  • Les Dix Personnalités Politiques Qui Ont Marqué L'année 2018
    DIA http://dia-algerie.com Les dix personnalités politiques qui ont marqué l'année 2018 DIA-19 Décembre 2018: Dans le cadre de nos classements des personnalités algériennes, voici les 10 personnalités politiques qui ont marqué l'année 2018, avec l'entrée sur la scène de Mouad Bouchareb, le nouveau patron du FLN. 1- Ahmed Ouyahia, l’homme du président Alors que certains le donnaient comme mort politiquement et d’autres, démissionnaire, le Premier Ministre Ahmed Ouyahia est toujours resté l’homme du président de la République, Abdelaziz Bouteflika. Depuis sa nomination au poste de premier ministre, Ahmed Ouyahia a obtenu les pleins pouvoirs pour gérer le pays. Tout passe par lui pour une validation : de la politique économique du pays, à la Communication en passant par les dossiers stratégiques de l’industrie et de la politique sociale et internationale. Du temps où il occupait le poste de chef du Gouvernement durant l’ère de Bouteflika en 2003, Ouyahia n’avait pas autant de cartes blanches pour gérer le pays. Il n’avait que le volet économique et le suivi des dossiers du programme du président. Présenté comme l’homme « des missions délicates » Ouyahia assume bien son job et a récupéré du président Bouteflika tous les pouvoirs afin de tenter de redresser le pays. Vraisemblablement le Premier Ministre s’est doté du pouvoir de président pour assurer sa mission. Depuis son retour aux affaires politiques du pays, Ouyahia est plongé dans les dossiers urgents. Il n’est pas un quart de Premier Ministre mais un chef de l’Exécutif complet qui a pour mission de mener le pays sur la bonne route et l’éloigner le plus possible de la crise qui le menace.

  • India Is a Constructive, Dependable Actor Globally, Writes Harsh Vardhan Shringla Covid-19 Continues to Exact a Heavy Toll World
    India is a constructive, dependable actor globally, writes Harsh Vardhan Shringla Covid-19 continues to exact a heavy toll worldwide. In India too, positive cases are rising. However, our effective domestic response has led to a significant improvement in our recovery rate, which is now 68.78%. The case fatality rate at 2.01% remains one of the lowest in the world. High recovery and low-fatality outcomes can be attributed to proactive measures taken to deal with the outbreak from its early stages. We started screening Covid-19 cases a full 13 days before the first case was detected in India. We implemented full lockdown on the 55th day of the outbreak when we had only around 600 cases. Our public health response has been appreciated by the World Health Organization (WHO). The government took rapid steps to augment health infrastructure. As Prime Minister (PM) Narendra Modi noted, India now has over 11,000 Covid-19 facilities and 1.1 million isolation beds. We have ramped up testing to over half-a-million tests a day, to be scaled up to a million. India’s response has not been confined to meeting our domestic requirements. We have been significantly engaged with the international community in providing the leadership that the global situation demanded. As a responsible stakeholder in global health supply chains, we ensured timely access to essential drugs and medical items for over 150 countries, while meeting our own domestic requirements. We reaffirmed our position as the first responder to humanitarian crises in the region by deploying medical teams to help Maldives, Mauritius, Comoros and Kuwait deal with the pandemic.

  • The Executive Survey General Information and Guidelines
    The Executive Survey General Information and Guidelines Dear Country Expert, In this section, we distinguish between the head of state (HOS) and the head of government (HOG). • The Head of State (HOS) is an individual or collective body that serves as the chief public representative of the country; his or her function could be purely ceremonial. • The Head of Government (HOG) is the chief officer(s) of the executive branch of government; the HOG may also be HOS, in which case the executive survey only pertains to the HOS. • The executive survey applies to the person who effectively holds these positions in practice. • The HOS/HOG pair will always include the effective ruler of the country, even if for a period this is the commander of foreign occupying forces. • The HOS and/or HOG must rule over a significant part of the country’s territory. • The HOS and/or HOG must be a resident of the country — governments in exile are not listed. • By implication, if you are considering a semi-sovereign territory, such as a colony or an annexed territory, the HOS and/or HOG will be a person located in the territory in question, not in the capital of the colonizing/annexing country. • Only HOSs and/or HOGs who stay in power for 100 consecutive days or more will be included in the surveys. • A country may go without a HOG but there will be no period listed with only a HOG and no HOS. • If a HOG also becomes HOS (interim or full), s/he is moved to the HOS list and removed from the HOG list for the duration of their tenure.

  • The Uncertain Future of Algeria's Anti
    MENU Policy Analysis / Fikra Forum The Uncertain Future of Algeria’s Anti-Corruption Battles by Ahmed Marwane Jul 8, 2019 Also available in Arabic ABOUT THE AUTHORS Ahmed Marwane Ahmed Marwane is an Algerian journalist. He is a contributor to Fikra Forum. Brief Analysis n Algeria, a recent crackdown by Algeria’s transitional government has caused a number of prominent senior I officials from the Bouteflika era to face charges from the Sidi M'hamed central court in Algiers, mostly related to corruption. While systemic corruption was one of the issues that fueled Algeria’s recent protest movement, questions regarding the motivation behind these cases have weakened the public’s trust in an already uncertain political and economic system. Concerns over the politicization of anti-corruption efforts have the potential to feed the worst elements of Algeria’s shadow economy while sacrificing long term investment and sustained growth. Uncertainty regarding the country’s future political leadership has only prolonged Algeria’s economic crisis and has significantly limited economic growth, development, and foreign investment. Although Algeria was among the oil- rich countries bringing in billions of dollars of revenue, this wealth has not been sufficiently distributed throughout the economy and the country has seen a continual negative growth cycle. Algeria’s economic isolation and oil dependency has hindered the government’s ability to provide necessary services to citizens, thereby lowering the standard of living and resulting in widespread distrust in governmental institutions. International reports suggest that Algerians have reason to distrust the government on economic and corruption issues; the 2018 report from Transparency International on levels of global corruption ranked Algeria a low 105 out of 180 countries.
