You’re arguing about the wrong things…

Enjoyed a fruitful discussion with #Malawi’s Minister of Energy Honorable Ibrahim Matola @ibrahimmatolamw on the country’s development agenda to expand energy access. Accessible & affordable electricity for households & firms is a major enabler of economic prosperity

Central Banks play a hugely important role in promoting financial stability & supporting the development of the financial sector in countries. I am pleased to say that the @WBG has just approved a new operation in support of the @BankofSouthSuda

@JohnAkec It's not so unfair to finance, women and especially widows, people with special needs and the most vulnerable in society. How far can humanity go?

Zelensky was expected to arrive in Hiroshima to participate in G7 ... but he just went ... to Saudi Arabia! ? ! ?

Boosting the performance of the civil service is a vital medium-term agenda for improving governance effectiveness & basic service delivery in #SouthSudan. Discussed several concrete ideas with Hon Minister Joseph Bakosoro on ways the @WBG can back this hugely important effort

[Firas Raad @FirasbinRaad]

Great panel today on developing key economic corridors in Africa during the IMF-World Bank #SpringMeetings. South Sudanese Hon Finance Minister Dier Tong Ngor highlighted the importance of South Sudan becoming ‘land-linked’ & building up regional connectivity @WorldBankAfrica

Instead of blaming the water tankers, why is it very difficult for the SPLM led doing-nothing government to supply the Capital City with clean water. How can a whole Capital City rely on water tankers for years since 2005?

@NBS_Statistics That's awesome. And the GDP figures for 2020.

[John Deng Aleer @jaleer32]

@AdokGai Sure, increase in network services is usually related to inflation rates. Perhaps we may need to increase the competition

[John Deng Aleer @jaleer32]

@JohnAkec Prof I would opt to blame slow economic growth. A country taxes what it produces, but we have less production and overstretched oil revenues.

[John Deng Aleer @jaleer32]

@JohnAkec Prof. Do a second round and use a sectoral approach.

[Victoria Kwakwa @VictoriaKwakwa]

Good discussion w/Dier Tong Ngor, Minister of Finance & Planning & Johnny Ohisa, Governor of the Bank of #SouthSudan. We discussed the importance of working together on accelerating #energy & clean #water access, macroeconomic stabilization & public financial management reforms.

@JohnAkec You are right, the quality of our education systems need to improve esp in the city. Dig deep into the govt coffers and ensure you have two different admission channels and programs, the privately sponsored and the govt sponsored programs. That's a good way to raise funds

[John Deng Aleer @jaleer32]

@JohnAkec Higher institutions of learning need to adopt a parallel admisions for privately sponsored students. The government sponsored students will pay subsidized fee while privately sponsored programs pays full tuition fees. Way to make education attractive

[John Deng Aleer @jaleer32]

@Lobiyn_Achien @m_Gurush @MasterRemit This would be a good idea
