That people from those parts of the country are leaving seems to suggest a lack of confidence and certainty in the trajectory of this kind of economic development.” PeopleKindWarCountryMomentsSeemsGovernmentIssuesFocusEconomicParticularDevelopmentAreasArgumentLeavingTerrorismEastCertaintyPresent MomentPaceDefeatedEconomic DevelopmentTrajectoryLack Of Confidence Author:Paikiasothy Saravanamuttu
