1:36 pm
are important to any sustainable to sure that the current government off of kind of spawn can have. so i figured that that privilege that i had incurred some sense of responsibility. i know you talked about this a little bit more in a, in a piece that you wrote for a british newspaper in which you relate some of your personal experience about the early moments when, when the taliban arrived in cobble. but you seemed, i mean, correct me if i'm wrong about this, but you seen a little and bill ambivalence about the situ current situation there. is there anything about what's happened over the last few days? what you've seen, that gives you hope for the future of your country. while i'm not bringing my head in the sand, i do realize that there are quite a lot of disturbing things. the end developments happening around us. however, i think accepting that this is our new reality and trying to challenge it and push
1:37 pm
it to be something more sustainable, more tolerable for the coming up on is our duty. the issue is whatever we've seen from the power button, good or bad, cannot really be generalized over their policies of the future because we're yet to see a government from them. we are yet to see administration from them where we are to see policies come from there. and so a lot of it has been wishy washy and we're hoping to hear more tangible stuff in the future. and we're hoping to be part of that conversation. so we can create the middle ground. yes, they have delayed their announcement of a new government. what. what are the consequences of that? do you think while that means that life is paralyzed, we have the banks shutter, do we have the atm out of josh? we have the airport situation is directly linked to not having an term or

1:39 pm
and there is the balance between the leverage off incentive that they have compared to sanctions that they might tuesday. and i would hope that that thing doesn't break apart, because yes, there will always be elements within the power button that will refuse to recognize the importance of international legitimacy and wouldn't care if on the fund becomes an isolated state. but the common up on people will suffer from that. we're really hoping that there can be some sort of discussion, negotiation and engagement with carla bon and an agreement on both sides can be reached. even if it's not foreign troops, maybe it's can be a 3rd country and non made to ally that does conduct the security of the airport for a few months. we don't have management for the airport deviation, authority heads have gone and left the country. so there is quite a lot of need for some administration right now, and i hope both conflicting parties can reach to an agreement for the sake of the common upon person that needs to be physically se,

1:41 pm
and that is to stop the famine today. about 5000000 people are just one step away from succumbing to famine and the diseases that go with it. 10000000 more are right behind them. famine isn't just a food problem, it's a symptom of a much deeper collapse. as you know, in many ways it is, all of yemen problems rolled into one that demands a comprehensive response or zombie as president elect hucker in the g. lemme has been sworn in and happened at a special ceremony in the capital lusaka, he'll be replacing outgoing lead to edgar langon after securing a margin of nearly $1000000.00 votes in this month's election, had she lima now faces. the daunting task of turning around zambia is struggling economy, hard on the tasa is life force there in hierarchy. so what's the latest step? well, he's just bein flowing in and the me at the stadium was you for lots of them be and

1:43 pm
advisory consult since the africa matters limited. she joins us now from london. thank you for being with us. so 1st off, what are the biggest challenges that the new president faces in ambia? well, i think thank you firstly for having me, but i think present history i'm, i really has his work cut out to him. he has 2 main very intellect. are the factors he takes office today? fastly as obviously as hiring mentions the economy. he's, he's trying to achieve the price rate in the next 5 years and diversify the economy away from an airline relying on couple of mining. he's targeted construction agriculture and manufacturing is some of the factors that he's looking to to achieve that grocery. secondly, and arguably more kind of short time power and he is negotiating a debt relief package with the math. he's also looking secure and up to $1300000000.00 credit line by the spring 2022. i'm at the meeting. so that's until
1:44 pm
april $20.00 and $2.00. that's not how baffled but ultimately the, the battle has been attempted in started. it would be the fast line to the nation since 2008, and he really needs to be able to sell it to a population that i'm not sure had the, the kind of conditions of the sloane full front of the mind when they're in the ballot box. most importantly, these included things like scrapping or cutting significantly, farming and fuel subsidies. something that would be really popular with the population after this victory related to this is also improving invest. the sentiment i've heard mentioned belinda administration has really batted the private sector with regards to zombie kelly in the copper mining factor where i'm mining regulation and taxes have been increased exponentially. really,
1:45 pm
particularly in 2019. and his dilemma needs to be able to improve the governance of the way, the embarrassing being governed with corruption and things like that in order to improve, invest unlocked up to potentially a 2000000000 of investments in the mining sector that companies are willing to make in order to expand their investments in my area. i also mentioned the the number of young people who, who voted in this election, almost a 3rd of them were age between 24 and 34. this is not the zambia that their parents grew up with. and this generation is more politically engaged if you like, more active on, on social media. they're going to want to see real change and they're gonna want to see it soon. so what does, what does he, lamer need to do to keep them on side? well i think he hasn't definitely walk out with regards to keeping the on site,
1:46 pm
i think ultimately trying to diversify the fact to bring in much needed on investment. and it's really important in order to to see job creation. although this is the, we're looking at probably $23.00 is about to really make a difference to, to people on the ground. i think really showing up the value of the question, the local currency, getting a kind of handle on such inflation. i mean that's the thing cost. so really hit household recently and under president monday, that balloon from 36 to 110 percent of g d p. and i really think that president his dilemma will really have to address issues that are really high in household pockets in order to keep the use on the side. i think reduction in repression as well. presidency, particularly in the past 3 years, was, was really characterized by repression and including surveillance on the university of zombie, a campus which is a very well respected invest in southern africa. these kind of things made him
