Chanderpaul want special treatment

Sep 17, 2015 Dem Boys Seh, Features / Columnists, News

Many things got to change in this country. Soulja Bai and his government got a lot of work to do. People answering phone in dem office when de public call and dem ah refuse to identify demself.
Dem mek you believe that Guyana develop like America or Europe wheh machine does answer people.
Yesterday, de Waterfalls boss man call 223-7521. That is de Ministry of Housing number. He did want some information about a house lot. Five times he call and de woman who answer de phone refuse to identify sheself. And every time de boss man call he identify heself.
He eventually ask she if she tek somebody money fuh house lot and she hiding.
He call another number and it tek bout five minutes trying to convince de man who answer de phone that he should identify heself. De man eventually seh that he is Khan. He mek de boss man feel that he is Kan man.
Nuff time when people call a government office people don’t identify youself. People does lef message fuh de supervisor of dem boss and many times de boss does see that dem never get de message. When dem ask who you talk to you can’t give a name because de people didn’t give you none.
Dem boys see that it ain’t got nutten that does get you vex. Dem wukking fuh de people and de people have a right to know that when dem pick up de phone, who dem talking to.
All public servants should be proud to identify demself. When people don’t want to identify demself, is two thing. Is either dem got something to hide or people gun know that dem probably forge dem certificate and should not have been there is de first place.
This attitude got to change. This come from Jagdeo time and now it get chronic.
Dem boys want know what Chanderpaul got to seh bout this. He looking fuh fame and he want a diplomatic passport. He seh how some cricketer got.
Dem boys seh he can print he own wan.
He come in at de airport de other day and he vex because an immigration officer don’t know him. De officer did ask him if he is a Guyanese and he get upset.
Another immigration officer see wha he vex about? When he talk people believe he is a Trini. And another one seh when you come in wid American passport if de immigration officer ain’t got a right to ask you if you is Guyanese.
Dem boys see Chanderpaul suffering from de ‘Do you know who I am syndrome?’
Talk half and hope Soulja Bai give he a special passport.
