	Stabilizing the Liberian dollar and Consumer Prices (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		This was the first time that the dollar fell to such highs since it lost its fixed official parity with the US dollar at the end of 1997.
		The dollar depreciated further, falling to L$57.50:US$1 at the end of July, according to the IMF, and again to L$60:US$1 on August 6th.
		However, reports from the capital indicate that consumer prices have remained generally high in the country, confirming the belief that while propping up the dollar may have temporarily reversed the decline of the currency, such a measure is not enough to maintain long-term price stability, the chief monetary policy objective of the government.

		To add insult to injury, it appears intended and designed that these “international partner” are to displace (or at least marginalize) their Liberian counterparts who are naturally much better placed to understand and find workable solutions for the underlying problems.
		For unless Liberian professionals are made an integral part of the solution process in a way that gives them pride in owning the end results (thereby motivating them to permanently preserve the cleaned up system), the solutions, if any, that may be found under the proposed approach are likely to be temporary at best.
		That is, Liberian professionals must be actively involved in the process if the proposed measures are to succeed and have their intended effects on a permanent or long term basis.
