President of the Republic of Tanzania, His Excellence, Dr. Jakaya Kikwete, said there are several investment opportunities in Tanzania which awaits eligible businessmen to invest.
President Kikwete was speaking recently with a team of Turkish journalists who were on a 5-day tour in Tanzania last week for the purpose of promoting the Tanzania destination in Turkey. The seven visiting journalists were from the mainstream media institutions and international agencies which are Today’s Zaman, Cihan International News Agency, Samanyolu TV, Kanal, Star and Ihlas International News Agency.
According to the President, varied investment opportunities are available in the mining; hospitality industries like hotels, tour companies, Airlines, Ports, manufacturing industries and many more.
Speaking at the same function the Turkish Ambassador based in Tanzania, His Excellency, Dr. Sander Gurbuz said that the plan to launch direct airline flights from Turkey to Tanzania is underway. “We expect to have the direct Airline flights into Tanzania in few months to come”. He confirmed.
Turkey is visited by more than 23 million tourists per year which will expose the Tanzania tourist products and services to a wider and reliable market. “The people of Turkey are good tourists and I would like to see them make Tanzania their preferable tourism destination.” Said, President Kikwete.
Speaking of relationship between the two countries the President said that after the Turkish President’ visited Tanzania the Embassy was established In Dar es Salaam. President Kikwete is expecting to visit Turkey in the near future, and as a matter of priority he will work towards solidifying the relationship by signing memorandums on different aspects like economic, technical, education, science and research cooperation.
In summary, the Turkish people who may wish to invest in Tanzania will benefit by having other surrounding markets for their products outside Tanzania because Tanzania has agreements with AGOA and is a member of the East African Community, comprising Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda and Burundi.

INTENSIVE EDUCATION WILL CURB THE WILDFIRE PROBLEMS IN THE NATIONAL PARKS
Tanzania National Parks has been urged to offer more environmental education to the societies living at the slopes of Mount Meru as a deliberate move to avoid wild fire which in the past month has destroyed more than 600 acres of such forests in the area.
Speaking after visiting the affected area recently, the Minister of State in the Vice President’s Office (Environment), Dr. Batilda Burian stressed that it is only through awareness raising among the residents of the surrounding area, this destruction to environment would stop and people would understand the importance of environmental conservation. She also insisted that all accused persons must be taken to court.
Earlier, the Acting Chief Park Warden of Arusha National Park, Ms Gladness Ng’umbi said that almost an area of 600 acres has been affected and the park has used 10 million Tshs in an effort to control fire. She said the fire could have been caused by honey gatherers who use old methods.

アルーシャ国立公園でカヌーサファリ開始
アルーシャ国立公園(ANAPA)の世界的に有名な湖で新しい観光 アトラクションであるカヌーサファリが始まりました。
タンザニア国立公園(TANAPA)の取締役であるGerald Bigurube 氏によれば、’小さな’モメラとして知られるモメラ湖群の一つで開始したカヌーサファリは観光客から極めて好評を得ているとのことです。
これは、最近公園に導入された二番目のアトラクションです。 次の1月に正式スタートするもう一つのアトラクションは、有名なングルドクレータ付近のウォーキングサファリです。
訪問客が自然界のすべてを観察し、同じ屋根の下で異なる動物を彼らの生息地で見られるようにするというアイデアです。
パック旅行業者や他の観光旅行投資家と連携して、タンザニア国立公園は、国の大きな魅力に価値を加える2つの新製品を現在プロモートしています。
"小さな"モメラのカヌーサファリは、アルーシャに拠点を置くGreen Footprints Adventure社によって運営されています。 開始からの短い期間で、既に176名の観光客が湖でのカヌーの冒険に参加しました。
カヌーサファリの訪問客は、普通のゲームサファリでは簡単には見られない、カバや鳥の生態をより間近で自然に観察できます。
1995年に7,000人であったアルーシャ国立公園の訪問客は、2002年から2003年の間に28,000人まで急上昇しました。 今年、すでに7月までに30,000人が公園を訪問して、数はさらに上昇しそうです。
キリマンジャロとメルの山間にあって、アルーシャ国立公園は、広範な生息地である火口湖が連なり、メル山の斬新な頂上に到る高地の山森から多くの水鳥を見られる、目立って美しい地域です。
森には豊かな鳥や他の動物が住み、古代スギの樹間からブッシュバックがちらっと見えたり、枝に登る白黒のコロブス猿を見ることもできます。
トネリコのマツカサやメル山の頂上に至る崖の表面の印象的な景観は、地域の地質学的な面白さを表しています。
山の頂上に登れば、堂々としたキリマンジャロ山やリフト・バレーの比類なく見事な景観で報いられることでしょう。
