"Angola is experiencing a good economic growth and more people want to invest in the country and with this rhythm of growth, there is a need to create major accommodation capacity, due to the inflow of businesspeople and tourists" he said.

According to the minister, the construction of 10,000 new rooms in future will contribute to a certain balance of prices in the national hotels market.
