Mliswa Orders Chinese Company To Cease Operations Forthwith

Norton Member of Parliament, Themba Mliswa, has ordered Chinese-owned tiles manufacturing company located in his constituency to cease all operations with immediate effect.

The outspoken Independent MP wrote a letter to the company’s Deputy Managing Director William Gung, demanding that Sunny Yi Feng Tiles Zimbabwe, of Sunny Yi Feng Industrial Park, Lot 3 Knockmalloch Farm, Norton, cease operations forthwith in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. The letter reads:

In my capacity as the Member of Parliament with the mandate of legislation, oversight and representation, and in accordance with Statutory Instrument 77/2020, I hereby demand that you hereby cease all operations at the Sunny Yi Feng Industrial Park with immediate effect.

The demand hereby made is in light of the risk posed by the threat of contamination by the Coronavirus (COVID-19) which has seen unsupervised and precarious quarantine systems practised at your premises.

Furthermore, the overcrowding on the premises serves as a perfect conduit for the rapid spread of the disease and must, therefore, be addressed.

Norton does not have the facilities or capacity to handle an outbreak of the Coronavirus if it is to occur, and this demand is thereby made to protect the innocent residents who may be exposed to the virus from persons on your premises suspected to be infected.

As a Member of Parliament, it is incumbent on me to safeguard people’s lives and health and I, therefore, trust that you will take this demand with the seriousness it deserves and comply urgently.
