WMD

A certain authorities attempts to locate technology they claim was used illegally is the same as American soldiers looking for weapons of mass destruction in Iraq under President George Bush, the younger one.

AUDIT

If government ministries are audited annually, so are the funds that they distribute. The school's grant for the last how many years was distributed by the education ministry. If claims have been made that these funds were not audited, it means that government ministries have not been audited.

COMPENSATION

It is the new month, and the people of Safata are still waiting for their compensation. The money was given in October last year. Nowhere else in the world does it take six months to distribute funds to 9,000 people.

$150

By the time the remaining $600,000 is released to many of the district councils, most people who did not receive their $150 would have forgotten about the handout. Will the district offices be courteous enough to give the people a call?

MEDICINE

Now that there is a Chinese Medical Centre at the big hospital, the next step would be to have a Samoan traditional medicine centre. People are still going to get the massage, so why not get it done at the hospital? That way, access to emergency services is closer.

TRANSPORT

Saturday is the day for sports, and it is good to see many clubs travelling together to sporting venues. It would be better if 20 players did not cram into the back of a truck tray that can carry only 10.
