Diplomatic Shock: Taiwan President Lai Ching-te has returned safely after a surprise trip to Eswatini, using an “arrive then announce” approach after Beijing pressure reportedly led three African states to revoke overflight permissions—Eswatini’s ties with Taipei were reaffirmed with a joint communique, keeping the spotlight on the kingdom’s unique position in Africa’s “One China” debate. Health & Tourism Reality Check: HIV prevention is moving fast but supplies are tight—Lenacapavir rollout in Eswatini is outpacing demand, with early stocks nearly depleted, a reminder that visitor growth needs resilient health systems. Local Growth: Manzini Mall Phase 2 is set to create up to 3,000 jobs, while e-Mali is expanding cashless payments for everyday services. Travel Safety Watch: Parents and teachers raised concerns about learners being released late from afternoon classes, leaving some stranded after dark. Regional Travel Infrastructure: South Africa unveiled a R12.5bn plan to overhaul six land borders, including Beitbridge, which could shape cross-border travel flows.
