Reality: The Afghan people are dissatisfied with the current failed government!

 

 

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,

 

The government of President Ashraf Ghani is in office since September 2014 in Afghanistan.

Meanwhile 91 % of the Afghan people have lost confidence in the Afghan government.

It’s high time that this government resigns, because it has 100 % failed.

 

The government of Ashraf Ghani is envolved in nepotism and corruption.

Corruption and chaos can be found far and wide, including in the areas of ministries, the military, police, justice, customs, administration, etc. There is no functioning judicial system as well as control and administrative systems. More than half of tax revenues flow into the private pockets of corrupt rulers. Some government and administration positions are awarded in exchange for cash payments.

 

There are criminal gangs that make people's lives difficult in every city. They kidnap wealthy civilians to extort payments of money. The government is unable to control the situation and to maintain order.

 

The sexual abuse of children (underage boys) has been increased in Ahghanistan and the government has totally failed to prevent the crime.

 

The mineral resources in Afghanistan have been looted by various criminal groups.

Many public and private properties have been illegally taken by rulers.

 

Since the government of Ashraf Ghani is in office, the economy of the country is going down. It occurs capital fligt there, because the Afghan people haven lost confidience in the future and there is no security in the country.

 

President Ashraf Ghani still has no significant influence in Kabul or Afghanistan. There is no Afghan state in the towns and villages of Afghanistan, instead it is the warlords and local rulers who call the shots.

 

The fight against opium cultivation and drug trafficking has come to a standstill. A lot of officials are envolved in drug trafficking and due to their personal gain they are never interested to prevent the drug crime.

 

The transparent investigation into the Kabulbank scandal promised by the government is not being moved along. 

 

The war in Afghanistan has lasted for 37 years. The terrorists are still not defeated. The intended peace process with the Taliban has failed. The Government of Ashraf Ghani has failed to bring peace and failed to bring stability to the country. Some of government officials have closed relation with Taliban an ISIS Groups, therefore such people do not work for the peace and stability in Afghanistan. 

 

Above all, Afghan women are suffering the most. In practice, there is no real equality between women and men. Women's rights continue to be violated, as before. There can be no talk of democracy and freedom.

 

The government of Ashraf Ghani has also failed in other areas, among them environmental protection, infrastructure, relief efforts for refugees who have returned and so on. Unemployment has risen. The people are afraid of terrorist and criminal gangs. There is a lack of security and prospects for the future. The poorest of the poor must suffer from these conditions the most. All this has meant that the number of refugees from Afghanistan has increased one year on. Furthermore, the risk continues to increase that the reactionary Taliban and these terrorists will get a greater response and as a result their numbers will continue to grow. The influence of these extremely dangerous groups grows larger by the day.

 

We must never forget the terrorist attack of 11 September 2001 and also the other terrorist attacks around the world. The government of Afghanistan should provide all necessary support to the international community in fight against terrorism.

 

The government of Ashraf Ghani has failed not only in domestic policy but also pursues a very weak policy in foreign affairs.

  

President Ashraf Ghani uses lofty slogan and big promises during his speeches to Afghans and foreign guests, without translating them into action.

 

Should the government of Ashraf Ghani remain in office, this will continue to be a waste of time and money. The frustration of the Afghan people will thus continue.

The president should not just assume political leadership but also moral leadership. He should be the driving force of the nation which leads the people into a better present and an even better future. The current president has never achieved this goal. Afghanistan seems to be vegetating from a cancer in the face of national and international economy cliques. A sleaze of parties, local leaders, drug barons and clans is preventing the country’s recovery. In case of continuation of this government, this cancer will continue to spread resulting in growing corruption, growing poverty for the mass of Afghanis and growing suffering.

Only a very small part of the enormous amounts of money provided by the US and Europe for the reconstruction of the country has being invested into such important projects. Most of the money oozes away (into dark channels).

 

The opportunities for a peacefull and democratic Afghanistan are still there, especially if the Western world supports Afghanistan with financial resources, politcal and economic „know-how“ and soldiers. But don`t forget, that these targets cannot be met with Ashraf Ghani`s corrupt government, as above explained.

 

 

Yours faithfully
