President Dr Lazarus Chakwera has reiterated his Government commitment of turning the country into a self-reliant.
Speaking at Bingu International Convention Centre (BICC) in Lilongwe during the launch of Malawi Business Registration System (MBRS) and Land Information Management System (LIMS) Chakwera said Malawi’s aspirations of becoming a self-reliant and inclusively wealthy economy largely depend on a comprehensive user-friendly ecosystem that accords every citizen a chance to venture into profit-making endeavours and own land for residence and production.
The president said roday, is a historic day following the joint launch of two significant online systems within that ecosystem namely; Malawi Business Registration System (MBRS) and Land Information Management System (LIMS).
“Malawi Business Registration System will improve efficiency in registration of business entities and consolidation of data around profit-making ventures. It will also enhance the investment environment at a time we are building a vibrant private sector as the main engine of economic growth, ” he said
He said the Land Information Management System on the other hand has come about as a core component of the Agriculture Commercialisation (AGCOM) project being implemented in all parts of the country.
“Its prime benefit is the improvement of equitable land ownership and administration by all Malawians, ” he said.
The president expressed concerned during the function over continued compromise around government data systems as observed.
“I will not entertain any sort of laxity by duty bearers assigned to safeguard these systems, ” he said.
The president has since commended World Bank for the technical and financial assistance to make sure that Malawi adopts these two significant systems as part of the enabling tools of a prosperous Malawi.
