President Dr. Mokgweetsi Masisi and President Dr. Emmerson Mnangagwa are slated to participate in the upcoming 4th session of the Botswana/Zimbabwe Bi-National Commission, scheduled to take place in Maun next week.
The picturesque tourism town is set to host the commission from Monday through Friday, providing an opportunity for the two neighboring countries to not only fortify existing relations but also explore potential areas for collaboration.
Since its inaugural session in 2018, the two nations have established agreements and memoranda of understanding covering various domains such as education, agriculture, defence and security, energy, environment, and health.
North West District Commissioner, Mr. Thabang Waloka, confirmed the preparations for the meeting are on track. Maun, having previously hosted the event in 2020, is gearing up for the occasion. Mr. Waloka highlighted the launch of a comprehensive clean-up campaign, mobilizing the community to enhance the appeal of Maun.
Emphasizing the desire to create a memorable experience for visitors, businesses, and the local community, Mr. Waloka mentioned the involvement of all stakeholders. He encouraged hospitality facilities to provide excellent service to visitors and outlined the local organizing committee's efforts to identify points of interest around Maun for the visiting delegates.
Additionally, Mr. Waloka mentioned that Maun residents would showcase their rich and diverse cultures and traditions through art and craft exhibitions during the commission meetings. The upcoming session not only signifies a diplomatic engagement but also an opportunity to showcase the beauty and cultural richness of Maun to the distinguished guests.
