‘There are elements in MoF to be dealt with!’ – Hon Andrew A. Fahie
“You could almost determine who going to get the contracts and be right about it and you have to be careful when you have a tender process and the same person winning all the time. You creating the haves and the have nots,” said Hon Fahie as he noted that this is something that he has indicated to Virgin Islands Party Chairman Hon Julian Fraser RA (R3) that has to be looked into in the best interest of the people.
Hon. Fahie was addressing the people of his district along with others last night September 17, 2014 at the Abraham Leonard Community Centre in Carrot Bay. It was the occasion of one of several community meetings of the Virgin Islands Party as they gear up to take back the reins of the Government come the next scheduled elections.
“It seems to me that the only way you could get an extra job through the government consistently is to become a consultant because when you analyze it not even to the bush they cutting and when they cut it it’s sparingly,” said Hon Fahie, who threw tons of blows at the current National Democratic Party (NDP) government for bad management and ignoring the people they should be serving.
“When you analyze it, the foundation that built this Territory, they talking that those things were hand outs, well if you taking my money, it’s our money, and giving it to companies coming in to do consultancy without tendering that’s a hand out to them, not because they have a degree. That’s what you call a sophisticated manner of giving a hand-out,” said Hon Fahie.
“Some people feel that when they go to school they get so intelligent that they could do the wrong thing and explain it to you that it is right with nice words but how could I understand those things when you telling every contractor, every vendor around who have children in school trying their best that they can’t get any work because you don’t have any money and every time you listen to the radio, more money gone to a consultant,” noted Hon Fahie.
He made it clear once again that he firmly believes that there is no government that can run without consultancy. “Don’t fool yourself,” he added while stating, “But if you broke for me you broke for them. You can’t broke for me and have for them… you have to find a balance,” he said.
He further stated, “That is why the people of this Territory know that you ain’t doing well but they can’t understand why, but they coming on the radio and telling you all is well.”

I cannot imagine what they were like before entering college.. This sad truth about Andrew's deliberate attempts at dumbing down the future population while calling on the Great God of the Universe is criminal.. Defending and denying it is even worse. A Christian he is supposedly but he will eventually understand what is meant by "Suffer the little Children"..
