2016 and Beyond- Moving Botswana Forward
Author : Ponatshego Kedikilwe
Five months from now, the bell will toll and Botswana will celebrate 50th of independence. As we trudge slowly towards this Golden Jubilee we dig deep into our archives and pick some of the famous quotes our leaders made in the past. In this edition, Botswana`s seventh Vice President, Ponatshego Kedikilwe, talks about Botswana`s rescilience and is equally enthralled by its citizen`s potential grow from small ventures to become giants in the business sector. I would like to note, however, that it is the hard times that have made Botswana what it is today, a vibrant, exciting, and dynamic country with an unlimited future, a future, we must all share in building.

If therefore there is anybody who would like to take the plunge particularly into small business I would urge them to do so. I attach considerable weight to the concept of small business development. It should not be taken lightly because it is from small ventures that tomorrow`s giants emerge. Expo-92 at the Village Health and Recreation Centre
