Struggling after the floods in Mozambique - 17 Jan 08

Flooding in Mozambique has killed at least seven people and forced sixty thousand more to evacuate their homes. Heavy rainfall has increased water levels in three major rivers.
Authorities expect those levels to remain high until mid February, and are preparing to move more than two hundred thousand people.
Al Jazeera's Kalay Maistry reports from a resettlement camp in Caia in central Mozambique.

Mozambique is a beautiful country! and things are going much more better..

That's a very ignorant comment - Mozambique's not a basket case, it's one of Africa's more stable democracies and fastest growing economies.

I can barely see Kalay Maistry. Mozambique is another African basketcase. Hopefully, some Chinese and others will come to this country and other African countries help them come through these disasters.
