FAIRPLAY PLEASE

FRO has been such a filthy office that needs a tough cleansing process. The ADM has finally started working in that direction. We must appreciate what she’s doing and encourage her to do more. We understand that she has inherited problems and a bunch of criminals from her predecessors.

We have so far seen 2 major steps: Suspension of some staff members due to undisclosed reasons and the acknowledgment of hiring malpractices which have caused stress to many ambitious and hard working staff and caused many others to abstain from participating in any competition.

FROnt blog team has noted some partiality and unfairness in this cleansing process and would like to put it as simply as possible in the form of a question:

“Why should some be suspended right away while others are given a chance to improve and correct their mistakes by sending them to refresher training?”

We are faced here with 2 different actions: A disciplinary action versus a corrective action. Who deserve what? Why these and not those? Are those suspended worse than those responsible for hiring malpractices? We don’t know the real reasons behind the suspension but hiring friends and relatives and playing with government budget is certainly a major breach.

Let’s hope that the ADM studies carefully case by case and act fairly. We sure want a clean FRO but we also want a just process.
