Plot: In 1920, rural Ireland is the vicious battlefield of republican rebels against the British security forces and Irish Unionist population who oppose them, a recipe for mutual cruelty. Medical graduate Damien O'Donovan always gave priority to his socialist ideals and simply helping people in need. Just when he's leaving Ireland to work in a highly reputed London hospital, witnessing gross abuse of commoners changes his mind. he returns and joins the local IRA brigade, commanded by his brother Teddy, and adopts the merciless logic of civil war, while Teddy mellows by experiencing first-hand endless suffering. When IRA leaders negotiate an autonomous Free State under the British crown, Teddy defends the pragmatic best possible deal at this stage. Damien however joins the large seceding faction which holds nothing less then a socialist republic will do. The result is another civil war, bloodily opposing former Irish comrades in arms, even the brothers.

Congo Launches Agri-business Park In Move To Revamp Farming
Democratic Republic of Congo has launched its first agricultural business park, the initial step in a plan to use its vast tracts of arable land to produce food, create jobs and wean the economy off its dependence on mining.
Congo has 80 million hectares of arable land and some 70 percent of the population works in farming but most are involved in subsistence agriculture and the country spent $1.5 billion on food imports last year.
The program hinges on Congo overcoming its reputation for being one of the trickiest business environments and reversing the current trend for agriculture's contribution to the economy declining as the mining sector expands.

Leadership From Within Is Key To Congo's Economic Growth
Jean Jacques Purusi
Sadiki of the
Democratic Republic of Congo's
Ministry of Employment,
Labor, and
Social Welfare, says his country has all the natural resources it needs to create jobs and a strong economy -- but a lack of leadership gets in the way.
Good governance, combating impunity, and the rule of law are all lacking in the
DRC he says, but will only be solved by action from within the country -- not by the
United Nations or other countries.
He cites
Liberia as an example of how a country can fix its own economic issues through good leadership. One place the DRC may find this leadership is in its diaspora of 7 million Congolese living abroad. 90 percent of these people have at least a master's degree, and some are returning to help the country grow.

South Africa is preparing to help the

In a suburb of Johannesburg, this company is already reaping the benefits from the sudden political upheaval in the former Zaire.
Staff at the factory are busy working to meet the demand for the new Democratic Republic of Congo's flag.
A U-N spokesman confirmed this week
President Kabila's wish for the national flag to revert to the one used when the former
Belgian colony was granted independence in June 1960.
The old
Congo flag being made in South Africa is a blue field bearing a yellow star in the upper left corner and a yellow-bordered red stripe running from the lower left corner to the upper right corner.
Orders for the new flag have even come from the former
Zairean embassy.
SOUNDBITE: (

"We have had people from the new embassy or what was the Zairean
embassy, now the embassy of the Democratic Republic of Congo
buying the flag. So we are pretty convinced that this will be the flag."
SUPER CAPTION:

National Flags
The first batch of
100 flags went on sale in South Africa this week, and orders are expected to keep coming in.
Independent Congo's first flag -- displayed by Kabila's rebels since the early stages of their guerrilla campaign -- is mainly blue and yellow.
It has one large star in the centre and six smaller stars representing its six original provinces.
As the new government is set up, South Africa has formed a working group to look at what kind of help can be offered to the new Democratic Republic of Congo.
South Africa, which spear headed the
peace efforts between the two sides, is now hinting at a key role in establishing stability in the region.
But
Deputy Foreign Affairs Minister Aziz Pahad, addressing reporters on Thursday, said any aid would have to be part of an international effort.
SOUNDBITE: (
English)
"We will consider sending some experts to the Democratic Republic of Congo to see and discuss with them the nature of their problems and see what can be done. But South Africa on its own cannot help solve the very fundamental problems of the Democratic Republic of Congo. It has to be a multinational effort."
SUPER CAPTION: Aziz Pahad,
South African Deputy Foreign Affairs Minister
In the new Democratic Republic of Congo, the country's new leader,
Laurent Kabila, has consolidated his power by scrapping the post of prime minister.
But rather than winning sympathy from the
West, such actions could re-ignite fears of a new era in strongman dictatorship in
Africa.

Congo Launches Agri-business Park In Move To Revamp Farming

...
Democratic Republic of Congo has launched its first agricultural business park, the initial step in a plan to use its vast tracts of arable land to produce food, create jobs and wean the economy off its dependence on mining.
Congo has 80 million hectares of arable land and some 70 percent of the population works in farming but most are involved in subsistence agriculture and the country spent $1.5 billion on food imports last year.
The program hinges on Congo overcoming its reputation for being one of the trickiest business environments and reversing the current trend for agriculture's contribution to the economy declining as the mining sector expands.

Leadership From Within Is Key To Congo's Economic Growth
videos
Jean Jacques Purusi
Sadiki of the
Democratic Republic of Congo's
Ministry of Employment,
Labor, and
Social Welfare, says his country has all the natural resources it needs to create jobs and a strong economy -- but a lack of leadership gets in the way.
Good governance, combating impunity, and the rule of law are all lacking in the
DRC he says, but will only be solved by action from within the country -- not by the
United Nations or other countries.
He cites
Liberia as an example of how a country can fix its own economic issues through good leadership. One place the DRC may find this leadership is in its diaspora of 7 million Congolese living abroad. 90 percent of these people have at least a master's degree, and some are returning to help the country grow.
