    The author expresses concern about people's obsession with imported goods, when locally produced alternatives are available and often better. Using the example of imported fish flown in from Europe, the author notes how importing goods unnecessarily pollutes the environment and wastes money. Locally caught fish in Maputo are of excellent quality and support the domestic economy and communities. The author advocates buying local Mozambican products to be healthier, help local industries and farmers, and reduce pollution from unnecessary imports.
