May the cow cough in the government of the cousins. (Conversation in the dark in the backyard)

Paulo Vilanculo"

-Mr....

Yes, yes, boss...

Is everything alright in your office?

Yes, yes, I have all the subsidies.

The judges?

- They are fine!

The members of parliament?

They're fine too!

- The kid?

He is very pleased and wants to convey his gratitude!

- The businessmen?

These are murmuring...

What do they want?

They say they are going through dark times...

The employees?

- Which employees, boss: the housekeepers or the general staff?

- Whatever...

They're walking around in chills...

Are they promising disturbances?

No, no, they are peaceful!

Well, well, what are they complaining about?

Compared to us, they want a shock with their alleged subsidies and meager salaries...

What kind of raise are they dreaming of?

They think and say that they would like the minimum wage in Mozambique to be at least one-tenth of the customs officers' bonus...

That's declaring war on the landlords!

But why demand such a high fee?

They should understand that here in Mozambique, the working class no longer exists!

They say they heard on the news that the digits went up in our economy...

We need to do little by little, but often, and not give too much at once, in order to achieve good subsidies...

What ruins these people is stubbornness.

Don't they see the situation in Macomia?

Don't they realize we're in a crisis?

Our lives are tight.

Life is difficult for all of us.

There's no reason for them to love us!

In Moeda, too, money doesn't circulate...

Hunger is also plaguing Memba.

In Lichinga, they don't produce good beans anymore.

We each had to understand our brother.

I think everyone should let go.

This is our only path to salvation.

The country is not producing, that's true!

This is our harsh reality.

We will continue to live in absolute poverty, a people in revolt!
