MUKANGA SAYS NATIONAL AIRLINE TO BE LAUNCHED BEFORE END OF 2014


Minister of Transport, Work, Supply and Communications Yamfwa Mukanga says Government will soon announce the establishment of the much awaited national airline.
Mr. Mukanga says unlike in the past administration that only talked about re-introducing a national airline, the Patriotic Front government is serious about it and before the end of 2014 it will be done.
He said the only remaining final part to re-introduce the national line is the final decision by Cabinet which is studying the modalities currently.
NDUBI MVULA reports that Mr. Mukanga was speaking during a press briefing in Livingstone adding that he said the PF administration is eager to see the project gains ground.
He added that once Cabinet passes its final decision which can be any day before June, cooperating partners have already been sourced and acquiring of the planes will not be a problem.
Mr. Mukanga says currently Government is busy refurbishing the existing airports so that they meet international standards and compete favourably.
