peer agreement (net): +2acting deputy mayor Explanation: This is a tricky one for the AI. The bourgmestre is the mayor in RDC (and Belgium!). AI can stand for "ad interim" or "acting" or "interim" in English. or it could be A for "adjoint", deputy in English or vice-mayor, and I for "interimaire". If you Google with all these full words you will get all possible Ghits many relating to mayors in RDC. www.un.int/drcongo/archives/BQ-1296.htm e-masina.com/pb-masina.html www.demainlekasai.com/index.php?Itemid=99&id=490&option=com... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 14 mins (2008-08-21 16:43:59 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Note: the proliferation of "interim" mayors in RDC was due to the breakdown of institutions and the lack of elections following wars and other disruptions. |
