Things like this never happened here before but Sethi Brothers
built house all over here and they have built in the places where
the water used to pass, Old lady Miatta said.
If the government can help to take us from this suffering by
opening the drainages, we will be really happy. When it starts to
rain we dont sleep. We are all worried, we really need help said
another resident Makoya Dukuly.
According to the chairman of the Ballima Community, Mulbah
Dukuly, 56 houses and over 10,000 people have been affected by
the flood.
Dukuly said lots of properties, including mattresses and food have
been destroyed by the water.
The Chairman said he is kindly appealing to the government and
other humanitarian groups to come to the aid of the residents.
We want to let the nation and government knows what has
happened to us in Ballima. The water has damaged all of our
residences, foods and even mattresses.
An official of the Ministry of Public Works, Claude Langley Deputy
Minister for Technical Services, on Tuesday told lawmakers that
the flooding of the city and other parts of the country is due to the
lack of capacity by his ministry to respond.
According to Langley, most of the drainages are being clogged by
solid waste thrown into it by community members. The Ministry
says it does not have any equipment to clean the drainage.
He blames the over flooding of the city to the construction of
structures over drainages and a result of the outdated zoning
map currently in use. He called on the Legislature to make the
needed appropriations for the ministry to enable it get some of
the equipment needed.

far as the United States and the World Trade Organization

http://www.counterpunch.org/2015/08/28/how-the-usand-the-wto-crushed-indias-subsidies-for-solar-energy/
Several economists such as Mr. Gojko Barjamovic, an expert
in ancient languages and culture at Harvard University
agreed with some of Global Exchanges points, especially
the widening of the gap of income inequality. In their
study, they included economic activities between 1890 B.C.
and 1860 B.C. for one community in the town of Kanesh,
what is now called Iraq. Among the parallels with todays
economic activities, governments did enforce regulations
and reprimanded wrongdoers. Another parallel was a
privileged few gained enormous wealth. However, unlike
today, the wealthy did redistribute a high percentage of
their earnings, which was used to build public educational
system, network of public libraries, public parks, etc., the
economists reported.
The wealthy are not only reluctant to contribute a portion
of their wealth to finance social programs, but have created
a complex monetary system to generate additional wealth.
Or as Adam Davidson of the New York Magazine stated
that the rich has engineered basic architecture of a new
global financial system in which economic calculus, not
military and political power would determine where
money flows
WTO is part of that the economic calculus to shield
and generate more wealth from flawed concessionary
agreements, of course in collaboration with its sisterorganizations (The World Bank and International Monetary
Funds). The economic calculus begins with international
companies providing the money that World Bank uses
to loan to poor countries. Thereafter, the World Bank/
IMF identifies which multinational companies (Mittal
Steel or Bridgestone; parent of Liberian Firestone Rubber
Plantation) will manage natural resources. So, indirectly,
Liberia did borrow from Firestone.
If the adage is true that He who pays the piper calls the
tune, then poor countries are not only indirectly under the
control of the World Bank, but also are under the indirect
control of international companies. WTO, with legal
provisions, comes in to seal the financial relationship after
the money-lending connection between the poor countries
and the World Bank, and big business, by extension. As
a member, investors can now file lawsuits within the
WTO, even if local courts have given a ruling on the same
issue. For example, the three-panel judges can determine
whether amending any of the flawed concessionary
agreements is good for business or not. In view of the get
rich quick mentality, investors will not only fight against
amending the flawed concessionary agreements, but might
file lawsuits at the WTO to coerce countries such as Liberia
to relax its environmental laws or allow Mittal steel to
pollute the rivers in Liberia. That is why a country such as
Liberia was lured into the WTO, even though its exports
are miniscule to pose any challenge to the importation of
goods and services.

trooped to the
Paynesville
Town Hall to access free
medical care provided by the
municipality of the City of
Paynesville in partnership
with various medical centers
in Paynesville.
The free medical care was
provided to the locals as part of
a Health Fair organized by the
Paynesville City Corporation.
The health fair began with a
bike ride which was led by the
Mayor of Paynesville Cyvette
Gibson in major streets in the
municipality.
Mayor Gibson said the bike ride
was intended to encourage
bike riding in the city and it is
her hope that it will be done
twice every year.
At the fair, all of the medical
institutions had separate
centers in the hall with their
staffers seen willing to receive
people who had come to seek
free medical care.
A mother of two, Kebbeh
Flahn, thanked PCC for such
an initiative in the city and
said she was grateful to have
benefitted from the Health Fair.
Flahn said it is her hope that
the fair is done more than once.
Flahn continued: "Well the
process is fine, I came to
check my health status, some
treatments were given to
me, and they treated me and
referred me to JFK."
Another beneficiary, Mamie
Johnson, said the health fair is
good because it helps people to
know their health status.
Johnson said, she was treated,
given medications and advised
to do a follow up at a local
hospital.
You see it is difficult for us to
do our checkup when we fall

