Madam Speaker,
2n fulfillent of the /onstitutional re3uireent stipulated in article &%& 4&5 of the
/onstitution of Uganda# 2 stand here to deliver the *tate of the 6ation .ddress#
$%&'. -his is not a ere constitutional ritual as soe people ay want to perceive
it but accountability on particular 1overnent coitents since the last *tate of
the 6ation .ddress.
1
Mada *pea+er# on &$
th
"une $%&' the Minister of 7inance# Planning and
Econoic developent will present to this .ugust House and the entire 6ation the
Budget 7Y $%&'8$%&!. *he will also detail what has been achieved and what we
intend to achieve in the coing 7inancial Year.
-he *tate of the 6ation .ddress 2 a delivering today# therefore# gives a
broader picture concentrating on the basic priority sectors which are9
agriculture# industry# services and 2/-.
-he Ugandan econoy continues to be vibrant aidst econoic challenges and
refors on the local# regional and 2nternational scene.
2 +eep telling the audiences 2 address that there are the four sectors for wealth
creation and access to eployent. .nybody wishing to generate wealth# create
self eployent# eploy others or access eployent has no alternative but
choose one of these four. -he four sectors are9 .griculture# 2ndustry# *ervices and
2/-.
How are the four sectors perforing: .griculture is in two parts. -here is the
coercial and plantation faring. -he coercial faring still has got
challenges such as the high costs of inputs# the under;developent of water for
agriculture# the low use of fertili<ers and poor anageent s+ills by the farers
theselves. =hat is decisive for any enterprise to prosper# apart fro the
2
entrepreneur# is the ar+et > the buyer. 2f enough people do not buy fro you#
you cannot continue to produce. -hat is why 2 a always careful to recoend to
the farers only crops and livestoc+ products that have got a big internal# regional
and international ar+ets.
-he global deand for coffee is 149.1 million bags at the value of U*? 13.6
billion unprocessed and 32 billion processed@ the value of tea is US 11.4 billion
with a total deand of 4 million tonnes! the total value of il+ and il+ products
is US 32." billion with the total 3uantities of #3$ million tonnes! etc. -hese are
values of these products as aterials# not as finished products. -he values of
finished products of the ites above# are as follows9 2f soething has got a low
global deand# we should +now the conse3uences of encouraging the farers to
floc+ into it. -herefore# the leaders and the farers should +now that these
products of our agriculture ust copete regionally and globally because that is
where the big ar+et is. 2n order to copete# our prices and 3uality ust be
copetitive. Having loo+ed at the global prices# we should# then# wor+ bac+wards
and see how we can reduce our costs and iprove our yields in order to iprove
our profit argins within the ar+et deterined international prices. .s a farer#
it is good enough for e that soebody is buying y il+ and y beef. .t one
tie# we had nobody buying our il+ because the il+ being consued in the
towns was coing fro outside. =e are now doinating the il+ sales in
Uganda and also e(porting to the entire East .frican region# 6igeria# Mauritius#
3
the Middle East and# also# 2ndia and the United *tates# etc. =hat 2 have said is true
of bananas# etc. -he relevant 1overnent departents ust# accordingly# firly
regulate these products. Atherwise# if our 3uality is coproised# we shall be
ruined. =e cannot afford a bad reputation within Uganda and outside of poor
3uality products on account of poor regulation.
.s you can see# infrastructure in any parts of the country is iproving# such as9
the tarac roads# the electricity# the telephones# etc. 2 a negotiating with "apan
2nternational /o;operation .gency 4"2/.5 to buy "apanese earth;oving
e3uipent for both roads and water e(cavation on a big scale. Ance this deal goes
through# it will help us with the roads# water e(cavation for earth das and even
bush clearing. -he "apanese e3uipent is very good. 2 have seen its capacity on
y own fars. =ithin our eans# we are continuing to roll out the irrigation
schees. 0oho 2rrigation Rice *chee has been repaired at the cost of Shs 19.#
billion. Mobu+u has also been repaired at the cost of Shs. 19 billion. -he .goro
2rrigation *chee has been copleted at the cost of Shs. 2# billion. -he
rehabilitation of the Alweny 2rrigation *chee will coence in $%&'8&! and is
estiated to cost a total of 42 billion shillings. -he Ministry of .griculture#
wor+ing with our brothers and sisters in Kenya# should avail affordable ini;
irrigation e3uipent. =or+ing with Ma+erere# we are also trying to develop a
solar;powered irrigation pup.

