    I am a congolese living in exile and it makes me shed my tears to see this. How can a country fails one to five decades with such a lot of richness. My fellow congolese should have resilience bcs no other option. their way of life is far cry from the neighbouring country.

    Almost 30 years ago I traveled by boat on the Congo river. I was not a usual sailor but as I was part of the commercial crew of that boat I had a comfortable cabin albeit below water level. Watching the passengers on an open barge without railings was very difficult. However there was such a good spirit and joie de vivre despite the difficult conditions that is very difficult for westerners to understand

    This fabulous well made documentary was amazing to see for me. The reason being that I had travelled the entire length of three continents from the top of North America to the bottom of South America and by sea to travel all of Europe. This was a three year journey from 1988 to 1990. The intention was to travel across Africa and to take my 1969 VW campervan on a barge up the Congo River to South Africa and back north again along the Nile River to Cairo. I was only one day's drive from reaching Africa when disaster happened. My VW campervan was stolen in Seville Spain which of course put an end to the dream of crossing Africa but judging from this doco I somehow think that my VW van would not have made it onto a Congolese barge or driving on those muddy roads of Africa even though I did experience all that while I was crossing the jungles of Brazil and I did manage to get my VW on a barge down the Amazon River.
    Thank you for this wonderful documentary which I watch thirty years later after my original journey.

They search at low tide for pieces of coral and rocks to slow the erosion, but they can't find enough to make a difference. These shells will hold for a long time and they are friendly for other life forms to live on and with. I love how rescourceful the people are. The strength and courage is boundless.
