Health Minister On The Exit of Carlos Perrera
posted (July 16, 2014)

And we take a break from the police promotion ceremony, and continue with our discussion on the current urgent matters at the KHMH.

As we’ve told you, Director of Finance Carlos Perrera was terminated by the KHMH Board. The Audit Team which will investigate the purchase of those X-Ray Machines will look into a section of his tenure at the Hospital’s Finance Department. We asked his Minister, Pablo Marin, about the political implications of his vacation from that post, given that Perrera was his political colleague.

"Carlos Perrera is your political colleague, what is your feeling, he has been for months now at odds with the board, there has been a lot of reports of unauthorized trips of discrepancies in finance, what’s your feelings towards that politically."

Hon. Pablo Marin – Minister of Health
"Well you know everything affects us politically, anything that we do, anything that we say affects us politically, but at this point of time once we call in the audit, that means that we don't mind who you are and where you are located, or your status, we will investigate, and that’s what we are doing, investigating."
