An examination of today’s rulers

Sep 17, 2014 Letters

Dear Editor,
My day is not complete unless I read your online news, thank you and my Great Islander Mr. Lall for making this possible! I really like Mr. Kissoon’s column.  Please publish my article in you publication – WHY DOES THE PPP AND THEIR SUPPORTERS GOVERN GUYANA LIKE USSR/RUSSIA BUT LIVE THEIR LIVIES AS AMERICANS, CANADIAN AND BRITISH?
I will summarized in the interest of space in you publication.
1.       Dr. Jagan, the father of the Nation as PPP and its supporter would like Guyanese to believe, was educated in America and married an American. I would like to point out, not Russia, Cuba, China or North Korea.
2.       Dr. Jagan did not believe in Hinduism or God as his parents and 99% of Guyanese did and still do.  He was responsible for not having Hindi taught in schools as a second language instead he approved Spanish.
3.       Dr. Jagan said he was representing the poor farmers but himself did not farm, or came from a poor home or was poor himself. How can someone feel your pain, when that person knew none of the same?
4.       How much of America’s democracy and progress did Dr. Jagan and the PPP inform the Guyanese Population about during their Political campaigns before Independence? The Empire State Building with 103 stories was completed in 1931; today the PPP needs the Chinese to build a ten-storey privileged hotel for the elite.
The Hoover Dam construction started in 1931 and was completed in 1936. It produces more than twice the power Guyana consumes today.  Still we are searching for a reputable builder of HYDRO POWER in Guyana in 2015.
Sugar was the West Indies most valuable export but today, the PPP in partnership with China can’t get a mill to work properly even after spending 200 million US dollars.
5.       Dr Jagan fought against the Capitalist System and America all his life but died in America while seeing medical help. Why did he not go Cuba or Russia?
6.       How many of the PPP supporters get their daily bread from American, Canada, England or Capitalist foreign Nations? I know many PPP supporters who live and get their daily bread in America but still hate America and the capitalist system.
7.       How many of the PPP Ministers’ families, including wives and children, are living in America and Canada?
8.       How many of the PPP Ministers and elites pay for their children‘s and siblings education?
9.       How many of the PPP Minsters children and siblings get the education in Guyana and not American, Canadian and British institutions? Dr. Jagan’s son will always be remembered for smoking drugs on Guyanese taxpayers hard earned dollars in a Canadian University.
10.   How many of the PPP members/supporters and their siblings go on vacation to Russia, Cuba, China or North Korea?
11.   How many of the PPP supporters live in Russia, Cuba, China or North Korea?
12.   How much yearly remittance does the Guyanese economy benefit from Russia, Cuba, China or North Korea?
13.   How many of the PPP Ministers and high ranking officials have their surgical interventions in Guyana, Cuba, Russia, China or North Korea?
14.   The fact is, more Guyanese and descendants of Guyanese are progressing in America, Canada, Britain and democracies around the Globe, why does the PPP Partnered in the past and current with communist countries – Cuba, China, Russia etc.?
In this upcoming Election, I plead, will all to vote for Law and order, Democracy, Capitalism, progress, unity and most of all, for a better life for us and our families?
Thank you Mr. Editor and Mr. Lall.
Ronald Persaud
Leguan.
