@ntsietsebeletso No way. The reality of our meager resources, low execution capacity, corruption and a shockingly ethically bankrupt civil service, mean that we cannot pin our hopes on just that. For me, flattening the curve through you and I changing our behavior, is the tip of our spear.
@rethabileMakhob@LitlhareR@tselengmokotso@Motlatsi_RC I voluntarily decided NOT to earn anything from DMA/NACOSEC. The disbelief I get from people hearing this has been surprising to me. It just showed me how important money is to most people. I would have thought going to war for your country for no salary would be a no brainer.
@lebelos@kanonor Indeed. It’s a worrying trend that has been the norm for years now. It’s indicative of the lowest ethical standards in our civil service. The culture is toxic.
@ntsietsebeletso Ensuring that our health care system has enough ICU hospital beds, nurses and doctors to take care of you and I if and when we catch the virus and cannot breath. Without such capacity, you and I will go to hospital only to die NEEDLESSLY.
@LitlhareR@tselengmokotso@Motlatsi_RC@LitlhareR I cannot get wealth from a zero salary. Yes, ZERO as in M0.00 per month. You can have the job is you doubt. But be prepared for 7 days a week high stress engagement. Again, for NOTHING monetarily except the satisfaction of knowing that you are serving your nation.
@Godfrey05389944 There is no LRA unless we deal with COVID. We are headed for economic Armageddon; collapsed tax collections and business sales and profits, not to talk about SACU revenues. No job is more important as this one.Nketjoane o shoelletse mohloling. Go there to fix problem. I submit
@Motlatsi_RC@tselengmokotso@Motlatsi_RC, for me this is NOT a job. It’s voluntary national service. I derive zero personal benefit from it. 100% for 0% benefit. National service for which I will forever be proud. I’m playing my part carrying out an assignment most would avoid like a plague.
@motselisi Tseli, I love my LRA job. This DMA Assignment is national service. I don’t get paid. It’s largely thankless. It’s also turning political; 3 years is merely contract max time. Why would I WANT to do it except for the fact that I feel someone NEEDS to do it? Btw, would you do it?
Just to make it clear that I haven’t as yet taken over at the Command Center. If the administrative processes go according to plan, I should be starting on Monday.
