AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Infrastructure: The government has allocated M390 million to extend the Thamathu road in Qacha’s Nek by eight kilometres. The project is expected to create 150–200 jobs and take 18 months. Regional ties: Lesotho and Eswatini lawmakers are urging easier movement between their countries and Botswana. Investment: Prime Minister Samuel Matekane met Qatar’s prime minister in Doha during the World Investment Forum to discuss stronger bilateral cooperation. Health: A China-backed project to eliminate three major infectious diseases was launched in Lesotho, with the health minister calling for joint action to improve public health. Economic outlook: The IMF forecasts growth of just 0.8% in 2027, below population growth, meaning output per person is expected to fall. Regional leadership: Matekane has been elected incoming chair of the SADC Organ on Politics, Defence and Security Cooperation.
