All Parties and groups should consider Constitutional Reform before Elections
Dear Editor,
A) Constitutional Reform: This impasse on election due to the NCV, is probably a blessing for the Guyanese people. It is time for the Constitution to be reformed now, before the elections, which can take a maximum of a month, if well coordinated, because we know the required changes/revisions. The following interim recommended procedures to be considered:
1)We need three groups: a) PPP/C b)Coalition c) All other parties, groups and individuals combined
2)We need group C to form a management committee, to publish the changes they recommend, provide phone numbers and email address in the media so that individuals can send comments, etc.
3)The PPP/C and Coalition to publicly comment, confirm, add or delete with reasons for their disagreement with the published group C proposals. One week to do this. Since the debate is public parliament time will be a day.
4)Once all agree, the legal framers have one week, and to review by stakeholders one week. And set Parliament for one day to have a two-thirds majority.
5) Rigging of elections must automatically be tried in an international court with jail sentences.
We need all names who disagreed, to be published with the associated Party and call on the voters not to vote for the parties who do not want change. The public must be advised on the importance of the changes, show that for almost 60 years all the governments failed them.
B) Oil Contract: To be renegotiated or proven null and void, because it does not meet minimum standards of a good faith, good intention contract. I am a specialist contract manager and in the interim, I believe this contract is null and void. The present senior management staff on oil, credentials must be reviewed, hire or fire.
C) Seek balance in Procurement Commission and Tender Board, etc.
This must be a legal and binding document, that after elections, those items that cannot be in the constitution, must be implemented.
Yours sincerely
Joe Persaud
