Relocated since last Tuesday in Maluku in the extreme East of Kinshasa, Brazzaville expelled trying all ways to survive. Most of them have nothing to do and swear by the return in their communities of origin. Others however engage in small businesses to meet their daily needs. All the more so since their arrival on the site until Friday, May 16, they have still not received food aid.

"If we compare between stage [Cardinal Malula where some of those expelled were first installed] and here, I think that there at least we ate. Here we do not eat, hungry. In addition, we have no money", testified a deportee.

These deportees say shortness of their strength. They receive so far nothing as food. Yet among them there are many families. "We are in total nine. We have seven children,"says a woman.

But to feed everyone, this woman who is still awaiting repatriation to native, said they found a solution:

"I have my small fortune restaurant to help expelled brothers. "It is the same job that I was doing in Brazzaville, here also I couldn't stay without doing anything..."

With 500 Congolese francs (1.6 US dollars), you can get a piece of fish mackerel to appease his hunger. But the amount is still not sufficient for all expelled in Maluku.

Furthermore, another woman, which might put long in this site asserts that this trade will help to survive:

"I have no place to go. My whole family is in Angola. My return after spending 10 years in Brazzaville, I found that the parcel was sold. I have six children and I don't know where to go. That's why I handle it to feed the children.

Resourcefulness seems to be the only way of survival for many people in this camp of the deported from Maluku.

At the site of Maluku, the Red Cross of the DRC has built two large hangars and tents. But they remain insufficient for almost 3 2 000 people. "What we have received from Ledya will suffice because if given to each, it will create frustrations among others", said Marita Masuengele, framework of the Red Cross of the DRC.

A mobile clinic is installed, since last Wednesday, to medical assistance in this site, where people live in total promiscuity. ANY DONATION CAN BE MADE AT www.horizonwonders.org Thank you.

A woman arrived at the scene 10 days ago with 5 children, says:

" We are all seized, we spend the night under the stars. When it rains, we cover with a chair or bucket. Sponges and children's clothes are all wet . I 've spread on the wall. We hope that there is sufficient sunlight to make it dry, otherwise we will have to spend the night on the floor with the kids. You see this child sleeping on the steps? This is my child, it has a year. This is his room, whether it is hot or cold, this is where he sleeps. "

Weather conditions threaten the health of the occupants of these two sites equipped for expelled Brazzaville. Dr. Nicole Ngumba of the Red Cross expressed concern about the DRC.

"There are a lot of risks of epidemic diseases such as cholera, typhoid fever, malaria, disease of dirty hands " , she says .

Most people who stay in these sites for several days are from other provinces or lack family in Kinshasa. The province of Bas-Congo last few days organizing the return of expelled from the province. Five cents from Lower Congo have already been renewed home. Several other people in the provinces are still waiting for help to return home. This is particularly the case from Ecuador for the vast majority.

Mobile clinics of the National Programme Emergency and Humanitarian Action Department of Health provide since 1 st May, medical care in these sites. But caregivers still lacks necessary equipment to ensure proper care of the sick.

In addition, mobile latrines were installed in these two sites. Health services also work there, says Micah Dominique Wando, Chief Disaster Management Division Red Cross to help expelled through donations from private and churches.

In the 5th of May, the government had identified 72,731 Congolese expelled from Brazzaville.

The International Organization for Migration (IOM), meanwhile, said that about five thousand citizens of the DRC are turned daily Brazzaville.

Police Congo Brazzaville leads from the April "Operation Mbata are mikolo" (slap elders, in French). Officially, this is intended to deport illegal aliens.
