Between the Line
FOOD PRICES
Things have become expensive after fuel prices have gone up. Food prices will start increasing to cover freight costs. Can the price control team be vigilant and help keep prices getting any higher?
NEW TEAM
After the loss to Japan at the Rugby World Cup, most Samoans have started supporting their Pacific neighbours Fiji. Some even waking early to cheer them on. Pacific brothers.
GOOD STUDENTS
Medical students who are not supposed to be doing internships just yet are working the wards at hospitals in Samoa. Kudos to them but can the government fill these positions.
DOORS
The doors to toilets at some hospital wards are not there. Imagine the shock an elderly lady got when an elderly man opened the door while she was doing her business.
HOUSE SITS
Our neighbours in Pago are relentless about taking people to task over the pleasure boat. The Parliament sits this month, will we get a similar response to a similar issue.
POLICY
With the new seasonal work policy, people unemployed for more than six months have a chance to go. Hopefully people do not decide to sit at home for that period just for work overseas.
