Zomba, July 19, Mana: President Dr. Lazarus Chakwera has disclosed plans of introducing modern ships to sail on Lake Malawi to ease transport challenges.

Chakwera said it sad that until now, the country was using old ships.
“We have been talking of MV Illala for so long, but I think its about time that we should be discussing of modern ships,” he said.
Chakwera said he would soon be going to Germany where he will among others, discuss with engineers in that country to support in building ships in Malawi.
“When time comes for the trip, don’t be surprised just know that this is what I was talking about,” he said.
