Detecting language using up to the first 30 seconds. Use `--language` to specify the language Detected language: French [00:00.000 --> 00:06.000] I'm really happy to see it, because when we were passing through the trains, there was a lot of traffic. [00:06.000 --> 00:11.000] Now, we have a lot of roads, people can travel in peace. [00:11.000 --> 00:16.000] If you have a means, you can take a means in Brazzaville, you arrive, it's a good thing. [00:16.000 --> 00:22.000] For me, it's because in the villages that are a bit enclosed, people have difficulties. [00:22.000 --> 00:27.000] There were difficulties to come and sell here in Pointe-en-Arc, but now, when there are roads, [00:27.000 --> 00:33.000] there is the facility, there is the facility to return the merchandise, either in Pointe-en-Arc or in Brazzaville. [00:33.000 --> 00:37.000] It's a good thing for the roads, we need roads, in Congo, that's it. [00:37.000 --> 00:39.000] In Ndjila, there is peace. [00:39.000 --> 00:43.000] In Ndjila, there is peace. [00:43.000 --> 00:47.000] In Pointe-en-Arc, in Brazzaville, there is peace. [00:47.000 --> 00:52.000] In Ndjila, there is peace. [00:52.000 --> 00:59.000] We have found, for example, to build cathedrals. [00:59.000 --> 01:01.000] We have found cathedrals, to build cathedrals. [01:01.000 --> 01:06.000] If you have money to buy, you have bunches. [01:06.000 --> 01:09.000] If you have money to buy, you have bunches. [01:09.000 --> 01:16.000] In Ndjila, we call it Bharasama, we call it Ndjila. [01:16.000 --> 01:21.000] In here, there are villages, there is a village,蓚 Dad구나. [01:21.000 --> 01:28.000] It's not a joke, it's true, it's true. [01:28.000 --> 01:36.000] A place, for example, was called by the drivers, Loba Verite, or literally, Tite la Verite. [01:36.000 --> 01:44.000] Loba Verite, the expression was born from the difficulties encountered by the motorists to climb this mountain. [01:44.000 --> 01:51.000] It was necessary to tell the truth, if your permit was true or false, follow my gaze. [01:51.000 --> 01:59.000] No damaged vehicles, no patients left without assistance, no damaged goods. [01:59.000 --> 01:48.560] Wisdom commanded the driver to slow down here, to stop there, and sometimes to go down to tighten the bolts, adjust the [01:48.560 --> 02:08.560] The wisdom commanded the driver to slow down here, to stop there, and sometimes to go down to tighten the bolts, adjust the [02:08.560 --> 02:19.560] It was necessary to be cured of the pain of hard blows to drive all night, drive all day, take the wheel all night and all day again. [02:19.560 --> 02:23.560] We really traveled in impossible conditions to believe. [02:23.560 --> 02:30.560] Before we could do the black point of Uizi, we could take at least 7 hours of time. [02:30.560 --> 02:34.560] Really now, even if it rains, there are no more problems. [02:34.560 --> 02:38.560] I am a driver, I do this road from the black point of Uizi, I drive very well. [02:38.560 --> 02:48.560] Except the behavior of our drivers, we tell them, you have to respect the panel a little so that you do your transport very well from the start to the destination. [02:48.560 --> 02:53.560] There are customers who are very in a hurry, you have to drive them a little fast. [02:53.560 --> 02:55.560] There are customers who say, no, no, go slowly, slowly. [02:55.560 --> 02:59.560] Otherwise, at most, if you respect everything, it's 3 hours of time in the taxi. [02:59.560 --> 03:03.560] But if you don't respect it, you drive a little fast, you can do 2 hours and 15 minutes. [03:03.560 --> 03:06.560] I have the ambition to do only 2 laps because I'm not in a hurry for the car. [03:06.560 --> 03:09.560] You have to try a little to keep the material for tomorrow. [03:09.560 --> 03:10.560] Do you go back and forth? [03:10.560 --> 03:12.560] I go back and forth in a day, yes. [03:12.560 --> 03:18.560] I can also sometimes do 3 laps, except that I don't want to do that to keep all the material. [03:18.560 --> 03:20.560] The road is very well done, very well done. [03:20.560 --> 03:24.560] We thank His Excellency Denis Assange for what he thought of us. [03:24.560 --> 03:31.560] To make us this beautiful road there, which will perhaps do at least 20 years later. [03:31.560 --> 03:37.560] But what I want to ask the political authorities and those who live in the country, [03:37.560 --> 03:42.560] that after the work, they leave a service of maintenance. [03:42.560 --> 03:46.560] That's what