	Karl Offmann - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Karl Offmann’s activities within the J.O.C.I gave him a better insight into and a deeper understanding of the very intricate and convoluted nature of the social problems facing the poorer classes.
		Karl Offmann served successively as Minister of Economic Planning and Development (August 1983), Minister of Local Government and Co-operatives (1984-1986), Minister of Social Security, National Solidarity and Reform Institutions (January 1988-1991) and as Government Chief Whip from 1988 to 1991.
		Karl Offmann was unrelenting and stood his ground when, with the support of his two friends and colleagues, he drove home the fact that the leader of the MSM was still the man who would lead the party to success and to victory in an election.
