Sugar industry is the only industry that the government props up and continue to subsidise in spite of years of losses. If we work out the cumulative loss against profits over the years made we would end up with net loss of the highest order. So what sense is there in continuing in this direction. New approach and new genuine professionals are needed in the industry to effect desirable changes. Now that it is becoming a lame duck especially without the EU assistance, the IG is looking at the other major industries to cover up for the shortfall. These are tourism, mineral water and fish. That is the trouble when we have idiots trying to run the show and don't have a clue as to how to make it work successfully. These peoples agendas are all skewed up with perverted personal pursuits and are not there for the good of the country.
