This business-like approach is so much so engraved in the ideology of the nation’s current government that in December, it was announced that Tanzania would be partnering with China to build the final section of the 2,102 km SGR railway extending to the Democratic Republic of Congo.
Tanzania’s current administration has placed a huge emphasis on growing its economy via establishing trade relationships both within Africa and with global partners.
“This is a railway that is going to open up Tanzania and link it to the eastern side of DRC where there is a lot of cargo that needs to be transported on the ports on the Indian Ocean to the global market,” the president added.
