The Best Attractions In Pointe Noire Department

Brazzaville - Pointe-Noire - Libreville - Luanda / Congo, Gabon, Angola / Central Africa

This video is about central Africa's booming cities in 2019. These are the cities to watch out for if you're an investor or businessman that's ready to tap into the central African market.

Brazzaville is the political and administrative capital of the Republic of Congo. It was also the capital of free France from 1940 to 1942. The city has a population of more than 1.9 million inhabitants and a density of 6, 963 pers./km2. Their official language is French, they use the central African franc. Brazzaville is investing heavily in its road and bridge infrastructure.

Pointe-Noire is the economic capital of the Republic of Congo, located in the extreme south of the country. With more than 1.1 million inhabitants in the agglomeration, Pointe-Noire has become a full-fledged department. Oil activity continues to be the main sector of the Pontenegrin economy. However, the city has been experiencing a real-estate boom in the past five years.

Libreville, the political capital of Gabon, is the first city of the country in number of inhabitants. Its population was estimated at 750,000 in 2017. Gabon’s national language is French. The Librevillois, as they’re called, enjoy a GDP per capita equal to 20,000 US dollars. They use the central African franc, capped at a two percent inflation rate. The city is undergoing a major makeover with the creation of a new business district on the artificial peninsula named La Baie Des Rois. The first skyscrapers are expected to rise this summer, while the overall project is set to be completed by 2025.

Luanda is the capital of the lusophone country of Angola. With a population of 7.4 million inhabitants, it is the main economic center of the country and concentrates tertiary and industrial activities. Since 2002, thanks to the civil peace found and the oil money from offshore deposits located near the capital, it has experienced a particularly significant growth in construction. The local currency is the Kwanza.

The Scenic Route To Congo | Travel Vlog

In December 2017 I moved to Congo for a new assignment as a humanitarian aid worker. This video tells my story of travelling to the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), sometimes also called the heart of darkness a term coined by Joseph Conrad and his bestselling book Heart Of Darkness.
Enjoy the ride!

Au beau milieu du noir : la vie sans courant au Congo (documentaire entier)

Abonnez-vous ▶

Romaric est né à Brazzaville, en République du Congo, mais il a grandi à Paris loin d’une problématique marquante : celle du manque quotidien d’électricité. Pour comprendre cette réalité de son pays natal, il y retourne après trente ans et va à la rencontre de Congolais qui témoignent de leur vie rythmée par une électricité qui fait défaut. Durant ce voyage, il quitte la capitale, visite des postes et des centrales électriques bâtis dans la savane et les villages, puis remonte le fil du courant jusqu’au grand barrage hydro-électrique d’Imboulou. L’un des problèmes majeurs du Congo est alors mis en lumière au travers du regard de Romaric, qui se réapproprie en même temps ses racines africaines..

Documentaire intégral Au beau milieu du noir, réalisé par Romaric Mienan.