will make the road take a lot of time. [03:46.560 --> 03:49.560] Without maintenance, we must not collect anything. [03:49.560 --> 03:52.560] I do the road of Olisi-Pointe-Nord. [03:52.560 --> 03:58.560] I do less than 3 hours of time or 3 hours and 30 minutes of walking from Olisi-Pointe-Nord. [03:58.560 --> 04:01.560] I transport the passengers in my RAV4. [04:01.560 --> 04:04.560] The road is very good, it is well done. [04:04.560 --> 04:09.560] It's been 6 years since I've been on the road. [04:09.560 --> 04:15.560] When the road wasn't good yet, I still have the experience of the road. [04:15.560 --> 04:19.560] What I really appreciate is that the road is well done. [04:19.560 --> 04:23.560] I just have to draw the attention of my colleagues drivers. [04:23.560 --> 04:25.560] It's to drive slowly. [04:25.560 --> 04:32.560] I've already done a long distance chase in Congo, which is 365 kilometers. [04:32.560 --> 04:37.560] I've seen a lot of accidents on the road. [04:37.560 --> 04:41.560] Also, the road is still short from Olisi-Pointe-Nord. [04:41.560 --> 04:45.560] It can do 161 kilometers. [04:45.560 --> 04:49.560] It's a route that can be traveled at 2 hours and 1 hour and 30 minutes. [04:49.560 --> 04:53.560] But you have to respect the equipment, respect the passengers. [04:53.560 --> 04:57.560] It takes 3 hours and 3 hours and 30 minutes to get to Olisi-Pointe-Nord. [04:57.560 --> 05:02.560] I really appreciate the good work of the President of the Republic. [05:02.560 --> 05:06.560] We drive freely, we circulate freely. [05:06.560 --> 05:08.560] There is one thing. [05:08.560 --> 05:10.560] You have to respect the sign. [05:10.560 --> 05:12.560] You have to respect the turn. [05:12.560 --> 05:14.560] You can do even 20 years. [05:14.560 --> 05:17.560] And then we ask for maintenance on the road. [05:17.560 --> 05:24.560] The difficulties encountered by the workers and the engineers were such that they believed, sometimes wrongly or rightly, [05:24.560 --> 05:27.560] to have seriously dissatisfied the geniuses of the mountain. [05:27.560 --> 05:34.560] On this route, these geniuses would have stood up to remind the first arrivals that a beast of blood buys from its owner. [05:34.560 --> 05:40.560] Some loyalty has been accomplished in order to appease the geniuses and ask them for the possibility of defeating the Mayans. [05:40.560 --> 05:47.560] This is the whole point of the ritual organized on the falls of Monzololo, asking the guardian genius of the terroir to free the place [05:47.560 --> 05:55.560] to allow the Chinese to work without complications and to avoid very intense accidents in the area of the construction site on the first days of work. [05:55.560 --> 06:01.560] The greatest obstacle was a large stone, a shape that was cut for the needs of the cause, [06:01.560 --> 06:10.560] recomposing itself immediately the next morning, forcing the workers to repeat the same operation several times and several days, [06:10.560 --> 06:15.560] such as Penelope weaving her canvas or Sisyphe climbing her bridge. [06:15.560 --> 06:20.560] The report in this amazing landscape risks taking the form of a walk, [06:20.560 --> 06:26.560] so much so that it seems mysterious and inevitably attracts questioning and reflection, curiosity and envy. [06:26.560 --> 06:30.560] Nothing to say that could dispel the mystery. [06:30.560 --> 06:34.560] Researchers and scientists will one day give an answer to these questions. [06:34.560 --> 06:41.560] In the meantime, a certainty nevertheless is that Denis Asungesso has just won this natural humiliation [06:41.560 --> 06:47.560] by building a heavy road in the path that crosses the legendary and formidable mountains of the Mayans. [06:47.560 --> 06:53.560] The road, object of the pride of the Congolese, now turns proudly towards Brazzaville, [06:53.560 --> 06:56.560] which it will reach after a few years only. [06:56.560 --> 07:00.560] Would it be an exaggeration to say it? Certainly not. [07:00.560 --> 07:05.560] Indeed, it is a construction site that had with difficulty a particular proximity, [07:05.560 --> 07:09.560] a construction site on which the body could crack at one point or another. [07:09.560 --> 07:14.560] Thank God, there were a lot of difficulties to overcome, that's true, [07:14.560 --> 07:22.560] but at the same time we were stimulated by the interest of what we were doing and by the feeling that what we were doing had an importance. [07:22.560 --> 07:27.560] To