South Sudan seeks UAE bailout as economy crashes
South Sudan's President has had two official trips to the United Arab Emirates this year, forced by domestic economic and political problems he wants help to tackle. And Abu Dhabi's rising influence in the Horn of Africa means South Sudan could have found support to soften the blow of woes it has faced in Juba. Salvar Kiir left Juba on June 22 and only returned this week on Tuesday, a lengthy trip he said had involved seeking partners to invest in the country's economy. On both occasions, Juba said the visits were to strengthen 'bilateral relations and promoting investment opportunities in South Sudan.'Earlier in February, a dispatch from Juba said President Kiir had travelled to 'discuss co-operation in economic, agricultural, energy and infrastructure sectors.'A presidential spokesperson, David Amuor Majur, told the media ahead of the recent trip that Kiir would meet with a number of investment groups, where he would present 'a compelling case for investment' in South Sudan's key growth sectors. Abu Dhabi did not provide further details on the nature of agreements -- if any -- about the trip. But Juba has argued it was reforming its structures to make it easy for investors. The President's trip was, however, crucial in discussing other issues Juba is concerned with: The war in Sudan, which has seen nearly 200,000 refugees pour into South Sudan. The Sudan military government, out of protest, had severed diplomatic ties with the UAE. It didn't, however, cut entire communication channels, and South Sudan has remained a key contact as a go-between. As such, South Sudan has also carried the burden of war in Sudan, which the UAE has used to elevate its profile. In March, the UAE inaugurated Madhol Field Hospital in the Northern Bahr el Ghazal state in South Sudan, providing a 100-bed capacity, and several clinics to serve some two million people mostly refugees. The UAE had earlier, during a conference on Sudan, pledged $200 million worth of humanitarian aid. The chaos from Sudan war, however, has only piled to the misery. Juba had been looking to the UAE for support to inject some capital into its economy. Read: Kenyans sue Juba over unpaid salaries as public servants' woes riseCivil servants have gone without pay for months, with some even seeking legal redress in jurisdictions outside Juba, especially Nairobi. Programmes for political reforms, part of the 2018 peace deal, have mostly missed deadlines or stalled, according to a recent status report by the Reconstituted Joint Monitoring and Evaluation Commission (R-JMEC), a body set up to check violations of the peace deal. In May, South Sudan government spokesperson Martin Lomuro refuted reports in the UAE that Juba had signed an oil deal worth $13 billion, which would have seen it get the money as a loan to be repaid through oil for a 20-year period to the Hamad bin Khalifa Department of Projects, a private firm. Dr Lomuro, however, did not deny that South Sudan was looking for similar financing. South Sudan is the most oil-dependent country in the world, with nearly 98 percent of its revenues coming from oil exports. But some of its 150,000 barrels per day are already sold up to 2026 before extraction. China, Japan, Italy, and Singapore had been the main buyers of the oil via the pipeline to Port Sudan but supplies to Port Sudan for onward export have been hugely disrupted by the war in the north. South Sudan's economy has faced turmoil including political violence. It is expected to lose at least 4.3 percent of the GDP, with an annual inflation of 143 percent. In fact, a recent report by the African Development Bank said 92 percent of its 16 million population now live below two dollars a day – a 55.4 percent rise from the poverty levels 14 years ago, when the country seceded from Sudan. The South Sudan Country Focus 2025 released in Juba on June 25, states that poverty levels in South Sudan have been on the rise at every turn, due to conflict, which has impacted oil production, taken a toll on the economy and affected development indicators. Read: At 92pc, South Sudan sinks deeper into povertyAfDB cites World Bank poverty data, which shows the share of South Sudanese population living below the poverty line increased from 51 percent in 2011 to 82 percent in 2022. The following year, it worsened and became widespread, rising from 84 percent in 2023 to 92 percent in 2024. The International Monetary Fund, however, says the economy is projected to start recovering after oil production resumed following the repair of a pipeline damaged in February 2024 in the war in Sudan, and which had halted exports. Last month, IMF staff and the South Sudanese authorities reached an agreement on a nine-month Staff-Monitored Programme (SMP) to start in August 2025. The SMP will support 'designing and implementing policies and key reforms to strengthen its economic resilience to shocks, enhance macroeconomic stability, restore sustainability, and improve governance and transparency,' a dispatch said. © Copyright 2022 Nation Media Group.

