Zaire Other Interest Groups
Other important interest groups include the Zairian
League for
Human Rights, founded in the late 1980s, and professional
associations such as the Medical Association and Bar
Association,
which existed for decades but only acquired political
significance
in the freer political environment. By contrast, the
National
Association of Enterprises of Zaire (Association Nationale
des
Entreprises du Zaïre--ANEZA) has remained in the hands of
close
associates of Mobutu and apparently has little independent
political weight.
