Liberia: Concern Mounts Over LNTG's Failure To provide Services

The first meeting of the power sharing transitional government convened on September 20, 2004 with participants expressing serious concerns about the limited capacity of the government to deliver basic services to Liberians. While Liberia has made remarkable progress towards peace, there is still a lack of adequate funding for the reintegration and rehabilitation of ex-combatants, as well as for the return of refugees and the resettlement of internally displaced persons (IDPs).
