| Message | Mr. Speaker There is no need to fear private industry. It seems this presidium fears it like a boogey man. When private industry is mentioned this presidium jumps into extreme communism view point and M.Ps start stressing. Relax. We commend the GNRG for not fearing private business. Raven Valentinn Minister of Internal Affairs |
