OTI plans to provide support to three areas: civil society advocacy on key transition issues; strengthening independent media; and nurturing broad participatory processes, including elections. As appropriate, OTI's program may also include activities directed at strengthening deliberative processes and encouraging good governance. OTI's FY 2003 budget is approximately $3.5 million. Country Situation Angola faces severe challenges in rebuilding its physical infrastructure and addressing overwhelming social and economic difficulties following decades of conflict. Among the most pressing social problems are the reintegration of ex-combatants and their families. An estimated 400,000 people are currently housed in temporary quartering areas throughout the country. Progress has been slow on the implementation of a government-sponsored plan to provide resettlement assistance, such as tools, seeds and other resources, to ex-combatants and their families. Closure of the camps, planned for September 2002, is now planned for June 2003, and the mounting dissatisfaction of this population poses a challenge to Angola's fragile peace process.

Southern African Migration Project Migration News - Angola Angola Conflict along border with Namibia (Sapa-AFP, Rundu, 28/10) - A combined offensive by Angolan and Namibian troops against Angolan rebels along the border with northeastern Namibia appears to have been largely successful, but small bands of rebels continue to raid border villages for food, and civilians are still falling victim to landmines. At least 70 people, mostly civilians, are reported to have been killed in the fighting since December, and local doctor Yuri Yangasov told AFP he had performed 94 major and 134 minor amputations. Namibian security forces shot dead at least four rebels last Tuesday.

Angola Africa ECONOMY Angola has a fast-growing economy largely due to a major oil boom, but it also ranks in the bottom 10 of almost every socioeconomic indicator. Aside from the oil sector and diamonds, it is in economic disarray because of 27 years of nearly continuous warfare, corruption, and economic mismanagement. Despite abundant natural resources, output per capita remains among the world's lowest. Subsistence agriculture and dependence on humanitarian food assistance sustain the large majority of the population. By contrast, the rapidly expanding petroleum industrynow producing over 1 million barrels per day (bpd), behind only Nigeria in Africaaccounts for 51.7% of GNP, 90% of exports, and 90% of government revenues. Oil production remains largely offshore and has few linkages with other sectors of the economy. Block Zero, located in the enclave of Cabinda, currently provides the majority of Angola's crude oil production. Chevron, through its subsidiary Cabinda Gulf Oil Company, is the operator with a 39.2% share. Sonangol (the Angolan state oil company), TotalFinaElf, and ENI-Agip are partners in the concession. Chevron also operates Angola's first producing deepwater section, Block 14, which started pumping in January 2000 at the rate of 80,000 bpd and is scheduled to add 180,000 bdp in production by 2006. Production from these Cabinda fields will be eclipsed by deepwater production further south in the Kwanza Basin scheduled to come on-line between 2002 and 2010 that will more than double current production.

The U.N. Security Council authorized a 30-member mission to Angola on October 15, charging it with seeking "effective measures for restoring peace" along with humanitarian and human rights tasks. The Luanda government closed down the U.N. operation in Angola last February, largely because it had attempted to negotiate with the rebel UNITA, the Portuguese acronym for the National Union for the Total Independence of Angola.

Press Release SC/7605 Security Council st Meeting (PM) ANGOLA MOVES NEXT MONTH FROM AGENDA ITEM TO SECURITY COUNCIL MEMBER, SAYS SPECIAL REPRESENTATIVE IN LATEST BRIEFING Recalling UNMA's priority concerns as he briefed the Council on key developments in Angola, Mr. Gambari said that in the Mission's four months of operation, it had successfully initiated activity in nearly all of the areas mandated to it.  Its main areas of focus were the raising of domestic and global awareness of the humanitarian situation and the plight of more than 4 million internally displaced people, refugees, ex-combatants and their dependents, as well as organizing an international donors' conference for reconstruction. Mr. Gambari said that, in close consultations with the Angolan Government, he envisaged a continuing role for the technical sub-group even after the dissolution of the Joint Commission.  The UNMA was coordinating, through the relevant United Nations agencies, aspects of humanitarian assistance, including resource mobilization and the provision of essential life-saving assistance, such as food and medicines. He explained that the Joint Commission had concluded its substantive work on 20 November.  With several key tasks remaining under the Lusaka Protocol, such as the provision of information by the Government and the National Union for the Total Liberation of Angola (UNITA) on the location of landmines and the disarming of civilians, both the Government and UNITA had agreed to address the medium- and long-term tasks through a bilateral mechanism, which would be established in accordance with the Final Declaration of the Joint Commission.

