AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Weather & Disaster Preparedness: Malawi is set to get a new weather radar at Kasamba Hills in Mdeka, Blantyre, with the Minister of Natural Resources Patricia Wiskes saying it will deliver real-time alerts for floods and cyclones within a 250km radius, and officials expect handover in about three months. Power Sector Security: ESCOM has intensified anti-vandalism drives with police and chiefs in Lumbadzi, Dowa, warning that transformer and infrastructure theft disrupts supply, endangers the public and drains funds meant for network expansion. Digital & Education Support: Airtel Africa Foundation released its inaugural annual report, committing $6.2m across Financial Inclusion, Education, Environmental Sustainability and Digital Inclusion, including connecting 1,028 schools to the internet via UNICEF and awarding 257 university scholarships in Malawi and other countries. Agribusiness & Consumer Impact: Maize prices in Malawi are easing as the main harvest progresses, but FEWS NET warns overall supply still falls short of national needs after weather-related yield setbacks. Forex & Business Climate: MCCCI is pushing for phased exchange rate unification, arguing multiple rates are worsening forex shortages and distorting trade, while economists warn it could trigger short-term shocks. Fuel Governance Debate: CDEDI continues to challenge NOCMA’s fuel role, alleging cartel-driven distortions in fuel, forex and procurement that keep pump prices high. Public Safety: Police in Mzuzu, with the Pesticides Control Board, arrested a trader accused of selling illegal, expired pesticides and repackaging products with forged labels.
