The President of the Republic of Sierra Leone, Dr. Ernest Bai Koroma, has informed diplomats and other international representatives that though Government is still faced with challenges in transforming the country yet is dedicated to meeting them head-on.
The President made this reassurance during the formal launching of the presidential meeting of the forum of diplomatic and foreign relations at State House. “This forum is organized at a time of transformation: a transformation of our nation’s key development program from the Agenda For Change, to the Agenda for Prosperity; a transformation of our economy from a heavy reliance on aid to one with colossal foreign Direct Investment and amongst the fastest growing in the world; and the transformation of our governance system to one that is open, transparent, accountable and supportive of international peace, security and prosperity,” he said. The President said Government still face challenges in all these transformations, but are dedicated to meeting them head-on. “We call on all of you present here today to support us sustain the alliances we have with your countries for overcoming these challenges; we call on you to support us sustain the partnerships for international peace and security; and we ask that we support each other to strengthen the bonds for promoting inclusive economic growth, the bonds for improving capacities for economic diplomacy, for transformative relationships and for cooperation in areas ranging from the reform of the United Nations, to fight piracy in the gulf of Guinea, combating trafficking in persons, and building peace in South Sudan, the Central African Republic, Somalia, and Syria,” he implored.
