  • Transport Guide by Road Buses Are the Cheapest Mode of Transport In
    Getting Around Mozambique: Transport Guide by newsdesk By Road Buses are the cheapest mode of transport in Mozambique but regular services only operate between major towns where roads are in motorable condition. In rural areas, people negotiate rides and fares on converted passenger trucks (chapa-cems) or regular trucks (camions). On the services that do operate, carry food and water as the stops are literally few and far between. Foreigners should also ensure all their travel documents are in order and must carry them on their person as the authorities conduct regular and strict checks for documentation. Cabs are rarely available outside the main cities but there are plenty of car rental firms happy to hire vehicles to foreigners who pay in hard currency. For those planning to drive themselves, insist on hiring a sturdy 4WD and check its roadworthiness. An International Driving Permit is necessary, traffic drives on the left of the road and insurance is recommended. There is a fairly extensive network of gas stations along the major routes though not in the reserves and game parks. Driving after dark outside of the cities can be dangerous as car hijackings and highway robberies are commonplace. Stray cattle and vehicles without headlamps are the other hazard on country roads, which are anyway, poorly maintained. The bus service in the capital, Maputo is better than most and actually covers a large amount of territory. The long-distance bus depot is on Avenida 24 de Julho just beyond Praca 16 de Junho in Maputo. In all the cities, taxis are metered and drivers still expect to be tipped.

  • Mozambique Transaction Cost Study
    Mozambique Transaction cost study Research commissioned by the CTA Draft 2 October 2008 1 Introduction Africa, compared to other regions, has the highest incidence of poverty. With research showing a positive link between exports and growth, a rise in exports out of Africa is essential for sustained growth of the continent. However, Africa has been unsuccessful to capture the international market and make use of this vehicle to steer away from poverty. How can this situation be altered? Until now the private sector has contributed very little to growth in Africa, mainly due to the crowding out by the public sector. There is a growing consensus amongst researchers that a thriving private sector is crucial for sustained economic growth and a thriving export sector. The remaining question is what role government should play. The two extremes seem to be on the one hand a government that steers the export sector in a specific direction; and on the other a government that plays no further role than to create an environment supportive of the private sector. The effectiveness of special enterprise support schemes, in which ‘wise’ planners detect a need, throw resources at it, and micro-engineer the outcomes, has been questioned in research. The World Bank publications are highly sceptical about deliberate government action aimed at improving the performance of enterprises and developing competitive advantages. They warn that strategies that claim to pick winners can go spectacularly wrong and are expensive gambles with public funds. The alternative is to decrease the role of government by reforming the regulatory environment for business, for example the simplification of business registration procedures as well as reforms of labour regulations and property titling (UNIDO).

So why did thousands of people in dozens of countries take to the streets when world food prices spiked in 2008 and 2011? Are food riots the surest route to securing the right to food in the twenty-first century? We know that historically, food riots marked moments of crisis in the adjustment to more market-oriented or capitalist food and economic systems.
