THE Political Actors Dialogue (POLAD) sub-committee for international relations paid a courtesy call on officials at the United States Embassy to discuss ways to revamp the economy.<\/p>\n
Other matters discussed included property rights, governance issues, as well as boosting mechanisation production as part of broader re-engagement efforts.<\/p>\n
POLAD’s information communication and publicity spokesperson Mr Khalipani Phugeni told The Herald last week that the purpose of the visit was to re-engage with the West and POLAD had set up six sub committees which would steer progress and national development.<\/p>\n
“POLAD has elected the leadership of its six-sub committees, so the committee which you saw visit the US Embassy is the international relations and re-engagement committee,” he said.<\/p>\n
“The six committees include economy subcommittee, nation building, governance and legislative agenda which is currently gathered in<\/p>\n
Bulawayo looking at proposed constitutional amendments, monitoring implementation, learning and evaluation and information communication and publicity.<\/p>\n
“We are also strengthening ties with our sister countries, our neighbouring countries. We have at least managed to get solidarity from them with regards to these sanctions.”<\/p>\n
Mr Phugeni said they were going to hold an economic summit soon.<\/p>\n
“POLAD will also hold an economic summit this quarter and we will hear more views from the leaders of different sectors of the industry and the diplomatic partners,” he said.<\/p>\n
It is part of Polad’s 2020 agenda to engage with the Western community to end Zimbabwe’s two decades of isolation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
