South Sudan’s Letter Pledges a National Shift to Credit-to-Credit Money

A Nation Ready to Close the Chapter on Fiat Hardship
South Sudan, the world’s youngest country, won its independence in 2011 after decades of civil war. The euphoria of statehood soon collided with hyper-inflation, oil-price swings, and renewed conflict. Yet beneath those hardships stands a resilient people and a government determined to secure peace and prosperity under President Salva Kiir Mayardit and his economic team, chaired by Vice-President Prof. James Wani Igga.
For years the Ministry of Finance wrestled with a currency whose value could evaporate between harvests; debt service crowded out roads, water, and health clinics. By late 2023, Juba’s policymakers began asking a deeper question: Is there a monetary framework that ends our dependence on borrowed money altogether? Can we build a monetary system that no longer begins life as debt?
An Open Door: The Vice-President’s Mandate
On 10 November 2024 the Office of the Vice-President authorized the Christian Agency for Peace and Development (CAPAD) to enlist international partners—funders, bankers, developers—while stressing one pre-condition: monetary stability. The invitation landed on Globalgood’s desk within days, signaling that Juba was serious about exploring the Credit-to-Credit (C2C) Monetary System.
Phase 0 Completed — A Quiet Foundation (Nov 2024 → Jan 2025)
- Hybrid meetings linked Juba and Reynoldsburg.
- Stakeholders mapped across ministries, the central bank, and civil society.
- A nine-phase road map was drafted—with freedom for South Sudan’s parliament to reorder steps to suit its own procedures.
- Central Ura Reserve Limited confirmed advisory support and reserve capacity sufficient to make every legitimate creditor whole.
Result: a Letter of Appreciation and Commitment from South Sudan, closing Phase 0 and opening the door to constitutional work.
March 2025 — From Mandate to Ministry
A follow-up letter from the Minister of Investment (11 March 2025) invited Globalgood to coordinate a scoping mission covering water, power, infrastructure, and food security—all to be financed in asset-backed terms from day one. Cabinet-level ownership means the transition is now embedded in government machinery, not confined to an advisory desk.
The C2C Fit
- Resource-rich, cash-starved — oil, arable land, carbon-credit potential can now become reserves that anchor a value-stable pound.
- Creditor-safe — the global Central Ura pool is large enough to honor existing claims; no bond haircut is required.
- Community dividend — salaries, clinics, and school budgets paid in honest money hold their value, buying time for peace-building.
A Flexible Schedule to December 2025
South Sudan has adopted a compressed—but adjustable—timeline:
Phase 1 Legal & Constitutional Framework – workshops and public hearings slated to finish mid-April 2025.
Phase 2 Reserve Allocation & Full-Reserve Banking – April → June.
Phase 3 Currency Legislation & Central-Bank Protocols – July → August.
Phase 4 Technical Roll-Out – production and distribution planned for September.
Phase 5 Public-Debt Conversion – October.
Phase 6 National Awareness Campaign – November.
Phase 7 Private-Sector Alignment & Review – early-to-mid-December.
Phase 8 ISO Registration & International Notification – December window.
All phases may be re-sequenced to respect parliamentary calendars or security constraints; Globalgood stands ready to provide guidance whenever asked.
Central Ura—Why Confidence Is Possible
Central Ura (URU) is held in classified custody under internationally audited protocols. The reserve is already ample to retire unpayable public debt, recapitalize local banks, and guarantee contractual continuity for creditors large and small. This generosity springs from private owners who have pledged their assets anonymously until the liberation work is done—an act of quiet service to humanity.
Markers to Watch
- Legal workshop in Nairobi — underway.
- Reserve-allocation conference — slated for April 2025.
- Founding Holders Portal — already live, allowing global citizens to underwrite the transition.
Each milestone tightens the loop between South Sudan’s aspirations and the wider C2C architecture.
