While many businesses, roads and schools on the East Bank Demerara (Region four) were sparsely populated on Thursday, as the country awaited the results of the 2011’s General Election, Region Two, on the other hand, was ‘blooming’ as usual.
Georgetown, meanwhile, looked like a‘ghost town’. But many Essequibians were seen ‘doing their usual business’. Schools across the region were populated as usual; businesses were untroubled and people were busy carrying on with their lives.
Farmers were also busy nurturing their crops, even as they awaited the delivery of the result of the elections.
