Programme of Activities for the Implementation of the Preparatory Phase (1982-1984) of IDDA

Abstract

Some of the major project areas in this sub sector are in the production of machine tools and metal-working equipment? Cutting tools; jigs, tools and fixtures for tool rooms; foundry and forging equipments. In the short-term, the raw material inputs could be obtained through long-term purchase agreements from African countries with iron and steel, such as Algeria, Egypt, Nigeria and Zimbabwe and ports from the rest or the world. More iron and steel projects; are proposed for the long-term period. In those cases where national markets are too small, sub regional and multi-country projects are proposed.
