In a bid to boost economic growth, Ghana’s Foreign Minister Samuel OKUDZETO Ablakwa recently hosted a South Korean investment delegation from the Make Group. This move is part of the government’s efforts to vigorously pursue economic diplomacy and transform the country.
As President Mahama has emphasized, “Ghana is open for business once again.” This sentiment was reinforced by the minister’s engagement with the South Korean investors, exploring potential opportunities for collaboration and investment.
Ghana’s efforts to attract foreign investment have already yielded significant results. The country recently secured a $2 billion financial package from South Korea’s Economic Development Cooperation Fund (EDCF). This deal is expected to support key projects in infrastructure, agriculture, health, education, energy, roads, and transport over the next five years.
With Ghana’s economy showing signs of rebound, driven by prudent policies and robust growth, the government is keen to build on this momentum. The Foreign Minister’s engagement with South Korean investors marks an important step in this direction, as Ghana seeks to cement its position as an attractive investment destination.
