The health status of Namibia has improved steadily since independence, and the government further seeks to improve the country’s health services.

Despite the scorching heat, thousands of Namibians and Zambezi residents turned up to celebrate Namibia’s 34th Independence Day anniversary held yesterday in Katima Mulilo. 

The Trans-Zambezi Highway officially known as the Walvis Bay-Ndola-Lubumbashi Development Corridor (WBNLDC) is without a doubt one of the safest corridors in Africa, as it eliminates the necessity for police escorts to accompany trucks moving valuable cargo along the corridor. 

The Zambezi region has diverse natural resources for development.

Travellers to the Zambezi region can expect to be taken on an exquisite culinary adventure.

The Zambezi region continues to be the commercial, trade and travel hub in north-eastern Namibia.

As Katima Mulilo bursts into a hive of activity to host Namibia’s 34th Independence Day, the town enjoys a carnival atmosphere with streets and public facilities cleaned and decorated for tomorrow’s big celebrations.
