Dear Editor,
With the concerns expressed by world leaders in Switzerland, I listened to earlier today, in addition to the contortions around the Nobel peace prize and the dismantling of international agencies intended to make our world a nicer place, I hope we are not drifting to a world that may fulfil the prophecies in the book of Revelation which we express as the coming of Armageddon, where evil and good collide, destroying all and sundry.
In Guyana we are witnessing a movement, which is moving away from the ideals of our founding fathers. Ideals of justice, morality, and the respect for the underlining principles of our constitution, and the rule of law. We see the obvious manipulation of the judiciary, the disregard for the legislature, no consideration for a free and independent media, earlier described as the fourth estate, and of course the truth.
History has a puckish way of repeating itself, as I think of our beloved Guyana, I remember the challenges and triumphs of Hercules who using brain and brawn cleaned the Augean stables in a single day using two rivers.
As I view Guyana with its corruption, cronyism and coverups, to be like the accumulated mess of the Augean stables which had not been cleaned for thirty years. I question myself is there a Hercules that can clean the dirt, and corruption that has accumulated over time. Is that Hercules in the womb, in the cradle, or at some institution preparing to take on the massive and noble task of cleaning up Guyana. As an optimist I hope and pray that we produce a Hercules to clean up the dirt and damage extant in our Republic.
Regards,
Elder Hamilton Green

(Kaieteur News) – The President is correct. Universal cash grants are not sustainable. They are also not fair. When a billionaire and a pauper receive the same sum of money, something is clearly wrong with the policy. The last cash grant is believed to have cost the treasury more than G$60...Jan 18, 2026
By Sir Ronald Sanders (Kaieteur News) – When powerful states act, small states are tempted to personalize the action. When small states fragment, powerful states do not need to explain themselves.

(Kaieteur News) – What tidings does Dr. Ashni Singh bring this year? Will it be another year of lament and discontent? Or, one that makes ordinary Guyanese know what it is to feel like an oil enriched citizen?
