“Hiding the truth from the people again”

Mayadas, GM of SMB Trading Division.

Last week Mr. Jayant Mayadas SMB’s General Manager in the Trading Division went on SBC to substantiate the recent increases in the price of powdered milk. Mr. Mayadas gave a catalogue of reasons as why the SMB has to increase the price of milk. He even went as far as saying that drought in Australia is partly to be blamed for the price increase of milk in Seychelles

Tin of Nido powdered milkWe would like to let Mr. Mayadas know that if he believes that he has fooled anyone with his utterances on SBC last week he should think again. The Seychellois public is aware that the devaluation of the Seychelles Rupee is one of the main factors for the price increases. The European euro was selling at nine rupees this week Mr. Mayadas. “You can fool all of the people some of the time; some people all of the time, but not all the people all the time!” We can lay a wager on it - he never listens to Bob Marley, otherwise he would not have wasted his time to come and play this old mantra “Hiding the truth from the people again” on prime time television.
