- The East African country is also working to expand and modernize its energy sector which presents various opportunities for investment and partnership between Chinese and Ugandan companies.
The Ugandan government has advised its local companies to make more partnerships with their Chinese counterparts for promotion of technology and bilateral cooperation.
Through such partnerships, government believes that thousands of “unemployed youths will benefit from technological skills that will in turn aid job creation.”
