The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) is a country based in Central Africa. Also known as Congo-Kinshasa, the DR Congo should not be confused with the Republic of Congo, also known as Congo-Brazzaville, its neighbor to the west. It is the second largest country in Africa by geography and the fourth largest by population.

What are your thoughts on the Lobita Corridor, is it bad or good for the Congo?

https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cpq9jyv827do.amp

Does this make the situation in Congo worse, or neutral or does it benefit the Congo in anyway?

Is there a public education system in Congo?

My mother tells me everyone has to pay for school in the DRC (but she hasn’t lived there since the late 90s) is there really no public education system? And if not, how’s the current education system working?

Question about the boycotts

How far do the boycotts range? Recently for Black Friday I’ve been thinking about getting RAM sticks for laptop but I’m very conflicted due to everything going down in Congo. Would it be ethical or no?

How Is the Against Malaria Foundation Perceived in Congo?

I live in the US and give some amount of money annually to charity. The "Against Malaria Foundation" is popular for donors, because they are perceived as having a large impact at reducing the incidence of Malaria.

In Congo, is the foundation a well known name? Is it perceived positively?

Mobutu Sese Seko, then an army commander, in Kinshasa prior to the opening session of the parliament. A few days before, on 24 November 1965, he had seized power in a bloodless coup. He ruled the country for over 30 years, until being overthrown by rebels in 1997 (r/HistoryPorn)
