TUNISIAN BUSINESS PEOPLE WANT CHANGE
Tunisia is now in the middle of a period of political instability as a direct result of the successful adoption of the country's new constitution in a referendum that was conducted on July 25. Al Jazeera met with a range of small businesses, and all of them agreed that a fundamental change is essential to tackle the economic crisis that is now affecting the country, equalise the playing field, and aid Tunisians who are entrepreneurial. When Kais Saied was elected president in 2019, he ran on a platform that opposed corruption and promised to advocate for Tunisians.

However, the nation was still dealing with severe economic issues at the time. The kleptocratic dictatorship of Zine El Abidine Ben Ali was brought to an end by the revolution of 2011, but the nation was still struggling with these issues when Kais Saied was elected. Since he came to power in Tunisia in July of last year, Saied has dismantled Tunisia's anti-corruption body, despite the fact that he has a reputation for being opposed to corrupt practises and working to combat them. This authority has twenty offices all throughout the nation that were devoted to investigating accusations of corruption and establishing more transparent governance in central and local government. These offices were responsible for developing more open governance in both levels of government.
Tunisia has slid further into an economic catastrophe as the cost of living has risen, hurting the poor and middle class equally, amid shortages of essential items and growing unemployment. Small companies have been affected hard by the economic crisis, say retailers, since the government hasn't addressed fundamental issues that restrict competition and innovation.
