A Magicians’ convention at NIS

Sep 26, 2012 Letters

Dear Editor,
My NIS number is A11110352. Permit me through your media to seek assistance in advising me on the way forward to have the NIS account for all of my contributions.
For the past years since retirement I have been making repeated representations to the General Manager of NIS to bring into account all of my contributions in computing my pension. Over this period they have from time to time been finding my contributions in bits and pieces- some 92 contributions are still to be taken into account.
I had hoped that my representation of 29th August, 2012 to the General Manager would have resulted in a closure; this was not to be. Not even a courtesy of an acknowledgement.
Like the many who have been denied their just by the NIS and suffered terrible humiliation and have passed away from the frustrations and hassle at the hand of the scheme, it looks as if one has to resort to unclinical behaviour to have one’s problem settled by NIS or await natural resolution- death.
I guess if my case was that of a sugar worker my representations over a decade (and still ongoing) would not be necessary.
I do not have a “crystal ball” to help me with the way forward but I do know that matters of this kind have the potential to provoke and result in confrontational situations.
Can you kindly advise me as to how I can get my 92 contributions and wash my blood and sweat from the hands of NIS.
A,H, Gaffoor
