SUBJECT: DDR IN KATANGA:  DESPITE DESIRE TO DISARM, 
REINTEGRATION ELUDES MANY 
 
REF: KINSHASA 153 
 
1.  (SBU) Summary.  Demobilization, disarmament and 
reintegration programs (DDR) remain in disarray in the 
Katanga province, as they are throughout the DRC.  Mai Mai 
fighters already certified for inclusion in the government's 
DDR program continue to wait, and those not yet certified are 
ignored.  Meanwhile, stop-gap programs providing a fraction 
of the official benefits have created competing reintegration 
schemes.  Neither approach has been effective in returning 
members of these volatile groups to a stable civilian 
environment.  End summary. 
 
-------------------------- 
MAI MAI FIGHTERS ABANDONED 
-------------------------- 
 
2.  (SBU) During a recent visit to Katanga, Poloff observed 
that the pace of the Congolese government's program to disarm 
and reintegrate former Mai Mai fighters into civilian 
communities has been glacial.  According to the Kalemie 
representative of the National Commission for Disarmament, 
Demobilization and Reinsertion (CONADER), only 600 of 
approximately 7,000 identified Mai Mai ex-combatants have 
successfully passed through its demobilization process.  He 
said the majority of Katangan ex-combatants would like to 
return to civilian life, but poverty, lack of skills, and 
absence of job opportunities prevent them from doing so. 
 
------------------------------------ 
CONADER UNABLE TO MANAGE THE PROCESS 
------------------------------------ 
 
3. (SBU)  As reported in reftel B, CONADER has been largely 
ineffective in its management of the DDR process throughout 
the DRC, and Katanga is no different.  But CONADER is quick 
to claim that many of the problems and delays in Katanga are 
the fault of others.  CONADER had the obligation of 
certifying, along with the Mai Mai chiefs, whether or not 
claimants were actually combatants before confirming them as 
eligible for assistance.  The CONADER representative alleged 
that many of the Mai Mai leaders and villagers in Katanga 
have been running extortion rings.  It is a lucrative 
arrangement for the Mai Mai chiefs to "certify" that a group 
of villagers are members of their militias -- and then demand 
up to half of the disarmament payout as a kickback from the 
intended beneficiary.  Under this logic, delays in 
certification and provision of service are inevitable due to 
large numbers of allegedly false claims. 
 
4.  (SBU) CONADER initially provided each ex-combatant an 
immediate payment of $110 for urgent needs, plus a monthly 
stipend and entry/exit "kits" consisting of food, shelter 
materials, and some livelihood training.  However, when the 
backlog of ex-combatants swamped CONADER's capacity, the 
United Nations Development Program (UNDP) developed an 
alternative response called the Community Relief in Katanga 
(CRK) program.  The CRK provides merely $20 -- about the cost 
of transport for a fighter and his family back to their home 
village.  The payment is accompanied by the promise of 
inclusion in any future GDRC reintegration programs, if and 
when they become functional. 
 
5.  (SBU) In late December, CONADER initiated mobile teams to 
locate remote groups which had been previously certified for 
demobilization.  According to the head of MONUC's Lubumbashi 
office, CONADER was making one-off payments of $300 -- 
representing the $110 initial payment plus an accrued monthly 
stipend and a token towards reintegration -- to each of 600 
"certified" Mai Mai fighters in Mitwaba alone.  At the same 
time, the UNDP was making its $20 payments to different 
groups of Mai Mai fighters in the same region. 
 
------- 
COMMENT 
------- 
 
6.  (SBU) The problems faced by those wishing to disarm in 
Katanga are just one example of the difficulties with DDR 
throughout the DRC.  CONADER's operational problems must be 
sorted out if it is to continue, or the agency must be 
replaced with a more effective mechanism for managing the 
complex and critical process of DDR.  End comment.
