The Country Brief and the FAO Fisheries Statistics provided in Part I may, however, have been prepared at different times, which would explain any inconsistencies. Country brief Updated 05-2015 Equatorial Guinea comprises a mainland area as well as five inhabited oceanic islands, the two most important of which are Annobon and Bioko. The Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) covers an area of around 314 000 km2. In 2013, total capture production was about 8 600 tonnes, including 1 000 tonnes of inland water catches. More than half of marine catch was composed of sardinella and other small pelagics. In the last several years, significant quantities (1 500-3 100 tonnes per year) of tuna catches caught by the national industrial fleet were reported. FAO Fisheries and Aquaculture Department Fishing is both industrial (mainly licensed foreign trawlers) and artisanal, with canoes, using handlines and small seines. In 2013 a total of 400 fishing vessels with engines and 700 vessels without engines were reported. Aquaculture production is still negligible, at around 15 tonnes of tilapias and other freshwater fishes in the recent years. Some of the shrimp and high-value fish species are processed and frozen onboard for export. “The value of African fisheries” study estimated about 4 200 people had jobs directly in the fisheries and aquaculture sector, and additional 10 000 people in fish processing in 2011. In 2013, imports of fish and fishery products were estimated at USD 26 million and exports were USD 40 000. Annual per capita fish consumption recorded in 2011 was 25.9 kg, contributing around 40 percent of animal protein supply and 23 percent of total protein supply to the population. Information available in 2011 indicates that the fishing effort directed at demersal species was low. Tuna is seasonally present in the waters of Equatorial Guinea. The sector has had little support in terms of infrastructure, training and capacity building for appropriate management enforcement. Improved utilization of fisheries resources is even more critical considering that domestic agricultural production is deficient, covering only 30 percent of the internal demand, with the remaining demand met through imports. Illegal Unreported and Unregulated (IUU) Fishing is also a major regional concern. Since July 1997, Equatorial Guinea is a Party to the 1982 UN Convention on the Law of the Sea and to the 1993 FAO Compliance Agreement.

  • Failed Coup Attempt in Gabon
    CRS INSIGHT Failed Coup Attempt in Gabon January 9, 2019 (IN11013) | Related Authors Tomas F. Husted Alexis Arieff | Tomas F. Husted, Analyst in African Affairs ([email protected], 7-7754) Alexis Arieff, Specialist in African Affairs ([email protected], 7-2459) On January 7, a small group of Gabonese soldiers seized the state broadcasting building in Gabon's capital, Libreville, and declared their intention to overthrow the government of President Ali Bongo Ondimba. Within hours, security forces retook the building and put down the coup attempt. The attempt followed months of political uncertainty after the president (aged 59) suffered a stroke in Saudi Arabia in October 2018; he has since remained outside the country and is currently convalescing in Morocco. Separately, the coup attempt came days after President Trump announced the deployment, beginning on January 2, of "approximately 80" U.S. military personnel to Libreville as a standby force to protect "U.S. citizens, personnel, and diplomatic facilities" in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), should the security situation there deteriorate in the wake of December 2018 elections. Shortly after the coup attempt, a U.S. Africa Command (AFRICOM) spokesperson stated that "there is no change in the status" of that deployment, and that U.S. forces were not presently tasked with securing diplomatic assets (or any other mission) in Gabon. An oil-rich former French colony on the geostrategic Gulf of Guinea, Gabon has long been considered a stable—if authoritarian-leaning—country in a tumultuous region. U.S. interests center on Gabon's role in regional conflict resolution, maritime security, and environmental conservation.

  • Unlike, for Example West Africa, We Know Little About Migration in Central Africa. We Could Even Think, Seen the Rarity of Relat
    MIGRATIONS IN CENTRAL AFRICA: CARACTERISTICS, ISSUES AND ROLES IN THE INTEGRATION AND DEVELOPMENT OF THE COUNTRIES OF THE REGION By B. LUTUTALA Mumpasi Demographer University of Kinshasa Introduction Unlike, for example West Africa, we know little about migration in Central Africa. We could even think, seen the rarity of related studies and policies1 that migration is a marginal phenomenon in this region of Africa. And yet, we know that wars and other political unrests that take place from time to time in the region force the populations in their thousands even in their millions to move inside their countries, or to take refuge in neighboring or faraway countries. In 1994, Wilkinson wrote that "the Great Lakes have been one of the most serious and most complex crises of our time" (Wilkinson, R., in UNHCR, 1997), when he saw a great flood of more than one million Rwandan refugees flock in the small town of Goma in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), in the days following the assassination of the Rwandan President Juvenal Habyarimana and of the Burundi President Cyprien Ntaryamina. Another tent «city», exclusively occupied by these migrants, established itself in the outskirt of Goma. Besides, some of the migrants from Central Africa went through tragic events in their new countries of immigration. Some of them were returned and repatriated to their countries of origin in the most inhuman conditions. In Congo, the migrants from the DRC are considered as pests: it is better to kill a Congolese (from the DRC) than a snake, say the people of this sister country of the DRC.
