Quotes
I will be in breach of party procedures if I am to divulge the reasons for my protest to the media.
I will not file a protest with the party. However, my main worry is that many of my supporters did not vote. Hundreds of people especially the elderly who have backed the party for years are not happy because they did not vote. This is not a true reflection of what the people wanted. I will not blame voters for my loss but the voters roll.

While BMC has not yet returned to profitability, there has been improved performance in terms of revenue, gross profit and throughput between the 2022 and 2023 financial years.
This strategy focuses on stemming the financial losses, lessening operational inefficiencies through the improved logistics of acquiring raw material or throughput, as well as addressing plant and process maintenance more cost effectively.
BMC continues to record positive revenues and improved throughput levels, and is gaining access to fast growing lucrative markets such as the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
Out of this P67.7m or 68 per cent is owed to farmers, while P31.2 million or 32 per cent is owed to a variety of suppliers including utilities and packaging materials.
The performance of the BMC has improved since the implementation of the 2022/25 turnaround strategy effective January 2022. The improvement is expected to continue in the current financial year (2024) and beyond. The improvement will further be boosted by the recent penetration of the AUE market.
This is a risk-minimisation intervention aimed at improving product distribution turnaround times. Payments from customers will be quicker. This will go a long way in facilitating the realisation of the standard set for farmer’s payments.
To this end a budget provision of P390 million, which comprise of P160 million for the revitalisation of the tannery, and P230 million for the development of the Value Addition and Secondary Processing Plant Project is planned for all Capital Expenditure requirements in the current and next financial year 2024/25
These include free transportation across the country since November 2022 for non EU designated suppliers.
