Mozambique’s gas wealth - Insurgents shut down huge energy project | DW Documentary

[@angelaremetio6094]

I'm from Manila and I grew up in Chokwe and moved to the city of Maputo and consider Mozambique my home. This news brings back memories of classes being canceled because of insurgents back in the 90s, we lived there for almost 10 years. Wishing you everlasting peace my home, Mozambique.

It's no surprise that such radicalization occurred in an economically deprived and neglected area. A military approach alone won't address the underlying grievances of the local people or the exploitation they face from France.

Hopefully, the Mozambique government will find ways to improve the living standards of the region, offer meaningful employment and education opportunities, and enable the local population to benefit from their oil and gas resources.
