The new contingency plan for natural hazards was approved by the Government of Mozambique last Tuesday, in preparation for the next rainy season 2008/09.

"We are not acting in the face of any concrete reality. So far, these are just scenarios. They are unpredictable situations, but, as a responsible government, we have to draw up this sort of plan, so that the country is not taken completely by surprise. The geography of Mozambique demands that we take these precautions" said Luis Covane, Deputy Education Minister.
