The power and power of money – these are my visions – ✍️ Abdul Aziz Abdul Wahab
From Tuesday, December 10, 2024, a new Sudanese pound was born. We hope that she will be healthy, free from rickets and collapse, a pound exalted in fear and covered with the power of covering and cleansing, like. the one who covered it during the period 1958-1978.
At that time, the pound was linked to the US dollar at the rate of $2.87156 for each Sudanese pound.
At that time, Sudan had only land, water and (merit), and today the land has not left its place and has not been stingy with gifts, and here is the water which still flows above us and under our feet like a flowing stream of water. cascade.
But today we are in dire need of merit, imagination and good management to restore the glory and prestige of the pound.
Many changes have affected the pound since its launch in 1960, when the Central Bank was established, and in 1970 the currency was modified to introduce modern techniques to prevent counterfeiting.
In an approach that can be described as political seduction and economic futility; The dinar was issued in place of the pound sterling in 1992, but after the signing of the Naivasha Accord, the dinar was canceled and the pound was returned to circulation from 2007 AD. Subsequently, a new version of the pound was introduced after the southern secession in 2011.
The current change is considered the most important economically and politically, as it comes in the shadow of the war waged by the Rapid Support militia, which led to the largest looting of funds from individuals, businesses and banks, including the Bank of Sudan, what can be described as the largest process of sabotage of the Sudanese economy since its independence.
The current process of change goes beyond motivations to avoid counterfeiting, despite the circulation of many rumors on this subject, especially after discussions about the government of Dr Abdullah Hamdok handing over (cliché) Sudanese currency to the Emirates, in a scene steeped in work. and political and moral exaggeration.
Let the evil state take over the printing press behind the government's eyes; Especially in the category of 500 and 1,000 pounds, with which the country was flooded with currency used to finance the operations of the Rapid Support Gangs.
Much has been made of the government's delay in making the decision to abolish or change the currency, which has led to enemy control over the economy and trade and a dizzying rise in the price of the dollar, to its clandestine introduction into neighboring countries and (laundering) in the form of real estate, gold and enormous investments belonging to its perpetrators and those who collaborate with it.
(This case must be followed up by the government by pursuing its owners to recover this money by the methods it knows), to which is added an unforeseen deterioration in the value of the pound sterling, which has caused our products to lose their competitiveness across borders.
The decision-maker perhaps has his reasons and his motivations for this slowdown, the worrying consequences of which are not hidden, but we are somewhat relieved, due to the hoped-for control of liquidity for which there is practically no ceiling, by bringing it back within the banks and curbing withdrawals from them, which we hope will be controlled so as to achieve national objectives. The invisible.
There is reason to pay particular attention to this, both on a security and economic level, and it is the need for the government to avoid cases of simplification by closing the currency with the highest quality of safety and security. security, even if this leads to an increase in the exchange rate. printing cost, and for him to choose the latest and most durable types of printing paper, as well as the best security threads and labels. Watercolor and soluble colors.
We hope that it has adhered to international standards that ensure that it will not be exposed to tearing or contamination while enduring the different trading conditions with all their indifference and lack of respect for the national currency.
We also hope that you have provided it with what enhances its security with intertwined and impossible-to-falsify signs and designs.
If these measures are not implemented now, they must be corrected as quickly as possible in the other categories before their promulgation.
And it is more worthy than that; A special security apparatus must be established, specializing in the protection of the national currency, and laws must be promulgated providing severe penalties against smugglers, counterfeiters and even those who intentionally distort and tear it.
Sudan has been severely affected by the flood of billions of counterfeit currencies, perpetrated by hostile security forces, with the aim of bringing it to its political knees, impoverishing it economically and dismembering it socially. This is exactly what we are experiencing today. the most painful images and scenes!
As long as we start building a politically and economically vibrant Sudan, after eliminating the terrorist militia, its affiliates, its supporters and its dwarf incubator which is in national and political crisis, by securing and maintaining the sovereign currency and granting it the morally appropriate respect, is the first step towards an independent homeland that resists collapse and drowning in the swamps of political and economic humiliation.
Let everyone know that (liberating) the national currency from the hands of warriors and usurpers is no less impactful or dangerous than (liberating) cities and the state as a whole from sinful aggressors.
May you live long
