A demand for relief during COVID-19 challenge

Apr 03, 2020 Letters

DEAR EDITOR,

We the People of Guyana have started an online demand for relief during this COVID-19 challenge. We would be very grateful if you can kindly publish this demand so that those who call themselves “Government” can arise from their slumber:
1) Removal of VAT on all essential and all food items for 90 days
2) 60-days relief from electricity bills
3) 60-days relief from all telephone and internet bills
4) 60 days relief from all GWI bills
5) Immediate reduction of Fuel prices
6) Waive of Rent, Mortgages, Loan Interest
7) Every “Minister” and senior functionary who receive a salary to be reduced to the minimum wage and the differential to be used to give financial relief to others.

The relief of financial burdens of the utility bills will encourage more stay-home discipline as well and allow us to utilize our scarce resources towards food and essentials.
Many thanks for your amplification of these demands.

Dr. Yog Mahadeo
