He promised to key into the dreams and visions of the administration, stating that he would collaborate with civil servants to ensure the country profits from the new ministry.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
He said the creative economy would be used to drive jobs, revenue, community resources and cultural engagement that would help the country to shift from oil dependent economy.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
