IMMIGRATION AND INVESTMENT PROGRAMME.

WE HAVE RECENTLY RECEIVED INFORMATION FROM A LOCAL COMPANY, CHINA RISING DEVELOPMENT LTD, STATING THAT IT IS AUTHORISED BY THE CAPE VERDE GOVERNMENT TO BE ITS SOLE AGENT IN S.E.ASIA FOR PROMOTING AND EXECUTING AN IMMIGRATION BY INVESTMENT PROGRAMME. THIS COMPANY INTENDS TO PUBLISH A NOTICE IN A LOCAL NEWSPAPER ANNOUNCING THE PROGRAMME IN THE NAME OF THE MINISTER OF FINANCE AND PLANNING OF THE GOVERNMENT OF CAPE VERDE, MR.JOSE TOMAS VEIGA. A LETTER FROM THE MINISTER OF FINANCE AND PLANNING SIGNED BY JOSE TOMAS VEIGA WAS PRODUCED AS SUPPORT. A COPY OF WHICH WILL FOLLOW BY FAX.

WE HAVE NO INFORMATION ON THE IMMIGRATION BY INVESTMENT

PROGRAMME, AND SHOULD BE GRATEFUL FOR ANY INFORMATION YOU MAY HAVE ON THIS PROGRAMME. WE ALSO WONDER IF THE CAPE VERDE MFA IS AWARE OF THIS DEVELOPMENT. THE CAPE VERDE GOVERNMENT IS ALREADY IN THE PROCESS OF SETTING UP A TRADE PROMOTION OFFICE (WHICH WILL BE INCORPORATED IN THE CAPE VERDE CONSULATE GENERAL, WHEN THIS IS OPENED).
