The major transitions of the transport network are as follows. a) Before 1970: The Sena Corridor was the major gateway to Malawi • The branch line of the Sena Railway was the main transport mode, supplemented by the Shire–Zambezi inland waterway transport. • Export and import goods were mainly transported by railway due to cheaper transport cost. b) 1970–1983: The Sena Corridor and Nacala Railway were the major gateways to Malawi • The branch line of the Sena and the Nacala Railway were the main transport modes even after civil war broke out in Mozambique. • Inland waterway transport lost its function. c) 1983–1992: Malawi suffered greatly from loss of access to ports in Mozambique • Due to the civil war, all transport links through Mozambique were cut. • Most of the cargoes between Malawi and RSA were transported via Zambia and Zimbabwe, incurring much longer transport times and higher costs.

COLONIAL REPORTS—ANNUAL. No. 1162. NYASALAND. ANNUAL GENERAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR 1922.* GEOGRAPHICAL AND HISTORICAL. BOUNDARIES. The territory comprised in the Nyasaland Protectorate is a strip about 520 miles in length and varying from 50 to 100 miles in width. It lies approximately between latitude S. 9° 45', and 17° 16', and longitude E. 33° and 36°. The area is roughly 40,000 square miles, or about one-third the area of the British Ioles. The most southerly portion of the Protectorate is about 130 miles from the sea as the crow flies. This strip falls naturally into two divisions: (1) consisting of the western shore of Lake Nyasa, with the high tablelands separating it from the basin of the Loangwa river in Northern Rhodesia, and (2) the region lying between the watershed of the Zambesi river and Shire river on the west, and the Lakes Chiuta and Chilwa and the river Ruo, an affluent of the Shire, on the east, including the mountain systems of the Shire Highlands and Mlanje, and a small portion, also mountainous, of the south-eastern coast of Lake Nyasa.

    2 High Potential in the Lower Zambezi A way forward to sustainable development Version 1.0 High Potential in the Lower Zambezi High Potential in the Lower Zambezi A way forward to sustainable development Delta Alliance Delta Alliance is an international knowledge network with the mission of improving the resilience of the world’s deltas, by bringing together people who live and work in the deltas. Delta Alliance has currently ten network Wings worldwide where activities are focused. Delta Alliance is exploring the possibility to connect the Zambezi Delta to this network and to establish a network Wing in Mozambique. WWF WWF is a worldwide organization with the mission to stop the degradation of the planet’s natural environment and build a future in which humans live in harmony with nature. WWF recently launched (June 2010) the World Estuary Alliance (WEA). WEA focuses on knowledge exchange and information sharing on the value of healthy estuaries and maximiza- tion of the potential and benefits of ‘natural systems’ in sustainable estuary development. In Mozambique WWF works amongst others in the Zambezi Basin and Delta on environmental flows and mangrove conservation. Frank Dekker (Delta Alliance) Wim van Driel (Delta Alliance) From 28 August to 2 September 2011, WWF and Delta Alliance have organized a joint mission to the Lower Zambezi Basin and Delta, in order to contribute to the sustainable development, knowing that large developments are just emerging. Bart Geenen (WWF) The delegation of this mission consisted of Companies (DHV and Royal Haskoning), NGOs (WWF), Knowledge Institutes (Wageningen University, Deltares, Alterra, and Eduardo Mondlane University) and Government Institutes (ARA Zambeze).

RML is a 65%-owned subsidiary of Riversdale Mining Limited, a mining company listed on the Australian Stock Exchange, with operations in South Africa and Mozambique. The other 35% of RML is owned by Tata Steel, a major Indian steel producer. An ESIA is a systematic process that predicts and evaluates the potential impacts a proposed project may have on aspects of the physical, biological, socio-economic and human environment as determined by specialist studies and analyses of the specific environment. Mitigation measures, as set out in the approved environmental management plan, are then developed and incorporated into the Project execution plan to eliminate, minimise or reduce adverse impacts and, where practicable, to enhance benefits. RML have appointed Environmental Resources Management Southern Africa Pty Ltd (ERM) in partnership with Impacto Associados Lda (Impacto) as the independent consultants to undertake the ESIA for the Zambezi River Coal Barging Project, the main results of which are presented in this non-technical summary. EIA Process The ESIA process followed was designed to comply with the relevant Mozambican environmental legislation. Accordingly, the ESIA process comprised of a number of key steps, namely: • Project Registration • EPDA Phase (also known as Scoping Phase, and culminating in an EPDA Report) • Specialist Studies • Impact Assessment Phase (culminating in an ESIA Report).

  • The Political Sublime. Reading Kok Nam, Mozambican Photographer (1939-2012)
    The Political Sublime. Reading Kok Nam, Mozambican photographer (1939-2012) RUI ASSUBUJI History Department, University of the Western Cape PATRICIA HAYES History Department, University of the Western Cape Kok Nam began his photographic career at Studio Focus in Lourenço Marques in the 1950s, graduated to the newspaper Notícias and joined Tempo magazine in the early 1970s. Most recently he worked at the journal Savana as a photojournalist and later director. This article opens with an account of the relationship that developed between Kok Nam and the late President Samora Machel, starting with the photo- grapher’s portrait of Machel in Nachingwea in November 1974 before Independence. It traces an arc through the Popular Republic (1976-1990) from political revelation at its inception to the difficult years of civil war and Machel’s death in the plane crash at Mbuzini in 1986. The article then engages in a series of photo-commentaries across a selection of Kok Nam’s photographs, several published in their time but others selected retrospectively by Kok Nam for later exhibition and circulation. The approach taken is that of ‘association’, exploring the connections between the photographs, their histories both then and in the intervening years and other artifacts and mediums of cultural expression that deal with similar issues or signifiers picked up in the images. Among the signifiers picked up in the article are soldiers, pigs, feet, empty villages, washing, doves and bridges. The central argument is that Kok Nam participated with many others in a kind of collective hallucination during the Popular Republic, caught up in the ‘political sublime’.

The development goals of the Master Plan are sustainable economic growth in Malawi and poverty alleviation in the Study Area. Master Plan programmes are prepared for the short term with a target year of 2015, the medium term with a target year of 2020, and the long term with a target year of 2030. The Master Plan indicates definite plans for the transport system and its services in the Southern Region of Malawi. The long-term programme has been prepared to achieve the following challenges of the Master Plan: 1) strengthen the SADC transport network, 2) develop an alternative corridor to Beira Port, 3) improve access to ocean ports and international markets, 4) promote exports by agricultural development, 5) secure steady import of fuel and fertiliser, 6) accelerate mobility of people and logistics to/from Blantyre, and 7) improve communication in the Study Area, with appropriate investment in the transport sector. The long-term programme is also planned to contribute to regional integration in Southeastern Africa under the SADC Treaty. 6.2 Overview for the Development of the Sena Corridor (1) Viewpoint of Southeastern Africa a) Current Situation • The regional infrastructure needs to be developed to accelerate the growth of Africa.
