In late March, some disturbing news was
carried in the local media about the closure of the airport. The committee
representing the Parasi Land Trustees rebutted those claims. It was noted that this
was orchestrated by a certain disgruntled individual who appears to be concerned
about his own welfare more than anyone else. The Trustees had issued a formal
response and letter to assure the authorities and the general public of their commitment,
and the whole community at Parasi, to re-opening the airport.
