Do you know that a dog wonders around everywhere but always come home to defecate in its backyard? Right now everybody thinks that we have been having this for a long time and it is hard to let go. Well, my friend everything has an end. Nobody in their wildest dream would have thought of an expensive idea like driving on the Left Side of the road would have happened in the Government of Samoa. Controlling of the land by a single matai and leasing it so he can make money is another example. These are the changes that the majority of Samoa does not want to happen. But it’s about to be happening. I think I got a general idea of why the government does not want to let go. Is PROPAGANDA sounds familiar to you? I recommend you to read this book called “Who Moved My Cheese?” I was number one for six weeks on Amazon.com. There is always a need to find fresh, new, bigger and better cheese when the old cheese starts running out and smells bad. - James T Fri, 16 May 2008 21:55:16 +0100 http://www.samoalivenews.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=1142&Itemid=59#pc_1393 you cannot have your cake and eat it to you want investments from overseas or from investors, play the game-- it is best to allow good companies to invest with experience than to see a good product or company lose jobs, vitality and economic opportunities You want jobs to stay in the country, government is not the answer-- Government is an impediment to development. You must be out of your mind if you lambast investors for investing capital to improve our positions, performance and enhance the country as a whole. you look over at the East of us and understand that if 80 percent of our countrymen are employed by those canneries and tomorrow the canneries pull out of Am.Samoa. Guess, where they are going to return to next. correct you are--- Samoa. Do you see the Government of Samoa looking for ways to mitigate that situation-- No-- do they care that Sila and Fili is unemployed in American Samoa soon to return with no money to send back and no opportunities to seek-- No.. so lets see the math says if 6000 wokers are alive in the canneries and 80% of those return-- lets see the math says nearly 4,800 Samoan Citizens will on the streets of the country looking for JOBS... Nice scene you think-- someone can offer them work or better yet, are their any jobs to go to? Just wondering how long those Visas are for, 6 months or 6 years! - wait a second Fri, 16 May 2008 04:29:52 +0100
