Economic payback eludes Tunisians

  • 12 years ago
Tunisians will go to the polls to elect a new government on Sunday. But there are still many who have not yet decided if they will participate.

Unemployment is one of the key issues in the country, and decades of economic exclusion have left some feeling like there is no point in voting.

There are more than a 100 political parties taking part in the election, but the Islamic party, al-Nahda, has become one of the biggest over the last 10 months. Not only is it one of the best organised parties, it is also promising Tunisians freedom, justice, and more importantly, economic growth.
