President John Mahama has extended an invitation to the Chinese investor community to collaborate with Ghana in establishing mutually beneficial economic opportunities, stating that the country is once again open for business.
Speaking at the Chinese Lantern Festival Celebration at the University of Ghana Sports Stadium on Sunday evening, he acknowledged the significant role Chinese businesses have played in Ghana’s economy and urged further collaboration for sustainable development.
“The Chinese community here has contributed significantly to our economy, particularly in areas such as construction, manufacturing, agriculture, mining, and trade,” President Mahama noted.
“Likewise, Ghanaian businesses continue to explore opportunities in China, strengthening the economic ties between our two nations.”
The Chinese Lantern Festival, a cultural event symbolizing unity and hope, provided the perfect backdrop for President Mahama’s message, highlighting the strong diplomatic and economic relations between Ghana and China.
Reiterating his commitment to revitalizing Ghana’s economic landscape, the former president assured investors of a conducive business environment that fosters growth and shared prosperity.
“As I said in my inaugural address, Ghana is open for business again, and I invite our comrades in the Chinese investor community to look at the opportunities Ghana has to offer. Let’s create a win-win situation for our two peoples,” he urged.
The call comes at a time when Ghana is seeking to attract foreign direct investment to boost economic recovery, create jobs, and improve infrastructure.
