The Economist : au Rwanda mieux vaut se taire

http://www.economist.com/displayStory.cfm?story_ID=2023062

Safer to keep mum

Rwanda has a history of authoritarianism. Local officials have long had
boundless coercive power over ordinary people, and have been held
accountable only upwards, to the central government. Under the RPF,
things are more relaxed, but people are still submissive. One group of
peasants, interviewed by the side of a road, refused to express any
opinions about the government. Then, after a few minutes, two policemen
drove up, demanded to know what was going on, and suggested that your
correspondent redirect his inquiries to the Bureau of Elections.

The RPF dominates all the levers of power: the security services, the
bureaucracy, the judiciary, banks, universities and state-owned
companies. Its members find it easier than non-members to win government
contracts and licences. Those outside the circle often feel bitter.

One Hutu said he spent eight years in jail before being found innocent
of abetting the genocide. Someone lost his case file, he said, perhaps
because “those who came from abroad” wanted his plum government job. He
was made to attend a camp de solidarité, which he thought was designed
to drum into him the RPF's ideology and view of history. But he did not
dare complain. “I've seen men beaten to death in prison,” he said, “I
don't want to go back.”

Even those who regard Mr Kagame as their protector sometimes find the
atmosphere in Rwanda oppressive. “There's no freedom of speech,”
complained one RPF-supporting student. But he cheered, along with
thousands of others, when Mr Kagame arrived at his victory rally, waving
from the top of an armoured car.
