Diamond exports from Botswana in August continued to decline, highlighting the need to diversify the country's economy. Meanwhile, on Friday Botswana noted half a century of independence from Britain.
According to the Bank of Botswana, diamond exports fell by 5%, to $ 399.7 million dollars. In the first half-year supply of diamonds for export decreased by 1.8%, even though in July, they were significantly higher due to the low base effect of last year.
Botswana diamond industry can no longer enjoy conducting "business as usual", because the growth will be zero, even if production will remain the same, wrote last month, economists at Econsult company in Gaborone.
"We must turn to other growth sectors, including raw materials such as copper, iron ore and uranium, which we should use," - quoted in a June speech Botswana President Ian Khama South African edition of the Daily Maverick.
