Governments all over the world are in place to work in the best interest of citizens but in Montserrat the opposite always seem to happen.
The merger of Monlec (Montserrat Electricity Services) and (Montserrat Water Authority) has resulted in financial ruin to a company that existed and profited for over 25 years. The people of Montserrat will suffer for this.
Anyone remember that 18 years ago Monlec was ready to build in Lime Field? How is it then that all now we cannot have definite word on a power station?
Look at nonsense. The manager of MUL (Montserrat Utilities Ltd.) is saying that “they” – legal team is saying that the company is responsible! So what does he say? Pension funds are deducted at source by MUL …. Employees cannot refuse to pay or they cannot remain employed by MUL …. Now the officials trying to remove themself. Government has created this situation because many years ago when merger was announced employees requested payouts and instead legislation was passed to prevent this. Where is the justice? After 10 years members of parliament have secure pensions. Why after 20 and 30 years MUL employees faced with this? How can anyone put faith in government?
