Rainbow Party President Wynter Kabimba

Rainbow Party President Wynter Kabimba says he has big plans aimed at transforming Zambia’s mining sector.

Mr. Kabimba says if elected into office, he will encourage state participation in the mining sector to promote small scale mines and not nationalize.

Mr. Kabimba says he will introduce clear legislation to separate large scale mining and small scale mining as well as provide finance capital to Zambian engaged in small scale mining.

He says his government will translate government policy into legislation to encourage private investment and promote dialogue with mining companies.

Mr. Kabimba says another issue that his government will focus on is training experts in mining law, accounts and taxation.

The Rainbow Leader states that he will also introduce legislation for equitable retrenchment packages.
