When Is Tet Congo?

When will the New Year of the Congo?
In fact, there are two countries in the world called Congo that exist: Republic of Congo (also known as Congo Brazzaville) and Democratic Republic of Congo (also known as Congo Kinshasa). Of course, people in these two countries welcome the new year like many other countries in the world.
In Congo Brazzaville, people celebrate Tet widely. Every year, up to this day, adults and children both miss school and work

. Families gather together, dance, sing and sing to say goodbye to the old year. Apart from Tet, they also welcome other major holidays such as Easter and Noel.
Congo Kinshasa also has a new year on the calendar like many other countries in the world, but people have to wait many years to see the fireworks once Photo: United Nations.




Meanwhile, in Congo Kinshasa, a neighboring country that shares a border with Congo Brazzaville and in the same Francophone Community, people have to wait 50 years before they can watch the fireworks for Tet.
Despite being a large and populous country in Central Africa, Congo Kinshasa is the poorest and most backward country on the black continent. For many decades, Congo Kinshasa has always been in the top 10 poorest countries in the world.
The cause comes from over a century Belgian, political crisis, conflict and transition. In addition, underinvestment of unemployment, health care and education leads to stagnation in economic development.
However, Tet in this country is really a big festival with a joyous atmosphere. After half a century of waiting, citizens of Congo Kinshasa eagerly decorate their homes and indulge in long parties for 3 months
People give many reasons to explain this unique new year.



Some people believe that this is a characteristic and long-standing culture of the Congo Kinshasa people. Others believe that constant civil war and poverty are barriers that force people here to patiently "wait until the Congo New Year".
Although the normal years do not welcome Tet, the people of this country still organize some other important holidays such as National Day (June 30), Father's Day (August 1) or Youth Day (October 14). ).
