Vinck noted that the 2011 election, the first peaceful polls in a space of 20 years, “will be essential for increasing the legitimacy of the state in the eyes of these communities.”

On reparations, the report notes that most respondents (97%) said the war victims should be compensated. Of these, 49% said the payment should be done often because they are poor, 24% said it should be a form of recognition of their suffering and 19% said such reward would help them forget the suffering of the war.
