Comment: Sam my friend, as usual you have been very eloquent. I am in support of some of your expressed views, but facts are facts,and more to the point the gentleman did not lie. I do not think he meant to be negative about our beloved SKN either, but the world and his brother can read about the murders in the Federation for themselves by logging on to this site. We cannot hide these figures from the world, but you and your fellow Ministers no doubt are embarrassed by these figures, and would clearly want them kept quiet. The question I have for you, my friend, is this : why have you guys in government waited until now to do something about combating this menace in our society? Too little, too late my friend. I tip my hat to the gentleman for being brave and honest enough to put the figures in the international domain. It made you sit up and take notice, let's hope the PM is moved by it and put some new initiatives forward for the police to do even more in the fight against crime. You mentioned 'things' that the government has done, all well and good, but what about things the government hasn't done and should have done. The development of the SE Peninsula is a good thing, but have you guys repaired the road yet? Another thing, have you made these developers aware that the local workforce MUST be first in line for the jobs created? Let's have locals in TOP jobs as well and not just in the menial jobs. This place is ours. As to the 'Houses' you built, would you live in any of them? I'll bet you would not. Let'see you and your fellow ministers do something about the Quality of the 'Houses' you build, then and only then you will be in a position to brag about the 'Houses'. Sam, my friend I have a lot of respect for you personally, but 'your stewardship' so far leaves a lot to be desired. We in this federation deserve, and demand better. You guys have had more than enough time to make good, but your inadequacies are there for all to see.If you cannot deliver, then my friend, I'm afraid it's time to go. |
