Extractions: Fiscal Performance in the MENA Region Governments in the MENA region have been operating under chronic budget constraints such as a sizable wage bill and large outlays on defense expenditure. Oil being the major revenue source for Arab Countries has made budgets vulnerable to exogenous developments. In 1997, oil revenue contributed between 73 and 90 percent of revenue receipts in Kuwait, Oman, Saudi Arabia and the UAE. For non-oil exporting countries, the multiplicity of tax brackets and weak tax administration has been the impediment to a smooth transition from dependence on indirect and especially trade taxes to reliance on corporate and individual income taxes. In the past few years, serious efforts on the part of MENA countries to streamline and adjust their fiscal imbalances and adjust the structure of revenues and expenditure have been pursued, with continuous improvement in fiscal balances. Box 1.4. The Budget Deficit in Morocco In an attempt to reduce economic distortions and promote higher growth, Morocco since the early 1980s has significantly liberalized its economy. It relaxed price controls, made its currency semi-convertible, launched a broad reform of the financial sector and undertook far reaching fiscal reforms. It also liberalized foreign trade. In 1989 a law was passed authorizing the privatization of state-owned companies and hotels, which had been straining the government budget. In 1993, privatization began in earnest.

Extractions: EDITORIAL The Way Forward The nation has given a heros funeral to late President Mohamed Ibrahim Egal. The transfer of power has been smooth as Dahir Riyale Kahin assumed the Presidency of the Republic. The new President has been welcomed by all Somalilanders, and moreover, there is no sign of any power struggle. On the contrary, feelings of national unity have never been stronger with an overwhelming majority of Somalilanders showing increased faith and commitment to the countrys constitutional democracy in the wake of the peaceful transition of power. Despite the positive developments of last week, there are however some vitally important issues that need to be addressed in a proper and timely manner so that Somaliland can move forward to the future with confidence. Filling the vacant position of vice president is definitely a top priority issue anticipated to be dealt with in the immediate future. Constitutionally, only the president has the jurisdiction to nominate someone for this job, and there is no doubt that Mr. Riyale is going to exercise this authority. But we do believe that the president would be better advised if he held extensive prior consultations on this matter with all sides, including those not in the government. Other than being qualified for the job, the next vice president must be a man of integrity who can work with the President. And we hope President Riyale will wisely choose a capable teammate. Devising a constitutionally based and broadly acceptable framework for holding fair and free elections in the country is the next issue that needs to be tackled. There is no doubt that this is a tough and a challenging task. However we are encouraged by the prevailing mood of national unity to expect that a consensus could be reached amongst all stakeholders (the president, parliament leaders, representatives of political parties and civil society groups) on the subject of how and when the people of this country will be able to go to the polls to elect their future government. This issue has to be resolved well ahead of the deadline set for the incumbent government to remain in office.

Extractions: var site="s20mixedhumor" On Wednesday, Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf announced that Pakistani security forces had broken the back of al Qaeda. Following a meeting with United Arab Emirates (UAE), Lt. General Hamad Muhammad Tahni Al-Rumeithy, Musharraf seemed agitate that Pakistan is still being accused of terrorism and proclaimed that no other country has played as important of a role in combating the extremist organization. Posted by Mixed Humor at 04:31 PM Comments (0) TrackBack After mounting large offensives against al Qaeda over the last year that has included the killing or arrests of thousands of operatives, Pakistan is declaring that South Waziristan is now clear of militants.

Gen. Niaz Khattak, who is leading the hunt for militants in South Waziristan, said as many as 600 militants were in the region last year. According to our intelligence reports, now we think there is absolutely none in South Waziristan," Khattak told journalists at the Karavan Manza mountaintop army bunker during an organized tour of the northwestern region.
