In a major step to move Gambia forward, President Adama Barrow has taken a major step to woo foreign investors by ordering the re-opening of its Qatar embassy that was closed by former President Yahya Jammeh.
According to information available to DilyGlobewatch, the embassy would become operational within five months Foreign minister Ousainou Darboe told newsmen in the Gambian capital of Banjul.
Qatar, according to the Foreign Minister is held in high esteem by President Adama Barrow which informed his interest and desire to revive the bilateral relations between the two countries.
Speaking further, the Foreign Minister, Mr Darboe, said Qatar enjoys and occupies a pride of place not only in the gulf but through the Middle East which informed his country's resolve to strengthen bilateral relations.
He said, “Unfortunately, the previous regime closed the embassy of Gambia in Qatar and now we want to reopen it and I have informed Qatar’s Foreign Minister about it. Qatar has welcomed the move.”
To woo investor and make Gambia business friendly, the minister unfolded and announced plans for tax exemptions among others to Qatari investors and urged them to avail themselves of this package.
“Both countries have already a treaty to avoid double taxation, which is operational, therefore Qataris should invest in Gambia,” he said, noting the West African state has a lot of potential for agriculture.
“After the opening o the embassy, things will be on fast-track,” Mr Darboe said.
