Dear Editor,
These are very hard and troubling times. I humbly request that you permit me to publish some concerns, which have succeeded in confusing many Guyanese.
1. Is it customary that most international people seek to interview the Vice President, and not the President of a country?
2. Can anyone state any contributions Dr. Walter Rodney and the WPA made to better the Guyanese people, and their way of life?
3. Did the people who are now demanding shared governance because of the PPP one seat majority, raised the same demands when the Coalition were in power and had the same one seat majority ?
4. Can we expect that the same people who are invoking the USAID’s report, will do the same when the USAID makes different conclusions in the future with the expected change in U.S administration?
5. Should someone who enabled, assisted and worked for the most racist and anti-black Mayor in America’s history, be allowed to call others racist every night?
6. Is it not true that there are more blacks in this PPP administration than ever served in any of President Burnham’s PNC administrations?
7. Is the PPP government making the same strategic, philosophical and government mistakes that were made 60 years ago, causing external forces to keep them out of power?
8. Should people who safely live overseas be the ones to criticise Guyanese, for not going out to protest and risk their lives?
9. Is an MP who every night calls the opposition “dutty, wicked, stink, jagabats and trench crapos,” be the one to criticise others for their own language?
10. Isn’t it racist for a black person to call a fellow black a house slave, simply because he chose to work and provide for his family?
Respectively submitted,
Chitrakha Persaud
