Doing business in politically unstable countries can be pretty risky, as some Ugandans doing business in South Sudan have found out since December 2013. They say they are still waiting for the government of South Sudan to pay some $ 41 M dollars owed for grain bought between 2008 and 2010. The grain sellers say an assortment of maize and sorghum worth $ 56 M dollars was bought but only $ 15 M dollars of that, has been paid for. Ugandan Government officials say they are working with their counterparts in South Sudan to ensure the debt is cleared.
