Dear
Honourable,
RE: Public Hearing on Project Affected Peoples As you may be aware, the
implementation of the above project has nearly reached the end of phase
one and the project contractors together with the implementors are about
to embark on the second and final phase. However, phase one of the SMHPP
has unfortunately been marked by a series of controversies and valid
grievances from the affected communities, and its implementation has been
anything but smooth.
