The president outlined the government’s plans to support individuals allocated land for tourism development through council initiatives.

“The government is working with the Ministry of Finance and BML to make financing more accessible. The finance minister informed me that the proposed interest rate will be 3% lower than the current rates. This process is nearing completion, and we hope this will accelerate the development of tourism on allocated lands,” the president said.
