For many years the Republic of Sudan has struggled with its political and social conditions along with its on-going conflict with South Sudan. However, lately tourism, particularly scuba diving and fishery, is leading the country toward a better future. Despite these small in-roads the country's lack of infrastructure, isolation from big markets and minimal access to basic business needs like trucks and refrigerators make success very difficult.