do this, everyone was convinced that we should never let ourselves be overwhelmed by need, [07:27.560 --> 07:32.560] because by organizing well, we can face and resist its charge. [07:32.560 --> 07:40.560] For most of them, the end of the work is a moment of great emotion, just like leaving this site. [07:40.560 --> 07:43.560] It is the end of a moment where they lived together. [07:43.560 --> 07:48.560] They lived moments so intense, there was so much load, [07:48.560 --> 07:54.560] of personal demands, of each one's deployment, of collective works that each one is very marked. [07:54.560 --> 07:59.560] For them, of course, the Mayom will remain an unforgettable experience. [07:59.560 --> 08:04.560] In the daily organization of work, it was necessary to see at what pace the workers worked, [08:04.560 --> 08:10.560] at what pace the engineers were activated, at what rate the controllers were in a hurry, [08:10.560 --> 08:14.560] at what rate the machines were involved in monumental tasks, [08:14.560 --> 08:18.560] at what rate the machinists dug, ploughed or ploughed. [08:18.560 --> 08:23.560] With what enthusiasm each body of work provided all the measures of its talent, [08:23.560 --> 08:28.560] with what zeal, engine driver and maneuverer, master of work and master of work, [08:28.560 --> 08:34.560] if employed without rest, day and night, under the pouring rain or under the scorching sun, [08:34.560 --> 08:41.560] to undo the trap, to dismantle the goal, each trying as hard as he can to give the best of himself. [08:41.560 --> 08:44.560] It was really necessary to see. [08:44.560 --> 08:47.560] I would rather be the first to give thanks to God. [08:47.560 --> 08:53.560] Frankly, to have left us alive to see us accomplish these great works. [08:53.560 --> 08:59.560] Really, I thank the Lord because there are so many who dreamed, who thought to see this road, [08:59.560 --> 09:08.560] but today it is I who come to see this road, thanks to the work carried out by the President of the Association of the South. [09:08.560 --> 09:14.560] And who thought to overcome this great mountain which is the Mayong? [09:14.560 --> 09:21.560] So we can say, mission accomplished, perhaps, because we will arrive very soon in Tunisia. [09:21.560 --> 09:28.560] And to overcome the Mayong, who thought, frankly, to write the history of this country? [09:28.560 --> 09:34.560] And I believe that several heads of state also dreamed of realizing such a great work. [09:34.560 --> 09:39.560] Until then, we always thought that it was the way to do it. [09:39.560 --> 09:41.560] Today, we are here. [09:41.560 --> 09:45.560] Tomorrow, perhaps, it will be another road that you will see in this country. [09:45.560 --> 09:53.560] Obviously, there is little to have a feeling of satisfaction and to say thank you to the President of the Association of the South. [09:53.560 --> 09:56.560] In this regard, he dreamed, but he realized. [09:56.560 --> 10:03.560] And we, the population, the Congolese, we must really pay tribute to him. [10:03.560 --> 10:05.560] Thank him for this work. [10:05.560 --> 10:08.560] Many can think of it, but it takes a lot of courage. [10:08.560 --> 10:10.560] And also to have a team, of course. [10:10.560 --> 10:15.560] There is not only him, but there is the whole team who supported him, who were behind him. [10:15.560 --> 10:20.560] And also our brothers in China, who thought they could do it. [10:20.560 --> 10:25.560] Today, I am very happy and I am the first to be on this road. [10:25.560 --> 10:28.560] Certainly, we will say, but how did it happen? [10:28.560 --> 10:33.560] Many, it is so sweet, especially the young people, you will write on this road. [10:33.560 --> 10:38.560] As we see in our country of Africa, advanced as South Africa. [10:38.560 --> 10:39.560] And we are here. [10:39.560 --> 10:41.560] Tomorrow, it is a pride for us. [10:41.560 --> 10:44.560] At the same time, it is the man who is at the center of everything. [10:44.560 --> 10:47.560] It will be necessary for the Congolese to get to work. [10:47.560 --> 10:50.560] Do not always wait for assistance. [10:50.560 --> 10:52.560] Unfortunately, that's what we see in our country. [10:52.560 --> 10:55.560] Currently, everything must be free. [10:55.560 --> 10:58.560] But we think that, as we say, there is no sub-employment. [10:58.560 --> 11:01.560] There is no sub-employment, except that they are always as we say. [11:01.560 --> 11:03.560] Indeed, it is true. [11:03.560 --> 11:06.560] We have the road, but people will have to work. [11:06.560 --> 11:07.560] And the young people work. [11:07.560 --> 11:11.560] The president always talks about agriculture. [11:11.560 --> 11:20.560] Long ago, when we came here for some visits, the populations complained about the lack of the road. [11:20.560 --> 11:25.560] In the Sahara, or elsewhere, the Banda, they produced a lot of bananas. [11:25.560 --> 11:30.560] But they could not sell their bananas to Brazzaville or Pointe-d'Or. [11:30.560 --> 11:32.560] Sometimes, they block the road. [11:32.560 --> 11:33.560] Now, we have the road. [11:33.560 --> 11:37.560] But it will also be necessary for the young people to get to work. [11:37.560 --> 11:40.560] That we produce more to make these cities live. [11:40.560 --> 11:43.560] We also think that there will be fewer rural exodus. [11:43.560 --> 11:45.560] There will be young people who will settle down. [11:45.560 --> 11:48.560] Because the road will bring a lot of other work. [11:48.560 --> 11:53.560] It will bring other structures that will make the young people stay in their villages. [11:53.560 --> 11:56.560] On the 160-kilometre road today in Bitume, [11:56.560 --> 12:01.560] the Chinese company China State Construction Engineering Corporation [12:01.560 --> 12:05.560] has introduced powerful technical means to build the support walls, [12:05.560 --> 12:08.560] to remove millions of cubic meters of land, [12:08.560 --> 12:11.560] to cut down rubble and ground collapse, [12:11.560 --> 12:14.560] to control tree falls and soil movements, [12:14.560 --> 12:17.560] to build terraces of millions of cubic meters of tiles, [12:17.560 --> 12:20.560] to build bridges, dams and other works of art. [12:20.560 --> 12:27.560] In total, 299,441,000,000 CFA francs have been committed [12:27.560 --> 12:29.560] just for the first tranche. [12:29.560 --> 12:32.560] Yes, indeed, the first tranche is finished. [12:32.560 --> 12:34.560] It is already under circulation, [12:34.560 --> 12:36.560] since the enclosures are finished up to Dolisi. [12:36.560 --> 12:39.560] And for a little year, we have started mobilization [12:39.560 --> 12:41.560] on the Dolisi-Brazzaville tranche. [12:41.560 --> 12:43.560] And the work began about six months ago. [12:43.560 --> 12:47.560] I am Edip Rarius, I am the water chief [12:47.560 --> 12:52.560] of the control mission of the works between Pointe Noire and Malélé. [12:52.560 --> 12:55.560] So the tranche is 54 kilometers long, [12:55.560 --> 12:59.560] plus another 1,300 meters on the RN6 to make the other weighing station. [12:59.560 --> 13:04.560] We are here on the weighing station. [13:04.560 --> 13:08.560] So the station is composed of eight tracks. [13:08.560 --> 13:11.560] Four tracks in one direction, four tracks in the other. [13:11.560 --> 13:15.560] One track at the end for the heavy loads, [13:15.560 --> 13:19.560] which is more than 4.5 meters wide, [13:19.560 --> 13:24.560] to take into account the out-of-shape of the possible heavy loads. [13:24.560 --> 13:28.560] Plus three wires of 3 meters for light vehicles. [13:28.560 --> 13:31.560] Each station is semi-automated, [13:31.560 --> 13:34.560] that is to say that the barrier is automatic. [13:34.560 --> 13:40.560] The height under the pavilion is about 6 meters. [13:40.560 --> 13:45.560] With the administrative building, [13:45.560 --> 13:48.560] a pump building with the water tank, [13:48.560 --> 13:51.560] there will be a fire system, plus the water supply system, [13:51.560 --> 13:53.560] public toilets. [13:53.560 --> 13:57.560] Here we have a weighing station for the heavy loads, [13:57.560 --> 13:59.560] with the possible out-of-shape, [13:59.560 --> 14:02.560] the possible heavy loads of the heavy loads. [14:02.560 --> 14:05.560] The heavy loads that will be in the out-of-shape will be directed [14:05.560 --> 14:07.560] towards the parking lot to be unloaded. [14:07.560 --> 14:10.560] The electrical installation is done. [14:10.560 --> 14:13.560] At night, all the lights work. [14:13.560 --> 14:15.560] The barriers work. [14:15.560 --> 14:19.560] The users of this road that yesterday did not exist, [14:19.560 --> 14:22.560] they were not used to the toll booth. [14:22.560 --> 14:25.560] Does it promote a little with the installation of this great jewel? [14:25.560 --> 14:32.560] For the moment, it has never really worked for the vehicles. [14:32.560 --> 14:35.560] But I think we will have done all the