By MacPherson Mukuka

President HAKAINDE HICHILEMA has bemoaned the low number of businesses in Economic Zones.

The President says huge sums of money were invested in the construction of the facilities and failure to have them occupied is detrimental to development.

Speaking at the First ever China- Zambia Trade and Investment Forum in Lusaka today, President HICHILEMA said there is need to woo investments into the Zones so that jobs can be created for the local people.

He has urged the Zambia Development Agency -ZDA- and Ministry of Commerce, Trade and Industry to ensure the Zones are occupied.
