The Army Commander does not know what he is doing.
Unfortunately, he is a favourite of the King who is Defence Minister.
As a true democrat, I like the way the Parliamentary Select Committee is operating in a transparent manner.
Wish the parliament would have more Select Committees probing other incidents of mismanagement and corruption within Government.
This will tremendously help towards accountability of the Public Service.
