Sam posts an open letter to Andry Rajoelina written by Mamy Rakotondrainibe [1] that demands more transparency on the return of Daewoo Logistics in the economy of  Madagascar [2] [fr]. Mahefa Rakotomalala provides more context on this return [3] [fr]. The South Korean company is notorious for an attempted land grab deal [4]that provoked the fall of former president Ravalomanana. Other land deals are still supposedly in the work in Madagascar [5].
