DEMORALIZING ATTEMPTS!

It seems difficult to the adherents of the toppled militarized Islamists’ regime to understand that the Sudanese people have led a ‘real revolution’ against them – in the full sense of the concept. However, they are psychologically become blind to see that truth due to the ‘shock’ that they have had after losing power following an illusion that they would not be ousted at all!
It is difficult to them to perceive how far do the Sudanese ‘hate’ them – a hatred that the demonstrators have shouted in anti-Islamists’ slogans during the upheaval. This ‘hatred’ has been created by the Islamists themselves by their misbehavior, corruption, despotism, imprisonment, torture, killings and exclusion. They have actually excluded all people. Consequently, (all) people united against them. They are now trying by all means to block the march of the revolution. They are attempting different types of conspiracies to fail the transitional government (TG).
They are working hard to distort the image of the revolution by repeating that those who are leading the (TG) are “secular, communists and leftists’. However, the Sudanese are indifferent to these words. They have arrived to a conviction that any other option is better than the militarized and corrupt Islamists! It means that the Sudanese support this TG despite being weak or not yet up to the standard. They are ready to endure the sufferings until elections are organized at the end of this interim period.
The deposed Islamists (Muslim Brothers) are continually producing rumors to frame a negative image about the TG to frustrate the citizens. When the government has recently increased salaries by five folds, they tried to demoralize the people by alleging that inflation will absorb any increase and leave the people’s standard of living as it is or even worse.
To single out one example: a university professor – who belongs to the defunct regime – has been sending me disappointing and negative messages with regard to the functioning of the TG. One message made a comparison between the salaries before and after the increase vis-à-vis the increase of the dollar against the Sudanese pound (from 98 to 140). The message – moved on the social media – is contending that the new increase of salaries, when counted against the decrease of the Sudanese pound, brings the real salary to a lesser value than that a person used to receive during Al-Beshir’s regime.
I refuted this argument by simple figures. I commented back to his message by telling him that: I am a professor who used to receive SDG10500 (per month) when Al-Beshir was in power. The dollar till the last days of the demise regime was SDG98. That means my salary was only $100 (one hundred dollars). Now, after the recent increase in salaries made by the TG, I receive SDG53500 which is equal to $400 (four hundred dollars). That means my salary is more than quadrupled.
