South Sudan Is Collapsing Thanks to Corruption Over Oil 

VICE's Isobel Yeung explores how corruption at the top is threatening to tear the world's newest country apart WATCH NEXT: Libya's Revolution Is in Ruins - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-HrKWeGNCQzQ.html

"Are you corrupt?" Salute To YOU Madam.

"No I'm not corrupt" Then gives a micro smirk for lying through his teeth.

Isobel needs to be recognized for her honest journalism. We live in a world where a 9 year old has to control his tears for his murdered brother.

“Are you corrupt” Corrupt leader : “..who me”?

Vice: How many extremely dangerous countries do you wanna go visit? Isobel: Yes.

"are you CORRUPT?" no *the land cruiser behind is saying otherwise*

Heartbreaking moment was to see the child cry for his lost family..may God give you all the strength

I am from Bangladesh. I still remember the time when my father was posted in South Sudan, Libya, Egypt and other african countires for UN peacekeeping missions. The day my father left for Sudan from Bangladesh, I cried alot and the entire day at school I was depressed and worried for the safety of my father and the thought that i would never see him again. I was 7 years old during that time and didn't know much about the world. Recently after turning 19 this year, i am seeing these documentaries and I am more than proud of my father. I am not the best son in the world but he sure is the best father in the world. P.S. my father is well and alive, he is now a Colonel of the Bangladesh army. I still have some of his pictures from his tour in africa in my old laptop.

Isobel : " Are you corrupt? " damn

Admire the journalist who asked “are you corrupt” right on the face of someone so corrupt !!

I don't think I can ever forget the moment the boy reunited with his family, I watched it countless of times with tears in my eyes, especially when he was carried by his family. Thank you vice for always educating me and always showing me how greatful I should be for my condition

What struck me the most was how emotional everyone was about Bol’s return. From his sister, to the neighbours, to just random people. No matter who they are, people just want their loved ones near them; blood-related or not.

"Me I'm not corrupt." Land Cruiser behind him: Excuse me Sir.

Isobel asking a minister of a country whose soldiers murder civilians if he's corrupt on point blank range is the strength of intestinal juice i need in my life

When that boy started crying, damn that was hard to watch. That was heartbreaking. I wish I could adopt him.

I cant get over the fact how blessed I am to live in a peaceful place. I pray for South Sudan to be prosperous very soon.

Isobel is literally the goat. Most journalists have some annoying sassiness to them like they know everything. But she is genuinely there to learn and really question all while having a heart.

“Are you corrupt?” Isobel, you’re incredible.

The last scene with Bol’s arrival is so powerful.

Hope Isobel will cover Armenian and Azerbaijan conflict.

Imagine going to the hospital and having to bring your own medical supplies... and I get upset when they make me wait longer than 30min at the ER.

I couldn't hold back my tears when that little boy said he has no one to talk to about the killing of his brother

I have served there in south sudan as UN peacekeeping force, never imagined that this will happen May God brings Love and Peace to my Sudanese brothers and sisters

That poor baby talking about his brother being shot broke my heart and my tears fell with his. Children are so precious and should never have to live in situations like that. I've never been my country going into other places to enforce regime change but something needs to done in south Sudan!

When that kid collapsed into his sisters arms I couldn't stop from crying man. I hope they're together and safe

Am very happy for Bol and the help that was delivered. It has been 7 years now since I saw my Mother and siblings but I hope one day I be back like Bol

Thanks to people who involved in uniting the young boy with his family. Tears of joy run out from eyes I don't know the reasons😪

“I am not corrupt” love it spoken like a true politician....

"were they displaced by human right violations?" "yes" " n o"

Wow !! Huge respect and appreciation for that lady reporter 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Such fearless and love and passion towards those needy people because of her we can see through their crying and pain faces May god help them and that lady reporter as well

We should learn not to take family for granted. Beautiful ending scene

That little boy tear broke my heart.

"Me? I'm not corrupt" His fine clothes and his cars at the back: **are we a joke to you?**

damn, that ending brought tears to my eyes.

It really is sad to see all these people in these conditions. How do things like this truly get resolved or slowly turned around?

"The world is corrupt." "Are you corrupt?" "...No."

"are you corrupt?" minister: *shock pikachu face* bet he didn't see that coming

12:37 I am a Sudanese born and I was like that when I finally met my family in Khartoum/Sudan in December 2006. Although I was 30, hours, days, weeks, months, years and decades had become customary to me whenever I thought about my brothers. 18 years had gone and pretty lost my teenage and became an adult and responsible so early. Today I am 45 and seeing this kid with his family reunited just brought tears to my eyes. I continue to pray for my South Sudan and Sudan.

