DRC at a Boiling Point · Global Voices
Alice Backer

Over at UDPS Liege, blogger J. Kayembe Tshipamba lists  (FR) all the reasons why he believes the DRC is headed towards an era reminiscent of the Mobutu years:  free speech issues as evidenced by the repressed March 10 opposition protest; the presence of Rwandan mercenaries; the parcelling of the DRC in 26 provinces; issues with freedom of the press mishandled by the government and poor leadership by key government figures to name a few.  He also deplores the role played by the UN.
