Thomson Safaris step up their propaganda while
continuing the occupation of Maasai grazing land at their self-styled 'Enashiva
Nature Reserve' – and their land grab PR person since 2007 appears as a
graduate student in collaboration with The Nature Conservancy.
The Government through Tanzania National Parks
Authorities and later the Minister for Natural Resources and Tourism renews and
intensifies the threat of grabbing a 1,500sq km “wildlife corridor”. And on 26th
March 2013 the Government declares total war on the people of Loliondo.
To my
frustration I’ve not been able to return to Loliondo for over a year and a
half, but I’ve managed to obtain some information from a selection of very busy people. The information about
some issues is still incomplete, but I can’t wait any longer to publish this
ridiculously delayed update.
I did
publish some reports I got from NCA in a separate blog post.