Angola. Map courtesy General Libraries, The University of Texas at Austin. The 29-page report, "Struggling Through Peace: Return and Resettlement in Angola," documents several incidents of government authorities using violence, or the threat of violence, to drive people out of camps where they had been living sometimes for years. The Human Rights Watch report also raises concerns about reported incidents of rape and other sexual violence against internally displaced women and returning refugees. "The end of the conflict in Angola is a blessing for millions of Angolans who can now return home," said Peter Takirambudde, Executive Director of the Africa Division of Human Rights Watch. "But unless urgent measures are taken to stop these abuses, peace will be a curse instead."

After a Marxist government was elected in Angola following independence from Portugal in 1975, South Africa's apartheid government, which was fighting against southern African liberation movements with communist support, vowed to launch a full-scale attack on Cuban-backed Angolan government troops. The operation, codenamed "Zulu", involved troops from South Africa, UNITA and another Angolan movement, the National Forces for the Liberation of Angola (FNLA). The offensive started its drive north towards Luanda on October 23, 1975 and came within 12 kilometres (seven miles) of the Angolan capital. But after retreating under devastating fire in a Cuban counter-attack and amid widespread international condemnation, South Africa withdrew its troops in January 1976.

Former UNITA strongholds in northern and central Angola are captured and UNITA officers give in to President dos Santos' amnesty. Angola has suffered a 25-year civil war following the independence war, which has killed about a million people and forced some 2.6 million to flee their homes. Refugees keep streaming into neighbouring Congo Kinshasa, Zambia and Namibia, where there are fears of a conflict spillover. If the row of victories by the Government should continue, however, the country and the region could see a quicker solution to the conflict than expected. Several municipalities in the Central Huambo Province, one of the traditional strongholds of Savimbi and the UNITA, was recently taken by Government forces. The last half year, Government forces successfully have resumed control over all major towns in eastern Moxico province. This also included the Zambia border town of Cazombo, which had been under UNITA control since 1991. In northern Angola, the border with Congo Kinshasa (DRC) has been shored up by Government forces in recent military victories.

JOHN CHERIAN in Luanda and Benguela LUANDA, the capital of Angola, accommodates about three million people, about one-fourth of the country's population. Many of the city's residents are internal refugees, driven by the brutal and unceasing war that had erupted even before the country was liberated in 1975. The war has left visible repercussions. Disabled war veterans and people who lost their limbs in the minefields of Angola are seen begging at street corners. Angola has six million landmines laid across it - one of the biggest concentrations of landmines in the world. WANG YAN/XINHUA/AP Angolan President Eduardo dos Santos. Still, Luanda remains one of the safest cities in Africa. It is also picturesque, with its beaches, and a number of buildings constructed by the European colonisers. But those were the Cold War days. The Bush administration has now signalled that it is fully behind the Angolan government. Even during the Cold War days U.S. oil companies were doing good business in Angola. Now, with new discoveries of bigger oil and gas deposits, the West hopes to do even more lucrative business with what is described by many people as potentially the wealthiest country in Africa.

JOHN CHERIAN POLITICAL developments in Angola have proceeded at a hectic pace ever since the National Union for the Total Independence of Angola (UNITA) leader Jonas Savimbi was killed in February in a battlefield encounter. Savimbi had almost single-handedly thwarted efforts to bring peace to the war-ravaged country for more than three decades. Angola, a country with the potential to be among the richest in the world, was brought to it knees by the depredations of one man and his guerilla army. It has now become abundantly clear that Savimbi was the stumbling block to peace. Within weeks of his death the remnants of his guerilla army agreed to sign a peace agreement. The decision was taken in the last week of March, following cease-fire negotiations with the Angolan government in Luena, a town in eastern Angola. Jonas Savimbi, the slain UNITA leader. The remnants of his guerilla army agreed within weeks of his demise to sign a peace agreement with the Angola government.
