Post-electoral Issues
New names for an independent country were being suggested, with South Sudan being controversial as it does not offer a break from Sudan. Over 12 names had been suggested, including Nile Republic, Kush Republic and Azania.
The SPLM proposed naming the country South Sudan, with Nile Republic and Cush as other possibilities. The country was then officially named Republic of South Sudan.
Amongst the issues to be handled by a new government are job creation.

Famous quotes containing the word issues:
“How to attain sufficient clarity of thought to meet the terrifying issues now facing us, before it is too late, is ... important. Of one thing I feel reasonably sure: we can’t stop to discuss whether the table has or hasn’t legs when the house is burning down over our heads. Nor do the classics per se seem to furnish the kind of education which fits people to cope with a fast-changing civilization.”
—Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
