Reviewing the power sector, the prime minister underlined its importance in propelling the economy. The need for an effective enforcement of contracts to attract private investment was also discussed.
At the review of the civil aviation sector, it was decided that the country’s air space should be effectively used in a manner that the flying time for travellers is reduced and airlines save costs.
