A senior economic analyst urged the Government to put in place mechanisms that regulate revenue collection in the country.
Lual Deng said the Ministry of Finance needed to accelerate and establish South Sudan Revenue Authority to enable smooth collection of non oil revenue.
He added that if the structure for revenue collection was in place, much more income would be generated.
The analyst said goods like alcohol and tobacco that would have generated revenue are being wrongly exempted from taxation.
Mr Deng said the Finance Ministry needed an intelligence unit to monitor the system.
He asked the civil society and media houses to come together to monitor the activities of every ministry and report.
Mr Deng said if a mechanism was put in place, every bad practice would be dealt with accordingly.
He urged the Ministry of Finance to lead by example and not to keep its bank account outside the country.
National deputy Finance minister Mary Jervas on Monday urged the authorities to work hard to raise non oil revenue.
There were questions on how the government would raise non oil revenue to finance the budget of 18.6 billion South Sudanese Pounds passed by legislators last Saturday.
