{Ugandan traders have requested a Rwandan Aviation Company, Rwanda Air, to start new travels as a way of helping them to meet clients\u2019 needs.}<\/p>\n

The request was made by over 100 traders yesterday in Kampala during the event of sharing breakfast organized by Rwanda Air office in Uganda.<\/p>\n

The vice chairman Kampala Traders Association (KACITA), Hope Katwine, has requested Rwanda Air help connect the region to the Asian continent. <\/p>\n

\u201cYou are filling a gap in this region. We want you to expand travels so we can easily access markets in China and Bangkok,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Frank Mugambage, Rwanda\u2019s High Commissioner to Uganda said that the decision of regional leaders to have one market in East Africa must be supported.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe can\u2019t work as an island. We must support that decision since it is a large market bringing benefits for us all. We will be able to promote our economies through that collaboration,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Mugambage has said Rwanda Air is planning to expand travels to Europe, India and China.<\/p>\n

Kampala traders who attended yesterday\u2019s meeting played a ruffle where lucky ones won free air tickets to Dubai.<\/p>\n
