enable it to structure and restructure the Country in the sectors most relevant to the
quality of life of the Mozambican people and even strategic sectors for the State in the
context of Southern Africa.

point of view – both potential financial and political measures, arising from the
collaboration formally proposed by the Metropolitan of Portugal.May Our God brighten and clarify the Mozambican Government Authorities on the
