navigate the COVID-19 pandemic without resorting to workforce reduction measures So, this retrenchment decision wasn't taken lightly.” Although its contract with Swakopmund Municipality has expired, Rent-A-Drum Swakopmundwillcontinuetocollectrecyclables from their clients and businesses to sort and bale at their recyclingfacilityandwilltenderfor thehouseholdrecyclables.

As a result, the Ministry announced that petrol prices will remain unchanged, whilethepriceofDiesel 50ppm will decrease by 80 cents per litreandDiesel10ppm by60centsperlitre.

During the opening of the 5th Africa Youth in Tourism Innovation Summit and Challenge 2023, the Minister of Environment, Forestry and Tourism, Pohamba Shifeta urged allAfrican youth to embrace innovation, and digital disruptivechangeandharnesstheirpotentialtosucceedin thetourismsector.

Themed, “Developing Youth and innovative entrepreneurship solution for inclusive tourism recovery in Africa", the summit kicked off in Swakopmund on Wednesday this week. The Summit is a pan-African youthinitiativethatwasintroducedby the dynamic youth ofAfrica in 2019, inDurban,SouthAfrica.Itservesasa voice for the youth and emerging enterprises in tourism, travel, hospitality, aviation, and all related industries with the sole objective to connect, engage, learn, innovate, and grow themselves, their businesses, and the entire travel & tourism economyoftheAfricancountries. Moreover, it is established to nurture African youth, small enterprises, and introduce accelerator initiatives to pursue opportunities in the evergrowing travel & tourism ecosystem. YoungpeopleofAfrica,therefore,aim to become transformational industry change-makers and immediate future leaders of this important and profitable global travel and tourism sector

The Government of the Republic of Namibia is a member state of United Nations World Tourism Organisation (UNWTO). Namibia thus subscribes and supports the UNWTOAgenda of Africa that positions tourism at the centre stage for inclusive growth to optimise the sector's contribution to sustainable and inclusive developmentoftheAfricanContinentatlarge. You will agree with me that this African agenda for inclusive development can only be achieved with the inclusion of the youth and

womeninthetourismecosystem.

According to Shifeta, last year' 4th edition of the Africa Youth in Tourism Innovation Summit and Challenge which was hosted in Windhoek and for the first time in Namibia created greater awareness of the importance of the tourism economyanditsmultipliereffectson other industries and how the sector can positively and directly impact livelihoods; It provided a greater insighttohighschoolanduniversity graduates participating in different career paths in the tourism sector; and the summit exposed the Namibian youth to employment opportunities within the sector through networking, market access, and insights into Africa Tourism Supply Chain, as well as new and evolving digital solutions and innovativewaysofdoingbusiness,to Namibia and the youth of Africa.

Shifeta further said, “we hope and trust that the youth of Namibia and Africaatlargehasandwillcaptivate and optimise these lessons learned from last year's summit and seize opportunities in the tourism and digitalspace.”

Shifeta reminded the African youth that they are the true and reflective ambassadors of change in African society and tourism economies

“Being creative and innovative yields a valuable asset and businesses which is required to enhance economic and human capital development that will contribute to the Gross Domestic
