On Thursday, the minister told local media that the upcoming virtual forum for Malawians living in the diaspora is part of the Malawian government's ongoing efforts to promote sustainable development and growth of the mining sector. The forum will include sessions designed for Malawians living abroad to explore unique investment opportunities in the growing mining sector of the sub-Saharan country.