-he agricultural sector grew by &.!B per annu this financial year in spite of these
challenges. .s 2 +eep telling you# the agriculture of Uganda is still handicapped by
the CDB of the households that were still in subsistence faring according to the
census of $%%$. 2f all these hoesteads were converted to coercial faring# the
si<e of agriculture would be uch bigger. 2n the Manifesto of &EEC# the 6RM put
forward a four acres plan for these hoesteads that have got that si<e of land.
Using the yardstic+ of the financial returns per acre per annu and of sufficiently
large global deand entioned above# we recoended the following enterprises9
clonal coffee > one acre@ fruits 4oranges# angoes and pineapples5 > one acre@
bananas or any other food crop 4cassava# 2rish potatoes or upland rice5 > one acre@
and elephant grass for <ero;gra<ing 7riesian cattle > one acre. An these# you
should add poultry for layers of eggs and pigs as bac+yard activities. -hese do not
re3uire uch land. -hose near the swaps should engage in fish faring. Many
can participate in apiary for honey. 2n soe areas# they grow tea. =ith 3 a%res of
tea, one %an get abo&t Ug. Shs 13.'million per ann&m. 2n the case of those
with less land than the four acres# there is the option of ushroo growing as well
as vegetable growing in addition to poultry and piggeries. (n the %ase of the latter
t)o *po&ltr+ and pigger+,, +o& )o&ld &se animal food bo&ght from the others.
=ith one roo;full of ushroos# using shelves one on top of the other# you
would earn Ug. Shs. 2$ million per ann&m. Ane acre of onions would give you
Shs. 24." million per ann&m! an acre of toatoes would give you Shs. 14 million
per a%re per ann&m! an acre of cabbages would give you Shs. 2$ million per
5
a%re per ann&m. -he global deand of m&shrooms is 3.' million tonnes,
valued at US1$ billion.
-he political class# the religious leaders# the cultural leaders and even the peasants
theselves have been slow in grasping this issue of enterprise selection for the
peasants with sall pieces of land and for the need to convert fro subsistence
faring to coercial faring. -he peasants that have wo+en up to this need#
have had the proble of planting aterials and breeding aterials. 6..0* that
has been given huge resources to do this# spends ost of the *hs. $%F billion we
give the each year on salaries and seinars. -hey only spend *hs. !G billion on
buying aterials for plantation and breeding. -he rest is spent on salaries and
seinars. =e are deterined to totally restructure 6..0* in the coing
financial year. Many farers have wo+en up. =hen they get planting and
breeding aterials# they loo+ after the well# for the aHority of cases.
2n this financial year# although starting late# 2 e(periented with the deployent of
UP07 officers in our forer war <ones. -here are $! forer war;<ones. -hese

shillings in the two rainy seasons of the last E onths# the coanders deployed in
these areas# have distributed9 && illion seedlings of coffee@ $ illion seedlings of
tea@ 'C'#&FG seedlings of oranges and angoes and &#'&$ tonnes of ai<e and
beans# etc. 2f the soldiers can do this using so little oney# why should 6..0*
and all those associated with it fail with these hundreds of billions: 2t is really
ebarrassing for all those involved. -he good news is that the oney is there and
has been there. 2t is Hust a 3uestion of getting the right channels for this oney to
reach the peasant farers. .bove# 2 have Hust tal+ed about 6..0* oney. -here
is also the oney of icro;finance. Every year# we provide Ug. *hs. &C billion for
this. -here is also the oney of the youth. Every year we provide *hs.F$ billion
for this. -here is oney for 6U*.7. Every year we provide *hs.!F billions for
this. -here is PR0P. Every year we provide Ug. *hs. GF.E billion for this. -here
is the restoc+ing oney. Every year we provide oney for this. -he proble is
not shortage of oney. 2t is the shortage of reliable agents for conveying this
oney to the people. -o show you the scale of this oney# if we used only *hs.
&%% billion of this oney in one year# at a cost of *hs. F&% per coffee seedling
including transport# we would plant F$$ illion new coffee trees of the clonal type
> far in e(cess of the $$% illion old coffee trees. By Hust planting new coffee
trees# even without e(panding the acreage# using the &%% billion shillings which is
less than !%B of what we give 6..0* each year# with good crop husbandry# our
annul coffee production would go fro the present ' illion bags of C% +gs each
7
to# at least# ore than &% illion bags. -hat would a+e Uganda second only to
Bra<il in the global coffee production.
