Dr. Benjamin Bol Mel

My deepest gratitude to H.E. President Gen. Salva Kiir Mayardit and to the people of South Sudan for the honour of serving our nation.

The Government of H.E. President Salva Kiir Mayardit welcomes investors from all friendly nations to participate in building this land of opportunity - all in an effort to create a resilient, diversified, and inclusive economy for our people.

Dr. Bona Malwal Madut Ring was a noble man and consummate professional - one who, even amid the most intense debates, never allowed himself or his audience to lose focus on what brought us together, nor on our shared dream of one people and one nation. He also believed in the power of dialogue, always extending a hand and words of calm wisdom whenever called upon.

May we all find comfort in knowing that Hon. Dr. Bona Malwal rests in eternal peace - his legacy forever etched in the history of this nation as one of its greatest statesmen.
