Belgium to help Kenya exploit maritime resources

Belgian government will continue supporting Kenya to help maximise benefits from its marine potential. Belgian Ambassador to Kenya Roxane de Bildeling said in Mombasa Saturday that her government will engage with Kenya on various fields that are of mutual benefit to both countries.

She spoke when she led a delegation on a tour to the Marine Fisheries Research Institute KMFRI laboratory facilities in Mombasa.  Belgium donated a marine research vessel to KMFRI in 2013. “Kenya and Belgium have enjoyed cordial bilateral relations in the field of marine sciences since 1985 and the donation of a marine research vessel, RV Mtafiti in 2013 is a clear testimony of this engagement,’’ she said.
