Summary

TLDRDr. Boj discusses the various challenges South Sudan faces due to historical centralization of resources and suggests how the Jing Developmental Model can address these issues. Historically, regimes from the Anglo-Egyptian period through to the present have centralized resources without promoting grassroots development, leading to disparities in growth and opportunity. The Jing Developmental Model proposes a bottom-up approach, focusing on grassroots initiatives as opposed to centralized control. This involves establishing local administrative units at the payam and buma levels, fostering community-based security managed by locals, and utilizing oil revenues to stimulate local economies. Furthermore, it stresses the importance of NGOs working in partnership with local communities rather than operating independently. Overall, the model advocates for sustainable growth through grassroots empowerment and decentralization, aiming to correct past mistakes where resource control was concentrated in the hands of a few, excluding the wider population from benefiting from development efforts.

Timeline

00:00:00 - 00:05:00
Dr. Boj begins by reviewing foundational theories of societal development, such as Plato's classes of the perfect city, Adam Smith's division of labor, Frederick Taylor's Scientific Management Theory, and Maslow's hierarchy of needs. He shifts focus to South Sudan's historical challenges, starting from the Anglo-Egyptian era to post-independence structural issues, emphasizing the persistent centralization of resources and lack of development in southern regions, leading to rebellion and persistent regional disparities.
00:05:00 - 00:10:59
Dr. Boj discusses the proposal of the Jing Developmental Model as a solution to South Sudan's issues, advocating for a grassroots approach akin to starting 'small fires' in multiple areas to ensure widespread development. This model opposes historical centralization, advocating for local administration and development at the payam and buma levels. It emphasizes community-driven security and trusts locals to kickstart the economy using local resources and partnerships, including NGOs, to ensure a balanced and sustainable approach.

