It’s critical the PNCR remains focus and ignore the many distractions
Dear Editor,
Saturday, 23 October 2010, marks yet, another important day in the calendar of the Peoples National Congress Reform (PNCR). On this our third General Council Meeting, for the year, General Council members will be tasked with that critical role of strategically positioning the PNCR to rescue Guyana come 2011.
It is, therefore, critical that we remain focus and ignore the many distractions, which have began to come our way. Let us continue to demonstrate that the plight of the Guyanese people is too overwhelming for us to be distracted by the shenanigans of current. We understand too much how the exorbitant 16% VAT is strangling us, we understand to well how pervasive corruption, nepotism and cronyism have come to characterize our national government, we live every day hoping that the blanket of crime and insecurity would mysteriously disappear. We understand the ever present fear that has overshadowed this nation over the last decade. We continue to witness the wrath of unemployment and lack of opportunity for our youths.
As we spend some time to deliberate on these and other matters, let us continuously remind ourselves that every decision we make must be made with the concerns of the people in mind and with the resolve to ensure that the PNCR continues to be that vibrant and relevant political institution Guyana expects us to be.
We are conscious, that Guyana depends on us for leadership and that we must continue to demonstrate. We have already demonstrated that we are bold and courageous enough to take that first step to revolutionize our local political landscape. Here, I refer particularly to the party’s process underway to identify its presidential candidate. The sentiments expressed so far by the Guyanese people, on this progressive initiative is heartening.
As we conclude the General Council, let us all continue to commit ourselves to strengthening of the party, not only for us but for the people of this country. To do otherwise would be to disregard the sacrifices of those who worked tirelessly to realise this most important institution.
