Dear Editor,
Please permit me space in your auspicious newspaper to respond to Mr. Nadir’s, September 18, 2018, letter, denigrating the effort of Guyana’s Department of Energy (DOE) Head, Dr. Bynoe, for expressing his intent to seek international guidance in assisting GRA in granularly dissecting Exxon’s Cost Recovery financial statement.
This statement has been proffered to the Government of Guyana (GOG).
Though Mr. Nadir’s narrative may have contained historical and legal relevance, his lamentations about Dr. Bynoe’s inability to lead the DOE is premised on an elliptically skewed and abstruse prognosis based on a singular utterance from Dr. Bynoe. The DOE is still in its infancy- not yet fully operational.
To Mr. Nadir… Did you, by any remote chance, in your cunning calculation, think that Dr. Bynoe, was perhaps, referring ONLY to the prevailing R & D cost supposedly incurred by Exxon and not any future financials?
Context is everything. Your adulteration of contextual information, in my opinion, is truly the Nadir of your pontification, Mr. Nadir! You could have summarily offered a zenith of influential advice in this sphere since, we, all Guyanese, are in this together.
Sadly, you did not offer any substantive or elevated construction to the contrary thereby reinforcing the idea that you were operating in “tunnel vision” mode, hell bent on disparaging Dr. Bynoe’s appointment as the head of the DOE. The public is much smarter these days, Mr. Nadir, much smarter!
Jonathan Subrian.
