Tourism in Kasai Oriental: Challenges and prospects

Promoting the growth of the tourism industry in Kasayi Oriental, a landlocked province in the centre of the Democratic Republic of Congo, is without doubt the objective pursued by the author of this book. With the decentralisation of the country into 26 provinces, the tourism sector is set to become one of the major pillars of economic growth in the country's smallest province in terms of surface area (9,481 km2). In Kasayi Oriental, diamond mining (both industrial and artisanal) has revealed its limitations in terms of developing the province, so it is now up to us to develop a perspective that incorporates the post-mining issue. Tourism is the best alternative. M?dard Emmanuel Tambwe Mangala uses fact-based arguments to encourage readers to reflect on the concrete and real possibilities for transforming our potential into efficient wealth. As a connoisseur of the global tourism sector in recent decades, he explores and analyses the reality on the ground, which often escapes the untrained eye of most of us.
