GH AND REGIONAL GOVTS ARE NOT SERIOUS. GO TO CANADA AND US. EVERY YEAR, THEIR CITIZENS FILE TAXES AND THEY GET A REBATE. THIS ALONE IS AN INCENTIVE FOR EVERY CITIZEN TO PY TAXES. AFTER ALL THESE YRS, WE DONT THINK IN FORWARD INCREMENTS. AFTER ALL THESE YRS, NO PRESIDENT HAS MADE IT A POINT OF THEIR MANDATE. TO STRUCTURE ALL MAJOR CITIES AND REGIONAL CAPITALS WITH IDENTIFIABLE STREET NAMES, ADDRESSES, AND POSTAL CODES. WHY CANT WE ASPIRE FOR ANYTHING BETTER AS BLACK PPL? MAHAMA, U WENT TO NEW YORK N ATLANTA. DIDNT U SEE HOW PLANNED THESE CITIES ARE? IT IS MAINLY FOR TAXATION AND IDENTIFICATION PURPOSES. SO WHY DONT U GO FOR A LOAN AND USE IT TO DO THE SAME IN GH? INFACT, IF I WERE A G7 NATION, I WOULD NEVER GIVE A DIME TO GH. TOO STUPID. U CANT EVEN LEARN OR COPY. PUMPING MONEY INTO PUBLIC SERVICE ISNT THE WAY TO GO. ESP IN TODAY'S CASH STRAPPED, TECHNOLOGY INSPIRED WORLD. GOVT MUST STREAMLINE THE PUBLIC SECTOR.
WE HAVE DISTRICT, MUNICIPAL/CITY, REGIONAL AND FEDERAL GOVT . STREAMLINE THE GOVT N REMOVE THESE QUACK/QUASI, USELESS GOVT INSTITUTIONS WHICH EXIST BUT DONT DO ANYTHING TO RENDER EFFICIENT SERVICE OR COLLECT REVENUE.
1.CHECK PUBLIC SECTOR CORRUPTION. INSTITUTE CORRUPTION COURTS!
2.REDUCE PUBLIC SECTOR WAGES.
It is for this reason that all governments, especially their finance ministers and their teams, always make it a priority to stop the ghost names phenomenon that has bloated the payroll in
the public service. Regrettably, the phenomenon is still alive in the public service at this stage when we are told that about 70 per cent of our revenue is used to service the public wage bill.
3.HIRE LESS PPL TO PROVIDE EFFICIENT SERVICE. WE NEED DISCIPLINE, CLEAR OVERSIGHT, CHECK N BALANCES N PATRIOTIC HARDWORKERS IN THE SYSTEM.
4. FACTORIES
GH REVENUE SOURCE: TAXES. INTEREST ON LOANS, GRANTS FROM OUTSIDE FOR REVENUE GENERATING INFRAS VENTURES IN GH. STREAMLINE INDUSTRIES, GOVT MUST CUT DOWN SPENDING,
WIDEN TAX BASE, EXPORT MORE, IMPORT LESS N SELL IMPORTS AT HIGH PRICES.

They made tax and business easy for entrepreneurs to expand their business.That is why all the rich industries are going there and the country has become very rich as well,we even go there for loans.Can't we do the same thing here?Thank you.

Mr.Banda, I disagree with you. Tax collection should never be a persuasive action.You pay your tax or you do not pay,and the penalties for evading tax payments must be very,very severe and very unpleasant.Make it unprofitable not to pay tax.The government must from now on adopt a very hard approach.
