President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah has invited Chinese investors to partner with Namibia in key sectors including mining, agriculture, renewable energy, logistics, and infrastructure, as the country seeks to transform its economy from raw material exports to value addition and industrialisation.

Speaking at the Namibia-China Business Forum in Guangzhou on Monday, Nandi-Ndaitwah said Namibia is open for trade and investment and ready to deepen its long-standing economic and political ties with China through practical partnerships.

The President chose Guangdong Province as the starting point for her State Visit, describing it as one of China’s most developed areas and a centre of innovation, manufacturing, trade, and technology.

She noted historical links between Guangdong and Namibia, which should be strengthened through trade and investment.
