The PPP/C is to be commended for the work done in Region 5

Dec 29, 2020 Letters

Dear Editor,

It has not been ideal. It has not been a utopia or the human fantasy of complete and total harmony. However, the aggregation of all things so far, I commend the PPP/C Government for their administration and aggressive developmental approach in Region 5 (Mahaica-Berbice). The Dantzig breach was caused by a show of incompetence, then an incompetence competition followed causing the breach to not be sealed for months until the PPP/C was able to remedy the situation. In terms of Regional Administation, the former REO of this great region operated as if he was a king as we were all serfs ; from model farms, bus sheds in selective villages, street lights in selective villages and that one special contractor friend that everyone knows, it has been good riddance. The current REO has done a phenomenal job in rebalancing this region and aligning it with the rest of the country in terms of progressive policies and solid administration. Even the RDC Council meetings are being taken to their statutory conclusion and so far the Regional Chairman, the Vice Chairman and Councillors have been able to execute their mandate. The MMA-ADA is the country’s largest rice producing scheme which has been completely devastated by the policies of the last administration. This in itself is an understatement of monumental proportions. The PPP/C Government, Ministry of Agriculture, has been extremely aggressive in executing the critical drainage and irrigation, access and maintenance works in this scheme. Rice is no longer private business but a national priority.

Yours truly,
Ryan Chitranjan Jaikissoon
