AFGHANISTAN-SOCIETY

Afghan balloon vendor Arash, 19, waits for customers as he walks through a neighbourhood in Kabul on January 12, 2015. Arash sells balloons for 5 Afghani, which is the equivalent to less then one US cent, makes around 4 USD per day when business is good. Afghanistan's economy has improved significantly since the fall of the Taliban in 2001, but despite international asistance the country needs to overcome challenges including low revenue collection and job creation, corruption, weak government capacity and poor public infrastructure.
