Aid For Mozambique

Well at least blacks somewhere in the world are
getting U.S. funds. Bush may be trying to sway
future immigrants from Mozambique to join the
republican party. He's had little success in his
home country so he's taking the recruitment
drive on the road. Well whatever his reasons I'm
glad to see he's spreading the wealth. What do
you think?


The main U.S. development fund on Friday signed a $506.9 million aid agreement with Mozambique to promote economic growth and reduce poverty in the southern African country.
The agreement was signed by Millennium Challenge Corporation chief John Danilovich and Mozambican development and planning minister Aiuba Cuereneia in Washington.

U.S. President George W. Bush set up the MCC, which extends foreign aid for anti-poverty programs in developing countries, in 2004. Since then, it has signed aid agreements with 12 countries, most in Africa and Latin America. It is expected to sign a similar deal with Lesotho in July.
The funding for Mozambique would help fight poverty by improving water, sanitation, roads, land rights and agriculture, Danilovich said
"The agreement is a testament to Mozambique's strong commitment to good governance," he said, adding that program should benefit about five million Mozambicans.
