User talk:Dhaal Mapuor

My name is Dhaal Mapuor Aterdit Dhaal. I am named in memory of my great grandfather. He was an Executive Chief during the British rule in the Sudan. I was born in 1984. Just a year after the civil war broke out in the country. After a decade I was sent by my mother to a certain village school called Dhiau-kuei Primary School. It was a school ran by Catholic Missionaries. When I completed my final term examination of class two, my parents relocated to Akantoch village. This was due to erosion and total infertility of the land that we occupied since we were depending on small scale subsistence farming. In 1997, I joined Akantoch Primary School. In this school I learnt that it was not as equipped as my previous school. But I eventually liked it because of its outstanding rules and regulations. It reshaped me from my cynicism a truthful and obedient young boy. In 1999, the school was closed due to lack of teachers and I got admitted to Titagok Primary School, a school half ran by missionaries and the UN agencies under supervision of SPLM/A.

As time went on, our class was transfered to Baraliap Complex Primary School. This was done based on the educational system in place which doesn't allow upper classes to operate in some schools. In Baraliap, I graduated as a primary school leaver. It was 2002 when I set for Primary Leaving Certificate {PLC}. That was a year when hot peace talks between SPLM/A and Sudan Government were first tabled in a Kenyan town of Machakos. The peace negotiations remained on the desk from 2002 untill 2005 when the official signing of Comprehensive Peace Agreement was made. That was a period of three years.

In 2003, I joined Rumbek Senior Secondary School untill 2006 when I went to Wau to sit for Sudan School Certificate of Secondary Education. The year 2007 marked my final year in high school and paves my way to the University. As I am typing these words I am undergoing studies in University of Juba. I am doing Bachelor of Science in Communications Development, Third year. However, as regards my work experience, I am now serving as A Communications and Public Relations Officer in the Governor's office - Lakes State - Rumbek.
