Thank you, hon Mubu, for the question. Speaker, the Comprehensive Peace Agreement indeed provides for this referendum that would be conducted in the south, on whether the south wants to go it alone or to remain part of one integrated Sudan.
We cannot pre-empt the outcomes of such a referendum. In our engagement with the governing party in the Sudan and the governing party in the south, all we can do is to make clear the pros and cons of secession.
We believe that more advantages lie in the Sudan remaining one united entity rather than for the south to go it alone. This is precisely because, as I indicated earlier, there are still very big issues to be resolved. For instance, the border between the south and the north has not been determined, and if you add to that challenge the fact that this border is likely to be drawn across oil fields, then you have an ingredient there for instability and conflict going forward.
The situation in Darfur is a work in progress. As we know, former President Mbeki led the Committee of the Wise, which made its report available to the AU on 29 October 2009. We are still waiting for the AU's assessment of the report and the steps that will flow out of the recommendations of that report. For now, all we know is that all efforts are being made to try to get all people who are not Darfurians out of that area in order to enhance peace and stability in Darfur itself, which we hope will hold. Thank you.
