EU observers criticise elections
(15/02/2010)
The 28 October elections were well organised and peaceful and largely guaranteed universal suffrage, reports the European Union Election Observation Mission. Fundamental freedoms and rights of assembly, expression and movement were respected.

Despite this, the broader electoral process was weakened by the lack of transparency by Mozambique’s electoral authorities, by an unlevel playing field during the electoral campaign and by limitations with regard to voter choice at local level. As in 2004, irregularities in counting, tabulation and aggregation were observed.

The EU Observer Mission also found:
+ Electoral "legislation is unclear and at times contradictory."
+ "Filing a complaint is de facto nearly impossible at every step of the electoral process."
+ "The presence of political party representatives at CNE maintains an unlevel playing field and an unequal access to information."

The full report is a very large file: 3.25 MB.

Parties need cars: comment
(16/11/2009)
Transparency is something quite impossible to get in mozambican political scenario... more
Parties need cars
(16/09/2009)
Parties needs cars for campaigning. It is also obvious that neither Renamo nor Frelimo have cars. Why has nobody put forward the idea that Government makes a certain number of cars, with driver and (maybe) fuel, available to the political parties on more
