Angola Closed Its Borders for Other Reasons

Why would Angola close it borders with Congo?  POVERTY!  I think to keep the poorer Congolese out of Angola.

Many countries close their borders for economic reasons but they do not cite it as the official reason.

The World Health Organisation (WHO) said on Monday there was no indication the deadly Ebola virus had crossed to Angola from the Democratic Republic of Congo, where it has killed 13 people.

"The epidemic is in the province of Kasai in Western Congo. There is no evidence it has spread to Angola," Luis Sambo, WHO regional director for Africa, said after meeting with Angolan President Jose Eduardo dos Santos.

"At this moment there is no reason to be alarmed."

His comments came after Angola closed part of its northeastern border with the Congo where an Ebola outbreak, in addition to killing 13 people, is believed to have infected 40 more.
