The results show that most WGs ran MSEs through committee members. Thus the
people that are directly involved in the day-to-day operations of the MSEs are: the
chairperson; the secretary; and the treasurer, who work as a team. However, 15 per cent
of the WGs that were sampled run their MSEs haphazardly, thus through any member
who has time and is capable of managing the MSEs. A total of 13 per cent of the WGs
indicated that chairpersons are the ones who manage the project affairs. Of those interviewed, 7 per cent indicated that they used a specialist or technical staff to run the
MSEs. Treasurers run MSEs for only 5 per cent of the sampled WGs. Some WGs also
indicated that they use secretaries to run their MSEs. However, no WG had employed a
qualified manager to run its MSEs. This may be the reason why management aspects
had adversely affected their MSEs.
