WHYS 30: What's become of Tunisia?

World Have Your Say

Available for over a year

It's a year since the uprising in Tunisia - triggered by a fruit seller setting himself alight in protest at bureaucracy in the country - ultimately ended in the revolution that toppled president Ben Ali. So what do Tunisians now feel about their country? How has it progressed since Ben Ali fled? Are they happy with the onset of democratic rule - and if so, why are so many of them setting themselves on fire?
