Zambian envoy urges Italians to invest

Mr Mutubila said the government needs more money for advertising. “The government is short of financial resources for this important activity,” he said.
He said it would be ideal to have a montage of Zambia’s attractions, sponsored by an Italian company operating in Zambia, on billboards on the streets and in airports, and football stadiums in Italy.
Mr Mutubila said this at a meeting with Italian investors operating in Lusaka. He said Italian investors should help Zambia develop through mutual interest, partnerships and technology transfers.
Speaking at the same event, the Zambia Development Agency acting director general Florence Mumba said the agency is open to discussions and interactions with Italian investors on any challenges faced.
