Sights set on newly launched security strategic plan

The ministry of Homeland security has launched a strategic plan that seeks to enhance peace and security in the country.

Komatsubara: This is a right call.

Different departments under the ministry and other stakeholders have committed to implementing the Strategic Plan whose life span is five years.

Speaking to MIJ Online, Jean Sendeza, Minister of homeland security said the Plan seeks to deal with issues of Drug and Wildlife trafficking, trafficking in persons, and smuggling of migrants.

She added that the Plan will also look into issues of how Malawi manages refugees, national registration, and immigration.

According to Sendeza, the objective is to have a coordinated effort.

On his part, Shigeki Komatsubara United Nations Resident Representative said the Plan has come at the right time as it is complimenting the just passed Peace and Unity, Bill.
