Kee Chong Disgusted At How Sithanen Has Been Treated

That's how he ended his short interview with Deepa Bhookun this morning. He also reminded Rama that there are other things in life that one can do and to take some time to think things over.

I am however having a hard time understanding why he thinks Sithanen's has been treated in a inhumane fashion. The way many people look at it is Rama screwed up big time as Minister of Finance and Ramgoolam found -- rather belatedly I must say -- someone to replace him.

I also wonder what Kee Chong thought of Rama's second-guessing the Prime Minister's prerogatives in public last Sunday.

Ramgoolam To Cross Bridge Without Sithanen

Guess he's not too happy with the economic performance of the last 5 years. And he has contracted an alliance with the MSM so as not to take unnecessary risks. Indeed, if things were as rosy as the few beneficiaries of crony capitalism would have us believe then Navin would have kept the bean-counter-in-chief, right? That's something we had decoded back in September.

He must also have gotten quite tired of Rama second-guessing his prerogatives every now and then.

Kozelidir's Simple Guide To Coping With The PM's Prerogatives

1. It is the Prime Minister who appoints the Governor of the Central Bank. If you don't like the person he has nominated you shouldn't cry for a whole week and/or threaten to resign. Likewise please don't use provisions of the Bank of Mauritius Act to obstruct the proper functioning of such a vital institution.

2. It is the Prime Minister who appoints Ministers. Even if you try little tricks to put some pressure on him.

Should I now come up with a simple guide to decoding the PM's not-so subtle messages?
