THE Aga Khan, the spiritual leader of Shia Ismaili Muslims and a prominent investor in the East African region, has backed the planned regional customs union. The Aga Khan, chairman of the Aga Khan Fund for Economic Development (AKFED), said the planned East African customs union would not only widen the market and growth potential but also 'refine and strengthen efficiencies' in the member countries. The Aga Khan said this at the opening of a US$7.2m Alltex apparel manufacturing plant in Kenya recently.
