@pwatchug @AnitahAmong In equal measure @pwatchug should look into the Uganda businesses that are chocking with high commercial banks interest rates from which MPs are running to borrow from money lenders. @AnitahAmong should give special attention to access to affordable finance by businesses more.

@kasyate @Malikiham @UetclMD @uetcl @newsUMA @GCICUganda @newvisionwire @DailyMonitor @nbstv @MauriceMugisha @SolomonSerwanjj @AndrewMwenda @KCCAUG This level of vandalism is not at a layman's level, there has to be big time connivance within certain institutions. The rote is deep. We need investment into mindset change at all levels, we may be poor and broke but not destructive.

This is absurd. We urgently need a scrap management regulation/law that oversees all aspects of scrap, these pylons are collected by someone and sold to someone, there has to be traceability for all scrap and even to the export market

This week @uetcl lost 4 #Towers (Ugx 1bn) to vandalism. A tower that falls, turns into scrap, this is absolutely sad! Please share with me possible ideas to solve vandalism. @newsUMA @GCICUganda @newvisionwire @DailyMonitor @nbstv @MauriceMugisha @SolomonSerwanjj @AndrewMwenda

This is great news, but interventions like these on manufacturing without collaboration with manufacturing associations like @newsUMA and @USSIAssociation might end up misguided. An inter institutional committee with vast representative under MTIC or UDC would be a deal.

With the world grappling with the ever increasing prices of logistics and goods, now is the time to start thinking inward solutions. The iron and steel sector in Uganda is able to support a multitude of projects in construction, light and heavy industries in fabrication etcetera.

@rggoobi I mean, we may want as a country to simulate the opportunity cost of foregoing the taxes b4 production that stifle competitiveness and the benefits that accrue to product affordability, stimulate demand, employment and more revenue, (in light of already post COVID poverty level).

@kenethayebare86 @rggoobi @mofpedU @GCICUganda @GovUganda @MKarekye @munghinda I can't agree more, but that notwithstanding, is unprecedented to tax raw materials, especially when we operate under a common market without harmonized tax regimes, it just beats our competitiveness. And moreso when we have an extra mile in freight to cover being landlocked.
