This book was released on with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No African leader who wants good for his people has ever been welcomed by Western political powers. From Tomás Sankara to the imprisonment of Mandela by the Germans who control South Africa, going through all the prefabricated wars in Africa to cause social instability while the resources of the peoples are plundered; very few African leaders with true nationalism and pan-Africanism have led the destinies of their peoples. The socio-political instability of Africa and its peoples is the ultimate goal of racist imperialisms in the world. That is why the story of Obiang Nguema mbasogo, President of the Republic of Equatorial Guinea is an important part of the History of Africa, the True History of Africa. No African leader or African leader who has wanted to improve the quality of life of the inhabitants of his country has been considered a friend to the imperialists and the financial powers that control global macro politics. For this reason, and because nobody is perfect, to write about Obiang Nguema Mbasogo, President of the Republic of Equatorial Guinea, is to write with knowledge of the facts, since I have always defended a single cause in relation to my country, and it is the cause of A Better Guinea. As an African, respect for the elderly regardless of personal particularities makes the responsibility of writing in the year 2021 about an African Head of State in power since 1979, five years before my birth, even more serious. As an Equatorial Guinean, I know from experience the socio-political reality of the country from all fronts, and I have never been impartial, because I am an objective and above all rational person. The disorder and the senseless, and that alleged monopoly of knowledge of those who claim to be politicians in Equatorial Guinea because that is their profession, is not part of my rhetoric. I respect everyone's opinion and as an Equatoguinean and African, I do not expect my opinion to be respected, much less by Equatoguineans and Africans, because in short, in Africa individual opinions are not respected or rather, they are not tolerated. For this reason, I am going to ask intolerance for a little patience while reading these lines, since freedom of expression is not a two-edged sword but simply and clearly a straight line. There is no country without poverty, but poverty is a shame, because it is created easily and through negligence, and it is also easily avoided and with the technical knowledge that experience provides. When a country is as rich as Equatorial Guinea, with more maritime territory than continental and with huge deposits of oil and gas; For a small country of around two million inhabitants that means doom for the People when its leaders are irresponsible, and a blessing for the Nation when its leaders are responsible. When people talk about Equatorial Guinea in the world, unfortunately they only talk about oil and human rights, those rights that are denied to all Africans and Afro-descendants in the world when their resources are assaulted and kidnapped by foreign powers. Those rights that are also denied to many Equatorial Guineans, and the evidence is in their experiences, experiences and their truth, which is also a struggle. Coming of age of life is not the same as coming of age in politics. The political age of majority is acquired after many experiences. The political age of majority is acquired after having been assigned to the front line together with the supposed political leaders and seeing that they are not leaders of anything or represent anyone. Political age of majority is acquired by observing and feeling that the People of Equatorial Guinea are very tired of their own discontent. The political age of majority is acquired after seeing that corruption is the flag that has replaced the flag of any party, and that is a serious problem for our young Nation. Equatorial Guinea is a young country that has reached Political Majority. The political age of majority is acquired when one speaks in the first person and with knowledge of the facts, because he does not have political, economic, blood or any other commitments with anyone other than the People.

Book excerpt: In the easy moments and when everything is going well, everyone is your friend; and in difficult moments the true enemies are revealed.

This small African nation has become in recent decades in the crosshairs of locals and strangers. On the one hand, not only is it the only Spanish-speaking African country, but its abundant natural resources, mainly oil and gas, have caused the country to come out of oblivion after a ruthless Spanish colonization.

Download or read book Republic of Equatorial Guinea Request for Purchase Under the Rapid Financing Instrument Press Release Staff Report and Statement by the Executive Director written by Andrea Richter Hume and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2021-10-21 with total page 61 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Already battered by a still unfolding COVID-19 pandemic, Equatorial Guinea was struck on March 7 by massive accidental explosions at a military compound in Bata, its largest city, that killed over 100 people and caused widespread damage to surrounding neighborhoods. These shocks have adversely impacted economic activity and weakened considerably the fiscal and external positions, relative to the EFF-supported program approved in December 2019, creating a substantial financing gap. With the EFF-supported program off-track, as governance reforms have taken longer than originally envisaged, it is not feasible to effectively respond to the humanitarian crisis within the EFF framework. Bringing the program back on track would take time as the authorities continue to work on outstanding structural measures due to capacity constraints in the pandemic context and need for consensus building. Support provided under the RFI, buttressed by appropriate prior actions on governance and safeguards, would create the fiscal space necessary for the authorities to meet the immediate humanitarian needs, and reinvigorate engagement under the EFF-supported program.

The economy is slowly emerging from the ravages of the 2020-21 shocks, buoyed by higher international oil prices. However, substantial challenges remain: (i) surging food prices and banking sector vulnerabilities cloud the short term, while (ii) declining hydrocarbon productionand the implied decline in external reservesloom over the medium term, especially in light of lagging governance and diversification reform implementation.