signaling [14:35.560 --> 14:38.560] so that people get used to it. [14:38.560 --> 14:40.560] So it's true that there will be a little learning phase. [14:40.560 --> 14:42.560] There are already two tolls that exist, [14:42.560 --> 14:45.560] so people are beginning to understand the barrier system [14:45.560 --> 14:50.560] and to stop to settle the tax for driving. [14:50.560 --> 14:52.560] For me, there will be no problem. [14:52.560 --> 14:55.560] There will be a little learning, of course, [14:55.560 --> 14:58.560] but it is a phase that will not last very long. [14:58.560 --> 15:00.560] At the PK137 near Nvuthi, [15:00.560 --> 15:04.560] a 50-meter-long bridge with three trams was built. [15:04.560 --> 15:09.560] Nvuthi, one of the major towns crossed by National Road 1, [15:09.560 --> 15:14.560] would be called Nvuthi, a very famous tree in the region. [15:14.560 --> 15:18.560] Under this tree, the interviews between the colonial explorer [15:18.560 --> 15:22.560] and the landowner, the old manzimbu, would have taken place. [15:22.560 --> 15:25.560] The legend adds that it is a tree full of mystery, [15:25.560 --> 15:29.560] which, cut off the day before, was completely reconstructed the next day. [15:29.560 --> 15:32.560] This is the old Emil Makoso, originally from Madingokai, [15:32.560 --> 15:36.560] who, responding to the colons, would have indicated that he was talking under the Dibuthi, [15:36.560 --> 15:41.560] on which the white man concludes that the village he visited was called Nvuthi. [15:41.560 --> 15:44.560] Today, the little Nvuthi, yesterday simply a hunter's camp, [15:44.560 --> 15:49.560] has grown up, becoming a reference station on the Congo-Ocean Railway [15:49.560 --> 15:51.560] with its 4,000 inhabitants. [15:51.560 --> 15:56.560] But Nvuthi is also and is now a passage of the Pointe-Noire-Brazzaville road. [15:56.560 --> 15:59.560] Here, the old building, alas for the eyes, [15:59.560 --> 16:03.560] which housed the administrative services of the district, has been demolished. [16:03.560 --> 16:08.560] Instead, the President of the Republic has built a new sub-prefecture seat. [16:08.560 --> 16:13.560] There is also this room, as you said, for the construction of schools, [16:13.560 --> 16:18.560] of integrated health centers. [16:18.560 --> 16:23.560] And we also have the obligation, when we find that there is an administrative building [16:23.560 --> 16:27.560] that is in the way, we are obliged to break this building [16:27.560 --> 16:29.560] and build another one. [16:29.560 --> 16:33.560] It's like in Vuthi, you have seen the sub-prefecture of Vuthi, [16:33.560 --> 16:36.560] the building of the sub-prefecture is in our company, [16:36.560 --> 16:41.560] and we are obliged to do another project to build a new building for the sub-prefecture. [16:41.560 --> 16:47.560] We are less than 5 meters, 3 meters away from Quabon, [16:47.560 --> 16:52.560] to build a sub-prefecture where there will be trucks that will pass by. [16:52.560 --> 16:57.560] I have no other comment to make. The road is there. [16:57.560 --> 17:02.560] We, the Mayom population, are very relieved, really relieved, [17:02.560 --> 17:04.560] because the road is visible. [17:04.560 --> 17:09.560] To get to Pointe-Noire here, it was really, it was a crash. [17:09.560 --> 17:12.560] It was a crash. [17:12.560 --> 17:17.560] Before clearing the road, it was really difficult. [17:17.560 --> 17:22.560] Tell me, the road, we know it, is an important development factor. [17:22.560 --> 17:27.560] Here in Vuthi, how do you intend to contribute to the development of Congo [17:27.560 --> 17:31.560] through this road that now passes through Vuthi? [17:31.560 --> 17:36.560] Yes, the development... [17:36.560 --> 17:40.560] Our contribution is agriculture, in the first place. [17:40.560 --> 17:43.560] It's agriculture, because today we don't think... [17:43.560 --> 17:47.560] We have the forest, we have water. [17:47.560 --> 17:50.560] We can use everything for the development of the country, [17:50.560 --> 17:52.560] compared to the road, where it's the forest. [17:52.560 --> 17:54.560] In fact, it's agriculture, farming. [17:54.560 --> 17:57.560] What exactly do you do here in Vuthi? [17:57.560 --> 17:59.560] Well, here we do agriculture. [17:59.560 --> 18:00.560] What do you do yourself? [18:00.560 --> 18:03.560] I do agriculture and I do the artisanal sowing. [18:03.560 --> 18:05.560] I sow the land. [18:05.560 --> 18:09.560] Do the young