Communitarian companies: Head of State focuses attention on stumbling blocks

Tunis: Stumbling blocks in creating communitarian companies in spite of citizens putting forward project proposals, particularly in agriculture, was the pivotal issue at a meeting which President Kaïs Saïed had Monday with Minister of State Property and Land Affairs Mohamed Rekik and Secretary of State in charge of Communitarian Companies Riadh Chaoued. Indicators show communitarian companies, a total of 64 (50 local and 14 regional), delivered on their objectives, the Presidency further said in a press release. The Head of State instructed to remove obstacles facing citizens and said "there is no way youth keep on being excluded while state agricultural lands are rented at low prices to underserving people." President Saïed said each official needs to enforce the law and ease procedures for citizens willing to set up communitarian companies. Source: Agence Tunis Afrique Presse
