Well, after reading the article of Mr. Kuir Garang titled "Riek Machar and the Issue of Self-determination for South Sudan "I was very amused and smiled as well for my fellow country man trying to confuse the people of South Sudan with what he think was the right history about the Self-determination. And to me I can say Kuir Garang digressed from the main point he was trying to communicate to the target audiences.
Absolutely, if you read what Mr. Kuir Garang wrote where I quote him saying "Self-determination was first proposed by South Sudanese participants of Juba conference in 1947. Anyone who pretends to be the one, who initiated it, if he or she wasn't present during that conference, is just abusing history". Very interesting quote of the year 2014!
