Saipan Chamber of Commerce was terribly disappointed the other night when its first election forum was deliberately boycotted by some candidates running for House seats. SCC president expressed his disappointment and wondered why they didn't show up. Apparently he was aware of the buzz around the island that the precinct 3 candidates would boycott the forum because of what he wrote on the paper about the SCC's disappointment with the Legislature's overriding of the Gov. veto on CUC bill.
SCC president said it was the position of the SCC and the current members of the Legislature especially those that are seeking re-election did not consult or seek advice from the Chamber.
"If you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen," he said.
When you get stuck along Beach Road, better take the Middle Road. This is a website for those who choose to tread Saipan's off the beaten path. * + * + * + * + * + * + * + * + * + * + * + * + * + * + * + * + * + * + * + * + * + * + * + * + * + * + * + * + * + * + * + * + * + * +

...and Juan Pan is right! So who are the members of Club Boycott? Let me guess...was Luis one of them?
precinct 3. probably. we'll see tonight and on monday.
Silly has written a long response on the issue on his blog at sillysocrates.blogspot.com
From what I've garnered, the community in general is quite disappointed with the rate-cut overide by the legislature.
So, are these precinct 3 candidates going to boycott most of the community.
This is just an excuse for them to get out of answering the hard questions. To get out of owning up to what they did.
