¶ 01 Please allow me a little more time, Hon. Deputy Chairperson.

¶ 02 If an issue cannot be solved at district committee, only then do we take it to the ministry. From village to division to province, we are empowering entrepreneurs. I can say with confidence that we are both allocating substantial funds and creating the enabling environment for industries and entrepreneurship. Thus, achieving our national goal is within reach. Thank you.
