M'gubudu shares a border with the Kasungu area of Malawi while Chiparamba slopes towards the Luangwa Valley. The accessibility of the two areas, about 60 km from Chipata, is as poor as the whole length of the road to Lundazi. In simple terms, that area could be the "Chisamba" of Eastern Province if it had electricity, good roads and the like.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02444385043826528068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6900460698887397063.post-38237093651587581292008-06-17T19:15:00.000+01:002008-06-17T19:15:00.000+01:00Gershom, The two chiefs should be engaging governm...Gershom, <BR/><BR/><I>The two chiefs should be engaging government to take electricity to the M'gubudu and Chiparamba areas which have great agricultural potential instead of just politicking on by-election candidates. </I><BR/><BR/>Aren't there other ways to generate development in the area, other than engaging government? <BR/><BR/>I was thinking that there might be funds available internationally for agricultural development, reforrestation, etc. <BR/><BR/>I haven't been there, what is your personal opinion of the area?MrKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12801241362245253006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6900460698887397063.post-68705461854145161572008-06-14T23:08:00.000+01:002008-06-14T23:08:00.000+01:00Is it time then for the AU to step to the front an...Is it time then for the AU to step to the front and take the lead from SADC to deal with Mugabe? Bob does not have any respect for a SADC led by Levy, as we've heard before. But why? Well, Levy himself has not made enough (powerful) friends in the region to have created a credible power bloc within SADC. As I've said before, Levy seems to be aligned with the weaker side, while Mugabe is supported by the more powerful bloc. The situation in Zim is now requires stern action, and SADC isn't about to do much.<BR/><BR/>Meanwhile, in South Africa, another Mozambican man has been burned alive, after being robbed by gutless South African thugs. Where is Mandela and Tutu? Surely they know what sacrifice the Mozambicans, Zambians, and Zimbabweans made to have gotten rid of apartheid.Zedianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15620459516168720746noreply@blogger.com
