Budget 2022 will be transformational

Jan 26, 2022 Letters

Dear Editor,

Kaieteur News – The PPP/C is lauded as a miracle-worker of transformative growth and developmental trajectories in the nation; especially after ensuing socio-economic and infrastructural devastation by the PNC tsunami and its satellites in its coalition partners and supporting NGOs and media enclaves.
Senior Minister in the Office of the President with responsibility for finance, Dr. Ashni Singh has asserted that 2022’s national fiscal plan is “historic” and “transformational.”
PPP/C Manifestos have always outlined plans, policies and programmes that target growth and developmental paradigms projected to enhance and enrich the lives of Guyanese, individually, and the nation at large. Minister Singh, who was part of the then President Jagdeo’s visionary team that created a synergy of escalating social development and economic growth, which led to Guyana being ranked as a middle-income economy, is once again the financial whizz who has been tasked with the responsibility of charting the nation’s economic journey into upward mobility. Budget 2022 is promising to be one of superlative plans and programmes intended to catalyse – at individual, community and national levels, a paradisiacal landscape in existential dynamics.
Minister Singh iterated, in an NCN interview, that the Government intends to accelerate, with relentless dynamism, the People’s Progressive Party/Civic (PPP/C) Government’s transformational agenda. This year’s Budget promises much, and one can foresee that, within the five-year timespan of the Irfaan Ali-led Government, incremental ingenious and innovative projects and programmes that will eventually streamline this nation into a first-world status; despite the naysayers, gloom and doom prognosticators, hate-mongers and race-baiters; not to mention the arsonists, anarchists, et al, poverty and deprivation would no longer be part of the lexicon describing Guyana.
The negative synergies, hate-fests, unpatriotic, destructive, obstructive actions and rhetoric of the current coalition cabal, in all the PNC political constructs, have caused severe hardships on Guyanese, such as their forcing economic sanctions on this country that ensued in severe hardship on ordinary Guyanese to undertake simple banking transactions because of their recalcitrant, anti-national positions on the AML/AFT Bill, the Amaila Falls hydro-project, among a multiplicity of others.
Their negative, obstructionist actions to Guyanese enrichment/empowerment facilitators was again on full display – in the hallowed sanctorum of the National Assembly, no less, on December 29th last, as they attempted to impede the passing of the NRF Bill. In the area of health, for instance, the projections for an organ transplant initiative was highlighted in an edition of Parliamentary Agenda with Minister of Parliamentary Affairs and Governance, Gail Teixeira, where she elucidated that many lives could be saved through the introduction of this ground-breaking, hope-engendering scheme. As she explained, this will take Guyana into an entirely new arena of medicine. The enactment of the Organ Donor Bill will open avenues for research into tissue transplant to enable saving lives through affordable, life-saving organ transplant operations. Currently, many lives could have been saved if Guyana had the culture of organ donation/transplant, and government plans to develop many modern hospitals throughout the country to arrest the preventable loss of lives; as well as to create an organ donor register for those willing to donate their organs to anyone whose lifespan, or reduction in the quality of their lives is threatened by the dysfunction of an organ, or organs.
Modernisation of Guyana has always been a focus of successive PPP/C Budgets, as outlined in all its Manifestos. How far would we have come if not for the destructive and obstructive PNC and its various satellites? The enactment of the local content legislation was an enabler to creating opportunities for both Guyanese businesses and individuals, of creating opportunities for Guyanese businesses and citizens to be prioritised in provisioning the oil and gas companies with goods and services.
The myopic trouble-makers in the land would not prevail, and Budget 2022 will fulfill PPP/C Manifesto promises and beyond of a life free from poverty, want, and crime, unlike the PNC in all its constructs, which always promises “a good life”, but always deliver instead a life devoid of hope.

Yours Truly,
Anson Paul
