The All People's Congress (APC) and the president, Ernest Koroma, are expected to remain in power over the forecast period. Recovering economic growth and improvements in power supply will boost the government's popularity, but corruption in the police and high unemployment will dampen popular enthusiasm and give ample opportunity for criticism by the opposition parties. Real GDP growth is expected to pick up after a dip in 2009, rising to 5.2% in 2010 and 6% in 2011 as the global economy improves, boosting prices for exports and driving greater foreign investment in mining projects. Inflation is forecast to fall from an estimated 11% in 2009 to 9% in 2010 and 9.3% in 2011, although the weak leone and strong international oil prices will prevent further falls. Overall, the current-account deficit is expected to narrow to 8.3% of GDP in 2010 and 7.9% of GDP in 2011, as current transfers pick up and the economy grows.
