All will depend on its assessment of LAM\u2019s needs and capacities.<\/p>\n<p>Magala believed that, once the team was on the ground, it would be easy to determine the resources needed.<\/p>\n<p>He said that one of the purposes of the new rehabilitation strategy for the national airline is to reduce its fares.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGenerally, the reduction of fares is a function of economies of scale and efficiency\u201d, he added. \u201cCertainly this has to be linked to good management within a favourable civil aviation regulatory environment. We intend to achieve this quickly so that passengers can benefit from greater access to our LAM\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The South African company will bring its own planes and equipment to help improve the management of LAM, which is effectively bankrupt.<\/p>\n<p>According to Magala, the decision to put LAM under new management follows an assessment carried out last year, with the support of the World Bank.<\/p>\n<p>Privatisation of LAM was ruled out, largely because of its debt burden of around 300 million dollars. Instead, the government has opted to bring a private company into the management of LAM, but without compromising its essence as a public company.<\/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.
