He studied at the University of Bordeaux in France, graduating with a master's degree in political sociology and development in 1988. He subsequently worked as a researcher at the Instituto Nacional de Estudos e Pesquisa in Bissau. During the Guinea-Bissau Civil War of 1998–1999 he was an advisor to Prime Minister Francisco Fadul.〔 Imbali ran as an independent candidate in the November 1999 presidential elections and placed third, winning 8.22% of the vote.〔(Elections in Guinea-Bissau ), African Elections Database.〕 After the victory of Kumba Ialá of the Party for Social Renewal (PRS) in that election, Imbali was appointed Deputy Prime Minister in charge of Economic and Social Reconstruction in the government named on 19 February 2000, under Prime Minister Caetano Intchama.〔("Le gouvernement de la GUINEE BISSAU formé le 19 February 2000" ), ''Afrique Express'' .〕〔"Guinea-Bissau: Agency gives full cabinet list", PANA news agency (nl.newsbank.com), February 22, 2000.〕 Subsequently, in the government named on 25 January 2001, he became Minister of Foreign Affairs.〔("Le gouvernement de GUINEE BISSAU formé le 25 January 2001" ), ''Afrique Express'' .〕〔(Rulers.org, January 2001 ).〕 When Intchama was dismissed by Ialá in March 2001, Ialá nominated Imbali as his successor, despite the objections of the opposition, which held a majority in parliament.〔("Uncertainty hangs over dismissal of prime minister" ), IRIN, March 21, 2001.〕 The opposition filed a no-confidence motion against Imbali but subsequently conditionally dropped the motion.〔("Opposition drops no-confidence motion" ), IRIN, May 2, 2001.〕 In December, Imbali was dismissed by Ialá, who criticized him strongly.〔("Guinea-Bissau gets new PM" ), BBC.co.uk, December 8, 2001.〕〔("Yala appoints new prime minister" ), IRIN, December 10, 2001.〕 Accusing Imbali of diverting money from the armed forces (which Imbali denied), Ialá warned Imbali in April 2002 that he would go to jail unless he returned the money.〔("President threatens former PM with prison" ), IRIN, April 8, 2002.〕 In 2003, Imbali founded the Manifest Party of the People (PMP) and ran as its presidential candidate in the 19 June 2005 presidential election, winning 0.52% of the vote.〔 Imbali was reportedly beaten and taken into custody by security forces on 5 June 2009 in violence directed against alleged coup plotters, including Baciro Dabo and Helder Proenca.〔("Guinea-Bissau ex-PM severely beaten but alive" ), AFP, 6 June 2009.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Faustino Imbali」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
