trust is a prerequisite to greater collaboration between the parties. If a meeting to discuss a framework for enhance or improved collaboration,can't be convened how can we jump to shared governance?

the PNC never won any election in Guyana,Burnham’s lust for power caused him to form collision with the minority UF leaving the majority PPP then get rid of the UF and kept himself in power by rigging the elections and becoming a dictator destroying Guyana causing Guyanese including me to flee our once beautiful and prosperous country, although the PNC tried their best during their 28yrs of misrule to destroy the PPP they did not they should be ashamed to ask to share power

the real problem is not the governance system, but rather the attitude and action of the main Opposition - non-cooperation, open support for street protests and other forms of disruption and total disrespect for the National Assembly by its policy of `selective participation.

The republican party is populated by rich white men. Unless you think businessmen are naturally criminals, you would be within the realm of truthfulness. A political party such as the PPP has the luxury to say it can win since it spends all its time calling the other side criminals. The tactic is to scare it's already insecure Indian majority to the lemming-like ritual of casting their vote along the usual racial lines. It behooves both the PPP and the PNC to use similar tactics. One speaks in militant tone, a few of its die hard supporters take to the streets, create mayhem, and others of a gutter sort goes out and murder some innocent Indians. The PPP cannot control its security forces so it goes out and hires drug kingpins and their rat packs and we have the streets as their personal killing fields. Then scums like you come here and recycle the same shit. It is a beginning to reconciliation that the PNC asks for power sharing. I do not agree with it since it would be accommodating the same useless elites. Each side can make itself useless by looking to the best in each camp and attempt to change the culture of reciprocal violence between Indians and Africans in Guyana that robs the rest of us from a good life. by attempting a merit base ( direct constituencies etc) system with checks and balance. But you and the PPP do not want that. How could a bunch of corrupt, incompetent crooks be persuaded to actually be thinking creative beings when they already have free and easy access to the coffers of the state and a pampered gluttonous life! You folks are asking for a real blood bath in Guyana before you make up your minds that you lives are worth more than your crooked practices. You are the thieves of lives of two generations of our people. I think if we are looking for criminals and crooks we do not have to look far. |

Racist idiot I post when I get the time to, if i don't have time then i don't do it. that other site your are referring to is of no consequence, and i do not and have never posted on that site. You do not want to address the fact that the PNC has never won and will never win an elections. For the PPP we have had four election victories since the restoration of democracy, yet Guyana continues to face the slings and arrows of outrageous political commentaries; where their lyrics express fury that the PPP/C Party remains in Government. |

You should be ashamed to call another a racist when that is your sanctified creed. Also, you are right that the PNC cannot win an election. They cannot win as long as the system is race based and you can press the race button on a whim. It would be a wonderful if you suddenly develop a conscience and say lets do it the fair way; lets empower local communities and the people in general by giving them the right to select who should govern them by direct constituencies. The PPP love the system we have since they can select whatever idiot they want from a closed list; nominate whom ever they wish as the president and on the basis of a simple race based majority co opt all power. I suggest you read up on the definition of democracy. It is not simply about majority rule. It is a preservation of the status of the individual freedom to chose first and foremost. It is the selection of the government by the people and not by a cabal of 15 oligarchs in the PPP party. |

I don't mind reading but again whose definition am i reading, obviously again democracy is a term of convenience for some to oppress others and invade their lands. I see the whole concept of democracy being made a demockery when it comes to the Western Nations treatment of Haiti. Haiti Represents the best and worst of mankind. |

The PNC can make their party a truly national one by appointing more Indians and Amerindians to their Governing body.