this is Dr boj with Jing developmental
00:00:02
model on the last videos I explained the
00:00:06
theoretical foundations for Jing
00:00:08
development
00:00:09
model I'll cover Plato ideas of perfect
00:00:13
City where he discussed the social
00:00:15
classes that make up the city which
00:00:18
includes the Guardians which are the
00:00:20
leaders of the city the auxiliaries
00:00:23
which are the militaries and and the
00:00:25
police to protect the city and then the
00:00:27
workers which is the General Public
00:00:31
I also cover Adam Smith's idea of
00:00:34
division of labor and his specialization
00:00:36
of
00:00:38
skills we cover Frederick Taylor's
00:00:41
Scientific Management Theory where he
00:00:44
proposed that managers should be the one
00:00:46
dividing the task for workers to
00:00:48
execute and finally we discuss Mass law
00:00:52
hierarchy of needs which highlighted
00:00:55
what Basics human needs must be covered
00:00:57
for human to flourish or to experience a
00:01:01
good
00:01:02
life on this video we will review South
00:01:06
Sudan problem from historical and
00:01:09
organizational structure
00:01:14
perspective so when we look at South
00:01:16
Sudan problem from historical
00:01:18
perspective we could start all the way
00:01:20
to Anglo Egyptian era which is in the
00:01:23
late
00:01:24
1800s to the
00:01:26
1950s so the Anglo Egyptians
00:01:30
regimes established as the
00:01:33
headquarters so that's where they
00:01:35
established their headquarters so they
00:01:37
could be able to execute their
00:01:40
operations throughout
00:01:43
Sudan and then when cartoon or when
00:01:47
Sudan become an independent country in
00:01:50
1956 carum carry on that Legacy and
00:01:54
established carum as the headquarters
00:01:56
for
00:01:58
Sudan and they also establish Juba as
00:02:03
the as the central area where they can
00:02:06
execute their operation on the southern
00:02:08
part of of Sudan which is autonomous
00:02:11
which was known as autonomous
00:02:13
South so during ktoon regime there was
00:02:17
no distribution of resources and the
00:02:20
development was placed on the northern
00:02:24
part so there is no development in the
00:02:28
South and and that was the major theme
00:02:32
why many saudin rebelled because there
00:02:36
was disparities of resources they there
00:02:40
was no share of resources from the north
00:02:43
but there was a central area where they
00:02:45
control the resources and they could be
00:02:47
able to control the North and the
00:02:49
South and then in 2005 when the peace
00:02:52
happened could say Juba or SPM
00:02:55
established Juba as the central part of
00:02:57
South Sudan
00:03:00
the same thing the SPM Consolidated and
00:03:02
centralized all the resources in the
00:03:04
capital
00:03:06
Juba again no distribution of resources
00:03:09
and development to the rest of South
00:03:11
Sudan villages in payam especially payam
00:03:14
and
00:03:14
bumas so what is the current estate now
00:03:17
for for sa Sudan then so it is it is
00:03:20
similar to previous
00:03:23
regime from the Anglo Egyptian to the
00:03:26
cartoon regime and now Juba so there is
00:03:30
no distribution of
00:03:32
resources just like it happens in Anglo
00:03:35
Egyptian there was no distribution of
00:03:37
resources to Sudan and South Sudan so
00:03:39
they just have that Central Area to
00:03:41
where they can be able to control the
00:03:43
population but no development was pushed
00:03:46
to the lower level the same thing with
00:03:48
cartoon when cartoon was controlling the
00:03:52
Sudan they centralized the resources and
00:03:55
they were not they were not pushing it
00:03:57
down to the grassroot level
00:04:00
and right now what is so what is the
00:04:03
problem right now in South Sudan what
00:04:06
what is it that we can identify as the
00:04:10
problem so if we look at the problem of
00:04:13
South
00:04:15
Sudan I want to use that this
00:04:19
analogy so imagine you are you have a
00:04:23
grassland and in that grassland you want
00:04:27
to set it on fire and you want to you
00:04:30
want to see which how you want to see
00:04:34
what is the most efficient way for the
00:04:36
fire to cover that
00:04:38
grassland first you could have one
00:04:42
central location to where you set the
00:04:45
fire on it and then that it can spread
00:04:48
from that to other areas that's a one
00:04:52
way or you could have multiple areas
00:04:56
where you set fire on multiple locations
00:05:00
and then they can spread from there and
00:05:02
cover the more area so between those two
00:05:06
which one would be more efficient it
00:05:08
would obviously be having multiple areas
00:05:12
set far on multiple areas so they could
00:05:14
be able to cover more
00:05:16
areas uh for
00:05:19
fires
00:05:20
similarly the jingi development models
00:05:23
want to set a small fires to ensure the
00:05:26
whole field is burned quickly
00:05:30
metaphorically speaking so if we
00:05:35
establish the
00:05:38
developmental initiative at the
00:05:39
grassroot level that is similar to
00:05:42
setting fires in multiple
00:05:44
areas in contrast however as as we see
00:05:47
on the last on this from this historical
00:05:51
perspective we realize that each Empire
00:05:55
or regime focus on focus on just
00:06:00
establishing a a centralized
00:06:03
government where they could be able to
00:06:05
control the
00:06:07
mass however with jingi developmental
00:06:10
model the jingi developmental model is
00:06:13
proposing that rather than making that
00:06:15
historical mistake we can go to the
00:06:18
grassroot and establish the small fires
00:06:21
there and that that is gr grassroot is
00:06:25
payam and bulma's level if we are able
00:06:28
to do that at that
00:06:30
level then we could be able to make sure
00:06:35
the development is
00:06:36
reaching the very small element of the
00:06:40
society and you won't be making the same
00:06:43
mistake where a central government is
00:06:46
controlling everything and they're not
00:06:48
it's not reaching the grassroot so now
00:06:52
that we know the problem of South Sudan
00:06:55
from the historical
00:06:58
perspective how is Jing me developmental
00:07:01
model is proposing to solve that
00:07:04
problem the Jing developmental model
00:07:07
proposed that it should be a bottomup
00:07:10
approach to the development and even
00:07:14
Administration rather than historical
00:07:16
approaches where the past regime focus
00:07:20
on having a centralized government and
00:07:23
controlling the Mass from there the Jing
00:07:26
developmental model in contrast
00:07:30
wants to start the start the development
00:07:33
at the lower echon and working its way
00:07:36
up and that means establishing local
00:07:39
Administration area at the payam and
00:07:41
buma level which is the lowest aelon for
00:07:43
the for South Sudan current
00:07:46
instructure and also it can
00:07:50
involve other people that has expertise
00:07:53
in in in those areas especially those in
00:07:56
diasporas they could be able to
00:07:59
coach
00:08:01
Mentor the
00:08:02
locals to make that transition from the
00:08:06
The Village Life to to a city
00:08:09
life and another way the Jing
00:08:13
developmental model wants to solve sou
00:08:16
Sudan problem is EST
00:08:18
establishing Community Based security at
00:08:21
the grassroot level and the locals
00:08:24
should be the one that that are
00:08:26
responsible for that security initiative
00:08:29
because they want that ownership of
00:08:31
their own security not to say that the
00:08:34
government cannot help but the people
00:08:36
that should drive that change should be
00:08:38
the
00:08:39
local so and that would be the payam uh
00:08:43
local security buma security of security
00:08:47
U
00:08:48
personnel and then another way the jingu
00:08:51
developmental model wants to solve this
00:08:54
problem is to
00:08:56
establish the economy or jump start the
00:08:59
local economies using oil revenues and
00:09:02
other uh other resources such as from
00:09:06
the developmental Partners or from the
00:09:09
loans from other countries but that
00:09:11
should those should be established or
00:09:13
those should be used to jump start the
00:09:15
economy rather than using it as a
00:09:18
sustaining resources for
00:09:20
it and also attract and establish local
00:09:24
businesses as payam level payam level
00:09:27
cuz that that is the where majority the
00:09:29
people live so you want that area to be
00:09:32
secure and and be able to have business
00:09:34
there that can support the the the the
00:09:38
business or or support the uh the the
00:09:42
government and also
00:09:44
using NGO efficiently NOS
00:09:48
efficiently the NOS could be able to can
00:09:51
play part in this and and this
00:09:56
developmental
00:09:57
initiative by identifying where the
00:10:01
locals need help the most and partnering
00:10:04
with the locals to make sure that
00:10:06
problem is being tackled what we don't
00:10:09
want is that for the
00:10:12
NOS to be treated like the pro the the
00:10:16
one that should solve all the problem no
00:10:18
they should be partnering with the
00:10:20
locals to solve locals problem rather
00:10:24
than just relying on them to solve those
00:10:27
things so the jingu developmental model
00:10:29
wants to have that partnership with with
00:10:33
with the locals or have Nos and local
00:10:37
partnership so they can work together to
00:10:39
optimize their uh optimize their outputs
00:10:43
right so that's it for jingu
00:10:45
developmental
00:10:47
model again the jingi developmental
00:10:50
model is different from other structure
00:10:53
because he wants to focus on the bottom
00:10:55
up approach rather than top- down
00:10:57
approach