people of Vuthi do the same as you? [18:09.560 --> 18:13.560] Yes, we are many. We are many to do, especially the sowing. [18:13.560 --> 18:21.560] Well, the planting, because we had a little difficulty to transport. [18:21.560 --> 18:23.560] There could be the ends of... [18:23.560 --> 18:26.560] be it banana stalks, everything, everything. [18:26.560 --> 18:29.560] But I think that with the road, it will work. [18:29.560 --> 18:32.560] But now, we are young. [18:32.560 --> 18:34.560] We are many to do the artisanal sowing. [18:34.560 --> 18:36.560] So the road is visible today. [18:36.560 --> 18:39.560] It allows you to easily sow your products. [18:39.560 --> 18:42.560] And so, your feeling about that? [18:42.560 --> 18:45.560] Are you happy about that? Relieved? [18:45.560 --> 18:47.560] In any case, the feelings are huge. [18:47.560 --> 18:49.560] We are so delighted. [18:49.560 --> 18:53.560] Our young people of Vuthi, in fact, they are thinking. [18:53.560 --> 18:55.560] The road, today, it's done. [18:55.560 --> 18:57.560] The president made it for us. [18:57.560 --> 19:01.560] It's a jewel, because it goes directly to our village. [19:01.560 --> 19:04.560] So, in our village. [19:04.560 --> 19:10.560] So for us, it was a dream come true today. [19:10.560 --> 19:13.560] We didn't even know, because I am a native of Vuthi. [19:13.560 --> 19:15.560] I was born in Vuthi. [19:15.560 --> 19:19.560] We didn't even think one day that we would see the road at home in Vuthi. [19:19.560 --> 19:22.560] In Votha, it was really a dream. [19:22.560 --> 19:24.560] It was really a dream. [19:24.560 --> 19:28.560] So that's why I say that we have to think. [19:28.560 --> 19:36.560] First of all, I support the project of the president of Inissassongueso. [19:36.560 --> 19:38.560] The road to the future. [19:38.560 --> 19:46.560] Because with the road to the future, our population seems to be relieved. [19:46.560 --> 19:51.560] In fact, relieved, because today, compared to yesterday's life, [19:51.560 --> 19:55.560] there is a huge change. [19:55.560 --> 20:00.560] Yesterday, the population had difficulties to move. [20:00.560 --> 20:04.560] Today, with the presence of the road, the inhabitants of Mayombe, [20:04.560 --> 20:09.560] who had difficulties to move. [20:09.560 --> 20:12.560] Today, they move easily. [20:12.560 --> 20:16.560] Especially for businessmen. [20:16.560 --> 20:18.560] I am very happy with everything that is happening. [20:18.560 --> 20:24.560] Everything that the president is doing as a project in our country. [20:24.560 --> 20:28.560] You say that today the population moves better compared to before. [20:28.560 --> 20:30.560] But there was the railway too. [20:30.560 --> 20:33.560] So it didn't really help the population. [20:33.560 --> 20:35.560] What do you want? [20:35.560 --> 20:43.560] We can't criticize the old woman because we had the new one. [20:43.560 --> 20:45.560] But for the railway, I have concerns. [20:45.560 --> 20:51.560] I don't know if the railway will live up to before. [20:51.560 --> 20:59.560] After the 1980s, when the blue train and the sun train were created, [20:59.560 --> 21:05.560] really, especially today, travelers are not even interested in the train. [21:05.560 --> 21:10.560] Because in my childhood, when we traveled with the ABJ train, [21:10.560 --> 21:15.560] the Congolese traveled freely. [21:15.560 --> 21:20.560] Today, with the road, the traveler decides when he wants. [21:20.560 --> 21:22.560] And he travels freely. [21:22.560 --> 21:25.560] Eight bridges have been erected along the trance. [21:25.560 --> 21:28.560] The one in Maseka, on the upper passage of the CEF-CEIO, [21:28.560 --> 21:31.560] has been executed in the dimensions of the railway, [21:31.560 --> 21:34.560] with the possibility of allowing the doubling of the railway. [21:34.560 --> 21:39.560] The several-hour road trip is also an opportunity to establish contact with the population, [21:39.560 --> 21:42.560] despite the number of localities that challenge the route [21:42.560 --> 21:46.560] and on the outskirts of which a large part of the inhabitants will concentrate. [21:46.560 --> 21:53.560] These villages named Maseka, Vouti, Lesara, Lebanda, I forget some of them. [21:53.560 --> 21:56.560] So many stages where the transit will be uninterrupted, [21:56.560 --> 21:59.560] to the point of making daily theater a great animation. [21:59.560 --> 22:06.560] Women and men selling vegetables and fruits like