The Mining Bank Of Congo supports the development of kyokushin-kan karate-do in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

An international training workshop on the kyokushin-kan karate-do was arranged and conducted with the participation and sponsorship by the Mining Bank of Congo on July 15-17, 2011 in Kinshasa, capital of the Democratic Republic of Congo. It was held by Shihan Hennie Bosman, Chairman of the African Federation of Kyokushin-Kan Karate-Do (South Africa), a world champion and a 7th Dan Black Belt holder.

Apart from a large number of children who are just discovering the sport, a total of 87 athletes went in for the workshop, 76 of those being from Kinshasa and 3 persons from nearby provinces of the DRC (the Democratic Republic of Congo), as well as 11 athletes from the Republic of Congo (Brazzaville).

An intensive training on the basic and striking technique, kata and refereeing of both experienced athletes and children was conducted during two days under preparative activities for the First National Championship on Kyokushin-Kan Karate-Do, which is scheduled for September 2011 at the central stadium in Kinshasa.
The event got a lot of publicity in the national media. After the press conference arranged by the Mining Bank of Congo and the Congolese Federation of Kyokushin-Kan karate-Do, participants were presented with certificates.
