Government aiming to increase population to 100,000 over next 15 years
The Isle of Man has to 'push forward' to retain existing businesses and bring new jobs to the Island.
That's from Chief Minister Alfred Cannan following his recent trip to South Africa, where he met with business leaders.
Government's economic strategy aims to grow the Island's population to 100,000 by 2037.
Mr Cannan says forging relationships overseas will support that aim:
Isle of Man inflation eases slightly to 2.8% in October
Rising restaurant, food and tobacco prices continue to drive inflation, while energy costs help offset increases
Progress on autism strategy welcomed
Strategy team's first annual report and Phase 2 Action Plan published