pineapple, banana, coconut, [22:06.560 --> 22:12.560] quantity of manioc, papaya, mango, safu and other products in detail, [22:12.560 --> 22:15.560] or even local craft products. [22:15.560 --> 22:21.560] The point of view of our evolution in a village, [22:21.560 --> 22:24.560] on the side of circulation, [22:24.560 --> 22:30.560] is an opportunity to bring out our products. [22:30.560 --> 22:34.560] There are many advantages because there is the right, the truck passes, [22:34.560 --> 22:39.560] any time you can sell until tomorrow morning, people pass. [22:39.560 --> 22:45.560] The truck can arrive here, it stops there, the wine passes. [22:45.560 --> 22:50.560] If you earn less than 15,000 in the day, it's already a lot. [22:50.560 --> 22:55.560] It's for my mother-in-law, at least 15 bags per day. [22:55.560 --> 22:58.560] And how much do you sell per day? [22:58.560 --> 23:01.560] At least 250. [23:01.560 --> 23:06.560] Today, it started to please me because of the road that the Chinese are doing. [23:06.560 --> 23:10.560] It really makes a lot of fun. [23:10.560 --> 23:15.560] Because I can even take the Diakarta, if I have enough money, I can even go back. [23:15.560 --> 23:17.560] So it's a great honor for you, [23:17.560 --> 23:21.560] but for someone who made it possible for you to easily use this road. [23:21.560 --> 23:24.560] What do you say to this person? [23:24.560 --> 23:27.560] Thank you very much for this person. [23:27.560 --> 23:30.560] This is our president, Denis Sassou Nguesso. [23:30.560 --> 23:32.560] Really, he did well for the road. [23:32.560 --> 23:36.560] He's a really good president. [23:36.560 --> 23:39.560] He really deserves to command the Congo. [23:39.560 --> 23:43.560] Not everyone can do that because there are a lot of presidents who have passed here in the Congo. [23:43.560 --> 23:46.560] They can't do it here. [23:46.560 --> 23:50.560] But we still have to applaud our president, Sassou. [23:50.560 --> 23:53.560] We still have to applaud our president, Sassou. [23:53.560 --> 23:56.560] Because before, in Montkama, if there was no road, [23:56.560 --> 24:02.560] there was a lot of mud, crows singing, music. [24:02.560 --> 24:04.560] That's how it makes harmony. [24:04.560 --> 24:06.560] Look at yourself. [24:06.560 --> 24:10.560] From Pointe-Noire to Broisaville, you can even take your Diakarta. [24:10.560 --> 24:12.560] You can even put your girlfriend or your wife behind you. [24:12.560 --> 24:15.560] You can easily go to Broisaville. [24:15.560 --> 24:19.560] We still have to thank our president, Denis Sassou Nguesso. [24:19.560 --> 24:24.560] Really, that's all I wanted to say. [24:24.560 --> 24:26.560] That's it. [24:26.560 --> 24:30.560] If you have any other questions, you can ask. [24:30.560 --> 24:33.560] No, unless you have something else to tell us. [24:33.560 --> 24:35.560] No, I don't have anything to say. [24:35.560 --> 24:37.560] I've already said my things. [24:37.560 --> 24:39.560] Thank you very much. [24:39.560 --> 24:40.560] Hello. [24:40.560 --> 24:41.560] Your name? [24:41.560 --> 24:43.560] It's Veli Nonsatou. [24:43.560 --> 24:45.560] You're here in this market. [24:45.560 --> 24:46.560] How long have you been selling? [24:46.560 --> 24:49.560] It's been two weeks. [24:49.560 --> 24:51.560] Tell me, has this market been around for a long time? [24:51.560 --> 24:56.560] It's been six months already. [24:56.560 --> 25:04.560] Does that mean that this market was created after the road was built between Pointe-Noire and Broisaville? [25:04.560 --> 25:05.560] Yes. [25:05.560 --> 25:07.560] What are the advantages that you have here? [25:07.560 --> 25:10.560] The trucks are now stopping there. [25:10.560 --> 25:14.560] There are also the vehicles going to Doulouzie, Pointe-Noire, Doulouzie. [25:14.560 --> 25:17.560] When they come here, they buy things here. [25:17.560 --> 25:21.560] That's our advantage for this road, isn't it? [25:21.560 --> 25:30.560] What are you doing to provide for yourselves here? [25:30.560 --> 25:33.560] Tell me, the road has been built. [25:33.560 --> 25:35.560] It's advantageous for all of us. [25:35.560 --> 25:38.560] What do you say to the initiator of the project? [25:38.560 --> 25:42.560] Yes, we ask for thanks. [25:42.560 --> 25:44.560] To the one who gave us the project. [25:44.560 --> 25:46.560] We can improve this road. [25:46.560 --> 25:53.560] We ask the head of the state for what he did to keep the road here. [25:53.560 --> 