Dear TE friend this is Bié and this province of Angola was devastated by the war, conflicts between the rebels of Unita and government MPLA reached literately less than 100 meters from each other, many people died and buildings were destroyed, for what?

Hola Nelson:

Magnifica vision de la actualidad de Angola, despues de la destruccion debe venir la construccion. Animo Angolanos, vosotros podeis.
Pablo

I've heard a lot about Angola. Pictures like this show us a snapshot of what is really going on. I find it useful to see. Well done.

Excelente documento Nelson. Gosto muito da tua composição e de ver uma fotografia simples do quotidiano de Angola. As pessoas, o edifício magoado, o cartaz cheio de esperança. Muito boa!

Hello Nelson,
good journalistic picture,the contrast between the brand new advertising poster and the ruins on the right tells a lot about the situation,
good job,
vincent

This is the kind of picture that learns us much about a country most of us will probably never see. Thank you for sharing and keep on posting !

Thanks for sharing this view of Angola. It was smart of you to capture the billboard and the demolished building. Future against the past.
