Jamaica Civil Service Association (JCSA) is not happy that PNP is not in power!

I continue to listen to the Jamaica Civil Service Association and the more I do the more I am seeing what is wrong with Jamaica.

The President of the Association has been noticeable more vocal since Feb 25, 2016 but not only has he been vocal, his statements have been found to be very troubling .

Statement 1

Pubic officers should not have to declare assets to gain promotion.

The President seems completely ambivilent to the fact that the wider society sees the Civil servants as a corrupt body and therefore welcome this move which seems geared towards a greater level of transparency.

The move to reject this move is therefore seen as an attempt to main the corrupt status quo, which is something we simply cannot afford.

Statement #2

Government should abandon the tax plan and instead raise the threshold to $1,000,000.

I swear that too many organization in this country is lead by a bunch of idiots who have very little computations skills and continues to mis lead the people they are are attempting to lead.

A quick calculation of their proposal would see most civil servants taking home between $35,000 – $108,000 less per annum.  I really wonder whose interest are these people looking out for because surely;y it cannot be the low income workers.

I think the Civil Servants needs to find a more competent leader to take charge of the group, because I think this current one lacks the capacity to lead properly.