The idea about democracy is not relativistic. That is the conclusion of a moron. Western democracies are constrained by specific precepts. Neither the PPP or the strings of idiots the send to defend their case here, get to define it. That definition has been distilled out of the ethos of our socio-political experience in the west with best strategies for managing our political lives and the consensus is that free peoples embrace specific ideals that they term democrat. I do not need to get into what that is since this is not political science 101. It is plainly stupid for you to deviate from an academic discussion about the realities of our country with stories of whom you think is oppressing whom. Ignorant man, lets address the realities of our own political reality as it affects us and not hope to rationalist its insufficiencies on grounds that people have it bad elsewhere in this or that country. I have not looked to see what is your education background but that should not stop you as a man to be curious and investigate before you write the same drivel on a daily basis. |

The wisdom of a communist. These people do not have to be connected to a constituency to be meaningful. The face value of appointing them is all that is necessary for them to be a truly national party! From what dark recesses of human ignorance are you PPPites fielded and let loose on the world? |

make sense dummy. I advocated nothing in that sentence. It was sarcasm directed at the pondlike shallowness of your thinking. Simply having front persons occupying seats at your party's table does not mean the party will be representative of the diversity in the nation. It would only represent convenient soup slurping. |

Soup slurping is what you crave for. You are still a hypocrite. On the contrary, everybody is represented in the PPP. The fact that you do not see it as it is, says that you have a problem not me.. You can only refer to your self as being shallow and sarcastic. |

I never needed to slurp soup. Our pantry was filled when those PPP scalawags were still at gimpex university ( is it not there where most learnt their shop tending skills?) As it is, it is a dictatorship with PPPites contend to sit on their calcified behinds and slurp soup rather than get off their asses and think creatively so the rest of the people could go about making soup for themselves. |

YOu see this is why the PPP will NEVER win the black and mixed vote. Let one of us tell you all how racially insensitive you...you call us racist. Let us tell you how corrupt, incompetent and packed with nepotism the PPP is, as bad as the PNC, you try to paint us as PNC. Any one who observes my posts will know that I am as hostile to the PNC as I am to the PPP. Its an old and tired tactic of the PPP to paint all who oppose them as PNC. So reminiscent of Forbes Burnham and his accusation of who were disgusted of him as being "anti-govt" and "WPA". |

True.......and the PPP can look less like practioners of Indocracy if they appoint those Africans who they have had "acting" for years and stop thinking that every head of govt entity must be Indian unless none are available. Then you get a black person but then have then acting for infinity. |

Is Benn also acting or Dr. Luncheon, wouldn't you agree that for example Dr. Luncheon is more powerful that all those Indians who head Government agencies including Ministers, as admitted by you, only Jagdeo is more powerful than him, but that's not enough is it? |

You are so naive. You do not think that blacks should be a part of the PPP or work for the Governmnet, yet you accuse the government of marginalization and discrimation. You want all the top positions for blacks but not Indians. You do not see anything wrong with the PNC being a black party and that they should form the governmnet with only 34% of the votes. NB: The AFC is not a black party. |

Still stuck at two names? I mean if this is all you can muster then you really make my point do you. The PPP is fundamentally and indian party run by Indians for the benefit of SOME indians. Think of this. The USA with its legacy of racism can elect a black man as President. The PPP cant elect a black man to lead it. I wonder why you will think that ONE powerful black man in a country where blacks are 30-40% is enough. based on how blacks vote apparently they think likewise and 90% of them boycott the PPP and have since 1957. Apparently based on this record we can say with confidence that blacks view Luncheon is self serving and certainly not one who they can feel confident will represent your interests. I challenge you to priove that the PPP in 2006 got more than 10% of the black vote. |

Despite the US having a "Black President" a puppet of the whites, they still present the most graphic case of racism ever witnessed among mankind. The KKK being present is testimony to this. They have the most perverse forms of racism that one can experience anywhere. Just ask the Asians and those from the middle east. |

The PPP has 48% non blacks in the governing body and parliament. last election, they had a total of 16.8% of the total votes cast. We don't have to prove anything to your, but according to your contention Blacks have once again voted race. Good showing Caribj. You are a genius. You need to take a course in Math. 54.8% is greater than 34%.. The PNC lost. The AFC is not a Black Party. Ramjattan at the time of the election was an Indian. When did he became black? Some people want the Government to change the voting system to suit the opposition. How naive can they be.. |

