Economy

Economy in Swaziland is impartially varied. Agriculture, textile, mining, manufacturing and forestry are all sectors which accounts on the Swazi economy. Swaziland depends strongly on South Africa as 90% of their imports depends on them and around 60% of their exports as well. The agro-industry employs the majority of locals however the country suffers from a high rate of unemployment. The country has to create more attractions and to find new developments to create more jobs. The mining sector has had a decline recently as coal is the principal mineral found.  Despite issues, there is an increase in urbanization which has millions of opportunities to be exploited.