She added: "I want to thank

She said she hopes that such
initiative continues, adding
that the fair should be done on
a regular basis.
The City Mayor of Paynesville,
Cyvette Gibson said the fair is
intended to ensure that people
have access to proper medical
care.
Gibson said: "We decided to
have a health fair because
we wanted to make sure our
citizens have access to proper
healthcare. One of the reasons
we found this necessary is
because we want to build

about
the Liberia amputee
soccer team that came to the
United States over a month
ago. It appears the three-time
African Nation Tournament
champions
are
stranded,
and some say their current
situation is their own making.
According to members of the
team (15 in all), they had been
invited by the United States
Amputees Football Federation
to take part in an international
friendly match that was
supposed to be held in the state
of Maryland in early August
this year. But before they could
leave Liberia, the tournament
had been canceled.
Still, the team decided to
come to the United States but
without proper arrangements
in terms of accommodation.
Now it appears they are
having a tough time in terms
of meeting their basic daily
needs.
Rough conditions in Liberia
Cooper Melvin Goteh, president
of the Liberia Amputee Soccer
Association, told VOA the team
came to the United States
despite the cancelation of
their tournament to explain
to the world the deplorable
conditions under which they
live in Liberia.
He said Liberian amputees lack
decent housing, education, and
food and many have turned to
panhandling in front of hotels.
Goteh said the team came to
the United States despite their
tournament being canceled to
appeal for assistance.
We knew that actually on the
23rd of June the tournament
was canceled but we had other
appointments. So thats why
we use the opportunity to
come to America. We felt that

MONROVIA,
his West African
nation,
which
the World Health
Organization
this
month declared Ebola-free,
is facing a new threat: Chinas
economic slowdown.
Turmoil in the worlds
second-largest economy has
roiled emerging markets.
African nations such as
Liberia count on China as
one of their largest export
destinations and a major
donor and investor.
Liberia is contending with
the likelihood of a long period
of low commodity prices and
falling Chinese demand.
Their slowdown is affecting
the commodity markets
that are so important to
Liberia and other African
countries, Christine Lagarde,
the International Monetary
Funds managing director,
said during a two-day visit to
Liberia last week.
Combined with an expected
increase in interest rates by
the U.S. Federal Reserve, a
move that would push up
rates across the world, that
makes your massive effort of
conducting democracy and
growth in a postconflict and
post-epidemic environment
even more difficult, the IMF
chief said.
Production
of
major
exports such as iron ore
and unprocessed rubber
was already down because
of the epidemic. As Chinas
economy cools faster than
many expected, that has sent
commodity prices into a nose
dive.
That
means
smaller
export receipts, declining
government revenue and
delays and cancellations of
planned investments, Ms.
Lagarde said.
She pressed the Liberian
government to move ahead
TOLL ON LIBERIA
with
economic
policies
the fund says will revive
growth prospects, unlock
IMF emergency financing
and encourage donors and
investors to pour muchneeded cash into the country.
Liberias
economy
was
growing at a healthy 8%
annual rate after two decades
of civil war ended in 2003.
But in 2014, the Ebola virus
hit the country, ravaging the
small nation. The disease
killed about 4,800 Liberians,
more than 1% of the
population.
With
little
health
infrastructure,
the
government
initially
struggled to contain the virus.
Farmers abandoned their
fields, shop owners shut their
stores and manufacturers cut
output. Exports fell by more
than 10% for two consecutive
years and the economyin
which 80% of the population
lives on less than $1.25 a
daywas pushed into a deep
recession.
The
WHO
said
the
government
has
finally
stemmed
transmissions
with the help of a flood of
international aid and health
workers.
Now that we are Ebolafreewe can use full force
in moving our economy and
our nation forward, said
President Ellen Johnson
Sirleaf.
The IMF said that to do so, the
government needs to scale

instead of building up

Efficient public spending is
not only important for fiscal
reasons, but also to obtain
broad public acceptance for
public investment projects,
Ms. Lagarde said in a speech
at Monrovias city hall on
Friday.
Finance Minister Amara
Konneh said after two
days of meetings that the
government would address
the IMFs concerns.
We
are
committed
to

to use them appropriately,
adding that Liberia has

worst crisis since the end of
the conflict.
