“During times of rain, when the water level is high on the side of Andongoza, in the Rural Municipality of Morarano Gare, instead of taking the dugout canoe and walking 22 kilometers to Moramanga, many people prefer to make a detour of 70 km” states Innocent Patrick Randrianjafy, merchant in the fokontany of Marofody, Rural Municipality of Morarano Gare, District of Moramanga. But now, these are no more than bad memories as a culvert bridge has been built in Andongoza with the support Ambatovy. The company provided materials (cement, iron) and labor, while the Rural Municipality of Morarano Gare provided gravel, rubble and sand. By opening up the locality, this new road infrastructure will enable farmers to sell their agricultural products at the market, and will also enable the Basic Health Center of Marofody to quickly evacuate its patients to Moramanga. “Our collaboration with Ambatovy really contributes to the development of our Municipality and has direct positive impacts on the daily lives of its inhabitants,” admitted the Mayor of the Rural Municipality of Morarano Gare, Erick Landsteiner. Ambatovy has also technically and financially contributed to the updating of the 2015 Municipal Development Plan for the Rural Municipality of Morarano Gare.

The City hall of Morarano built with Ambatovy’s support
