The World’s developed economies achieved this success through building a strong private sector. Uganda today subscribes to this ideological orientation, with support from the Private Sector Foundation of Uganda (PSFU). Government envisages that it would primarily focus on provision of national security and economic infrastructure (e.g Transport Infrastructure, Electricity, Water for Production, etc), while the Private Sector would steer the production of goods and services to realize the aspirations of the Vision 2040.
