Socio-economic challenges

I WANT to comment on socio-economic challenges facing the Government so far without any workable solution.
It is an early sign that the Government may not last beyond 18 months after hosting the Apec Leaders’ Summit. Basic reforms with noble intentions are not working and delivering goods and services as anticipated for a host of reasons.
One of these is the budgetary support and timely release of the so-called TFF or free education policy, which is so slow that schools are on the verge of closing down.
Likewise, timely procurement of medical drugs is adding more drug-resistant challenges.
This is while a few distributors have become filthy rich at the expense of favoured procurement systems, with associated kickbacks for the boys.
Little confidence in the forex market are signs of bad policies that continue to drain more capital outflows.
Other sectoral policies are lagging behind due to the wastage of resources by those in authority and have nothing to show for.
Is the prime minister aware of the fact that for some of his cabinet ministers, it will be their last and only chance to be ever voted in again?
They are so hell-bent under the sun to benefit from systematic corruption by placing their cronies in a position of responsibility so they can manipulate and fabricate unnecessary contracts so they can benefit from the kickbacks.
Most tend to do globetrotting to get extra allowances and tend to sensationalise issues in the media as if they have PNG at heart.
All are deceivers and big-time looters of State coffers.
The prime minister needs to reshuffle some of his Cabinet ministers so they don’t bring disrepute to the People’s National Congress Party and its coalition partners before it’s too late.