2 have dwelt on agriculture because it is the sector that is ost easily accessible to
the aHority of Ugandans. Even the ones without land can borrow or rent fro the
others. 2t ta+es a few onths for planting to harvesting 4&D onths for coffee#
two onths for toatoes# etc5. 1od has really favoured .frica and# especially#
Uganda. However# any .fricans are never +een to accept 1odIs blessings.
=ithin $ onths# F onths# ' onths# C onths# &D onths# depending on the
crops# a farer can go fro planting to harvesting. Yet# there are challenges such
as drought# pests# fungi# etc. However# there is a solution for any of those
challenges. =e only have to do a bit of sweating. 2n the Boo+ of 1enesis9 /hapter
F verse &E# it says9 JBy the sweat of your brow, you shall eat bread, till you return
to the ground, for out of it you were taken; for you are dust and to dust you will
return.
Having said all that# however# it is necessary to reind ourselves that a odern
econoy cannot depend on agriculture alone. 1one are the days of the physiocrats
in 7rance who believed that all value cae fro agriculture. Hence# we ust go
the second sector > industries > anufacturing > big factories and sall ones.
(nd&str+ no) emplo+s "41,#$4 persons. -he ann&al rate of gro)th of the
ind&strial se%tor has been '.6. =ith the coissioning of BuHagaali# there has
8
been alleviation of power shortage although the price of electricity is still high.
=e are deterined to provide electricity for anufacturing at ' U* cents per unit
whatever the challenges. -his is what 2 agreed with the coffee processor and the
new te(tile anufacturers that are beginning to floc+ in the country as the factories
igrate fro /hina on account of the rising labour costs there. -hose who# out of
conte(t# agitate for higher salaries should bear this in ind. Uganda cannot iss
this round of industriali<ation for any reason. .part fro industries coing fro
outside# 2 want to infor the country that our young scientists# graduating fro
universities# are happily entering the anufacturing fields. .s you could see fro
the shows in Kui > D
th
of March K =oenIs 0ay@ > Rubaare# 6tungao > &
st
of
May# ,abour 0ay@ and only the other day at 6aulanda for the youth# the
Ugandan scientists have the +nowledge to produce anything fro food processing#
ceraics# herbal edicine# achine parts# light engineering# wood products# etc.
etc. Aur scientists at Ma+erere have already produced electric autoobiles and 2
tas+ed the to wor+ on solar water pups. My office has collected all the naes
of the people involved. =e shall fund the using these huge sus of oney that
go to waste in the hands of all sorts of actors. 2t is so pleasing to see that Ugandan
scientists can anufacture alost anything provided they are funded. =ith the
ephasis we have put on electricity# the roads and the railway# we shall be able to
lower the costs of doing business in this econoy and# therefore# a+e our
products ore copetitive.
-he third sector > services 4hotels# transport# ban+s# professional services# etc5 this
year grew by !.CB. =ith peace# this sector has becoe very useful in our
9
econoy. (t emplo+s 2,6"4,29$ persons and a%%o&nts for 4'.4. of o&r /01.
1iven the uni3uely good cliate of Uganda# very few countries in the world can
copete with us in this area. =e only need to control the probles of9 corruption#
pollution and deforestation. 2t is only these three that can underine our
unrivalled advantage for services# especially touris. 2n the year $%&$# Uganda
was declared the best touris destination in the whole world. Between &&
th
and
&C
th
6oveber# $%&'# we are going to host the /onference of the =orld
.ssociation of -ourist Aperators. However# when 2 see# through the window of
the plane# the green algae in the water around Entebbe# 2 do not feel happy. -he
Minister of the Environent ust strive to find ways to stop the following9
4i5 -he pollutants that go into the la+e@
4ii5 /utting forests up to the edge of all la+es@
4iii5 0igging on the ban+s of the River 6ile@
2t is high tie that Ugandans reeber and appreciate these precious gifts fro
1od. 2f they donIt get the care they need and deserve# they can all disappear. =e
should reeber what "esus said in Mathew G9C# dont give what is holy to the
dogs, nor cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet,
and turn and tear you in pieces. When we destroy our 1od given environent#
we will be li+e those pigs.
2 ust salute the 0irector of the 6ational 7orestry .uthority 467.5. 2t sees he
has soewhat wo+en up. 2n the recent past# 2 have flown over Mabira forest#
10
Budongo forest# the forest around Butiiti in Kabarole and *eli+i forest. 2t sees
the encroachent has declined. 2 flew for do<ens of inutes over this large area
of thic+ forest. How beautiful it is. ,et the Minister of the Environent siilarly
wa+e up in respect of the shores of ,a+e )ictoria and the ban+s of river 6ile. Aur
uni3ueness# in the service sector can only be enhanced by protecting these
treasures > the la+es# the rivers# the ountains# the wetlands and the 6ational
Par+s.
