I offer PPP supporters a political platform for their interests in 2020
Dear Editor,
Please publish my response to Ori’s letters dated Dec 21/17 (SN) and Dec 25/17 (KN). The editors of Stabroek News find it editorially judicious to continue publishing lies and propaganda, of which they are fully well aware, of a known blow-hard of the PPP, Vishnu Bisram (SN Dec 25/17).
I find it inconceivable that they fail to recognise that they are allowing their publication to be used to spread misinformation and misrepresentations of the truth, and that they are also ultimately responsible for continuing the intellectual oppression of the populace with this misinformation, which ultimately feed the suboptimal outcomes at our national elections.
Even if Bisram has made strong points, this is artfully done to perpetrate his flawed message of Jagdeo as a leader of substance.
It is impossible for rational individuals to consider Jagdeo in any leadership capacity given what has transpired under his administration. Bisram is not stupid. He, like everyone else who reads the papers is familiar with both Jagdeo and the PPP’s flaws, yet he chooses to ignore these issues, which are all widely publicised.
As a canvasser for the PPP, he continues to perpetuate the lie of the ‘glory’ of Jagdeo. I reiterate that PPP supporters have to get wise to the PPP and start another party.
Sean Ori’s letter, ‘The PPP should take back the party from Bharrat Jagdeo,’ SN Dec 21/17, demonstrates the kind of thinking which is essential to driving political, and economic change, in Guyana. Ori may not be anyone of distinguished standing in our society, but he amplifies what many Guyanese are thinking. PPP supporters should by now have deduced that the organisation and management of the PPP have been hijacked by the current cabal in charge, and it virtually impossible to dislodge them.
The primary reason for this is that the members of the PPP no more represent the interests of their supporters.
Yours faithfully,
Craig Sylvester
