No one is indispensable. If he is not happy, good bye. Appoint another capable and suitable person.

I would imagine it is the job the COO to tackle these problems. Rather than asking for tax reliefs or import restrictions.

As an employee you should have taken up the issue of the damage caused to the sugar industry by the diversion of maize for ethanol production if you felt so. If every employee in any position gives newspaper interviews about without informing the higher ups about it, then many employees in service airing their own ideas in public will not be good.

The government is now claiming that the losses incurred by the sugar factory are due to the higher prices paid to farmers. To cover these losses, they plan to sell ethanol at a higher price to the private sector. In order to prevent private companies from importing cheaper ethanol, the government will increase import taxes on ethanol. In the end, it is the consumer who will bear the cost of this inefficient government operation. The reality is that we have no competitive advantage in producing sugar domestically—especially through a government-run factory. The production process is inefficient, politically driven, and not aligned with market realities.

These people are politicized and working undercover to fulfil their hidden political agendas. True, rather than criticizing and putting other people in difficulty it is better to resign. This is the black world president refers to. We all now that the government servants have been equally responsible for the collapse of this country. Mercenaries. Don't wash your dirty linen in public.

How come that the IMF has insisted on enhancing taxes on local production, while reducing the import duty low on the same product? Should the country be dependent on imports only while depleting the foreign reserves?

PITY HE WAS NOT AWARE OF WHO HE SHOULD REPORT TO IF HE HAS ANY ISSUES HE IS UNABLE TO HANDLE OR RESOLVE. Wednesday, 04 June 2025 07:30 PM

WHEN PEOPLE ARE SELECTED FOR A POST AND CANNOT PERFORM AND OR GET THEIR DEPT OR STAFF TO PERFORM, IT IS TIME FOR THEM TO RESIGN, INSTEAD OF WAITING TO BE ASKED TO RESIG. AS IT ONLY GOES TO SHOW THEY ARE NOT FIT FOR THE JOB THEIR WERE HIRED TO DO. PITY THIS C..O. OPERATIONS , WHEN ONE IS HIRED FOR EMPLOYMENT THE BOARD AND OR MANAGING DIRECTOR EXPECTS THEM TO GET ALL STAFF TO PERFORM AND THE COMPANY TO RUN SMOOTHLY, IF THE EMPLOYEE IS UNABLE TO HOLD THE SHOW AND THEIR ARE ISSUES THAT HE IS UNABLE TO HANDLE OR MAKE A DECISION ON HE SOHULD HAVE GONE TO THE MANAGING DIRECTOR OR BOARD (WHATEVER AUTHORITY HE IS EXPECTED TO REPORT TO) INSTEAD OF MOUTHING OFF ON A PUBLIC SPACE, WHICH ONLY GOES TO SHOW HIS CALIBRE. GLAD HE RESIGNED, IF THIS HAPPENED IN ANY OTHER COMPANY HE WOULD HAVE NOT BEEN ASKED TO RESIGN, BUT SACKED. COMPANIES, DEPTS, OFFICES HAVE PROTOCALLS, A STAFF MEMBER SIMPLY DOES NOT GO AND HIT A TIN ON SOCIAL MEDIA. HIS ACTIONS ONLY GOES TO SHOW, HE WAS UNABLE TO HANDLE HIS DUTIES.

JVP should realize people voted for AKD for President and because people had faith in him and the first cabinet of four people voted for a NPP government with a landslide victory. JVP had no contribution to this victory and of they think people voted for them they are mistaken Contribution of JVP resulted in government losing 2 mln votes at the PC election.If the JVP politburo with no experience in governing try to meddle it will be a sad situation. Let AKD, PM and others run the country or else the opposition politicians who were rejected by the people will come back to power.
