Dhacdooyinka Wakhtiga Cusub

BY: Suleymaan Dugsiiye

Qarnigan aan ku jirno waa hubaal inuu is badal badan wato. Ka u weyna yahay khayraadkii dunida oo gabaabsi ku dhow. Taasina waxay dhalisay in dowladaha aduunku dib u qorsheeyaan arimahooda ku aadan docyada siyaasada, dhaqaalaha iyo deegaanka. Waxa taa ka markhaati ah waxa ka socda Bariga Dhexe, Afrikada Galbeed iyo Geeska Afrika. Dhacdooyinkooduna aad moodo inay ku salaysan yihiin boob iyo gumaysi doon casriyaysan oo ku qotoma: Qaatee qaado, Yaan lagaaga horayn, Sobotaad dooni u yeel, Maxaa kaa galey. Bal xoogaa aan falanqayno qarnigan an joogno wuxuu wato iyo sidey wax u socdaan

MOZAMBIQUE: Growing poverty with mineral wealth

Can oil defeat poverty?

MAPUTO, 7 January 2008 (IRIN) – For years, the coal-mining town of Moatize, in the northern Mozambican province of Tete, has been a ghost of its former self, but this is about to change.

Its railroad is closed and the purpose-built prefabricated neighbourhood, called Berlin after long-disappeared German miners, now houses local residents. Like much of Mozambique’s extractive industry, the decades-long civil war resulted in large-scale damage to infrastructure, and the region’s mineral wealth was all but ignored.

But the peace dividend appears to be paying off since hostilities ended in 1992. Vale do Rio Doce, a Brazilian mining company, is expected to resuscitate coal mining at Moatize by 2010 and its investment has already begun to bring rapid changes to the town. Read more of this post

Africa: Geology and Geography

Geology and Geography

Most of Africa is a series of stable, ancient plateau surfaces, low in the north and west and higher (rising to more than 6,000 ft/1,830 m) in the south and east. The plateau is composed mainly of metamorphic rock that has been overlaid in places by sedimentary rock. The escarpment of the plateau is often in close proximity to the coast, thus leaving the continent with a generally narrow coastal plain; in addition, the escarpment forms barriers of falls and rapids in the lower courses of rivers that impede their use as transportation routes into the interior.
