]]> The Government has been asked to offer special attention to Kalangala district in terms of transport, health and education facilities.

Immediately after swearing in to serve his 3rd term in the 9th parliament Bujumba constituency Member of Parliament Fred Bada told journalist at parliament that Kalangala island has a large population but government doesn’t offer enough funds to enable them develop themselves.

He noticed that qualified persons deny working in the area because of poor infrastructure. So he has called upon government to offer special initiatives to attract workers.

Bada added that the islands are considered to accommodate many infected persons but he attributed to ignorance about preventive measures of HIV/AIDS.

He called upon government to increase health funds and HIV/AIDS counselor to sensitize the people about HIV/AIDS.

]]> Leaders from Kalangala district have started advocating for the third constituency. Speaking to journalists at parliament the district woman mp Ruth Nvumeta Kavuma says that the islands are scattered and this has made the work for current MPs difficult.

She says that they want an MP who can reach to the people in order to make effective representation.

Kavuma says that they cannot advocate for the district but its better if they are given another constituency. Currently the district is made up of two constituencies; Kyamuswa and Buvuma representing the more than 60 islands that make up Kalangala district.

She says that currently, MPs fail to reach at all points to consult withthe people and therefore they don’t play their role accordingly.
