		Ouyahia had stood firm in the face of demands by politicians, media and trade unions to raise wages, arguing the economic climate was not healthy enough.
		Ouyahia's RND formed an alliance with the FLN and moderate Islamists to cement support for Bouteflika's policy, which focuses on restoring peace after more than a decade of violence in which more than 150,000 people were killed.
		Commentators said the departure of Ouyahia, whose secularist views clashed with his Islamist and conservative partners in the government he led, would be a loss for the anti-Islamist camp and a gain for the conservatives who cement their alliance with moderate Islamists.

		Ouyahia's unpopularity was exacerbated by his intransigence in the face of repeated strikes by teachers, vets, doctors, and by workers who claimed their jobs were threatened by the privatisation of public sector organisations, which the former prime minister was determined to push through.
		Ouyahia is secretary general of the National Democratic Rally (RND), one of the parties in the governing coalition, which also includes the dominant National Liberation Front (FNL) and the Islamist Movement of a Peaceful Society (MSP).
		Ouyahia and Belkhadem also clashed over plans to revise the constitution, increasing the number of presidential terms from the present two to three, with Ouyahia against the scheme.

		There was nothing earthshaking in the policy announcement by Abdelaziz Belkhadem, the man who replaced Ahmed Ouyahia as Algeria's new prime minister on 24 May. The priorities of his government, Belkhadem said, are to amend the constitution ahead of the 2007 legislative elections and increase wages within the coming few months.
		Ouyahia's reaction to the new policy was dismissive.
		In fact, Ouyahia is facing discontent within his own party, and some of his critics are trying to oust him from the leadership.

		Presenting the government's new program to the National Assembly Saturday, Prime Minister Ahmed Ouyahia said his government was determined to stamp out the Muslim militants, and now had the upper hand against the guerrillas.
		Ouyahia's three-party coalition cabinet is dominated by President Liamine Zeroual's supporters and includes seven moderate Islamists and seven members of the former ruling National Liberation Front.
		Ouyahia expressed "legitimate optimism" about economic progress, but admitted that ordinary Algerians were probably not yet feeling the benefit of economic developments such as lower inflation and higher international reserves.

	TelQuel : Le Maroc tel qu'il est
		Officiellement et dans une formidable langue de bois, Ahmed Ouyahia a “présenté sa démission au président, qui l'a acceptée et lui a rendu hommage”.
		En poste depuis 2003, Ouyahia a finalement claqué la porte, éreinté par les attaques frontales et répétitives de Belkhadem et de Soltani, lesquels ont revendiqué clairement son départ et son remplacement par un “technocrate”, un chef de gouvernement sans aucune appartenance partisane.
		Ouyahia était opposé à ce renforcement des prérogatives de l'exécutif.

		The signals of the consequences of this move on the National Democratic Gathering (RND) stated to be seen on the surface.
		These observers see that the coalition cannot be held with Ouyahia on the top of the RND, considering his two allies, the National Liberation Front (FLN) and the Movement for Society and Peace were the first ones who asked for his removal from the top of the government.
		In this context, sources told El Khabar that movement in the RND have started to prepare for the period after Ouyahia, where concordant sources said that they have started efforts to remove Ahmed Ouyhia from the general secretaryship.

		A propos de la révision de la Constitution, M. Ouyahia a réitéré «le soutien» de son parti à la démarche du président de la République qui, est «porteuse de plus de stabilité», ajoutant que le RND considère que le régime semi-présidentiel demeure «le meilleur système valable pour l’Algérie».
		Au sujet des réformes engagées ces dernières années dans divers secteurs, M. Ouyahia a estimé que les avancés constatées, notamment dans le secteur de la justice sont «considérables, malgré le manque de performances enregistré».
		Pour Ahmed Ouyahia, il y a un Etat et un peuple et il serait ravageur d’enfermer la question salariale dans une couleur politique ou l’attribuer à des personnes et «nous serons des traîtres si, pour des calculs électoralistes ou de mandat, nous expédions l’avenir socio-économique du pays à la casse.»
