Prime Minister responds to Samoa Observer claims

PR – Prime Minister – and Minister in charge of Savali newspaper – Tuilaepa Sailele Malielegaoi has responded to the expose` by the Samoa Observer management on the circumstances that led to one of its former employees to now work with Savali newspaper.

Said the Prime Minister;

“The tell-all by the Samoa Observer management of the circumstances that led to the ‘letting go’ of one of their staff is not very professional. It was better and more dignified if they just said good bye and good luck to her.

Whatever happens in the workplace, the buck always stops at the desk of the manager, or in this case, the editor.

“It appears that his (editor’s) detailed and intentional tell-all was designed so that this young and talented woman will never have a job again. So that no one will hire her again.

“People often make unintentional mistakes and good managers pick up their staff when they are down. Not step on them. This is crucia when you have young and obviously very talented staff with a lot of potential.

“Good managers inspire, not ostracize all the time.

“Observer’s loss is now Savali’s gain. It has hired a very talented young writer.

“Happy Fathers’ Day�?
