Note: I may be quite interesting to see how these kinds of government commissions operate in relation to controversial projects such as the N2 Gateway. There is a lot of discussion but the commission does not seem to know what is going on. Neither does it have any idea what the truth is. For instance: They ask many times whether there continues to be structural defects in Phase 1 and never get a clear answer. But shouldn’t they go visit and inspect the flats for themselves rather than talk about theoretically in these kinds of bureaucratic meetings? Also notice how Phase 1 flat tenants were not even invited to participate despite Thubelisha’s misleading claim that they were being consulted. Enjoy this insight into how failed government projects are rationalised as inevitable…
