    Maybe when President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf decides to invest in someone honest and credible around the world then Mr. Archie Williams who is known as the worst crook every in the liberian aviation, Robertsfield will improve. There are competent individuals who know what the airport need because of the experience of heading it before and having the education to run it. Not lies and deceits.

    I would like see all the airport people carry a credit card swipe so I would not have to spend all my cash just to clear through there.

    Hello Mr. Williams, I agreed with you totally that the RIA needs complete rehabilitation and overhaul. The Runways and all components of the Airport including the TERMINAL Buildings, Baggage Claim Areas, Custom and Immigration and the Passenger Areas. I do not understand why the Government has failed to Renovate or Rehabilitate the Airport. It is Shameful and Disgraceful for the only International Airport in Liberia to be in such horrible and deplorable condition. What is happening to all the fees and money being collected at the? Good luck!

    After 7.5 yrs of EJS's rule in Liberia, the airport is still the same as during the civil war. Leaders without purpose always fail their people. Check history and you will find examples of failed leadership.
