Luanda - The president of the MPLA, João Lourenço, highlighted today the work of the Angolan Executive in favor of the progress and socio-economic development of the country, despite the difficulties and problems still to be resolved.
At the opening of the 'National Meeting with the first secretaries of the Party's Action Committees', with the motto 'All for the Bases, All for the Communities', João Lourenço highlighted the social investments underway in the country, among other issues.
He mentioned the investment in the construction and rehabilitation of schools and other educational establishments, hospitals of different levels of care, water and energy projects, housing, road network, ports and airports.
He pointed out that the Government is also building oil refineries to increase the supply of refined products such as diesel and gasoline, large projects to combat drought in southern Angola that are already beginning to reverse the situation experienced until two years ago.
João Lourenço pointed out the improvement in the business environment that has increased the domestic production of essential goods and services, the support and importance that is being given to agriculture and fisheries, especially family farming, which has increased the supply of food produced in the country.
He explained that these initiatives are improving the living conditions of families in the countryside, with all these investments and public and private ventures generating more employment, especially for young people.
CAP
In his speech, aimed largely at the first secretaries of the Party Action Committees (CAP), he called on them to excel in dialogue, sincerity, openness and transparency, because sometimes a simple word can comfort a citizen in need.
He praised the first secretaries of the CAP for the work they do tirelessly, without worrying about the immediacy that the cameras and television would provide if they accompanied their activity.
The meeting was attended by 2,700 first secretaries from all over the country, representing the 60,000 active committees. VIC/DOJ
