He added that the same ton in Chad costs only one dollar in fees.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Al-Anan called for unifying the fee window and stopping smuggling, along with setting clear policies for export partners and regulations for gum arabic exporters. He emphasized the need for coordination with government authorities to review export companies&#8217; records and impose a fee on exports to fund the division\u2019s operations. He also urged the government to support producers by providing services and seedlings for forests and forming organizations to fill gaps in the work. He pointed out that the division aims to support productive sectors to show that the private sector stands with the government in reforming the productive sectors, which have been destroyed by the war.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Al-Anan affirmed that the division has supported productive associations, research centers, forests, and several other entities with financial contributions to develop the process of producing and cultivating gum arabic.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sudan Events &#8211; Rehab Abdullah The head of the Gum Arabic Exporters Division, Ahmed Al-Anan, revealed a decline in the country\u2019s exports of gum arabic in the recent period, according to customs records.
