Central African Republic – Hope for the Future

There is no hiding from the fact that the Central African Republic (CAR) has been struggling with violence, pain and suffering for a long time now.   
Countries are advising their citizens against travelling to this country, and the daily news coverage about the country is more than enough to cause tender hearts to break and tears to flow.
Nevertheless, in 2016 the country elected a new president, Faustin Archange Touadera, who said, “We’re going to make CAR a United country, a country of peace, a country facing development.”  Additionally, the country still has a continuous supply of diamonds, uranium and land in its possession.
