Due to excessive hunting and poaching, <b>rhinos </b>became extinct by 1983, but were re-introduced into Uganda in 2005 by<b> Rhino Fund Uganda</b>. <b>White rhinoceros </b>are now being bred again in the 7,000 hectares (27 sq mi) <b>Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary</b>, which is located 70 kilometres (43 mi), south of the park.

The postcard costed me US$5 each. The back of the postcard reads <b>"Bonobos,  esp猫ce endemique de RD Congo prot茅g茅 par la loi" </b>in French language meaning <b>"Bonobos, DR Congo endemic species protected by law". </b>The bonobos are found in a 500,000 km2 (190,000 sq mi) area of the Congo Basin in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Central Africa.<br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEie8HKH_j6bsu44JfnvQAfK07g-orkbWEZQwVK1yo_HhbfAojwiwAUug8tPULdh6zqFjumd6tjqkG5j2smjE9qDuIo7CDbmwIGuHHcv0fcpMUIUsI76_SumhAtYA2qcmX_YzJHToC1Bqunr/s1600/Stamps+from+DR+Congo.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="157" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEie8HKH_j6bsu44JfnvQAfK07g-orkbWEZQwVK1yo_HhbfAojwiwAUug8tPULdh6zqFjumd6tjqkG5j2smjE9qDuIo7CDbmwIGuHHcv0fcpMUIUsI76_SumhAtYA2qcmX_YzJHToC1Bqunr/s1600/Stamps+from+DR+Congo.jpg" width="320" /></a></div> The experience in the Post Office was even more strange. The lady at the counter in <b>General Post office </b>in <b>Kinshasa </b>told me that postage for each postcard is US$5 but she didn't have stamps for the same value. Language barrier was pretty difficult to cope with as the lady spoke French only and not a word of English. The only stamps that she had were the two pasted on the postcard. The posted stamps are of 245 Congolese Francs only which turns out to be around US$0.25, so I had to pay US$5.25 for the postage.<br /> After receiving the postcard, I did try to find a postmark or some sign of US$5 that I paid to her but could not find any sign. Any how, it is really a precious jewel to find a real-posted postcard from <b>DR Congo</b>.<br /> I do have some other <b>UNESCO postcards</b> from <b>DR Congo </b>that I brought from there. I shall be posting their scans on the blog in coming days. If you are interested in getting any of them, you can leave a message below with your facebook ID or email contact.<br /> Have fun .....

I am in <b>Bukavu</b>, a city in the eastern province <b>South Kivu</b> and about 1500 miles away from the capital city, <b>Kinshasa</b>. Even the large shops do not have any postcards of the country. I am working on a project to collect <b>UNESCO site postcards</b> but I am yet to find a single post card of any of the 5 <b>UNESCO World Heritage Sites</b> in <b>DR Congo</b>.<br /> <br /> Luckily or unluckily, I found these two postcards while roaming in the city at a small stationery shop but the shopkeeper was not willing to depart from them for a small amount. He asked $10 for each postcard, however after a bit (a lot) of bargain I managed to get each postcard for $5 only. I definitely wanted to buy more for swapping but could only purchase one copy of each postcard.<br /> <b><i><br /></i></b> <b><i>Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) </i></b>is undoubtedly one of the hardest countries in Postcrossing World to get a postcard from. After being torn by years of violence, a history filled with genocides, mass murders, Armed  Groups and extremely corrupt regimes, <b>DRC</b> remains at the bottom in the list of countries in almost every aspect. <b>DR Congo</b> is blessed with gigantic mineral reserves including gold, copper, uranium, cobalt, coltan, oil, gas and virtually every element present on the periodic table. However this blessing from God Almighty has become a curse for the country and its people. Armed Groups are always fighting with each other for the control of the mines filled with gold, copper and other precious metals. In order to control the people, they use a number of brutal tactics including mass killings, kidnapping, looting and above all rape. <b>DR Congo</b> is known as the <b>“Rape Capital of the World”</b> as the Armed Groups carry out mass rapes to strike fear among the populace.<br /> In order to control the situation, <b>United Nations</b> had to deploy a mission in the country, commonly known by its acronym, <b>MONUSCO</b>. <b>MONUSCO </b>is the <b>largest United Nations Mission</b> in any country of the World with more than 20,000 observers and military personnel deployed. UN managed to control the crimes to a large extent but the country is still marred with numerous challenges.<br /> You must be wondering why it is so hard to find the postcards of DR Congo. UN terms DR Congo among the least developed Nations of the World and it is among the bottom 10 countries of the World in terms of poverty, stability and almost every social indicator. With a life expectancy of around 48 years, people are not much inclined towards hobbies. Instead they are working hard for their daily food.<br /> <br /> <b><u style="background-color: yellow;"><span style="color: blue;">Do you Want to Get a Postcard from DR Congo?</span></u><span style="background-color: black;">  </span></b>Because of the huge price, I may not be able to swap these with Postcrosser friends but I can get them for you, if anyone is willing to pay (Remember, I am not a dealer, just a collector :-) ). Postcards will be sent from another country (Probably Pakistan, my home country) inside an envelope or written and stamped (as per your wish), as <b>DR Congo</b> does not have a functional postal system, anywhere other than <b>Kinshasa</b>. You will only pay for the price of postcard + postage cost, without any commission.

Due to it's robustness and easiness to maintain, it was much liked by pilots and ground crew alike. It was one of the smallest and lightest major combat fighters fielded by any combatant during the war, and its high power-to-weight ratio gave it excellent performance. It proved a formidable dog-fighter. Many pilots considered it a superior aircraft to the <b>P-51D Mustang </b>and the <b>Supermarine Spitfire</b>.
