"The website for us is a big step forward. The Ministry has been making efforts, because it realized that it's important to have all the information relating to the Ministry and the particularly the Director General for Foreign Trade, to share is with stakeholders and the general public. The Ministry and the Directorate have been working very, very hard, have been doing a lot of work and making a lot of progress in areas of trade and so on, and the general public is no really aware of what we're doing. This website will be the platform for which we will be sharing information on a consistent basis."

"I think the process of consultation is very important for us in terms of determining what our direction is, and also so it will allow us to hear from stakeholders and the general public, they cast their views. It will allow us to share with the general public and stakeholders. Again the opportunities that exist. I think that is one of the primary areas that we would like to exploit further because we realize that there are lots of opportunities that potential entrepreneurs, producers, developers can take advantage of and that information is just not out there way it should be."

Anyone can access the website by going to www.dgft.gov.bz.
