Please elucidate for me if you don't mind
In terms of relevance to the economy of theworld,angola and rwanda has little or no effect.
A collapse of these countries economy wnt affect anyone except it's citizen.
I read on NL recently about angola's fast economic development wich we both know is because of there increase exploration of oil making them the highest producer in africa but does it's citizen feel the change?
Though i hardly read.or hear about these countries, I usually still tink they are still at war esp rwanda.

Yes I have. It is good to be exposed to what other Africans are up to and not only Ghana, South Africa and others as some of us are accustomed to.

''Because the country and its people have a Latin American flair''. From their culture to their diversity. It is like a Brazil in Africa.

''Because the country and its people have a Latin American flair''.

The stupidity of black man!.
When will Africans learn to be themselves?.
When are we going to be proud of our color and heritage and culture,and stop this stupid flair of a thing?.

@topic;
please,development doesn't mean building big houses,that ordinary citizen of Mozambique cant ordinarily access.
Please,show me pictures of good roads,good health care facilities,clean bore-holes,good markets and schools,etc.these are the primary needs of an average human being,with Africans and Mozambicans(quans) not being exceptional.

Africa must learn to prioritize their common needs.

Please don't get me wrong!.

And one of the power house of africa is sleeping encouraging slum everywhere! I tell u, many states budgets in Nigeria surpass that of mozambique as a country but u can't see what they governors do with the money. Constituency projects that all them law makers collect, senators, house of reps, state house of assembly, we do not see what they do with them. Nobody is developing new cities in this slum country n the south south has not deem it fit to create about 4 modern cities with all the oil money! I think the citizens should start gunning down all these thieves called politicians n political office holders

I did not conclude it was; maybe you should peruse the thread to help squash your assumption. The purpose of this thread was to showcase a different side of Africa that is not Anglo-Saxon. It is beneficial to be aware of what is going on. That is all!

Op this looks good. I like to see African countries making progress.

I see that southern african countries are moving faster than west and east africa in terms of development.

But u just showed the upper class expatriate side.

Can we see the average Maputo?

These are NOT expatriates but middle income Mozambicans. It is true that most Mozambicans are poor but if you are familiar with Mozambique's history you will be impressed with how far this country has come. Turn the time to a decade ago,this country never had all these amenities you are seeing now. The country was was in total destitute. It was named as a failed state by international agencies but look at the country now. To add to that, this country is NOT exporting any oil. A lesson for others to diversify their economies and stop relying on a primary source.

My problem with you,is when you use the word 'grow'.
If am not mistaken,'most' of the pictures here,are private investments(private sector driven),and others perharps,are projects executed under PPP/BOT.Let me say this,it is a welcomed development,but please,how is the life of an average Mozambican,in terms of availability of government institutions and its accessibilty by the masses.
You can't talk of growth,without those critical things that heralds it,such as;
Good learning facilities,for intellectual growth,Agriculture to curb hunger,and good roads to transport farm produce.You can't talk of the development of a nation,without first talking about the 'needfull'.
If you fail to provide education for your people,and build five star hotels for them in the name of 'development',all you are doing is 'producing harlots and hotel robbers'.Africa must stop Voodoo economy.

The Mozambican government has plans to construct 10 new airports in the country (YES!, I said 10). Two new airports have already built and one new international airport is currently under construction in another city.

This is the new airport for the capital, Maputo. The Mozambican government still has plans to expand this airport

They are not socially segregated like in South Africa. When you go to an event, you will find Mozambicans of different races mingling together. I was oblivious to the fact that I was posting a certain group of people. Anyways here are young Black Mozambicans

Some of these African countries are quietly undergoing some monumental and futuristics projects that are almost exclusively managed by indigenous experts. Ethoopia and Sudan are at the moment maximizing the power of the Nile in their quest for developments,economic and social independence. They are beginning to ask the fundamental question of who actually owns the Nile and of what use could it be to thebpeople?
