I am a big fan of Mrs Sirleaf. She does a good job and she is a women, I wish to see more African woman to be promoted to top jobs

Monrovia before the war was far from good but it was "paradise" compared to the yers that followed. It has a lot more order and structure and streets were cleaner (at least on these pics)

Monrovia in the 1970s

Very poor, but I imagine that today must be worse, war is still in the country?

Thanks. I was always curious as to how it looked like in the past. I like the fact that there was order and things worked (ie. painted streets, working traffic lights).

do you have more pictures? I am very interested in comparing Liberia with how it looks nowadays..

more pics please
