Translation/Rairana Only 2 Political promises which have been fulfilled this year which their total cost implication to the Government budget cannot be concluded yet since payments for elderly benefits and unemployment’s are not yet done to those people who supposed to receive such allowances.
Now that we are approaching next year and assuming that there may be another 2 or more political promises to be implemented in 2021, taking the new leave grant of $3,000 and the new copra price of $4/kilo as examples.

How would the Government be able to finance these extra budget cost?

Will there be any new revenues or any substantial increase to our major revenue from fishing license expected in the year 2021 to enable the Government to finance its Motinnano for 2021?
