Between The Lines
DEPUTY
Rumours of behind-the-scenes discussions for a new Council of Deputies appointment. Wonder who will get the nod from the powers that be?
COMPLAINERS
The drivers of a couple of Cabinet Ministers were heard recently quietly complaining about a pastor. They wanted to remove a hundred tala from his envelope!
THE PASTOR
The drivers weren't impressed the pastor gave their bosses a lecture at a recent project opening. The MPs were told to always put the people first!
EXPERIENCE
The outcry over a tour guide contract begs the question of how an experienced local operator, who a Chinese billionaire engaged this year, was overlooked.
PERSONAL
The other side of social media: you get to see government officials’ other activities. This includes the use of State assets such as cameras for personal gain.
MESSENGER
The price a media house pays for doing its job: two government ministries pulled the plug on advertising, following adverse news coverage of their ministers!
