The starch factory<\/strong><\/p>\n

A $25
\nmillion starch factory project under construction in the Pru West District of the
\nBono East Region is expected to employ over 3,000 people, Stephen Jalulah,
\nDistrict Chief Executive, has said.<\/p>\n

Mr. Jalulah,
\nwho was on a working visit to the factory site, said the project formed part of
\ngovernment\u2019s \u2018One-district, One-factory\u2019 initiative. \u00a0He said 300 of the workers would be permanent,
\n120 would work on the company\u2019s cassava plantation, whilst the rest would be
\ncasual and indirect workers. <\/p>\n

Speaking to DAILY
\nGUIDE<\/em><\/strong> in an interview, Mr. Jalulah reiterated government\u2019s commitment
\nto improve the lives of the people in the Bono East Region with social
\nintervention initiatives. He, therefore, appealed to traditional, religious and
\nother mediatory bodies in the district to support the government.\u00a0\u00a0 <\/p>\n

In a related
\ndevelopment, the engineer for the project, Emmanuel Kojo Boakye, revealed that
\nabout 70% of the work was complete, with the remainder going on as scheduled. He
\ndisclosed that logistics, tools, building materials, equipment and labour were
\nall in place.<\/p>\n

In order to
\nensure the smooth operation of the factory, he said a cassava plantation had
\nbeen established by the company at Prang for easy access to the raw materials
\nneeded for starch production. <\/p>\n

Over 1,000
\nacres of cassava had been planted this year to feed the starch factory, and a
\nlot of the local people had so far been engaged to work on the cassava plantation.\n<\/p>\n
