New gov’t will need to reduce level of expansionary projects

More importantly the IMF report is a wake-up call to the limited economic activity that can be expected in the coming year.

The new government will need to reduce the level of expansionary projects and focus on improving what already exists.

Upkeep and improvement in sea water pumps, drainage, electricity and water supply should make up the main areas of focus for year one of the new administration.

Given the forecasted continuation of the Pandemic during their first year, it should be expected that the healthcare system will see high levels of investment in each administrative region.

On a personal note, it is very disappointing to see the level of greed and dishonesty during this difficult economic and pandemic time in our history.
