Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 71414, member: 636"] Mozambique intends to purchase three aircraft and six locomotives next year as part of a broader initiative to enhance its national transport infrastructure. According to the government's budget proposal, the planned acquisitions for 2026 also include 25 buses and a buoy tender ship. These investments are directed toward the state-owned carriers Linhas Aéreas de Moçambique, or LAM, and the ports and railways company, CFM. The government anticipates that introducing the new aircraft will help increase passenger air traffic by 2.2 percent and cargo volumes by 4.3 percent. This expansion is a component of LAM's ongoing restructuring, which involves a recapitalization of approximately 112 million dollars from three other state-owned firms. The restructuring has also resulted in a workforce reduction. Officials aim to stabilize the airline financially and improve its service coverage. [/QUOTE]
