MR Haile Mariam Desalegn, the Ethiopian Prime Minister, has invited business interests in Seychelles to invest in Ethiopia, particularly in that country’s tourism industry given Seychelles’ wealth of know-how in that field.
He said setting up of a Joint Ministerial Commission will be the key driver of the cooperation between Seychelles and the landlocked country of the Horn of Africa
The Ethiopian premier further expressed this wish during a bilateral meeting with Seychelles President, Mr Danny Faure, who was in Ethiopia to attend the 28th Ordinary Summit of the Africa Union, his first since acceding to the presidency in October last year.
During the bilateral, which was also attended on the Seychelles side by Foreign Secretary Marie-Louise Potter and Ambassador Joseph Nourrice, the Ethiopian Prime minister agreed for a cooperation agreement to be signed between the two countries while the two heads of Government also spoke about the need to extend cooperation to areas like the fight against terrorism, reform of the African Union and climate change, with a view of working out common positions in international fora. The setting up of a Joint Ministerial Commission will be the key driver of the cooperation between Seychelles and the landlocked country of the Horn of Africa.
Speaking to the local media shortly after his meeting with the Prime Minister at State House, President Faure said that bilateral relations between the two countries will fly to greater heights.
Adding that Seychelles has good connectivity to Ethiopia through the latter’s national carrier which has five weekly flights between Victoria and Addis Ababa. The Ethiopian airline is also the main vector of trade between the two countries.

I and also my guys were found to be viewing the great thoughts found on your web site and so suddenly I got an awful feeling I never thanked the site owner for those tips. All of the young men came for that reason passionate to study them and already have unquestionably been enjoying them. Thanks for really being quite considerate and also for opting for these kinds of fabulous tips most people are really eager to understand about. My very own sincere regret for not saying thanks to you earlier.
You can certainly see your expertise within the paintings you write. The arena hopes for even more passionate writers like you who aren't afraid to mention how they believe. Always follow your heart.

There have been initiatives by both the public and private sectors in the tourism industry, but to date, a lack of commitment from both sectors and external circumstances have prevented further growth.