Put it this way bwerbician tens of thousands of AfroGuyanese prefer living under Obama and what ever racism they encounter in the USA than under Jagdeo and anti blacks attitudes from the IndoKKK, other words known as the PPP. And tens of thousands of blacks in Guyana would really love it if they can join their relatives in the USA. I would love you to speak to the likes of Boehner, Rush Limbaugh and others as to how whites control Obama....just because he chased Jagdeo away in Trinidad at the Conference of teh Americas when he went begging him for money?All you have to do is establish a DEA office in G/twn and maybe Obama will listen to Jagdeo when he begs for $$$. Jagdeo being such a mendicant thats all he knows how to do....what a shameless pan handler. |

You boasted how Ramjattan got no votes and we know for a fact that teh AFc's votes came from New Amsterdam G/twn and Linden. Figure out for yourself where their votes are from. The PPP=IndoKKK and your hostile attitude to blacks isnt your fault. You are that like because you love the PPP. My maths tells me tyaht if blacks and mixed are 45% of the vote the PNC/AFC got 43% and virtually no Indian or Amerindian votes that means that 90%+ of the blacsk and mixed voted eityher PNC or AFC. Now tell me how the PNC and AFC got their votes when you know that ramjattan delivered few votes from berbice. |

This is totally far from the truth, in fact even in Linden Jagdeo has been well received by those living there. Why don't they then leave Guyana to join their relatives overseas if Guyana is in such a myriad of racism and marginalization as you claim. Why don't they abandon the Public service where they account for the majority? But the pictures below tell a different story. These folks look pretty happy with the President around them carib J |

Yes! they think creatively. But the other half of the population which you so righteously defended do not go out and make soup for themselves. Instead they sit at home waiting for the government to hand them a bowl of soup. |

AFC got almost no votes in the WCD or on the Corentyne and you know that so why lie. ANy way why will Indians vote for a man who you all say encouraged PNC violence? Trotman was and is the leader of the AFC. Gaumattie was dumped because she brought in few votes. |

The US is a democracy dummy. It does not prevent people from having wrong headed opinion. It simply asks that those opinions do not infringe on the rights of others to express themselves as well. Asians come here in as many numbers as are allowed and so does people from the ME. I suggest you learn to respect Amerinds before you yap about racism. |

You do not know when to stop. It takes so little to bring out your racism. I do not know that anyone feeds anyone in Guyana. No one gets a handout from anyone except their family abroad. The majority of Indo Guyanese are in the same deep doo doo as AFro Guyanese. Get it into your head, we manufacture nothing, hardly earn enough to meed half of our needs, our main industries are in the tank and we are foraging at the bottom of the economic crab barrel as Haiti. The only success we are having are the imagined ones. |

I do not even know what the hell you are talking about. If you mean that I questioned you opinion that the Jagan's are responsible for the plight of Indians, then I still think that is nonsense. Also, I told you to check your own house when you decided to call me names so deal with it. I am entitled to think you have wrongheaded opinion as often as I believe that to be the case. You just have to demonstrate otherwise if you so choose to engage me. I don't give a damn about gods or angels; the supernatural is all fiction to me. My opinions are my own and not engendered of any god complex. My right to hold them are no less my right than yours to have yours. |

ANd yet when the elections comes the PPP loses Linden big time. Are you suggesting that the results of the election are inaccurate? Elections prove whether one is unpopular or not and clearly the PPP has few friends in Linden. maybe teh two families shown smiling are the only friends he has. I dont see legions of people running him down. BTW thousands of AfroGuyanese have left Guyana. Dont you know this? Question though. More Indians lived in Guyana under PNC rule than now live with the PPP in power. Can we thuis assume that Indos loved the PNC and hate the PPP, notwithstanding what every election shows? Shows how twisted your logic is......I hope that this isnt proof that you think the PPP enjoys broad support....you know the same people might say (and NACTA polls indiacte that they do say) that Jagdeo is a nice man but the other PPP hate black people. Try harder but you show your failure to prove me wrong every day. I really feel sorry for you. |

