This will be my last post on Africa Can. Having recently started a new adventure as Chief Economist of the World Bank's Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, I will be blogging on that region's issues in the MENA blog as well as starting a more general blog (tentatively titled "Economics to end poverty") with some of my fellow bloggers. It has been a privilege to moderate Africa Can, and I want to thank our readers for the stimulating, lively and frank discussions, as well as for having made this the most popular blog at the Bank.