Great reporting!

this reporter is very good, my daughter says she wants to be just like her when she grows up. Way to be a rolemodel miss Isobel

This is some strong stuff, Bol's reunion with his family literally had me crying

"Are you corrupt?" God damn, she was cold. Izyeung is definitely an asset to Vice News. I really hope that Vice won't let her go.

love your documentaries

You can notice he was surprised by her question, his voice suddenly lowered

Can't imagine how a society can live this way.

Isobel is literally MVP. She CONFRONTED the Ministry of Information like a champ.

$18 USD for a 33.8 fl oz (1 quart, 1.8 fl oz) water bottle for oil? That's absurd & crazy!

7:31 a remorseful moment when this young boy sheds tears. The pain of losing a brother and a loved one was too much for him to bear. What a world we're living in!

Makes you really sit back and think how lucky and blessed we are.

This is so sad. Corruption by just a few hurts so many others. You can’t help but feel bad for the people, especially the kids.

Breaks my heart listening to the kids' stories. It was really sweet and lovely to see they're united again at the end.

Damn i wanna hug that boy talking about his brother that was heart wrenching

Vice: There's a new war breaking out just southeast of- Isobel: Say no more.

so frustrating that no one talks about this

I'll never complain about anything again, my dad came to the UK in the 60's for a better life for all of us and all praise to the almighty we have the best life here. Our problems are so small compared to them.

"Well there is corruption all over the world" That doesn't matter, you should strive for no corruption.

I cried when Bol was reunited with his family

That part at the end made me cry so hard. Mannnn

This breaks my heart😢😢😢

Reporter: "Are you corrupt" "wHo mE?" .. Yeahh that's a tell tell if I've ever seen one smh.

The video ends on a happy note, but remember. These people are living this reality 24/7, something needs to be done.

this guy is saying he's not corrupt, in a country with more than 3 million ppl living in poverty, while he has two $90k SUV's behind him

thank you for this work

I was also crying. When that boy meets his family.

Almost cried when he saw his sister and the people around received him!😢❤

Damn, I'm always impressed with Isobel she is one of the best correspondents alive. things she does takes some major courage and it is always impressive.

Best ending to a vice video I’ve seen in a long time.

When a country is led by former warlords, what do you expect? They'll just do what they know best.

I really like this journalist. She didn’t give a crap interviewing that head guy. Balls of steel.

This is painful

Wonder work. Thanks for helping that young guy get reunited with his family. So touching. You made a big difference in his life.

lol from bananas to south sudan . what a transition.

Wow, Who else started to have a tear jerker moment at the end... I literally almost broke into tears, I had to hold them back... I am happy he was re-united with his sister but still, to have to experience such horror at such a young age is just heart breaking to me. The people responsible need to be held accountable for the nations suffering!

That reunion in the end!💞

I'm super disgusted when that minister said I'm not corrupted and he don't even have the balls to say it

*My whole body just got pins and needles all over when that boy was picked up and walked into his new home by his long lost family. DAMN!*

My heart bleeds when I watch the greed of people send others to their graves

Brought tears 😭❤️🙏😢

The last part broke me.

No one: South Sudanese government: I don't see a problem here

The little boy crying about his brother's death just killed me. God bless them poor souls. Amen.

This is one of the most painful videos I have seen

Extraordinary news!. Great job .

I will one day bring change to my country South Sudan 1. Be it building a school,Orphanage,Hospital, Or fighting corruption.

7:31that kid broke my heart and made me shade tears i really felt his pain... thumb up to the reporter

I'm in complete awe of Isobel Yeung. Such a braveheart.

thank you for your courageous journalism

13:00 when his sisters raised him up, I shed tears. God bless South Sudan.

Watched this during the middle of an anxiety attack only to realize how trivial my concerns in life are.

Watching the little boy being reunited with his family is incredible!

from the other sudan here, i love my south sudanese brothers and sisters and hope everything gets better for you

Isobel has the most interesting job on the planet. She's good at it too.

She’s an incredible journalist... no matter what corrupt asshole she’s facing, she always challenges them!

Amazing report

Now this is journalism that has a real impact. Thankyou so much for helping that little boy reunite with his family.❤

Atleast Bol is back with his sister. 😢

When two warlords can't even share the oil between themselves, how the hell will they share it with the people!!!

The only time ive ever seen the news end on a happy note

i was in tears watching this. Isobel shows us the most raw realities of our world. i really appreciate everything in my life right now.
