Aiding the people

Aaron Stewart ponders bottom-up development:

It constantly amazed me that for a country that was so lacking in basic infrastructure the South Sudan government had quickly mastered the art of bloated bureaucracy. Within this there is corruption and lots of it, greasing the palms of officials might get you what you want but your credibility will not win out in the end if word gets around to other agencies and donors that you operate this way...These things have only strengthened my resolve that whenever possible, obviously if possible, grass roots aid and development directly with the people that will benefit will help keep money out of the hands that see it as a chance to profit. There are no easy answers to this and I'm not proposing any, just processing.
