(23.01.2012) Half a year after the founding of the new state of South Sudan, the joy of the people has turned into a fear for their survival. Conflicts concerning the limited resources of pastures, cattle and water supplies have broken out in many towns and villages.

Poverty and hunger is causing sections of the population to steal livestock. In addition, many smaller tribes are unhappy due to their lack of representation in the new government.
