 Thanks for posting the link to Mozambique News under What's New.
I found that the links on this site open all sorts of new windows to African
news sites. I finally rested on a site http://allafrica.com/mozambique/newswire/
that had articles related to you guys and the work Shelby was involved with.
Mozambique: Humanitarian
Agencies Battle Drought, Poverty And HIV/Aids
Ramsamy Praises Mozambique
for Strengthening SADC
Jamy, how is the research and writing going?
I found the subject of telecom is a hot topic with the article Bill
On Telecommunications Introduced. During my years in South America, I found
that many countries were skipping the technology generation of tele-wire to
wireless through most of the country. In Ecuador, "phone stations"
were being closed because individuals were investing directly into a handheld
wireless phones rather than trekking 20KM to the make a call. In Bolivia, wireless
was being subsidized by national to provincial governments because is was significantly
cheaper than running lines though thick, and in some cases protected, rain forest.
I also got a discovered that Mozambique was aided by China with military assistance
during their fight for independence, Chissano
Visits China.
Anyway thanks for the good link.
