The ambassador of Angola to Hungary used
the “historic” occasion to emphasis on the Angolan president’s economic policy
which is meant to promote
‘the economic diversification in such a way that our development process
becomes less vulnerable and more sustainable’.
Ms Lizeth Satumbo Pena, who is the second Angolan
ambassador since her country opened its embassy in Hungary in 2003, stated that
Angola is counting on Hungary.
"As in the past, we are counting on Hungary to accompany
us in this process," she said in what she described as a short speech.
Pena
explained further that the strategic priority of Angolan government is
basically to diversify the economy and, to promote an ambitious social policy
by better redistributing the existing resources.
She also
used the moment to appreciate both the government and private organisations for
their efforts in ‘strengthening the relationships and the co-operation
with Africa in general and with Angola
in particular’.
Pena
specifically mention the Budapest Africa Forum saying, ‘the dialogues and the
high level exchanges between the decision makers are evident signs of an
excellent co-operation between our two countries’.
Also she
said that Angola is highly interested in placing ‘more pronounced cultural dimension
of our country’. She added that Angola
is a mosaic of peoples, whose ethnic diversity constitutes an endless wealth of
talents, often hardly known abroad.
