Statement of Economic Strategy 2000 - 2001

Abstract

Since the first Statement of Economic Strategy the government has continued to view the private sector as the engine for development and growth. This SDS again places great emphasis on the importance of developing the private sector. The ultimate goal for stimulating private sector investment is to create employment opportunities in addition to providing goods and services and generating a solid source of government revenue. Promoting private sector investment therefore is a key prerequisite for achieving the national vision of a better quality of life.
