Ten years after formal independence, the government continued to be of a provisional nature. There were no indications that parliamentary or presidential elections were to take place soon. At the close of the elections for regional assemblies in April, the chairman of the electoral commission stated, without giving a specific time frame, that the next election would be for the national parliament. So far the People's Front for Democracy and Justice (PFDJ) is the sole active party. The drought, coupled with post-war effects, has created severe food shortages. The dearth of foreign currency seriously curbed government purchasing capacity, resulting in a general shortage of basic goods.
