Western Bar-El — Ghazal State Governor Rizik Zakaria Hassen has been reflecting on his recent visit to Singapore which was to meet experts who are going to get involved in different fields of development such as extraction of cement, agriculture, and other industries in Western Bahr-el-Ghazal State.

He also visited Dubai to sign trade agreement between Business community there with Western Bahr-el-Ghazal to improve trade in the State of Western Bahr-el-Ghazal and the nation at large. Hassan has also opened business office for Western Bahr-el-Ghazal traders in Dubai and in Dec 2012 there is going to be trade exhibition for Western Bahr-el-Ghazal and Dubai traders. Very soon the International Airport of Western Bahr-el-Ghazal State will be opened including the bridge of Suk Hajeri, and the bridge of Biselia.

Recently some government employees have been accusing the governor for the cut of their wages which is a national policy of austerity measure found in all the ten states. Because of this misplaced mistrust which has no seed of truth in it most reasonable citizens say they stand by the governor to enable him to pursue the agenda of development in the State. A senior government official urged the people to stop blaming the governor on baseless ground but to make him to chart the root of development in the country in general and in the state in particular.
