Editor,

After listening to the National Budget reading, I was impressed by the fact that Rwanda’s economy is set to grow by 7 percent.

This only indicates that Rwanda is slowly progressing as an economy, thanks to the Economic Development and Poverty Reduction Strategy (EDPRS) that will see Rwanda achieve its Vision 2020 goals.

I would like to commend the team of the Minister of Finance and Economic Planning, Mr. John Rwangombwa for their diligent efforts to ensure that the economy is stable amidst the global financial crisis. Besides that, the Budget reading was well presented. Keep up the good work.
