Aden, NewsYemen:
The liberated governorates have not left the living and service crises for seven years, and the current government has proven its inability and failure in the economic aspect, despite the international and Arab interest and support expressed by officials of the major countries after the formation of the government and after its return to the capital, Aden.
The government of parity, headed by Dr. Moeen Abdul-Malik, has failed to make changes in the economic aspect, since its return to the capital, Aden, where the liberated southern governorates are experiencing a crisis in living services, the absence of salaries, the instability of the local currency rate, and the absence of oil derivatives.
The economic side witnessed a breakthrough after the appointment of a new administration for the Central Bank, and after talking about a deposit provided by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the UAE, and the Yemeni riyal recovered a little of its value, but this did not last long as a result of the failure.
Sources say that the leadership of the coalition placed conditions on the management of the new Central Bank and the government of parity, before submitting the deposit, the most important of which is stopping corruption operations, dismissing those involved in currency manipulation and speculators, and depositing the revenues of all liberated governorates to the Central Bank.
It seems that the influence of legitimacy is the only obstacle standing in the way of any economic reforms, and who delays the arrival of the deposit to the Central Bank, as it has not yet completed the legal procedures related to the corruption of the legitimacy of the deposit.
A member of the National Assembly of the Transitional Council, Wathiq Al-Hasani, believes that the service and living crisis is still present, and there are no real signs to address it, and it is impossible to recover the deteriorating situation in the same ways that they wanted it worse.
Al-Hasani called on the leadership of the Arab coalition to form an economic committee with integrity and efficiency to manage the economic and living situation in the liberated areas, not subject to the office of the Presidency of the Republic and the Prime Minister.
Politician Ghaleb bin Kaalan said earlier that the authorities that control money changers manipulating local currency rates and black markets are present in Ma'rib under the protection of the local authority loyal to the Brotherhood's Islah Party.
The Saudi political analyst, Ahmed Al-Qarni, believes that the STC’s survival, awaiting the relief from legitimacy in the face of the catastrophic economic situation in the southern governorates, is a waste of time.
And he said in a tweet to him on Twitter, that the Transitional Council needs to move seriously by intensifying dialogue and coordination and finding solutions through the coalition, some countries, international organizations and major global companies to change the catastrophic economic and service situation in the south, especially Aden.
