MBABANE — Eswatini’s Cabinet has approved a series of major policy reforms focused on strengthening governance, fighting corruption, and improving the country’s investment environment.

The decisions include the adoption of a National Anti-Corruption Policy, approval of a new National Investment Policy, and the establishment of the National Disaster Risk Management Authority. The government has also secured a successful bid to host the 26th COMESA Summit of Heads of State and Government.

Prime Minister Russell Mmiso Dlamini described the developments as part of a broader government drive to improve public service delivery and create stronger opportunities for investment.

The anti-corruption policy is expected to provide a framework for strengthening prevention, accountability, and institutional coordination, while the investment policy is designed to support a more attractive environment for domestic and international investors.

Political observers say the reforms could shape Eswatini’s governance and economic policy agenda in the coming period. The planned COMESA summit could also raise the country’s regional diplomatic profile and create opportunities for closer cooperation with other member states.

The government’s latest policy decisions signal a renewed focus on institutional reform, accountability, investment promotion, and regional engagement.
