Letter From �No Prroblem� Luanda

Monday, February 22, 2016

LUANDA: I am writing this on the way to the airport on our airport shuttle – a big white 4X4 Dodge Durango – to catch a flight to a town called Menongue in the Cuito Cuanavale.

It is just before 4am local time and our chauffeur, Wilson, is rushing to reach the airport before 4:30am, which is our boarding time. Today he can freely speed because there are few vehicles on the road unlike the crazy traffic jams from the previous day.

Traffic is a serious problem in Luanda because of the bad roads in the city and the vehicle population. Everyone in Luanda owns a big SUV. Well, not really everyone, but that is how it looks like on the roads.
