The Presidential Roundtable in Dar es Salaam gave the Central Corridor, linking Burundi, Rwanda, Uganda and the Democratic Republic of Congo to the Dar es Salaam port, the much-needed impetus as regional leaders renewed their commitment to an agreement to improve the infrastructure and facilitate access to the sea for land-locked countries.
The industry and investors’ forum was co-chaired by Tanzania’s President Jakaya Kikwete and Rwanda’s Paul Kagame, and discussed action East African Community member states must take to ease the movement of goods by improving the port, road and rail services.
