Violence

Moki Edwin Kindzeka

   GAROUA BOULAY, CAMEROON - Cameroon authorities say more than 250
   foreign workers, most of them Chinese, have fled post-election violence
   in the Central African Republic (C.A.R.) to the border town of Garoua
   Boulay.'¯The foreign workers say they are being targeted by rebel
   groups disgruntled with the C.A.R.'s December 27 presidential election
   that saw Faustin-Archange Touadera reelected.'¯

   Li Yu, 43, calls himself a spokesman for Chinese workers who fled
   post-election violence in the Central African Republic to Cameroon.

   He says 152 Chinese merchants, construction engineers, and those
   working on mining sites escaped to Cameroon in the past week.
