Observers are doubtful over government's efficiency to implement the ambitious plans outlined at the Kabul conference." Holding an international conference on Afghanistan once again raised the ray of hopes among Afghans for better future but lack of capacity in the government to manage the assistance would gradually disappoint the people," a former diplomat and political analyst Ahmadi Saeedi observed.
He also was of the view that Afghan national security forces at this juncture are not able to assume security charges unless the ground and air forces are properly equipped in terms of quality and quantity.
Canada will end its military mission in Afghanistan in 2011. President Barack Obama also announced to begin the pull out of U.S. troops from Afghanistan next July.
"Announcing troop pullout would encourage the Taliban insurgents to enhance their activities and rebuff the peace talks offered by the government," another political observer and former Taliban official Waheed Mughda maintained.
However, he described the consent of international community to channelize 50 percent of the donor nations' contribution through the government budget as a big achievement for Afghanistan.
Meantime, he emphasized that no strategy would succeed unless it improves the living conditions of people, otherwise, the Kabul Conference will be forgotten like previous ones.
The inflexibility of Taliban outfit and insufficient capacity of government to tackle corruption in its earliest would serve as obstacle to move ahead.
