Minister of Finance Felix Mlusu will be the first to meet Chilima in the Office of the Vice President’s conference room at Capital Hill in Lilongwe.
After Mlusu, it will be the turn of Minister of Transport and Public Works Sidik Mia.
Chilima–who before joining frontline politics in 2014 worked as the first Malawian managing director for multinational Airtel Malawi– has already met directors of finance and chief executive officers (CEOs) of parastatals and the captains of the industry on a new reform roadmap.
The public sector reforms were launched in 2015 and Chilima was the first to champion the reforms before he was replaced. During the launch, heads of parastatals signed contracts of expected deliverables over a period of time.
