Samuel Marçal

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Samuel Marçal is an East Timorese civil servant. Marçal is Director General of the Agency for National Development ADN ( tetum Ajensia de Dezenvolvimentu Nasional , Portuguese Agência de Desenvolvimento Nacional ).

On August 13, 2018, President Francisco Guterres announced in a letter the appointment of Samuel Marçal as Minister for Projects and Strategic Investments. In the government were due to a dispute between the president and the ruling coalition several items until now unoccupied. Marçal is to be sworn in with two other appointed members of the government on August 16. Before that, however, on August 15, Prime Minister Taur Matan Ruak wrote a letter to the President to postpone the inauguration of the three, "out of solidarity" with the other members of the government who have not yet been appointed (Marçal is incorrectly called "Manuel" in the letter). The swearing in did not take place.
