    "content": "Faced with these challenges, the Jubilee Administration designed and implemented an economic transformation plan under five key pillars involving: 1. improving the business climate by maintaining micro economic stability, addressing security challenges and reducing the cost of doing business. 2. Closing the infrastructure gap. 3. Investing in key sectors such as manufacturing, agriculture and tourism. 4. Sharing prosperity by investing in pro-poor programmes in health, education and social welfare programmes. 5. Fully supporting devolution. The plan we chose in 2013 has worked and it is delivering positive results to our people. Let me mention a few of the key achievements under that plan. During the past five years, our economy has expanded by an average 5.6 per cent per year outperforming the average growth rate of the previous years of 2008-2012 and that of the global economy and of Sub-Saharan Africa. We are now relishing the benefits of an expanded economy as a more competitive and well rated, not only in the East Africa region, but also in the whole of Africa."