-he 2/- sector is growing at 1'. ann&all+ for last 2 +ears. 2t has got capacity to
eploy any people. -he 2/- is crucial for counication aong people# for
data processing and for autoation. 2t is crucial# therefore# for industrial
production and counication. 2t# therefore# will create a lot of Hobs. .lready
about over & illion persons are eployed in the 2/- sector both direct and
indirect.
2n the area of Business Processing Autsourcing 4BPAs5# we already have '4
%ompanies operating in Uganda and they are eploying '#$!% persons. 1iven that
our youth spea+ English well# a lot ore youths can get eployed in this sector.
-his is where an accountant can wor+ for a copany in 6orth .erica and convey
the results of his8her wor+ over the internet and be paid. Recently# while in
11
Europe# 2 discussed with soe entrepreneurs that can help us e(pand this business.
2t is an area of great potential.
=hile tal+ing about the industrial sector# 2 did not tal+ about inerals. You are
aware of the petroleu and gas that we shall be able to start e(tracting fro the
ground by $%&G. .s you ay be aware# we have already found F.! billion barrels
of petroleu in '%B of the potential area. E(ploration in the rest of the area is
continuing. Aur negotiations with the oil copanies had delayed because there
were contentious clauses# happily# we have agreed with the oil copanies on the
MAU. =e can# therefore# proceed to negotiate on the details. Aur crude oil will
be used in the refinery to produce final products# part of it will be e(ported as
crude and part of it will be used for electricity generation. -he gas will be used for
electricity generation and for assisting in e(tracting the crude. 2f we have enough
3uantities of gas# it will be used in steel anufacture# using our huge iron;ore
deposits in the Kabale;Kanungu areas and in the *u+uru hills near -ororo. .part
fro oil and gas# the governent conducted e(ploration in any part of the
country and discovered the following inerals in the following 3uantities9
4i5 2ron;ore ; ore than $%% illion etric tonnes
of proven ore in Kabale and Kanungu areas@

4(iv5 Roc+ salt and brine ; $$ illion tonnes in Katwe and
soe parts of the country
4(v5 Uraniu ; in soe parts of the country
Pressure is already on for e(porting these inerals in unprocessed for. 2 will
never accept these pressures. -his is because even the traditional peasants in
13
Uganda have enough econoics in their heads to +now that when you produce the
mbiire 4embidde K the bananas for brewing beer5# you brew the beer yourself
4tonto K waagwa!. You do not produce embiire# sell the to your neighbor# who#
then# brews the beer and sells it to you. Most of these inerals will be processed
here and will also be i(ed with other inerals so as to produce interediate
products# such as alloyed steel and# where the econoics allows# final products.
Uraniu# in the ediu and long;ter# could rescue us in the field of energy. =e
have a lot of it and nobody is touching it now on y orders. Meanwhile# li+e we
did for petroleu# we have sent out our scientists for ore advance training in
nuclear physics. -hey will for a nuclear energy unit in the Ministry of Energy.
Uganda does not ha2e a lot of h+dro3po)er e2en if +o& add all the sites that
are not +et e4ploited5 6alagala, (simba, 6ar&ma, A+ago, M&r%hison falls,
6iba, 6orianga, Agago, M&7i7i! and o2er 4$ small h+dro3po)er sites. =e
shall have soe ore energy fro the geo;theral 4ay be &#%%% egawatts or
there about5. Yet a developed Uganda needs a lot energy > !%#%%% egawatts or
ore. =here shall we get this level of energy fro: 2f the cost per unit for solar
energy goes down# then the solar energy will be the solution. Meanwhile# 2 prepare
the country for the option of the nuclear energy.
Economic Growth Performance:
-he coposite growth for the whole econoy has iproved even before the
bottlenec+s have been reoved.
14
-he si<e of the Ugandan econoy is e(pected to increase to Uganda *hillings
CF.F$E -rillion# e3uivalent to U* 0ollars $!.F billion. -he si<e of the econoy has
increased by !.GB in the current financial year. -his Econoic 1rowth rate is
coparable to the !.DB growth achieved in 7Y$%&$8&F# despite constraints outside
1overnentIs control.
