Ministers, MPs neglecting work

Wednesday July 9, 2008

IT IS interesting to note that many senior parliament members and politicians alike have publicly announced their “touring the nation” plan to explain to their respective parties members the issues that are plaguing their political parties.

The touring activities began right after the March 2008 election?

What makes me ponder is that aren’t these appointed ministers or politician being paid to serve the general public rather than their own political parties?

It seems to me this special group of people (including government ministers) are neglecting their actual work at their respective ministries or departments.

Don’t they need to do work as ministers, heads of government departments?

Is there not enough important issues in their ministry to address that they can spend so much time out of their offices?

It is sad to see nobody control or manage this group.

Even the person at the helm of the Government is himself practicing the concept “political parties first, rather than serving the people first”.

What is even sadder to me is that with the recent hardships citizens are facing, the official duties of ministers and heads of departments has been relegated to second place.
