According to a promise by President Filipe Nyusi, the Sovereign Fund \u201cshould be operational before the start of the flow of revenue that will come from the liquefied natural gas production projects located in the Rovuma Basin\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>This week, the Italian oil company Eni started to liquefy the first natural gas from the Coral Sul field, with first export expected to take place in October. For 2022, state revenue of 94 million Meticais is forecast, rising to 1.25 billion Meticais in 2023.<\/p>\n<p>Renamo was not the only party to highlight the absence of this law, fundamental for the future of Mozambique. \u201cWe continue to be spectators instead of authors of the creation of our wealth based on leveraging our potential with regard to the wealth of the country\u2019s soil and subsoil, as well as the sea that God has given us, so here and now we vehemently reiterate the urgency of creating the Sovereign Fund,\u201d said Viana Magalhaes.<\/p>\n<p><b>By<\/b> Ad\u00e9rito Caldeira<\/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.
