Minister Paita who concurred with the new State Owned Enterprises Minister Sasindran Muthuvel said some of the issues faced especially with SOEs is simply because these entities were running like government departments.
Paita says, under the Marape/Steven government, the Minister responsible for Communication & Energy, State Owned Enterprises and Transport and Infrastructure have agreed to let entities under their respective ministries run their operations without political interference.
Minister Paita added qualified people were hired to carry their respective duties and they should be left to carry out those duties.
Paita said it doesn’t make sense when smart people are hired and then are told what to do.
It should be the other way around, we invest and we need smart people so they can tell them what they need to do so that will be the general thinking going forward. FM100/PNG Today
