This NAG Forum e-briefing is intended to highlight the main policies of the incoming Government related to the economy and the private sector based on extracts from the United Democratic Front Manifesto 2004 and the Inauguration Speech of His Excellency, Dr. Bingu Wa Mutharika, President of the Republic of Malawi.


This briefing contains verbatim extracts from The United Democratic Front Manifesto 2004, entitled 'Forging Ahead with Social and Economic Transformation' and 'The Road to Prosperity (A New Vision for Malawi)' which is the statement made at the swearing in ceremony by Dr. Bingu Wa Mutharika, President of the Republic of Malawi on Monday 24th May 2004.

You are strongly advised to read the original documents to get a fuller picture of the policies of the incoming Government, as this briefing note by necessity represents only a selection of policy statements made. This e-briefing is not an attempt to summarise the whole of these important documents rather to draw attention of the Private Sector to some of the key policy statement that are likely to impact on businesses. The structure of this e-briefing follows the relevant headings of the Road to Prosperity statement with additional extracts from the Manifesto included in these.

The extracts are referenced to the document and page number as follows: [RTP 16] meaning The Road to Prosperity page 16 and [M 42] meaning Manifesto page 42.
