  • 2.4 Mozambique Railway Assessment Railways Overview
    2.4 Mozambique Railway Assessment Railways Overview Page 1 Page 2 The Mozambique Ports and Railways Administration (CFM) was created in 1931. The railway system was developed in order to be connected with the three main ports of Maputo, Beira and Nacala, mainly to provide a fast, safe and efficient transit transportation service for mineral and agriculture exports from South Africa, Zimbabwe and Malawi, and for some national traffic from landlocked provinces. The main railway network is about 2,500 km long, distributed in three systems in the South, Central and North, each with 1,067 mm (3’6”) gauge (cape gauge) that is compatible with neighbouring railways networks. The railway system was designed mainly for goods transportation, i.e. there are little passenger rail services in the country. On the other hand, there is no direct rail connection between the three systems inside Mozambique territory; connections are however available via neighbouring countries. The railways were severely targeted by acts of war after the independence of Mozambique in 1975, first by Rhodesian forces prior to Zimbabwe’s independence in 1980, and then during the civil war in Mozambique which lasted until the nineties. These acts of war inflicted major damages on railway lines and bridges, and on locomotives and wagons that consequently disrupted traffic. Recent extensive infrastructure rehabilitation and locomotive and rolling stock renewal programmes undertaken across all three networks, combined with some strategic management concessions, have brought railways back to adequate operational conditions and to be reliable transportation services. Plans exist to augment the capacity of the current railway system and to build new lines to serve the growing mineral market, which mainly consists of coal from the Tete province.

Multi- Scalar Governance Sixteen years following Mozambique’s independence in 1975 and civil war (1975-1992), the government of Mozambique began to decentralize. The Minister of State Administration pushed for greater citizen involvement at local levels of government. Expanding citizen engagement led to the question of what role traditional leaders, or chiefs who wield strong community influence, would play in local governance.1 Last year, President Filipe Nyusi announced plans to change the constitution and to give political parties more power in the provinces. The Ministry of State Administration and Public Administration are also progressively implementing a decentralization process aimed at transferring the central government’s political and financial responsibilities to municipalities (Laws 2/97, 7-10/97, and 11/97).2 An elected Municipal Council (composed of a Mayor, a Municipal Councilor, and 12 Municipal Directorates) and Municipal Assembly are the main governing bodies of Maputo.

  • Portuguese Culture and Language in Maputo. Homage to Mozambican Brothers
    Fragments of Memory: Portuguese Culture and Language in Maputo. Homage to Mozambican Brothers Fragmentos da memória: cultura e língua portuguesa em Maputo, homenagem aos irmãos moçambicanos Nilce da SILVA Aparecida do Carmo Frigeri BERCHIOR ABSTRACT This article reveals the importance of keeping alive and recognizing the memories of learning the Portuguese language by a group of Mozambicans who are residents of the city of Maputo and whose maternal language is not Portuguese, in the sense of reflecting on the relationship between language and the construction of citizenship. From data collection of oral records and from how we treated the data; we achieved results that show the ethnic-cultural diversity inside Mozambique’s capital. Moreover, the set of interviews also indicated that familial relations and the relations established inside schools are strong for the insertion of these citizens into the Lusophone world, after Mozambique’s independence from Portugal in 1975. Moreover, the article intends to assist in the implementation of Law 11.645/08 concerning the study of Afro-Brazilian culture and history in classrooms. Index terms: Law 11.645/08, learning of the Portuguese language, Maputo, the rescue of memories. RESUMO Este artigo revela a importância de não deixar esquecida e desconhecida lembranças do aprendizado da Língua Portuguesa de um grupo de moçambicanos, habitantes da cidade de Maputo, que não teve esta língua como língua materna, no sentido da reflexão acerca da relação entre língua e construção da cidadania. Pelo viés da coleta de dado de registro oral e a partir do tratamento dado ao material, obtivemos resultados que nos mostraram a diversidade étnico-cultural na capital moçambicana.
