"Angola witnessed civil war for several years, but complete peace has been established now. The country has given a boost to partnerships around the world, and is heading for a great future," the minister told the gathering.
 
"Angola has great potential in various sectors including science & technology and information technology. The industrial sector also has enormous potential on account of abundance of raw material," he added.
