The Chairperson of the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Economics and Public Administration has called on the mining and fishing industries in the Erongo Region to invest in the development and upgrading of transport infrastructure.

Natangwe Ithete made this call during a visit to the Trans-Namib train station at Walvis Bay.

Ithete says it is disheartening to observe the railway line in poor condition in a region with a wealth of natural resources.
