ECONMY THEN PEACE MUST BE GOVERNMENT’S TOP PRIORITY

The Sudan’s transitional government has intentionally ignored the economic reforms and improving living conditions of the Sudanese citizen. A lot of attention has been given to peace process than restoring the economy of the county.
The endless negations of peace talks, currently underway in South Sudanese capital, Juba, has taken more than six months now with no much breakthrough. And remember, the whole transitional period is 39 months.
As economy leads life and not politics, it is no paradox for government to tackle the two issues together to run peace talks and take good care of daily life issues it is unwise and illogic that the government neglect the major file of economy and searching peace in Juba. As much as peace is also important, I think restoring the divested economy of Sudan is much needed during this period so as to prepare citizens for the national elections at the end of transitional period.
The Sudanese Prime Minsiter, Abdallah Hamdok and his finance Minister, Ibrahim Al Badawi, would have put their minds together, as economists, to tackle the matter jointly with no further delay.
Many progress has been made on the issue of reviewing Sudan’s foreign relations particular with Western countries. Other efforts had been put also on dismantling Bashir’s party and their institutional roots from various locations, this process witnessed remarkable achievement and some millions of Sudanese Pounds were recovered including moveable and unmovable assets worth millions of pounds as well.
Despite of all these things citizens are not satisfied with the government performance within the past few months. Some even believe, the economy situation has even worsened.
Hopes and aspirations of the Sudanese people put on government have collided with outbreak of Coronavirus worldwide. The coronavirus has stopped National Economic Conference and some event on the way even today people raise their hopes on Friends of Sudan conference which is taking place in Parish, France.
