//Karas regional governor Aletha Frederick says Namibia&#039;s oil and gas discoveries present unprecedented opportunities for the region&#039;s economic growth and prosperity."The potential for massive new green hydrogen development further solidifies our region&#039;s position as a key player in Namibia&#039;s sustainable energy future," she said during a recent regional consultative meeting for the National Development Plan 6 (NDP6).The governor said she envisions the region becoming not only "a hub of economic activity but also a beacon of sustainable development in Namibia. With the right support and financing from the national government, we have the power to eradicate poverty, hunger and unemployment in our region."In addition, Frederick highlighted the importance of local community participation in the vast opportunities presented by regional development."As we embark on this journey of envisioning the future of our region, it is imperative that we recognise the immense potential that lies within //Karas – a region blessed with abundant mineral and natural resources, a thriving fishing industry, significant mining activities and an expanding tourism sector," she said.Frederick also called for the full development of the region&#039;s agricultural sector, which is currently "underutilised".