25:55.560] We ask him for thanks, really. [25:55.560 --> 25:57.560] It makes us very happy. [25:57.560 --> 26:01.560] In order to maintain this road, two toll posts have been erected, [26:01.560 --> 26:05.560] respectively Amengo in the Cuillou and Moucondo in the Niare. [26:05.560 --> 26:10.560] Each has a toll post to control the tonnage of vehicles. [26:10.560 --> 26:14.560] The construction of the Pointe-Noire-Brasaville road already produces induced effects [26:14.560 --> 26:17.560] in the main villages crossed, [26:17.560 --> 26:21.560] in particular Pandila and Ponga, 44 km from Pointe-Noire, [26:21.560 --> 26:24.560] where the President of the Republic has built a health center. [26:24.560 --> 26:28.560] Destined to provide quality care to local populations, [26:28.560 --> 26:33.560] this dispensary has a medical unit and an administrative building. [26:33.560 --> 26:36.560] In the village of Ponga, in particular, [26:36.560 --> 26:40.560] a new building comes to strengthen the capacity of the primary school. [26:40.560 --> 26:44.560] It includes three classrooms to which a health unit is added. [26:44.560 --> 26:46.560] A huge relief. [26:46.560 --> 26:51.560] Yes, it is a contract between the Congolese state and the Chinese company [26:51.560 --> 26:53.560] which is considering the road. [26:53.560 --> 26:57.560] They wanted to give us this jewel for our establishment. [26:57.560 --> 27:00.560] Speaking for myself, I am really very happy. [27:00.560 --> 27:03.560] Really, the staff are also very, very happy. [27:03.560 --> 27:05.560] We really have to keep our building. [27:05.560 --> 27:09.560] We must not dirty it, we must not destroy it. [27:09.560 --> 27:11.560] Because it is a beautiful jewel. [27:11.560 --> 27:13.560] We did not expect that. [27:13.560 --> 27:15.560] We really have this beautiful jewel. [27:15.560 --> 27:16.560] We cannot waste it. [27:16.560 --> 27:19.560] I really thank the President of the Republic. [27:19.560 --> 27:25.560] Finally, after two hours of travel, the vehicle reaches Dolis. [27:25.560 --> 27:28.560] Yes, I am Mr. Tatiola, [27:28.560 --> 27:30.560] the coordinator of the road station in Dolisie. [27:30.560 --> 27:33.560] You are the coordinator of the road station, [27:33.560 --> 27:36.560] so you have from time to time interviews [27:36.560 --> 27:39.560] with people who often take the road. [27:39.560 --> 27:41.560] What do they say to you now? [27:41.560 --> 27:45.560] Now, compared to the passengers who travel to Dolisie, [27:45.560 --> 27:47.560] Nkai, Sibiti, everywhere, [27:47.560 --> 27:52.560] they say that our company is making great efforts, [27:52.560 --> 27:54.560] even big efforts, [27:54.560 --> 27:57.560] because before we had junkyards. [27:57.560 --> 28:00.560] For them, Dolisie can make a return trip. [28:00.560 --> 28:04.560] Something that was not possible before. [28:04.560 --> 28:09.560] So we say to ourselves that with the launch of the future road, [28:09.560 --> 28:12.560] I think that the President has made great efforts. [28:12.560 --> 28:18.560] Because even here, it is a road station that competes with the road. [28:18.560 --> 28:22.560] So we also pronounce ourselves as the road to the future, Congo forward. [28:22.560 --> 28:26.560] We are given big bravos, big bravos, [28:26.560 --> 28:30.560] and then a great encouragement so that tomorrow, [28:30.560 --> 28:35.560] as there is already a launch of work for Dolisie and Nkai, [28:35.560 --> 28:38.560] I think that's what I can say. [28:38.560 --> 28:40.560] And big thanks to the President. [28:40.560 --> 28:44.560] And I also give information to the Congolese population [28:44.560 --> 28:46.560] who want to travel freely, [28:46.560 --> 28:49.560] to come and discover the way of the Mayombe. [28:49.560 --> 28:54.560] City located in the Ngari Valley, 379 km west of Brazzaville, [28:54.560 --> 28:58.560] third in the country due to its demographic and economic importance, [28:58.560 --> 29:00.560] the city of wood and forest, [29:00.560 --> 29:04.560] Dolisie is also the city where the High School of Mbunda was built, [29:04.560 --> 29:08.560] a building to which the most deserving students of our country will access. [29:08.560 --> 29:13.560] Mbunda is also the school that the President Denis Asungesu attended. [29:13.560 --> 29:18.560] At that time, the students of Mbunda recreated themselves in specific symbolic places, [29:18.560 --> 29:21.560] like this tree that seems to have existed in time.
