@Partybox75@JeremyVineOn5 That’s a great move, foreign Aid stunts the growth of those developing countries. Sure there are other ways those countries can be helped without hindering their development.
I am delighted that outstanding @Simonhkelly has been given an #MBE! He was a joy to work with in #Angola - it was a no brainer to nominate him. Hardworking, dedicated, never knocked back whatever the challenges- in a country with such a brutal past but such a bright future.
@LPNorthover Thank you! I was lucky that my time in Angola coincided with yours as Trade Envoy. You made a massive difference, achieved a huge amount and were fantastic to work with. Many thanks also to friends at the mighty @ukinangola @JessicaHandFCDO and @slymanbunck
Green exports offer potential for #Angola to diversify its export structure away from dependence on oil. My @UNCTAD colleagues are in Angola this week exploring how honey, timber and other green products can support the country’s sustainable development.
