00:00Former Rural Development Minister Faris al-Rawi gives his synopsis of the UNC's 100 days in office.
00:08In 100 days, 11,000 CPAP workers fired, 5,000 URP workers fired, 5,000 forestry workers fired, 400 WASA workers fired, 900 Regional Health Authority No. 1 workers fired, 700 in another Regional Health Authority fired.
00:38200 change agents in Rural Development Local Government fired, 10 WASA managers fired, 2,800 workers inside of the temporary program in HTC fired.
00:56He estimates about 30,000 workers were fired in 100 days.
01:00On the issue of his involvement in CPAP's extension of contracts without a cabinet note.
01:06I saw this little fellow last night stand up and tell the people that they have launched criminal action, the government has taken criminal action in the CPAP matter.
01:20Newspapers today, quoting legal proceedings against Faris al-Rawi.
01:28I had calls to go on the radio today, legal proceedings.
01:32I have received no pre-action protocol.
01:35No threat.
01:37I have received no knock on the door from the police.
01:41I hear him talk that the big news story in this country is about a cabinet decision.
01:47Al-Rawi expresses fearlessness when it comes to anyone implicating him in wrongdoing.
01:54Number one, the DPP has no powers to investigate anything.
01:59He can get a file and send it by the police.
02:02And I welcome that.
02:02No problems.
02:04Two, by the time you get to the police, you have to explain yourself.
02:10Why you leave out the 2017 cabinet note?
02:13Why you count and you get them count 1, 2, and 3 and you forget 4?
02:18Why you left out all of the history of your hirings?
02:23Why you didn't pay the people?
02:24Because you see, ladies and gentlemen, the real fight in here is 11,000 people have no money
02:32and they want to distract you by calling my name.
02:35He calls the nation's attention to the involvement of Senior Counsel Anand Ramblokan
02:40in the CPAP and other state legal matters.
02:44I am told today on Good Sources, an instruction has gone out by Cal
02:50that all legal work must go to Freedom House by Anand Ramblokan.
02:54That's what I'm told.
02:56I'm going to check it out.
02:58I know that they're dealing with the Jack Warner matter.
03:02They fire all the lawyers in the matter.
03:04The leading expert in extradition, gone.
03:08They hire a little junior counsel from England.
03:11I ain't seen more on that just yet.
03:13Al-Rawi says there are other high court matters which will be revealed in due course
03:18which will, according to him, shock the nation.
