    "content": "On the issue of subsidies, countries literally subsidise their industries whether in the agriculture or manufacturing sectors. In other words, they look for markets in other countries for their products. We have to protect ourselves from these unfair trade practices. We are targeting that by 2030 we shall be a middle-income country. There is only one way to become a middle- income economy and that is by improving our industries. There is great need to protect them. Today, in our country, most people who are in business are middlemen. There is nobody who encourages production because we have allowed our country to become a dumping ground and a market for subsidised goods."
