Broke Tourism Ministry fails to pay the dead

In a candid interview yesterday, Khama said according to policy, the Ministry is supposed to pay P50,000 for each person killed by animals and P20,000 for funeral expenses.

“In the last financial year, for our compensation budget we requested for P10 million but received about P4 million. Some people who had property damaged by wildlife were not paid. We have not paid nine people who lost their lives due to animal attacks,” Khama revealed.
