RDC: la ville de Kisangani privée d’eau potable et d’électricité

Dans le nord de la RDC, la ville de Kisangani est sans électricité depuis le jeudi 9 novembre. En cause une crue du fleuve Congo et de la rivière Tshopo qui ont provoqué une inondation de la centrale hydroelectrique qui alimente la ville. Les équipes de la SNEL, la Société nationale d’électricité, devraient mettre plusieurs jours pour permettre un retour à la normale. La ville d’1 million 300 000 habitants n’avait pas connu de telle panne depuis 20 ans et cela pose de gros problèmes, avec des risques en matière de santé et de sécurité, selon le maire de la ville, Augustin Osumaka.

Interrogé par RFI, le maire de Kisangani insiste sur la question de l’approvisionnement en eau potable. « Sans courant, il n’y a pas de distribution d’eau au niveau des ménages, c’est le grand problème que nous avons ! Nous sortons d’une réunion de crise et on a trouvé une solution palliative : on nous a dotés d’un générateur de grande puissance qui puisse alimenter la régie des eaux afin que l’on puisse distribuer de l’eau aux ménages  ».

« Kisangani est une ville traversée par des rivières, des ruisseaux et le fleuve Congo : nous craignons que la population soit infectée par les maladies hydriques », rappelle le maire qui invite à la prudence dans la consommation de l’eau : il faut utiliser des produits chlorés pour purifier l’eau et des de&avant de la consommer, prendre des produits chlorés et des aquatabs [pastilles pour purifier l’eau], en vente dans les boutiques.

Aucune préoccupation, la sécurité

« Concernant la sécurité, les services d’intelligence veille à ce que des malfrats ne profitent de l’obscurité qui règne dans la ville… tous les services sont aux aguets pour éviter tout dérapage », assure le maire.

«  Selon les techniciens de la SNEL, nous osons croire que la situation sera rétablie d’ici une semaine ».

  1. Between me and my husband we’ve owned more MP3 players over the years than I can count, including Sansas, iRivers, iPods (classic & touch), the Ibiza Rhapsody, etc. But, the last few years I’ve settled down to one line of players. Why? Because I was happy to discover how well-designed and fun to use the underappreciated (and widely mocked) Zunes are.

  2. Zune and iPod: Most people compare the Zune to the Touch, but after seeing how slim and surprisingly small and light it is, I consider it to be a rather unique hybrid that combines qualities of both the Touch and the Nano. It’s very colorful and lovely OLED screen is slightly smaller than the touch screen, but the player itself feels quite a bit smaller and lighter. It weighs about 2/3 as much, and is noticeably smaller in width and height, while being just a hair thicker.

  3. The new Zune browser is surprisingly good, but not as good as the iPod’s. It works well, but isn’t as fast as Safari, and has a clunkier interface. If you occasionally plan on using the web browser that’s not an issue, but if you’re planning to browse the web alot from your PMP then the iPod’s larger screen and better browser may be important.

  4. Apple now has Rhapsody as an app, which is a great start, but it is currently hampered by the inability to store locally on your iPod, and has a dismal 64kbps bit rate. If this changes, then it will somewhat negate this advantage for the Zune, but the 10 songs per month will still be a big plus in Zune Pass’ favor.

  6. This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like ‘Mixview’ that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you’re listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of “neighbors” will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune “Social” is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.

  10. I¡¦ve learn some just right stuff here. Definitely value bookmarking for revisiting. I wonder how so much effort you place to create such a excellent informative website.

  13. What i do not understood is actually how you are now not really a lot more smartly-preferred than you may be now. You’re very intelligent. You know thus considerably on the subject of this matter, made me personally consider it from so many various angles. Its like men and women are not fascinated unless it¡¦s something to do with Woman gaga! Your individual stuffs outstanding. At all times handle it up!

  14. The Zune concentrates on staying a Portable Media Player. Not a internet browser. Not a recreation machine. Probably in the future it’s going to do even greater in just those people areas, but for at this time it can be a remarkable path toward organize and listen toward your music and videos, and is with no peer within that respect. The iPod’s rewards are its net viewing and apps. If people sound further more powerful, potentially it is your best decision.
