#DidYouKnow

Afghanistan's economic growth is projected at 4.3% by @WorldBank

To put it into perspective:

#Afghanistan needs to grow at 25% for the next 10 years to reach GDP per capita size similar to that of Bangladesh.

Afghanistan is economically crippled.

[Buy From Afghanistan 🇦🇫 @BuyFromAfg]

Let's build #Afghanistan through trade not donations.

Donations don't build nations.

[BACCI 🇬🇧🇦🇫 @BA_CCI]

Free markets, inclusive government and an internationally recognised enterprising nation can get Afghanistan out of this death spiral.

Time to act is now. Poverty kills more than bombs.

[Afghanistan Enterprise Council 🇦🇫 @AEC_Afghanistan]

#DidYouKnow

Approximately 85 percent of people in #Afghanistan live on less than $1 dollar a day.

That makes Afghanistan the poorest nation in Asia.

Winter is coming!

People in #Afghanistan face a crippling economy and harsh cold weather.

Fire wood prices are skyhigh at 12,000 afghanis per kharwar, electricity unreliable and coal deadly.

#Afghanistan’s severe economic and environmental collapse:

Today, an alarming 70% of the population lives below the poverty line.

Economic paralysis, mass unemployment and the freezing of national assets.

Our Director General shares her reflections following this morning’s Business Council meeting, hosted at the headquarters of our newest Council member, BDO.

We were pleased to welcome Exchequer Secretary to the Treasury, @Dan4Barnet, who joined members to discuss the Government’s upcoming Budget and the future of business rates.

It was a valuable and timely discussion on how fiscal policy can best support growth, investment, and competitiveness for UK businesses.
