>>
>>  He added: “I am realistic in appreciating that the development and

>> friends.Your government’s economic strategies clearly identify emerging
>> markets as the best source of potential new investment.
>>
>>  Regional matters dominate the local agenda – for example the Senegambia
>> Bridge and the wider relationship with Senegal especially on the Casamance,
>> security issues Mali and Guinea Bissau, relations with Ecowas and the AU,
>> establishment of The Gambia as an important hub for trading, inward
>> investment and other purposes, and many other things.Looking beyond the
>> region, The Gambia’s relationship with Taiwan will always be crucial.”
