Liberian President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf delivered her annual message to the National Legislature on January 28th to report on the state of the nation. After reviewing accomplishments under the four pillars of the interim Poverty Reduction Strategy (iPRS) – Peace and Security, Economic Revitalization, Governance and Rule of Law, Infrastructure and Basic Services - she said “[Liberia] continues to enjoy the confidence of non official partners…the Scott Family Fellowship and Senior Executive Service provide important support for the enhancement of our national capacity.†Certainly credit and thanks go to Ed Scott and his family for starting this new program, which is clearly contributing in meaningful ways to Liberia’s development during this critical post-conflict period.
