"Water Supply and Higher Education." these ministries does not go hand-in-hand. So appoint another Minister for one of them because we have enough money in our country, the most RICHEST nation in the world.

Let's hope the outgoing ministers give up their ministerial vehicles to the incoming ones. -Less waste of tax payer's money!
