No one loves the camera like Dr.Esther Byer-Suckoo, Minister of Labour. While she seeks “every” photo opportunity possible to give the “illusion of progress” (which she is good at) the Bajan unemployment rate continues to sky rocket. She appears “GREAT FROM FAR” but as the head of the Ministry of Labour, however when you get “close” she is “FAR FROM GOOD”. As an example her ministry has a total of (7) job postings in a country of approximately 270,000+ people…”something is not right”.
According to the Ministry of Labour’s website Dr. Esther Byer-Suckoo has stressed that her Ministry is “HOPING to be much more PROACTIVE, and start to institute some programmes that would allow Barbadians to take advantage of those opportunities when they come”. Unfortunately the question then becomes “WHEN DR.BYER-SUCKOO, WHEN?” you had 4 years, the time to be proactive is GONE, and so is the “HOPE” in you coming from your St. George South Constituency.
According to the Ministry of Labour online stats unemployment in Barbados (which should be a primary focus of a Ministry of Labour) continues to rise with “NO REAL EFFORT, OTHER THEN PHOTO OPPORTUNITIES” coming from DR.BYER-SUCKOO .
Unemployment Labour Force (data from Ministry of Labour website):
Year Total
2008 11.7%
2009 14.2%
2010 15.3%
But according to the DLP things are “Not that BAD in Barbados, and they are still HOPING”…… ”right, the DLP “wait and see” strategy?”
“ESTHER LOOK A CAMERA … ”
