CALL MADE FOR MAJOR MANUFACTURING FOCUS

Executive Director of the Antigua and Barbuda Chamber of Commerce wants a greater emphasis on manufacturing.

Prime Minister Gaston Browne focused on this during his budget presentation on Thursday.
He pointed not only to the importance of manufacturing to the diversification of the economy but also to the economic well-being of several people in this country.
Prime Minister Browne says some plans shelved in 2020 will come on stream this year.
