Tom Wright, Concern's Country Director describes situation in Mozambique, highlighting the difference in the response to floods in 2000, due to the preparedness of the government.

Illustrating how Concern is responding, Tom warns that the rains in March are traditionally the heaviest, so in the next few weeks, the situation could get worse.
