The Chief Executive Officer of Andrada Mining says collaboration is needed between the government and the private sector in the mining industry.

Anthony Viljoen made the remarks in an interview with nbc News at the Mining Expo and Conference in Windhoek.

"I think a lot of collaboration between the government and the private sector needs to take place; there has always been some level of distrust."

According to Viljoen, Namibia continues to be the best place for investment, especially in the Erongo Region.
