Project News

The 4th Joint Coordination Committee (JCC) Meeting was held on May 24, 2019. The project started in March 2016 and a little more than three years have passed since its start. During the meeting, the project team reported on major achievements for the third project year as well as the planned activities in the remaining project period.

One of the project objectives is to support the formulation and monitoring of "National Strategy for Investment and Export Promotion (PEPIC)". Agency for Promotion of Investment and Exports (APIEX) is mandated to play a role as a coordinating agency for PEPIC and 22 other Mozambique government agencies, which are responsible for attracting investment in specific sectors and regions, also attended the meeting. The latest draft of PEPIC was presented by APIEX and the representatives from the above-mentioned agencies actively discussed the draft revision.

Towards the end of the meeting, the participants of a study tour to Malaysia reported on the findings/insights obtained in Malaysia. The presentation highlighted efforts to set up "one-stop window" for investors and other good practices implemented by MIDA, a Malaysian investment promotion agency.
