A statement from Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai’s office said Mangoma left

Harare Wednesday night and his first engagement will be as guest of honour

at a meeting organised by the Netherlands Institute for Multiparty Democracy

in The Hague on Friday.

Thereafter, the Zimbabwean minister would address a public discussion on

Saturday which would focus on the EU’s international cooperation policy and

would be opened by the Netherlands Minister of International Cooperation

Bert Koenders.

"The meeting and the public discussion will look into what forms of

assistance the European Union and the Netherlands can give to promote

Zimbabwe’s economic and political turnaround," the statement said.

The visit is part of efforts by Zimbabwe’s newly formed unity government to

market the country as a safe investment destination once again following

nine years of political instability.

Mangoma has since his appointment in February led Zimbabwean delegations to

South Africa where he sought to entice business people from the continent’s

largest economy to invest in Zimbabwe.
