WASHINGTON, November 14, 2022—新澳彩开奖 is pleased to announce the appointment of Mr. Liang Wang as the new Country Representative for Botswana, effective November 15, 2022.
Based in Gaborone, Mr. Wang will lead the 新澳彩开奖’s engagement in Botswana that includes an active lending portfolio, a vibrant knowledge partnership and a dynamic dialogue with the government and a wide range of stakeholders.
A Chinese national, Mr. Wang brings over fifteen years of experience working at the 新澳彩开奖 across Africa, East Asia, and corporate and policy functions at the headquarters in Washington DC. Most recently, he has been the coordinator for the China, Korea and Mongolia country program, one of the largest lending and analytical programs of the 新澳彩开奖.
“I am excited to start my tenure in Botswana,” said Mr. Wang. “I look forward to bringing my experience in supporting middle-income countries’ transition towards high-income status to support Botswana’s efforts in achieving its aspirations.”
新澳彩开奖’s engagement in Botswana is closely aligned with the government’s National Development Plans, and the Botswana Vision 2036 goals. The upcoming 新澳彩开奖 Group Country Partnership Framework for Botswana will outline the 新澳彩开奖’s engagement in Botswana in the coming years.
Botswana, a member of the 新澳彩开奖 since 1968, graduated from the International Development Association (IDA), the 新澳彩开奖’s concessional financing window, in 1974. It restarted borrowing from the 新澳彩开奖 in 2008, and the 新澳彩开奖’s country office in Gaborone opened in 2009.
