Your ignorance is shining!! What a stupid comment to make!!
How can you blame someone who has just taken up the post for all the problems that existed prior to their arrival. One must think before making foolish comments. The "one" in this instance being you!
These people need to be exposed for who they are; greedy, selfish and heartless
Sewage still filling the streets of East End/Long Look!! When we get a breakout of cholera will NHI be able to cover the costs?
Our roads are falling apart with patching here and there. We are catering to tourism and we want them to come to our islands to drive through the stench of raw sewage, on our bad roads filled with potholes, water supply at its minimum and electricity and internet never a guarantee? Come on government, don't put the cart before the horse, fix our beautiful Territory first in order to offer the best package to our visitors. Stop overspending and put the money where it should go first!!!
