ANAND Goolsarran knows nothing about transparency and accountability

I have observed Anand Goolsarran has made yet another public appearance posing as an authority on matters concerning the procurement and asset management systems of the Ministry of Finance. He claims that billions of dollars could be lost as a result of the Ministry’s failure to use all existing modules. But I am curious how Anand Goolsarran came up with this conclusion? Does he work at the Ministry of Finance or have access to their records? I am really interested to know what is the basis for his analysis and thesis?
Was this same methodology used when he worked in the Auditor General’s office under the leadership of the PNC and Carl Greenidge, the then Minister of Finance? Did he recognise then that his office did nothing to demonstrate accountability or transparency? What was the state of our nation’s assets and how were they procured under the leadership of Mr. Greenidge? There are no known public documents that indicate that even after he became Auditor General anything was suggested, recommended or implemented to aid in transparency of government business or that would support effective or efficient management systems. So what qualifies Anand Goolsarran to speak on this matter now? Where is his experience; and what had he accomplished while in office?  The answers are simple. He accomplished nothing, supported the corrupt practices of the then administration in exchange for his appointment as Auditor General but is now masquerading as a moral and professional authority on transparency and accountability.
Anand Goolsarran needs to remember: people who live in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones.
