The current Tanzanian president, since assuming power has made it her mission to enrich and empower the people of Tanzania.

This is evident by the fact that within the period of one year, she has managed to triple the foreign investment ventures in the country, particularly in the tourism, manufacturing, and transportation sectors.

From July to November 2022, the Tanzania Investment Center (TIC) registered 132 investment projects valued at US$3.16 billion.

When compared to investment projects registered within the same period in 2021, with 108 projects worth US$881 million, it becomes evident that the current Tanzanian administration is taking ingenious approaches to growing its economy.

This over 200 percent growth can be credited to Tanzanian president, Samia Suluhu Hassan’s pro-business initiatives and policies. Via business trips and meetings with global industry leaders she has managed to sway foreign investors of the numerous economic opportunities lying dormant in the eastern region of Africa.

Just in the last 2 months, she struck over a dozen deals with the Chinese, she oversaw a startup scheme in partnership with South Korea.
