Commerce, Trade and Industry Minister Bob Sichinga says government has stepped up efforts to attract international investors to the country.
And Mr. Sichinga is confident that the Patriotic Front (PF) will without any challenge bounce back to power in 2016 because of the many successes the party has recorded since assuming power in 2011.
Mr. Sichinga has told QFM News that the PF government is implementing policies aimed at creating and protecting a better environment for business investment.
He says it will be a mountain to climb for any political party to outdo the PF and ultimately wrestle power from the ruling party.
Mr. Sichinga states that the positives the PF has scored far outweigh the failures of the party whilst trying to bring the much anticipated transformation even in the midst of the meager resources.
The Commerce Minister has since pledged that the PF will continue working hard collectively to develop Zambia in all spheres of human endeavor.

@babankuru, spot on, boss! That is what am always asking the Hakaindeans, he had incessantly said ” Sata had failed this, that, those, they”. May those that know him ask him for me: What is his take on Barotse Agreement of 64? Subsidizing consumption? Distric creation? etc. Kabwatabwatafye like tutu & chief of grief ukwabula ukudwinka!

Mr Sichinga,but you’re panicking to campaign without Sata now.I wonder what will happen in 2016,where there’ll be 150+ Parliamentary seats,to campaign without Sata.

Only nominated MPs like Bob Sichinga will support PF;simply because he is eating with them.Besides that,Mr Sata bakulu banankwe(basebele).But Bob must told that people will not eat roads,hospitals and Schools.Zambia without more creation of manufacturing industries is doomed.People need permanent jobs not ukuzezela(ama Piece work).People need more money in their pockets.People also need the new constitution.Go round the shanties and hear what people are saying about the bad governance by PF.These are people who cannot afford two meals a day;and eat once if not none.

@Me, cibusa uli chikopo. How do you introduce more new industries with a deficit of power. PF is better than you at that. They’ve worked on it, no power shedding. And you revamp pineaple industry on pitholes? Bupuba, do roads first. PF Amicila. Revamp agriculture? Subsidize production NOT consumption! PF apasa! What about Barotse? Are you going to cut Zm? Bakamiponona abena Kaoma.
