Trump’s Tariff Slash: What it means for Namibia

[PODCAST]

Now, our next conversation takes us beyond the local market shelves and into the world of global trade. Under a new executive order signed by U.S. president Donald Trump, tariffs on American goods entering several African countries, including Namibia, have been slashed from 21% to 15%.

To help us unpack the economic ripple effects of this development, we’re joined by well-known economist Salomo Hei.
