How to pick a Minister

Dec 16, 2011 Letters

 

 

Dear Editor,
One of the reasons given for the bunch of recycled and reshuffled Ministers in the present Cabinet is that the President’s choice is limited to the PPP/C list of candidates.
The million dollar question is, ‘why limit yourself only to the PPP list?’
Those who have ears to hear and eyes to see recognize that we want a government of National Unity,
The president, if he has his ears to the ground and his hands on the pulse of this nation, will change this Cabinet and choose the best from all lists of candidates. Yes, the PPP, APNU and AFC list of candidates.
While we are on the subject of honourable Ministers, and I use the term Honourable very loosely here, I strongly suggest that they too should have a two-term limit.
To request public services and sacrifices from an individual for five to ten years should be considered enough of their patriotic contribution to nation bui1ding.
They can now continue their professional life.
Reggie Bhagwandin
