Two po­lit­i­cal sci­en­tists agree that the Gov­ern­ment should fo­cus on di­ver­si­fy­ing the econ­o­my in their first 100 days in of­fice, even as they work on the mid-term Bud­get re­view, to find ways to de­liv­er on their many cam­paign promis­es.

To­mor­row will mark one month since Prime Min­is­ter Kam­la Per­sad-Bisses­sar’s Cab­i­net was sworn in fol­low­ing the April 28 Gen­er­al Elec­tion. They will mark 100 days in of­fice on Au­gust 11.

The an­a­lysts al­so say the fail­ure to com­mence the first Par­lia­men­tary sit­ting af­ter the cer­e­mo­ni­al open­ing on May 23 was not the Gov­ern­ment drag­ging its feet but par for the course with a change in ad­min­is­tra­tion.
