Questions for Portia and the PNP ?
- How much investment did we actually see 2012/2013 ?
- How many jobs were actually created in 2012 ?
Until we begin to hold these folks accountable nothing will happen in this country. How can we have people simply make announcement , with very little results to back those announcement and no follow up by the general public or the media, what is really going on here ?
