#Tanzania is blessed to have an abundance of natural resources at our disposal, the question is how do we tap into them strategically and meaningfully?
As a #boardmember of New Forests Company, it is exciting to witness the meaningful contributions of our forestry and timber projects in East Africa: the provision of local jobs, adoption of sustainable practices and the demonstration that we can harmoniously use our environment for significant growth.
More recently, I have come to know about Helium One and I had the pleasure of meeting with Lorna Blaisse, company CEO and Graham Jacobs, Financial and Commercial Director, to discuss the future prospects of helium in #Tanzania. This unique noble gas represents future exploration opportunities in Tanzania. It is worth noting that the helium deposits in Tanzania are naturally occurring, in huge demand and declining supply, which is a competitive advantage for our country.
From trees to helium, the lessons are the same across the board: strong partnerships, international co-operation and a deep respect for our natural resources will only result in increased development and benefits.
