THE Zimbabwe National Chamber of Commerce (ZNCC) has called on the government to ensure that there is policy consistency and also the creation of a conducive business environment.
ZNCC president Tinashe Manzungu making an address in Kwekwe recently said the country has the potential to flourish and attract investment if there are proper government policies in place.
He explained that in place of consistent policies the current revised indigenisation and economic empowerment programme being rolled out by the governing Zanu PF party will flourish if policies are consistent.
“The backbone of the economy is in the private sector. The policies that have been brought before us the revised indigenisation economic empowerment policy is what we require as people in the private sector,” he said.
Manzungu said the corporate world in the country is ready to roll.
“What it means is that once the environment has been set straight we are ready to swim, we are ready to move and we are ready to do business.”
He said Zimbabwe can be a competitive country if there are proper policies in place.
“For us Zimbabwe to be competitive we need proper policies. We need the government and the party to work-hand-in-glove.”
Manzungu warned that in the absence of consistent policies the country will not compete on the global market.
“If that is not going to happen we are going to see Zimbabwe in all the African states being the last country in the ease of doing business,” he said.
