He said that the National Development Vision 2050 has directed 70 percent of the GDP to come from the Private Sector, with investment being an important pillar to achieve that goal.

“In that, TISEZA has a very important role to play in ensuring that Tanzania becomes a haven for domestic and foreign investment. You as the Staff Council, have a great contribution to make TISEZA a success,” he said.
