President of the Republic, Filipe Nyusi, participated yesterday in the Corporate Business Forum, which discussed the vision and the agricultural sector development strategy. At the meeting, the Head of State discussed with entrepreneurs, mainly from this sector, how they can participate actively in the transformation of domestic agriculture, which is eminently familiar to industrial production levels and agro-processing. At the time, Filipe Nyusi said he supports a public-private partnership to transform agriculture and called on various economic and social actors so that, instead of just pointing problems for large sector projects, such as ProSavana advance toward solutions that may the help that they can be inclusive.
The policemen in Mozambique
will always ask you for a BI,
bilhete or bilhete de
identidade,which is your ID.If
you dont have it,well, the
corrupt ones will ask you for some cash,maybe a dollar
(40meticais) or more.They do
not care if you are
Mozambican,they will ask you
for the ID in the city...and if
you happen to have forgoten one you pay,but of course the
money is for their own
pockets.I was stopped
yesterday in the city of Tete.I
told them I had forgoten my ID
at home.They said,''Sir phone somebody to bring the ID
here''.I said I couldn't do that
because my home was 160km
away.I also phoned my
friend,Salvador and told him
that I had been''arrested'' and that I hoped I was being taken
to the police station.You
see,the policemen were not
pleased by my saying so,they
took me aside and they tried to
engage me into a suspicious conversation.I took out my
phone and started googling.I
clearly showed them that I was
not interested in talks on the
street,yet I
showed them a lot of respect but they were not impressed at
all.At that point my
friend,Salvador,came along
and he engaged into a
lengthy,hushed conversation
with them.I completely pretended to ignore them,but
my ears were listening to
everything they were
saying...They needed some
money from me."Buy us a
drink'',they said.I made it known that I had money for
the things I had budgeted for
only.I told them to take me to
the police station so that I
could explain everything or
maybe get charged,''You are an outlaw because you forgot you
ID at home''.Finally they let us
go.We did not say ''thank you
boss''.I picked up my parcel
and we left the scene.The two
policemen went away without even looking back at us.I could
not stop myself from laughing
as I went away.
