Tanzania elections
• DAR ES SALAAM, Tanzania — The governing party, which has
reigned for decades, is determined to extend its monopoly on
power. The opposition is convinced it has the numbers to take
over. The population is growing at an explosive rate, with
millions mired in poverty. Gangs of young men from rival
parties have already clashed in an uncharacteristic burst of
political violence.
The Dubai of Africa- São Tomé
• This week the São Tomé government launched itself on to the
world market for thrusting island-based business enclaves
with a two-day investment conference in London, during
which it announced a deal to build a $800m (£518m) port in
its naturally deep coastal waters with the help of a Chinese
conglomerate.
