Health care system in Mauritania:

I have just heard that the Ministry of education in Mauritania have just decided to shut down the first private medical school in the country, and that draws my attention to the bad situation the sector is scrumbling into, which reflects in it self the mismanagement, the mess and the countless which’s going on in the country for many years now.
Today no one even trusts our doctors, that’s why, today more and more people prefer dying on their beds "if they don't have enough money to travel abroad" to go and seek treatment in the local hospital.
In our local hospital, the surgeons are keen to cut off people in order to train themselves and make money, so whatever the disease from which you’re suffering, they will start advocating you, the good side of going through a surgery, and once you agree with them, and they cut you off, your life is over for sure, because they don’t know why nor how to fix the wounds they will create, and it will become a matter of days for you.
When it comes to the medicine it is almost the same story, the pharmacies are full with the faked drugs and the authorities don’t have the necessary means which can allow them to check for the faked drug before it crosses our borders.
All that, show how our health care system is really in a big chaos, so people are expecting a lot from the current president who is really working hard in order to fix the situation, and we all should be helpful.

The UM 24 billion affair:

These days the anti-financial fraud police are investigating into the disappearance of more than UM 24 billion from the national reserves accounts between 2001 and 2002 when Mr. Sidi El Mokhtar Ould Nagi was the secretary of the institution.

The ongoing enquiries have already caused the jail of the top suspects "Mr. Sidi El Mokhtar and the then his deputy" and the hearing of almost all the big financial magnate in the country.

According to an Arabic web site the disappeared amount was wired for no clear reason to many different national financial institutions and banks during Mr. Sidi El Mokhtar mandate and never sent back to the national reserves accounts.

As a matter of fact, this case has sparked a wave of concerns and fears beyond the national reserves, and people have started thinking about the repercussion of digging all the past money embezzlement cases can have on the stability they’re enjoying. And the people see the current move as a dangerous backward step which could end up putting behind bars many important personalities.

A new law for the public service in Mauritania:

This new law is very well welcomed among the working people; because it will raise the age limit for the recruitment in the public sector, from 30 to 40 years old, make the retirement age at 65 instead of 60 and alleviate many old recruitment rules.

Before this law, many well qualified young Mauritanians were obliged to head toward the lawless private sector one’s they’re more than thirty and support it in order to make a living.

Now, all that is over, everyone will have enough time to apply at any job he desires; and also the government can hire a qualified and experienced people as long as they’re less than forty.

So the public service is no more, that golden job which requires luck, talent, and interventions in order to get.

The president made an unannounced visit to Arafat:

Now, for more than two decades, we never saw nor heard about such an amazing thing, a sitting president who visits secretly the offices of the main public services (hospitals, schools, government buildings …etc) in order to check for the services they are offering to the people. By doing such an amazing thing this president proved one’s again that, he is here to serve people, lift up the country and put people interest first.
Undoubtedly, this visit will make the employees do their job correctly, and will bring back the trust, the people have lost toward their country.
Above all that, this way of managing will boost the country’s economy and make it flourish and expand more, which’s the best way of tackling the current rampant poverty.

At the end, I have a short message which i'd like to send to the opposition, which’s, please let the president do his job, and no more baseless critics.

The 2009 senate election:

The renewal of the first part of the senate (Group A) was the first real test for Ould Abdel Azize since his election as a president of the country a three months ago. This approval test brought up what we all felt since the first step of Ould Abdel Azize in the office, which’s a sharp rise in his popularity all across the country due to the rate of the promise kept (during the presidential campaign) to those failed untill now which are almost none. Throughout this campaign we heard about buying vote, which’s nowadays a common ground all over the world but never about vote rigging or government meddling even during the operation.
In the other hand, this election has a big loser, which's called Messoud Ould Boulkhai the leader of the opposition, who in his first press meeting accused his allies of double crossing him in favour of the ruling party.
But according to all the people we cross, this trend will carry on for sure, if the president keeps cleansing the country from those bad guys who waste our resources and cause famine and starvation to our people.
