According to Nyusi, the choice of this theme clearly illustrates the understanding that reviving of the economy, in a context marked by uncertainties and adversities is the major challenge currently facing the country.<\/p>\n<p>In Mozambique, these adversities include terrorist attacks in some districts of the northern province of Cabo Delgado, despite the bravery of the Mozambican Defence and Security Forces (FDS) and their partners.<\/p>\n<p>Coordination attacks in the last few months helped to restore peace and tranquillity in most of the affected areas, which have allowed gradual return of displaced people to their homes.<\/p>\n<p>Through FIKANI, Mozambique intends, on the one hand, to show to the world its best in terms of culture and tourism, and to make the world aware of the beauty of the country.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, at an institutional level, it is intended to stimulate the consolidation of a favourable environment for rapprochement and constructive dialogue between the government, as a regulator, and the players in the tourism industry.<\/p>\n<p>The organizers expect to over five thousand international visitors up from 4,300 in 2019.<\/p>\n<p>Nyusi explains that this rise, although comparatively small, it is a clear sign of trust that the target group has placed on FIKANI as a privileged space for the establishment of partnerships and attract investment opportunities to the sector.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/NyusiConfioemti\/videos\/1770699299944492\/\"><b>video<\/b><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"\/\/www.facebook.com\/micultur.gov.mz\/posts\/pfbid02KZjUV16spYQzM6LjAure9Zkf9kufeFYpWF7zAkZTt1FBeB4VqJFfs13pWPhapMTdl\"><b>Facebook Post click here<\/b><\/a><\/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.
