Sep 10, 2010 Mozambique: Police and Protesters
Thirteen dead, at least 300 injured, and 224 arrested is the toll
of three days of demonstrations against prices rises and the high
cost of living. The main protests were in Maputo and the adjoining
city of Matola, with both cities paralysed on Wednesday and
Thursday (1 and 2 September) and only slightly functioning on
Friday. Activity returned to normal on Saturday, and on Tuesday
September 7, the government announced a reversal of the price
increases.
Sep 10, 2010 Mozambique: Poverty and Inequality
"Donors need to believe in the Mozambique success story, so they do
not look at anything which would challenge their comfortable
picture and would force them to rethink their consensus development
policy. But inequalities are growing and are now the major area of
conflict in Mozambique." - Joseph Hanlon
May 23, 2007 Africa: Medicines without Doctors
"The World Health Organization estimates that to achieve the
Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), health systems need at least
2.5 health workers per 1,000 people. In Mozambique, ... per 1,000
people there are 0.36 full-time equivalents of health workers (2004
figures).Mozambique's health workforce would have to be multiplied
by seven to achieve the MDGs."
