Rwanda is now hailed as the bedrock of good

governance. Corruption is negligible. The crime rate is low.

On the economic front, over the last decade, the Government

has been firm in its economic stabilisation and recovery

programmes. Among other things, Government has abolished

export taxes, initiated tax regime reform, established an

investment code; initiated rehabilitation of the banking sector;

liberalised trade, currency and wage regimes; achieved full

current account convertibility, entrenched property rights in the

country's constitution; firmed up the independence of the Central

Bank and launched the necessary restructuring and privatisation

of public entities.

The result of all these initiatives has been a buoyant economy

with a GDP growth rate (at around 10%) described as one of the

best on the continent over the last three years. The July 2003 UN

Economic Report on Africa characterized Rwanda as one of the

top three "Lion Cubs" alongside Mozambique and Uganda, on

the basis of strong economic performance.

Everything is being done to consolidate and expand on these

economic gains. Experts believe this is possible because the

economy is still virgin. Across all sectors, investment

opportunities abound. In particular, investments are needed in

value addition activities tapping into the country's agricultural,

mining and tourism resources.

By leveraging its strategic location, as the centre of a consumer

market of nearly 50 million people, Rwanda is also working to

become the Dubai of Central Africa. To achieve this, a Free

Economic Processing Zone to house General Merchandise,

Light and Heavy industry economic activities is at an advanced

stage of implementation. We invite you to buy into this

proposition.
