Khartoum State made a good start by being at the head of the table by writing its vision (Safe civilized and distinguished State)
There was great hope for the implementation of the Khartoum strategy which can impulse with its service and economic, but the strategy lost its standing.

In Practice, the strategy gained a weak implementation.
On the zenith of writing the strategy hopes were flying high but it was unknown, anticipations were on the edge of seats.

The strategy implementation is crippled for many reasons, among them are; the mother of all problems the financial resources, the high inflation rates, lack of coordination between leaders of strategy, Ineffective leadership preparation, a weak cultural environment which encourages enforcing strategy, drawbacks on control and performance evaluation, deviation of the strategic plan by politicians and leaders, the instability of political and economic situations, and dismantle on the entire thought of strategy.
