Reposition the public sector to focus on its core responsibility of facilitation and enabling the appropriate legal and regulatory framework for rapid economic and social development.”

 

The second: “Break government monopoly in all infrastructure sectors, including the refineries, rail transportation and power transmission and give private investors a larger role in funding and managing the sectors, thus emulating the benefits accrued in the oil and gas and telecoms sectors.”

 

The third: “Allow the market greater leverage in determining prices. Government intervention, where absolutely necessary, will be done responsibly and judiciously.”