-hese constraints included unfavorable weather conditions in any parts of the
country in the second half of $%&F# which negatively ipacted agricultural
production. 2n addition# the ongoing instability in *outh *udan# which had becoe
one of UgandaIs e(port destinations# is also a factor ipeding faster growth of the
econoy. 0espite these constraints# output growth during 7Y $%&F8&' still
represents a strong perforance. 1rowth was largely driven by strong
perforances in ining and 3uarrying# cash;crop production# inforal
anufacturing# wholesale and retail trade. Price 2nflation has also reained under
control during ost of the year and is e(pected to be G.EB percent at end of "une
$%&'.
Economic Growth and Welfare:
-he econoic perforance reveals the resilience of the Uganda econoy that has
resulted fro the consistently correct policies of the 6RM 1overnent over the
last twenty eight years. /onse3uently# the proportion of people living below the
poverty line has further declined fro above !CB in &EE$ to $'.!B percent in
15
$%%E8&%@ and now to &E.GB in $%&$8&F. Uganda has# therefore# already surpassed
the first M01 target of halving the proportion of the population living in e(tree
poverty by $%&!. *oe parts of the country have got even better perforance
figures. =hen the other areas catch up# Uganda will enter the Middle 2ncoe
status.
-he share of population with access to electricity# for instance# has risen fro
under FB in &EDC to &%B in $%%E to &'B in $%&F. 2n rural areas# the share has
risen fro %B to GB over the sae period. -he 6RM 1overnent has set a target
of '%B for electricity access by $%$$. Aver the ne(t ten years# 1overnent plans
to increase access to Electricity in Rural areas to $CB of the total rural households.
*iilar e(aples abound in areas such as access to water# Priary# *econdary and
-ertiary education@ -hese indicators are therefore not ere tal+# but actual reality
on the ground.
-he above sectors of the econoy cannot grow if we do not address the issue of
infrastructure > the roads# electricity# the railway# the 2/- bac+bone# etc. 2 a
very happy with 6RM Mebers of Parliaent 4MPs5. -hey have rallied around
y long held view that infra;structure developent and security are priary. -hat
is why in the budget of $%&F8%&'# Roads and Energy account for Shs.4,1"6.4
billions and 0efence and *ecurity account for Shs 1,$4".' billions. -hat will
reain the orientation of our future plans. =e are adding the developent of the
standard gauge railway fro Mobasa;Kapala;Kigali;"uba# wor+ing with
16
Kenyan brothers# brothers fro *outh *udan and fro Rwanda as well as our
/hinese friends. ,ow costs of production will attract ore anufacturers and
service copanies. You have already the seen results of this type of prioriti<ation
in budgeting. 6ew areas that had no electricity do so now > Moroto# 6a+apiripirit#
.udat# Atu+ei# Moyo# Bibia# Bundibugyo# etc. -he sae has happened with
roads.
-here is nothing that pleases e ore than seeing new tarac roads > especially
those done with the Uganda 1overnent oney such the nearly finished Kapala
KMasa+a road# Mbarara;Ki+agati# etc.
-he other area of ephasis is s+ills for the youth. *ince soe tie ago# we have
been ephasi<ing that science +nowledge and technical s+ills are crucial. -hat is
why# since .ugust# $%%C# we had decided that G%B of 1overnent scholarships for
universities will go to science students# however# /abinet approved !FB. 2 have
been interacting with the youth > especially the university graduates. . new
awa+ening is apparent. -hree trends are noticeable. -rend one is that science
graduates are going into starting anufacturing enterprises in association with
others or singly. -rend two is that those who did general arts degrees are going
into faring and other enterprises. -rend three is that soe of the scientists are
being absorbed into the new copanies that are opening up. 2 was ost pleased to
see the young graduates of electrical engineering running the achines at the new
BuHagaali power station.
17
Ane of the greatest stiuli for our econoy to continue growing the global
econoic probles notwithstanding# is the regional ar+et. 2t says in the Boo+ of
1alatians chapter C# verse G# it says that whatever a man sows, that is what he
will reap. =hen a nation has no vision# it perishes# it says in another portion of
the Bible. Aur ephasis# with our brothers and sisters in the region# on regional
integration has paid the Ugandans ost handsoely. Uganda e4ports to the
region goods and ser2i%es to the t&ne of US1.36 billions. 8e also b&+ from
the region goods and ser2i%es to the t&ne of US 6#1millions.
7inally# all this would not happen if Uganda was not peaceful. 2 salute the UP07#
the Uganda Police# the 2ntelligence services and the vigilance of the population of
Uganda for the peace that is prevailing in every corner of Uganda > KaraoHa
included. Everything else depends on this.