The hatred fanned by the PNC/AFC have poisoned the people's minds. If Jagdeo would run for a 3rd term you would see massive support from Blacks because of the prosperity they have enjoyed under his leadership. Because the new leader of the PPP is unknown, the elections will be uncertain and the opposition has an opportunity to pick up more votes. Now with respect to people leaving Guyana, those were different circumstances. Before there was no place to run that was any better than Guyana. Now Guyanese have much more opportunities especially with many relatives overseas sponsoring and the explosion of the tourist industry in the Caribbean. I was in the British Virgin Islands and I met Guyanese tour guides. Our people are all over the world but they make sure to send back money home. This is what pains you, Guyana's greatest resource is its people. |

I work with Amerindians so i can tell you about them, so quit spewing your dumb imperialistic, ass-kissing garbage on this forum. You are a disgrace to the Amerindians in this country having sold your soul to those who butchered them. In the US Where is the democracy to inform people of happenings about to take place, like a war? How come the Freedom of Information law that you people so proudly spout, did not enable the American people to know the truth about the US War on Iraq? How was Bush allowed to Lie to his people about the War. Why wasn't the fact that Bush destroyed the economy of Haiti or that he was very much involved in the attempted coup against Chavez? |

Drugb the PNC lost a massive number of votes in Linden. In fact drugb if the folks who voted in 2001, but refused to do so in 2006 voted instead for the PPP then the PPP would have won in Linden. Drugb the AFC was but a few months old in 2006 and the PNC seen as a failure.....I guess you didnt know that they were removed from running the Linden town council with an interim body replacing them. Why would there be no mention of this if Lindeners were so wedded to the PNC that they allowed themselves to be brainwashed by them? Ought Lindeners not gone out in the streets to protest the removal of the PNC dominated town council? As to 2011. Well we were told by the PPP, by no less than Jagdeo, that the would have beaten the PNC in Linden. The PPP had a huge concert in Linden with all their black soup lickers on display......funny thing, fewer people voted PPP than showed up to that event!!!!!! What are Guyanese doing in the BVI? Funny guy....doesnt this show the lack of opportunities in Guyana. The BVI is a hopelessly expensive place, the BVI folks noted for hating foreigners, most especially IndoGuyanese. I have heard tales about how BVI people behave every time a LIAT flight every there and they want to protect their little rock from contamination from Jamaicans, Guyanese, Dominicans, Santo Domingans and others who tyhey see as scum. Its not as if that would be a place to live if Guyana offered opportunities. I guess you also didnt notice that not all the tour guides were Guyanese and that with full employment on Tortola clearly Tortolans are a hard working and competent people. It does indeed pain me that every little jackass from a volcanic peak or a piece of coral loves to boast how Guyanese has all these resources yet Guyanese have to flee all over the caribbean as cheap labor just like haitians. They claim that Guyanese must indeed be a very stupid people if blessed with more resources then the rest of the Caribbean combined the best that they can do is to crowd tehse small islands behaving like Haitians. You know drugb one can forgive Mexicans for enduring indignities to come to and ,ive in the USA. When Guyanese under go the same to live in Barbados, St Maarten or Tortola or Anguilla or Nevis.....well drugb clearly you have no shame. Villages in Guyana living off Tortola $$$$. Are you proud that thousands of Guyanese live off money made in little islands like Tortola, Anguilla, Saba, St Kitts, Nevis, Montserrat, etc? Dont you think that it should be Guyana offering opportunities to folks from place swhich have next to nothing? And in fact did flee to Guyana as recently as the early 70s. |

Minds and hearts are not won overnight, the PPP have proven its dedication to be a government for all the people. The hostility that formerly greeted Jagdeo is long gone now and replaced by admiration by the Afro citizen as evidenced by the many photos we see in the papers. This will eventually translate into votes. Guyana may have resources but that does not translate into wealth as the resources first has to be exploited and the cost of exploitation has to translate into favorable market value. This has not been the case for Guyana, farming proved to be unprofitable for many as their only market was local because of protectionism in the rest of the Caribbean. So next time these fools tell you about resource, invite them to go to Guyana and dig up the resources just like the Brazilians do in the gold industry. |

