It is ablessing to be critised than to look down on all pipo offering the product esp those that help a counties economy. I trust world advise will even cause less reshuffles and random short term contract termination for good policy implemenatations which which prove to expensive. I.e office orientations, workshops etc… Nalandako fye.
