President Paul Kagame of Rwanda on Monday officially launched a manufacturing plant for the production of smartphones in the country.
TheNewsGuru (TNG) reports President Kagame, in his remarks at the official launch, described the production of smartphones as a complex manufacturing operation, he said requires significant technical skills and expertise.
“Producing smartphones is not a simple matter. Around one thousand individual components are involved. The Mara Phones plant is therefore a complex manufacturing operation, requiring significant technical skills and expertise.
“It is another milestone on our journey to high-tech, “made-in-Rwanda” industry. Our world is changing fast. Keeping pace requires constant innovation. This is the path Rwanda has chosen for our development.
“The investment by Mara Phones Group is therefore in perfect harmony with our focus on science and technology as the key drivers of our economic transformation,” Kagame said.
