Tanzania Development Vision 2025 To Focus On Industrialization And Natural Gas

President Jakaya Kikwete, who spoke during the recent USAID Frontiers in Development Conference, indicated that the government will focus on developing an industrial economy with a concentration on the growth of the Tanzania industrial sector and natural gas in order to meet the goals outlined in the second five year plan of the Development Vision 2025 (2016/17-2020/21) and further promote socio and economic development in the country.

President Kikwete explained during the recent USAID conference that the second five year plan will focus on transforming the country into a competitive semi-industrialized economy with an objective of creating new opportunities for job growth.

 “Tanzania will then be a country characterized by high quality livelihoods,” he said, “and a competitive semi-industrialized economy capable of producing growth and shared benefits.”
