“We are working with government agencies and the ministries of economy, planning and finance of the Government of National Accord to develop a roadmap and an integrated program to provide more support for the private sector effectively,” Al-Amin told Xinhua.
“We also seek to develop strategies and action plans, in partnership with international organizations, to support micro enterprises that represent an important part of the national economy,” he added.
