First Mozambique, it's a country that's had a difficult start in life, a long struggle for independence from Portugal, followed by a bitter civil war that lasted almost 20 years. Now with prospects of oil and gas wealth and an enviable record of stability it's among the Africa's boom nations, notching up the kind of 7.5% plus annual economic growth rates until recently only China could manage. Well this week we've been airing a series of special reports from Mozambique. Right now we're looking at that precious peace and stability. The leader of Renamo, the rebels in the civil war, is Afonso Dhlakama. Now despite the peace agreement that ended that conflict in 1992, Renamo has recently been involved in renewed violence. In an interview for the BBC and under extremely tight security, Afonso Dhlakama has been speaking with help of an interpreter to our business reporter Tony Bonsignore. I'm in Beira, the second city in Mozambique, a far cry this from the hustle and bustle of Maputo but still a really important economic centre. Now there's a port here, one of the major ports in southern Africa. The rail route here transports something like 35,000 tons of coal from the northwest of Mozambique to the port and then onto China every single day. Now it's also a very important political centre. It's a stronghold of the opposition forces.
