The choice before us

Jul 25, 2020 Letters

DEAR EDITOR,

The latest developments between the USA and China to many echo the beginning of a cold war if not a warm one. With it comes a clear but difficult choice to be made on our continent’s coast. Being wed to China and historically close to Communism if not Socialism does present a danger that should be avoided. It is clear that how Venezuela goes so does the risk to Guyana. The choice before us is one that a bipartisan Parliamentary Committee should take, however the current dynamics in the political atmosphere does present some barriers. It is imperative that those barriers are overcome quickly to avoid a long walk in the wilderness for the loser of this key diplomatic decision that lies ahead.
Economics suggests that our future remains pegged to the USA. However, the influence of China and its Allies continues to grow. Oh beautiful Japan, what joy it would be to be in your disciplined embrace. The security of a firm and cooperative alliance with the UK, USA, Japan and France is historically nurturing and the Swiss continue to walk that fine line as an example for many to follow. Europe is where we have historically stood and Canada has also been a strong partner. The choice before us should be clear.

Best regards,
Mr. Jamil Changlee
Chairman
The Cooperative Republicans of Guyana
