Ghent Jurgen Heytens of the Faja Lobi in the Vlaanderenstraat has 3 days in jail in the Congo. There he resides part-time jobs, because he is a great bosaanplantproject. Some corrupt Congolese, including the prosecutor, thought him his money, but came from a bare-bones trip home. And Jurgen, who goes just by. There is already 2,000 acres (!) trees were planted, and he gives it 580 people work.
“Since 2007, I have the Faja Lobi Cafe & B&B in Ghent,” explains Jurgen Heytens. “But my big dream was to create something to leave for the future. The best seemed to be a forest plant. I have 2 god kids of parents of Congolese origin. In 2011, I am for the first time to the Congo drawn, along with them, so that their grandfather might meet. I am deeply interested in reforestation in the Congo, and found Idiofa in the province of Kwilu the best location. The field is located 100 km from the real forest. By that zone to be planted is the primary forest is protected. Idiofa is 700 km from Kinshasa, and is only accessible via a dirt road of some 120 km. The city has 150,000 inhabitants, and many villages surrounding it. The population made there is robbery on the nature, the trees were cut down.”
