MULUZI, CHISSANO TO PUT THEIR HEADS TOGETHER

MALAWI’S President Bakili Muluzi is expected in Maputo Thursday for a two-day visit that will include talks with his Mozambican counterpart Joaquim Chissano. Chissano press representative Antonio Matonse said the two leaders would hold “consultations on bilateral and regional issues”. Muluzi is the chairmen of the Southern African Development Community (SADC), and Chissano is head of the 14-member organisation’s defence and security organ. Their meeting comes a few days after Chissano visited troubled Swaziland where he met with King Mswati III on that country’s troubled political situation. – AFP
