Overview:

• Recognition and registration are amalgamated; a focus is placed on legal registration; there exists no provisions for existential recognition; only a semblance of recognition is available through tax-exemption.

• The existence of intolerance towards non-Christian religions demonstrates need for broader means of recognition and more sophisticated religious education in the country.

Positive elements:

• Religious freedom is generally respected.

Recommendations:

• Establish distinct provisions for existential recognition.

• To become dynamic, establish an independent recognition agency to manage the system.
