Corruption In South Sudan

Since its Independence in July this year South Sudan has been struggling to overcome what they consider one of their biggest obstacles: corruption. To overcome this issue they created a committee dedicated to getting rid of corruption, which is in form of a 5 year strategy. Due to lack of capabilities a lot of people do not believe the committee can carry out the process of ridding Sudan of corruption. South Sudan has more major issues like trying to stay off the list of failed states even though they are a new country. This issue reminds me of a book The Bottom Billion because in this book the author talks about landlocked countries and how the neighbors of a country highly influence how the country that is landlocked will operate. South Sudan is surrounded by corrupt neighbors which does not give it a positive outlook.
