Malawi is called upon to pay attention to regionalism through implementation of common agric. policies for regional market integration Strengthen institutional capacity building & mutual learning from other countries in Africa Explore opportunities for South to South cooperation: China, India, Brazil, Japan Broaden national development partner support to CAADP 2008 - CAADP 5th Anniversary-need for affirmation for next 5 years - 13% Commitment to agriculture by Malawi not enough!
