In this crucial period for the Congolese economy, the President of the National Assembly of the Democratic Republic of Congo, Vital Kamerhe, very positively highlighted the increase of more than 18% in credits allocated to the investment sector. This announcement comes after the presentation of the economy of the draft budget by the Prime Minister, highlighting a significant change in the governance of the country.
This spectacular increase in the investment budget for the year 2025, exceeding 48%, demonstrates a real desire for transformation and development in the DRC. Vital Kamerhe did not fail to emphasize the importance of the faithful execution of this budget, stressing the need for rigorous monitoring of its implementation within the Lower House of Parliament to ensure its full effectiveness.
National deputies also expressed their satisfaction with this massive allocation of resources in key sectors for economic growth. They encourage the Government to prioritize investments, social and economic recovery, rather than institutional spending.
The 2025 draft budget, as presented by the Prime Minister, provides for substantial investment expenditures, with an increase of 18.2% compared to the previous year, representing 48.4% of the General Budget. These investments mainly target social and growth-promoting sectors, in line with the guidelines of the Government’s Action Program.
A crucial point will be the financing of development projects in the agricultural sector, particularly agriculture, rural development, fisheries and livestock. This strategic orientation aims to diversify the economy and strengthen the foundations of sustainable growth for the DRC.
In a context where transparency and good financial governance are essential, it is essential that these commitments are translated into action. Regular monitoring and verification of budget execution will be key elements to ensure the effectiveness of investments and compliance with defined priorities.
In conclusion, the increase in appropriations allocated to investments in the DRC opens up new prospects for the country’s economic development. By supporting key sectors and promoting economic diversification, the Government is committed to sustainable and positive change for the entire Congolese population.
