		Bangui lies on the Northern bank of the Oubangui river, the largest tributary of the mighty Congo river, and on of Africa's longest rivers in its own right.
		At this stage we had exhausted the entertainment options of Bangui's principal commercial strip and so we decided to stroll around the edges of town to see if the natural beauty was a substitute for the thinness of the urban attractions.
		We had scarcely the courage to face another 11 days waiting in Bangui and even then there was no guarantee that we'd be granted the visas especially since the Khartoum government had just started a bombing campaign against UN bases in the South of the country and Western tourists might not be especially welcome.

		CEMI was established in June 2002 to ensure the proper holding of the municipal elections originally scheduled for the end of that year and postponed until 2003 by the Government.
		That work was nearing completion when the crisis broke out in Bangui: on 25 October 2002 the towns of Kabo, Batangafo, Bogangolo and Damara and, later, the capital, Bangui, were attacked by Bozizé’s forces with support from nationals of other countries.
		While it is hardly conceivable that forces of the regular Chadian army should have participated in the attack on Bangui, the Government in N’Djaména could not have been unaware of the preparations being made on its borders for a military offensive against towns in the Central African Republic.
