P.K. Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 First and foremost there must be NO early retirement payoff systems like the stupidly generous MARS administered by the CS/PS themselves for the foreseeable future. Statutory minimum might help get the finances back on an even keel... 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because they seem highly educated, doesn’t mean to say they are any use as a politician, or at least have the abilities to solve the islands issues.

Is it best to clear out the poor performers and take a short term hit or just keep paying then for years? I know which is cheaper in the long run.

And how much did we pay them all and who are the mugs? A 5 year term is too long for some of these people, there should be a 2.5 year option to turf them out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
