Thirty-nine Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) across the country have received a financial boost from Hope Initiative Southern Africa Namibia.

This support, valued at N$ 340,000, is designed to help these businesses grow and recover from recent challenges.

Prime Minister Saara Kuugongelwa-Amadhila says cultural exhibitions are vital for society as they play a huge role in preserving and promoting Namibian cultures, safeguarding people's identities, and at the same time attracting local and international tourism.
