The Cabinet outreach in Region 2 was a resounding success

DEAR EDITOR,

The recent Ministerial or Cabinet outreach in Region 2 at Damon Square can be deemed a resounding success so far, and I say so far because there are some issues that were addressed almost immediately, but of course others would take some time.
The crowd more than what most of us expected, was very orderly, and the system of having one’s concerns aired was well thought out, for which the organizers particularly the Regional Executive Officer (R.E.O.) Mr. Dennis Jaikaran, must be commended.
It was good to see our Prime Minister, the honourable Mr. Moses Nagamootoo, assisting his staff by talking to the people and making notes of their issues and concerns – the same can be said of other Ministers.
The Public Security area as expected had lots of people, and it was noticeable the presence of the top brass of the Guyana Police Force, the Commissioner of Police Mr. James, the Crime Chief and Deputy Commissioner Mr. Alves and Deputy Commissioner Ms. Graham with other Senior Superintendents and Superintendents of Police, and our Commander of ‘G’ Division Mr. Khalil Pareshram were on hand as expected and providing immediate answers and solutions in many cases.
The Ministers after that part of the visit was concluded went to various locations, where a lot of announcements were made pertaining to developments that are in the pipeline. I was taken aback when a group of persons picketed not far away from where the Ministers and Staff were engaging the public. I was wondering to know if their time would not have been more beneficially occupied if they had engaged the Subject Ministers to have discussions with a view of having their concerns addressed.
