Summary

A true story of Mobutu, a self-centered leader who provided a rapidly devaluing currency in a land having vast natural resources.

A missionary at Bafuka duplicated his own money to serve his people; his currency retained its value until it was worn out or lost. A wealthy business man discovered how to make vast amounts of money by ruthlessly exploiting the situation, but with no thought for his soul. The people in the land who made adjustments according to the situation included us.
