In his keynote address, the President of the AGI, James Asare-Adjei called on government to as a matter of urgency reconsider the Trade Liberalization policies and also address the problem of multiplicity of taxes that affect members of the AGI.

IMG-20161106-WA0007

He argued that the nature of the policy is gradually turning Ghana into a heavily import dependent economy, a situation he says is very worrying to local industries.

IMG-20161106-WA0000

He also pointed out, “it is obvious that local industries are experiencing numerous challenges, to mention a few, access and cost of credit, high and unbearable electricity tariffs to industry, stiff competition to imported product”.

IMG-20161106-WA0008

He added, “we have increasingly become an import dependent economy
I believe we must reconsider our trade liberalization policies which seems to give unlimited access to all kinds of imports into our markets. The challenges of globalization emanating from the keen competition from imported goods keep on eroding the competitiveness of local industries”.

IMG-20161106-WA0009
