I have instructed the Government to accelerate the creation of conditions necessary for our country's industrialization.
Such pre-requisites are: - availability of adequate and permanent energy supply; - modernization of our agriculture and processing of its production; - exploitation and processing of mineral resources; - constant improvement of the business climate to attract more investors;
- mobilization of the required financing; and
- development of communication and telecommunication infrastructure.
Concerning the last domain, we must rapidly bridge the digital economy development gap. This is a genuine growth driver as well as a niche for new jobs for our youth. We should make the most of it.
In its organization, the Government will give this sector all the attention it deserves.
