The exchange, focusing in particular on economic investments, underlines the importance of fruitful collaboration for the development and prosperity of the Congolese populations.
The Belgian diplomat’s gesture of visiting a plantation of Congolese agricultural products in the province of Sud-Ubangi highlights the economic development opportunities offered by the valorization of local resources. The establishment of a special economic zone and the strengthening of the logistics corridor to Cameroon open up new perspectives for the export of Congolese products and the stimulation of employment and economic activity.

The emphasis on local production and job creation underlines the relevance of promoting a sustainable and inclusive economy, capable of meeting the needs of the Congolese population while promoting sustained economic growth. The recognition of the added value that investments in key sectors of the Congolese economy can bring demonstrates the desire to build an environment conducive to business and the country’s economic growth.
In conclusion, the meeting between President Tshisekedi and Belgian Ambassador Roxane de Bilderding underlines the importance of cooperation and collaboration between the DRC and Belgium to promote the economic and social development of Congo. By focusing on policies favorable to investment and local production, both parties are committed to sustainable and inclusive economic growth, serving the well-being and prosperity of the Congolese people.
