The fact is under his guidance we have passed these test. The IMF can only suggest. Many of the things that have been done should have been done by the PNP and then Shaw long time ago such as selling of Air J, Sugar, Lowerin interest rate etc. but because of lack of political will it was not done. The IMF can give him the blue print. The IMF had suggested most of these things to the PNP in their evaluations years ago but it wasn't done.

Ratings agency Moody's has cut the Republic of Ireland's debt rating to junk status.
Moody's said its decision was based on the "growing possibility" that Ireland would need a second bail-out before it can return to capital markets.
The current European Union and International Monetary Fund support programme is due to end in late 2013.
It comes at a time when markets fear the debt crisis in the eurozone could spread to Italy and Spain.
Ireland, Greece and Portugal have all been downgraded by ratings agencies several times in recent months.
Last week, the European Commission raised the issue of the "appropriateness of behaviour" of agencies, and Greek Foreign Minister Stavros Lambrinidis said the agencies had exacerbated an already difficult situation. In its latest downgrade, Moody's cut Ireland's ratings by one notch to Ba1 from Baa3.
And the agency warned that further downgrades were possible if the Irish government failed to meet its deficit reduction targets, or if Greece were to default, thereby causing further market disruption.
