Le Malawi met en vente son jet présidentiel



A vendre: jet présidentiel, 15 ans. Parfait état de vol. 10 millions d'euros. Contacter le Malawi pour plus de détails.

Afin de faire des économies et récupérer des devises, le Malawi a annoncé lundi la mise en vente par appel d'offres du jet présidentiel de la chef d'Etat Joyce Banda.

"Le gouvernement du Malawi a décidé de vendre le jet +en l'état+ à toute personne ou société intéressée", a déclaré la présidence dans un avis d'appel d'offres.

Le Dassault Falcon 900EX, construit en 1998 et qui a une capacité de 14 passagers, est en "parfait état de vol", est-il précisé.

L'appel d'offres sera lancé le 20 février.

Le jet était devenu un symbole de l'autocratie et des dérives de l'ancien président Bingu wa Mutharika, décédé en avril. L'achat de l'avion il y a cinq ans avait fait scandale dans un pays où 40% des 13 millions d'habitants vivent avec moins d'un dollar par jour.

A l'époque, Mutharika avait assuré que l'appareil était "peu onéreux", alors même que son pays dépend de l'aide internationale pour la moitié de son budget.

Après cet achat, la Grande-Bretagne, ancienne puissance coloniale et principal donateur du Malawi, avait réduit de 3 millions de livres son aide.

Lorsqu'elle a succédé à Mutharika, la présidente Joyce Banda avait promis de vendre le jet dans le cadre de baisses des dépenses gouvernementales.
