In Developed Countries, we are told people who were allowed to stand for elections had to be people of a certain stature in society, i.e. a certain amount of wealth. Decisions congress made were not purely based on “financial impact”, because if need be they could foot that gap! in their personal capacity. Now, here we are, born in a country where politicians are “have nots”, the result is that the only question they know is “how much will it cost?”…… now, we’re stuck with DC Principal Secretaries, Ambassadors, Directors etc cos it would apparently be costly to release them, and this is affecting how as society we view and value the current Govt. PAY THESE PEOPLE AND RELEASE THEM!!! If the Prime Minister’s Office manages to pay rent at around M160,000 per month for about 51 offices at Maseru Sun, for an entity that was closed in December 2011,why cant the political appointees be paid?
