| | MSF: Sierra Leone: Traumatized civilians are rocked by renewed violence |
 | | In the southern province, MSF continues to support three hospitals and 28 clinics in Pujehun, Bo and Bonthe. | | | This spring's renewed fighting forced the evacuation of most programs in the northern province. | | | For MSF, the situation in Sierra Leone is an example of all that can be aggressive to a civilian population. |

| | USCR: 1998 Country Reports: Sierra Leone |
| | Sierra Leoneans Flee The anarchy in Freetown and the belief that a large scale ECOMOG attack was imminent led tens of thousands of Freetown residents to flee to interior regions, including Kambia, near the western border with Guinea, Bo, in south-central Sierra Leone, and Makeni, in Northern Province. | | | In a separate letter to U.S. Attorney General Janet Reno, USCR argued that a TPS designation "might save the lives of at least a few Sierra Leoneans." USCR wrote to U.S. INS Commissioner Doris Meissner in August, asking that she recommend TPS be granted to Sierra Leoneans. | | | Despite ongoing violence, Sierra Leoneans in February and March 1996 elected as president a civilian, Ahmad Tejan Kabbah. |

| | Of the few household expenditure studies which allow assessment of African rural consumption linkages, the most comparable were uiadertaken for farm households in Gusau, Northern Nigeria (Hazell and Roell, 1983), rural households in Sierra Leone (King and Byerlee, 1977), and households in three villages in Zaria Province, Northern Nigeria (Simmons, 1976b). | | | These are suumarized in Table 9 together with comparable results for farm house- holds from two Asian studies: the Mud& region of Malaysia (Hazoll and Roell, 1983) and North Arcot district, South India (Hazell and Ramasamy, forthcoming). | | | We hypothesize that the absence of relatively cheap, labor-intensive goods and services in rural areas will result in a slower shift of demand from foods to services in Sub-Saharan Africa than in Asia, with consequent weaker demand linkages to the rural nonfarm economy. |
