On Thursday, January 2, 2025, Tunisian President Kaïs Saïed met with Prime Minister Kamel Madouri at the Carthage Palace to address key issues linked to government operations. The discussions focused on economic and social challenges, as well as persistent delays in implementing public projects.
A Call for Efficiency and Streamlined Administration
President Saïed criticized the bureaucratic inefficiencies that hinder the progress of vital projects. He stressed that substantial funds have already been allocated, yet many initiatives remain stalled.
“It is unacceptable that responding to a correspondence takes months,” Saïed said. “Every minute wasted prolongs the suffering of our citizens.” He urged the government to adopt a more efficient approach to ensure that resources are translated into tangible outcomes.
A Year of Hope and Renewal
As 2025 begins, Saïed voiced optimism, calling for innovative solutions to overcome the challenges inherited from the past. He described the new year as an opportunity for a decisive turning point, where collective efforts and dynamic governance could bring citizens’ aspirations to fruition.
Growing Pressure for Results
This call to action comes at a time of increasing public pressure on the government to revitalize the economy and address social demands. Delayed projects, especially in infrastructure and public services, have become a source of frustration for many Tunisians. Saïed urged immediate mobilization to ensure these initiatives are completed swiftly.
A Vision for Tangible Progress
In conclusion, President Saïed emphasised the urgency of action, calling on the government to make 2025 a transformative year marked by concrete results. “We must meet the legitimate expectations of our citizens,” he declared, underscoring the need for decisive steps to restore hope and confidence among the Tunisian people.
