The National, Tuesday 4th September, 2012

I thank the MPs who elected the Finschhafen MP as the speaker.
In response to my fellow kande (Aug 23) on issues affecting Finsch­hafen, the writer is correct that during Theo Zure­nuoc’s term, the Mongi bridge was washed away.
The MP tried to have a new bridge built but was halted by landowners.
The recent torrential rain that washed away sections of the road is nature taking its course.
Finschhafen requires the backing of the people to move forward.
I urge the writer to seek advice from the MP’s office if he/she is not sure.
Do not just comment on issues the writer is not familiar with when he/she is not living in Finsch­hafen.