UAE pavilion at Expo Osaka 2025 welcomes two millionth visitor
The UAE's pavilion at Expo 2025 Osaka on Monday celebrated welcoming its two millionth visitor with an event merging Japanese and Emirati tradition. The palm tree-inspired pavilion – which pays homage to the country's rich history and enterprising vision for the future – has proven a hit with international crowds since the latest world's fair opened on April 13. The UAE team marked the milestone achievement with a special event inspired by the ancient Japanese festival of Tanabata, highlighting the pavilion's significant role in cultivating cultural connections from the Middle East to the Far East. The Tanabata – or star festival – celebrates the uniting of two deities which, according to legend, are separated by the Milky Way and can meet once a year only on the seventh day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar. It is typically marked by wishes being hung on bamboo branches. The UAE pavilion offered an Emirati twist to the festivities by instead using palm fronds as the natural canvas on which people expressed their hopes and dreams. Shihab Alfaheem, the UAE's ambassador to Japan, said the colourful event served to symbolise the deep-rooted friendship between the Emirates and Japan. 'We are deeply honoured to have welcomed two million visitors to the UAE pavilion," he said. "This reflects the world's interest, trust and connection with the UAE's journey. By celebrating this milestone during Tanabata, we not only honoured a cherished Japanese tradition but also embraced the spirit of cultural exchange that defines Expo 2025. Our pavilion continues to be a living space of ideas, creativity and shared values.' The pavilion's theme is Earth to Ether, which symbolises the UAE's journey towards a future guided by innovation, imagination and exploration. It seeks to tell the story of the country's work in the space sector, sustainability and health care, among other areas. The site hosts more than 40 programmes to encourage learning, collaboration and co-creation, while an on-site restaurant serves traditional Emirati food to bring national cuisine to an international audience. Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid, Vice President and Ruler of Dubai, visited the UAE's pavilion during a tour of Expo 2025 Osaka in April. 'I was impressed by the design of our national pavilion, inspired by the palm tree, which reimagines the traditional Arish – the old homes built from palm fronds and trunks. 'However, the content of the UAE Arish showcases our space projects, future initiatives in the health sector and our progress in sustainability projects. Sharing the UAE's story 'Our pavilion embodies our commitment to our authentic past and our passion for the future. Expo 2025 opened on April 13 and runs until October 13. It provides a global platform for more than 150 countries to showcase their heritage, achievements and enterprising plans for future progress. The six-month event in Japan comes after the success of Expo 2020 Dubai, the first world's fair to be held in the Middle East and North Africa, which recorded more than 24 million visits over six months. Expo 2025 Osaka attracted five million visits in its first six weeks, putting it on track to hit its 28 million target.

Mideast Stocks: Most Gulf markets gain on US trade progress
Most Gulf equities ended higher on Monday as U.S. President Donald Trump signalled progress on multiple trade agreements and announced extended tariff reprieves for several countries. The White House is close to finalising several trade agreements in the coming days and will notify other countries of higher tariffs by July 9, with the new rates effective August 1, Trump said on Sunday. Saudi Arabia's benchmark index rose 0.3%, helped by a 0.8% gain in oil giant Saudi Aramco. Oil shrugged off the impact of OPEC+ hiking output more than expected for August as well as concerns about the potential impact of U.S. tariffs, with prices mostly reversing early losses as a tight physical market lent support. In a show of confidence in oil demand, Saudi Arabia on Sunday raised the August price for its flagship Arab Light crude to a four-month high for Asia. The uncertainty surrounding oil prices, especially with OPEC+ gradually increasing production, remains a key risk for the Saudi market, said Joseph Dahrieh, managing principal at Tickmill. "However, the market could find support as Saudi Arabia expands its share in the oil market," he said. Dubai's benchmark index gained 0.9%, hitting a 17-year high, driven by financial shares. Emirates NBD jumped 2.3%, while Dubai Islamic Bank rose 1%. According to Dahrieh, the Dubai stock market's strong fundamentals suggest potential for further growth, while U.S. trade policy risks could continue to weigh on sentiment. In Abu Dhabi, the index added 0.3%, with Burjeel Holdings surging 14.7% after announcing expansion into Saudi Arabia. Meanwhile, Trump announced plans to impose an additional 10% tariff on countries aligning with the "anti-American policies" of the BRICS bloc, which includes the United Arab Emirates. While Saudi Arabia attended a BRICS meeting in April, it has not formally joined the group. Qatar's benchmark index added 0.5%, helped by a 1.5% increase in Qatar International Islamic Bank. Outside the Gulf, Egypt's blue-chip index finished 0.4% higher, with electronic payments provider Fawry climbing 2.4%. SAUDI ARABIA rose 0.3% to 11,345 ABU DHABI up 0.3% to 10,007 DUBAI advanced 0.9% to 5,803 QATAR gained 0.5% to 10,801 EGYPT added 0.4% to 33,038 OMAN was up 0.3% to 4,578 KUWAIT increased 0.5% to 9,193 (Reporting by Amna Mariyam and Ateeq Shariff in Bengaluru)
