Free education system is viable for an economically sound country,
Unfortunately, it has generated a bunch of professional doctors who are ripping the tax system and fleecing the poor pensioners.
Please introduce a means test and Health Card for the poor.
Nice to read, but not even telling half of the story. To produce the mentioned products a lot of know how and investment is needed. SL would always compete with China, because the wonderful vein graphite will not differ significantly once turned into the nano material mentioned in the article. With production costs being half of what it will be when mining underground in SL guess where this is going. Finally turning graphite to battery material it takes more than mining. Purification and shaping of the material is energy intensive. Not good for a country with high electricity costs. Then shipping and importing the material to China where all the battery makers and competitor are. No idea how this should fly …. Making waves with words seems easy, but thinking might be a little bit harder …

That bridge certainly needs attention, and its appears many , too,many, years that attention is is very much needed. However do not touch the pristine natural environment by imitating alien approach to development and destroy of what is naturally left. Most of the tourist areas have lost its natural beauty bythe haphazard way of construction. We must retain our uniqueness as compared to other destinations.
I totally agree with Gurusinha, Schools play too many matches a season, some as many as 20 matches. The standard of some of the Schools are well below par, this makes the games less competetive and gives players false confidence. In my view no more than 10 to 12 good competetive matches should be played by each school in separate divisions with promotions and demotions for the top and bottom two teams. there is an amormous amount of talent in the schools that can be harnessed to make the national team world champions again.
as long as the natural beauty of the area is not changed nor scarred. This would lead giving contracts to supporters whose main objective is profit. The tourist, who come hear will want the unspoiled and natural environment, and to have cement and monstrous concrete structures would drive them away. There are far too many vehicles in the parks in a given moment,that have a very bad effect on animals and other living organisms.
