Produktbeschreibung
Blantyre is Malawi's centre of finance and commerce and its largest city, by population, with an estimated 732,518 inhabitants as of 2008. It sometimes referred to as the commercial capital of Malawi as opposed to the political capital, Lilongwe. It is the capital of the country's Southern Region as well as the Blantyre District. The Malawi Broadcasting Corporation (MBC), the country's state broadcaster and the provider of Malawi's only television channel, has its headquarters in Blantyre. The Supreme Court is also located here. The city also houses the College of Medicine, the Malawi Polytechnic and the Kamuzu college of nursing, constituent colleges of the University of Malawi, located along the Chipembere highway. The rather unconventional location of the city has meant that Blantyre is overlooked by Mount Soche, Ndirande mountain, Chiradzulu mountain and Michiru mountain which consolidates the Michiru Mountain Conservation Area. Blantyre supports a small expatriate populationof about 25,000, mainly from England, the rest of Europe, and South Africa.
