THE personal sacrifices made by the Opposition parliamentarians and staff members of the Land Transport Authority is worthy of acknowledgement and praise.

For them to part with a portion of their salaries as their contribution towards bringing much needed relief and assistance to the victims of Severe TC Winston speaks volumes of the depth of their generosity and feeling of empathy for the down trodden.

It shows they are willing to forgo their own comforts to make lives better for others.

Now that truly exemplifies what is meant by “think not what the country can do for you but think what you can do for the country and its people”.
