Bonoyaw (B/A), June 28, GNA - The Dormaa Municipal Chief Executive, Mr. Vincent Oppong Asamoah, has assured communities in the municipality of government's commitment to implement policies that could enhance the standard of living of the people. He said this when he visited 14 communities to interact with the chiefs and people and inform them of what plans the government had to uplift infrastructure and social amenities for them. The communities he visited were Nsuhia, Asikasu, Kurem, Masu, Bonoyaw, Suromani and Dwen. Others were Yawbofokrom, Kofikumikrom, Gonokrom, Koraso, Kofiasua, Besease and Kyeremasu. Addressing separate durbars of the chiefs and people of the communities, Mr. Asamoah said the government had demonstrated its ability by improving all the good programmes initiated by the previous government and had started more projects. He said the government was counting on their cooperation and this they could do by paying their taxes, taking part in communal labour and protecting government property. Mr. Asamoah spoke against child labour particularly on cocoa farms and urged parents and guardians in cocoa producing areas of the municipality to engage themselves in "peer monitoring" to curtail the practice and allow all children access to education. "The assembly's bye-laws on education would not spare any defaulting child or parent who may flout them with impunity," Mr. Asamoah said. The communities he visited appealed to the assembly to provide them with potable water, good roads, electricity, school blocks, jobs for the youth and credit facilities to enable them to expand and maintain their farms. 28 June 10
