Uganda and Ethiopia send 93 expatriates to South Sudan Report—Miraya FM A total of 93 medical doctors and engineers are expected to arrive in South Sudan next week from Uganda and Ethiopia. The National Deputy Minister for Labour, Public Service and Human Resources Development, Kwong Danhier Gatluak disclosed this at the national Governors' Forum in Juba on Thursday.
This follows an agreement between South Sudan and the Inter-Governmental Administration for Development (IGAD) to share experiences between South Sudan's national employees and experienced foreign employees from IGAD member countries in order to improve service delivery to the citizens of South Sudan. Gatluak said the doctors and engineers will be deployed across the ten States to share their experiences with the national employees. "Next Saturday, we will receive 93 Ugandans and Ethiopians, most of them are doctors, engineers and some other specialists. They are coming to help us; they will give you experience. They are more exposed to practical work because they have facilities. ," said Gatluak. "We will not keep them here in Juba, governors; we are going to send them right away to you. We want you to prepare some ground for them, receive them and give them the hospitality they deserve," he added. Gatluak dispelled fears that the foreign civil servants (expatriates) are coming to grab jobs, saying they are only coming to share their experiences with the national employees. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "South Sudan Info - The Kob" group.
