DEAR EDITOR,
The recent revelations in Kaieteur News that Bai Shan Lin has and continues to destroy Guyana’s pristine forests have caused us to reflect on these questions: What are the nation’s shared values? What is wrong with the PPP regime? Why are they bent on destroying Guyana?
Their actions are clear indications that they are putting their financial interests and those of their relatives and friends first, and not the country and people.
They are stripping Guyana of all its valuable assets and resources so that nothing but crumbs will be left for the people. They have become power drunk and want to remain in office at all cost with no plan to be humble, no plan to serve, no plan to toil, no plan to let the truth lead the way. What we have in Guyana is a corrupt group of politicians in the regime who are arrogant and who want to get ahead politically by using race as a tool of division.
They abuse the words “unity and economic development.” They are of the opinion that if they cannot rule the country, then they will do everything in their power to destroy it, give away its forests, rape the treasury, bankrupt the country and turned the masses into paupers and beggars.
The sadness in the whole episode is that Guyana has sunk to the lowest level under this ruthless regime. The PNCR is not helpful either, in that it does not know how to capitalize on the weaknesses of the PPP. The PNCR continues to frustrate its grass-roots supporters and should APNU lose the next elections they cannot blame anyone else but themselves. Through their own doing, they have alienated the youths and the thousands of Guyanese who might not have wanted to support the PPP. These youths are likely to stay away from the polls in the next election if the PNCR does not get its act together quickly. Except for Carl Greenidge, Joe Harmon, Basil Williams and Ronald Bulkan who have and continue to expose the wicked PPP regime, its other MPs are nowhere to be seen or heard. It seems as though they do not have a fighting spirit, and this is why the responsibility of the opposition has fallen on the AFC leadership who have to be credited with the “no confidence” motion which is needed to get rid of the ruling cabal.
The whole unfortunate truth in this matter is that APNU as the main opposition has not lived up to expectations. They have single handedly allowed the PPP to handcuff them by taking away their most potent weapon—peaceful protests and demonstrations. It leaves one to wonder if the PNCR has become a destructive force within itself, because all they do is to “put their foot into their mouths” Is this party a government in waiting? It’s up to the people to decide on who should lead the coalition to defeat the PPP!
