Vehicle market remains hooked on Japanese imports

Botswana’s appetite for cars is slowing, but not enough to loosen the grip of imported used vehicles on the country’s roads.

New data from Statistics Botswana shows first-time vehicle registrations fell by 3.7 percent in the fourth quarter of 2025 to 9,942 vehicles, down from 10,324 in the previous quarter. Despite the decline, passenger cars remained dominant, accounting for 72.8 percent of all registrations during the quarter.

Nakon što je prije mjesec dana pokrenuta javna nabava za rekonstrukciju i dogradnju Područne škole Donji Dragonožec, jednog od najvećih pojedinačnih ulaganja u gradskoj četvrti Brezovica, Grad Zagreb objavio je i javnu nabavu za izgradnju novog doma zdravlja na istoj lokaciji. „Stanovnici Donjeg Dragonošca dobit će nov, funkcionalno organiziran prostor primarne zdravstvene zaštite koji odgovara suvremenim standardima i potrebama lokalne zajednice. Nakon potresa koji je pogodio Zagreb izrađen je elaborat ocjene stanja postojeće zgrade, koji je pokazao da obnova nije optimalno rješenje. U suradnji s Domom zdravlja Zagreb – Centar donijeli smo odluku o izgradnji novog objekta“, poručio je Tomislav Tomašević, gradonačelnik Grada Zagreba.
