Widespread corruption perpetuates the suffering and, directly and indirectly, supports conflict, thereby undermining the progress South Sudanese envisioned when they declared statehood.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In March this year, the United States affirmed its commitment to continue supporting the South Sudanese peoples\u2019 long unmet expectations for peace, democracy, human rights, and a government that uses public resources for the common good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The extension came a few days after South Sudan\u2019s leader, Salva Kiir, led a high-level delegation to China, where they met President Xi Jimping and discussed issues related to governance, strengthening ties between South Sudan\u2019s ruling party, SPLM, and the Communist Party of China besides promoting investment and Chinese influence in the fields of mining, agriculture, road infrastructure, and oil exploration among others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>South Sudan has evolved into a police state, where the government silences, imprisons, or causes a forced disappearance of political critics, weaponises the civic and political space, and suppresses the media and civil society activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A few days ago, the country\u2019s security agents deployed at the printing facilities removed news articles from the independent newspaper, signifying the growing media censorship posing threats to democracy in the world\u2019s youngest nation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A new ICRC report released last week sheds light on the plight of the families of missing people in South Sudan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The report indicates that over 5,700 cases of missing people are currently being followed by the ICRC and the South Sudan Red Cross.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The actual number of missing people in South Sudan is probably much higher, as most disappearances are yet to be documented.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u00a9&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>Golden Times | South
