Check out this fantastic movie at: http://congo-river.com/ 4 Mar 2006 at 7:00pm 2 min - Mar 5, 2006 In early 1973 I was reading an article on Dian Fossey?s work with gorillas in the highland jungle where Uganda, Rwanda and Congo come together. I was intrigued. I decided to visit her during my school break. I visited this beautiful region of Africa that summer. After two days trekking through the mountains of the mist, I saw gorillas in their natural habitat. It was a memorable experience. In late 2002, I returned to this region with my wife Olga, a photojournalist, to see to changes brought by these past 29 years. Immediately on arriving in Uganda, we set out in our Land rover toward the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, home of one group of wild gorillas. By the end of the first day I was in shock. The great forests of Central Africa are virtually gone ? not just thinned out ? but gone - almost everywhere except the few parks where they are protected. Terraced agriculture has replaced the hilltop forests. With the forests went the wildlife. Fuel and food are the basic realities of life for a hungry, desperate people. How can you blame them? As hard as it is to believe, the Congolese people I met in 2002 are, for the most part, worse off than they were under Mobutu?s shameful rule in 1973. We did meet some remarkable African men and women. Why is there so little interest or concern? This trailer is our start to answer these questions in documentary form. 2 Jul 2007 at 6:49am ![]() 9 min - Jul 2, 2007 Baloji : Congo music video 4 Apr 2008 at 3:00am 1 hr 32 min - Apr 4, 2008 White King, Red Rubber = Black Death.

All sounds recorded on locations. 14 May 2007 at 9:19pm 2 min - May 15, 2007 he director, Frank Marshall, who has produced films for Steven Spielberg, gets his own Michael Crichton book to play with-and the results are disastrous. To be fair, "Congo" wasn't much of a book, either-a talking gorilla, super satellites, diamond mines, killer apes, earthquakes-it was Jules Verne meets "Planet of the Apes." The film strands the actors in a sea of silly dialogue (although Tim Curry, cast as a Romanian philanthropist, seems to be having a little fun with the whole mess), and Marshall, who has directed some nifty films ("Arachnophobia," "Alive"), doesn't know where the comedy ends and the adventure begins. The film received some of the worst reviews of the summer, but audiences Congo-lined up anyway. It's a testament to Crichton's dubious popularity-the movie isn't funny or exciting. 9 May 2008 at 9:48pm 9 min - May 10, 2008 Baloji : Congo Music Clip 16 May 2008 at 10:32am 16 min - May 16, 2008 10 min Vodacom Congo In the late 1990's, international experts predicted there would be a market for only 10,000 cell phones in all of Congo. The day Alieu Conteh launched his cell phone company, he had capacity for 4,000 customers, but 35,000 people lined up. In less than five years he broke the one million mark. Alieu promised a telephone would no longer be a luxury in Congo. When Alieu came out with a $2 card, he revolutionized the market and tripled his sales. Alieu brought cell phone s... 12 Dec 2006 at 7:00pm 2 min - Dec 13, 2006 my review of Congo by Michael Crichton 6 Sep 2007 at 2:08pm ![]() 21 min - Sep 6, 2007 May 2006 The West's demand for Cassiterite is fuelling the killings in Congo. Militias rely on slave labour to extract the ore, forcing locals to work in sub-human conditions. "Once you get down there, there's no air", describes one worker. "The rocks often bury us and you have to crawl through the tiny hole, using your fingers to dig." Labourers like him often go unpaid. They're forced to work at gunpoint by militias operating outside the control of the government. "Different armed groups do what they want with the population", laments minister Buta Muiso. But British businessman Ketankumar Kotecha sees nothing wrong in buying casiterite from the militias. "If I didn't do it, someone else would. I am not here as some kind of moral saviour." 29 Aug 2006 at 8:00pm 30 min - Aug 30, 2006 A visit to one of several refugees? camp in Congo Brazzaville with Cabindan citizens forced to flee the Republic of Cabinda due to the brutal occupation of the Cabinda by the foreign Angolan MPLA Armed Forces funded by Chevron Texaco. 3 Jan 2007 at 2:29pm ![]() 7 min - Jan 3, 2007 Filmed during the week of the historic 2006 national elections in Democratic Republic of Congo, this video highlights the work of the NGO, The Forum for Early Warning and Early Response (FEWER), and its local partners in the Ituri region of eastern Congo.
