My government considers it urgent and necessary to implement measures to reduce the cost of living for Mozambicans,\u201d President Nyusi said. \u201cWe know that any measure has its implications. However, I recommend that the cadres now taking office join the colleagues who are already working to mitigate the cost of living for Mozambicans. The cost of living is no longer a song, nor is it a joke; it is a reality in Mozambique and in the world,\u201d the Mozambican head of state said.<\/p>\n<p>President Nyusi says that the projections of prices of essential goods, especially cooking oil and cereals, lead to the conclusion that this is a moment of crisis that requires a firmer intervention by the government. He added that the executive should immediately assess relief measures, even if in the short term the focus is on measures which attack the structure of the cost of imported fuels.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese measures may contemplate subsidies to the formal passenger transport sector, they are of an extraordinary nature and will have a negative impact on the balance of public accounts, as well as on the ratios related to the macroeconomic management of foreign exchange reserves. However, they will allow the mitigation of inflationary effects, as long as external shocks persist, and mitigate the deterioration of the living conditions of Mozambicans, especially those in need,\u201d the president said.<\/p>\n<p>The measures were announced this Tuesday at the inauguration ceremony of the new Minister of Transport and Communications, Mateus Magala, and of the new Deputy Minister of Mineral Resources and Energy, Ant\u00f3nio Sa\u00edde.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/mozambique\">Mozambique<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Mozambique.
