Editor,Rwanda at this point in time cannot afford to cut subsidies for fuel or chop civil servants’ salaries.Any form of austerity that will be envisaged shall seek cuts elsewhere: areas exist where austerity policies can apply for sure; fiscal policies may well be reviewed; indirect taxation could be enhanced here and there without impairing fundamental economy balance.Financial experts will advise government. Beefing up Rwandan industrial production in the area of cultural goods could be envisaged. Most seriously so in the film industry.Capitalizing on Rwandan choreographers would undoubtedly be a great hit. Remember Rwandan choreography is very highly prized globally. Rwanda came topmost on several occasions in international choreographic competitions. Allow Hillywood Rwanda to thrive and you will see economic wonders with no parallel. US film industry is topmost globally, India is second, Nigeria third: whey can’t Rwanda be fourth, or even do better?Deo Koya Ntarugera
