Ringkasan doa bagi Sao Tome dan Principe
Terakhir diperbarui Oktober 2026. Fakta diambil dari sumber-sumber yang tercantum di bawah.
Peristiwa terkini
On 27 September the nation voted for a new parliament, local councils and the regional government of Príncipe, with a record abstention of about 63%. The Constitutional Court confirmed that the MLSTP won 24 of 55 seats, the ADI 23, the MCI-PS/PUN coalition 6 and Basta 2, so no party has a majority. On 7 October the ADI and MCI-PS/PUN signed a deal to back a government, while the MLSTP expects its own leader to be named. On 15 October President Vila Nova said he would decide within about 30 days, once the new National Assembly is in place, and would only appoint a government with stable support in parliament.
Kami berdoa bagi: Pertolongan segera, keselamatan, dan bantuan mendesak.
Kepemimpinan dan politik
São Tomé and Príncipe is a republic where the president has limited powers and the prime minister leads the government. President Carlos Vila Nova won a second term in July 2026 with about 56% of the vote and was sworn in in September. The Prime Minister is Américo Ramos, appointed in January 2025 after the President dismissed the previous government. The President must now choose a prime minister who can win the support of parliament.
Kami berdoa bagi: Hikmat, integritas, dan keadilan bagi para pemegang kekuasaan.
Kesehatan ekonomi
The Prime Minister has said the economy grows only about 1% to 2% a year and needs to grow faster. Leaders name inflation, the energy crisis and the water supply among the main needs, and a solar park is planned to cover about half of electricity needs. The nation relies on cocoa and imports much of its food, and poverty remains one of its main challenges.
Kami berdoa bagi: Pemeliharaan bagi keluarga-keluarga dan pengelolaan yang jujur.
Masalah sosial dan budaya
São Tomé and Príncipe is a small island nation of about 200,000 people. Its peoples include the Forros, descendants of those freed from slavery, the Angolares, the Serviçais and Tongas, descended from contract labourers, and Luso-Africans. Portuguese is spoken by almost everyone, along with creoles such as Forro, Angolar and Principense. Families hit by power and water shortages and rising prices are among the most vulnerable.
Kami berdoa bagi: Rekonsiliasi, damai, dan perlindungan bagi mereka yang rentan.
Keadaan rohani
About 81% of people are Christian, about 13% follow no religion and about 3% follow folk religions, according to 2020 figures. Most Christians are Catholic. Muslims are under 2% of the population and their number has grown through migration from other African countries.
Kami berdoa bagi: Kebangunan rohani, pengharapan, dan tersebarnya kebenaran.
Kebebasan beragama
The constitution sets up a secular state and protects freedom of religion and worship. The US State Department reports that religious groups must register, which requires a meeting of at least 500 members, and unregistered groups can be fined. In October 2019 crowds damaged church buildings after a pastor was convicted abroad, and an adolescent died. Religious leaders report good relations between faiths.
Kami berdoa bagi: Perlindungan bagi orang percaya dan kebebasan untuk beribadah dengan aman.
Luka sejarah
Portuguese sailors reached the uninhabited islands in 1470, and the islands became a hub of the Atlantic slave trade with sugar and later cocoa plantations. Forced labour continued after slavery was abolished in 1876, and in the Batepá Massacre of 1953 several hundred African workers were killed. Independence came on 12 July 1975, followed by one-party rule until 1990, a brief coup in 2003 and a failed coup attempt in 2022.
Kami berdoa bagi: Kesembuhan bangsa, terputusnya lingkaran lama, dan pengampunan yang mendalam.
Mari kita berdoa bersama
Our Father, we come to You together for São Tomé and Príncipe. In this season after the elections, give peace and patience to the whole nation. Give wisdom, integrity and justice to the President, the parliament and whoever will lead the new government. Provide power, water and daily bread for every family, and grant honest stewardship of all that You have given. Make the peoples of both islands one, and protect the poor and the vulnerable. Let the hope and truth of Your love be known in every home. Keep every believer free to worship in safety and in peace with their neighbours. Heal the deep wounds of slavery, forced labour and the Batepá Massacre, and lead the nation in forgiveness. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
