I have been lagging behind in posting news and events on my blog these days. Time was the issue. Reading and studying the impact of the budget speech on Mauritius for the coming years took my concentration, and most of my spare time.
I personally feel that in a few years this speech and thinking behind it will show results, provided the present Government is able to work the plan. The map is drawn, we the nation has now to toil in the distance.
“SECURING THE TRANSITION: FROM TRADE PREFERENCES TO GLOBAL COMPETITION”is the title chosen by Minister Rama Sithanen. See link.
Mauritius is now at a turning point of its economic development. We have to take the right turn. Gone are the days of protectionist era, the post independance years,where the colonist powers granted us preferences for our Sugar, Textiles exports. WTO has dawned. The world economy is becoming the arena of free for all, battle of the most innovative brains, the fittest and the smartest….
Entrepreneurship is the key word I have retained. That is the reason, I am now stretching my wits to come up soon with some notes on Entrepreneurship.
