Monday 11th August FIG Vice President Paul van der Molen visited
the President and Secretary General of the Institution of Surveyors of
Tanzania, Prof. Simon Ndyetabula and Mr. Nassor Duduma, in Dar
es Salaam. FIG was informed about priority issues of the Tanzanian
colleagues, while the Institution was informed about new FIG policies.
Substantial attention was given to the ethical standards of the profession
in Tanzania, where the Institution acts as an advisor to the Government's
National Council of Professional Surveyors. The Council issues and maintains
the licenses of the private surveyors. It appears that the Institution aims
at keeping high ethical standards, to guarantee trust of the Tanzanian
people in the surveying profession. The Institution is active in promoting
the profession in the Tanzanian society while at the same time promoting
professional advancement through seminars and courses. Aspects of regional
cooperation also came at stake, where the role of FIG and CASLE to which the
Institution is associated was highlighted. The Institution has about 350
professional surveyors in three different categories.