So Nevis has more resources than Guyana?????!!!! All 36 square miles of it!!!!! I guess you just taught Nevisians something that they didnt know. They hear about all this gold that Guyana and how its the country's largest export but that Jagdeo wants to shut down the industry to focus on begging.......and sugar. You know the fact that Guyanese must flee there puts a real lie to the notion that the PPP will be popular. Why? In any case 17 years is enough for hearts and minds to be won, especially when one considers that alarge part of the elctorate have no real recollection for the pre 1992. If the PPP hasnt clsoed the deal yet it will not. Now run along to Linden where unemployment is now 50% and tell them why the PPP has been good for them. Especially since the deal with Norway reduces their options in timber. Which is the main alternate to bauxite. LIAT is expanding their operations in guyana because teh market for Guyanese migrants to coral reefs and volcanic peaks is lucrative. Before 1992 how many flights to Guyana did LIAt have? Did Guyanese even know anything about LIAT? But Guyanese fleeing to volcanic peaks and coral reefs in search of "gold" has created an opportunity for them. Imagine there was a time that the migration was the oether way aroudn about 35-40 years ago! |

Nevis resource does not have to be developed as it is nature itself which the foreigners adore, the blue water and beautiful beaches. I already showed you the pictures and you claimed it was photoshopped. What a dunce. Timber, Bauxite and Gold have been around since before Burnham and yet these industries have not been profitable to the extent of tourism in countries like Barbados. Raw resources do not necessarily translate into prosperity for a nation. It is the value added products from which the bulk of the wealth is derived. But since you know so much, why don't you go down to Guyana and develop these industries instead of complaining why the government is not developing them. As I told you time and time again, government's job is to govern, not to meddle in private enterprise. It is up to the brilliant minds like yourself to execute these plans and ideas that you keep throwing around. You wring your hands in despair that the country is not living up to its potential while you neglect your civic duty to help develop the nation. Meanwhile when others attempt to do so you criticize them saying that they are incompetent and all sorts of insults. |

I already showed you the pictures and you claimed it was photoshopped. What a dunce. [/QUOTE] Just ask any Antiguan friend about teh beacjhes in St Kitts, show them those pictures and watch them laugh at you. StK and Nevis are VOLCANIC islands which means that the sand is black, talcum powder brown, golden brown or grey. Not that photo shop white. Also do you know how many islands have blue seas and beaches. Do you know how may have NONSTOP jet service which Nevis by the way doesnt have. So why Nevis when one can get to the Bahamas, Jamaica, DR, PR or St Maarten in 3-4 hours and they have all the blue sea and beaches. No drugb islands have to market themselves. With gold at the prices that they are all Guayense have to do is what they have been doing for 200 years and that is go in the bush find it and sell it. Now whats so hard about that? Sugar prices are high....but then Guyana doesnt have enough cane to capitalize on this. Nevis. Competition from islands with larger tourism promotion budgets, better airlift, better known to Americans, more hotel brands to push their salesforces into travel agencies. Damn that looks harder to me than what Guyana has to do. Since when you need 10 lane highways to go get gold???!!! Drugb the PPP doesnt listen to black people other than milk drinkers and soup lickers so I suggest that you go and advise them. After all PPP slogan is "ahbe pan tap....."coolie" time now.....dont split the votes otherwise black man gun rule again". They dont want me. Its you they want. |

What are others (Jagdeo) doing other than going to Iran to beg for money....they told him bash the USA in Tehran and then we will give you $1.5M for being used like an idiot. If you want to praise him for that feel free. As we can see berbician and other PPP idiots scroll the GNI daily so if the PPP really wanted our ideas they are there for them to see. But they want docile negroes who they can push around with a bowl of milk. My name isnt Robert Corbin so I cant sign up for that. |

Again, Guyana does not have the beaches and blue water that has mass appeal to the foreign tourists with loaded pockets. But since you think differently then I suggest that you go to Guyana and implement these grand plans and market Guyana and exploit its resources profitably. And while you are at it go give a good piece of your tongue to Yesu Persaud, Daiguar, Peter Ramsaroop and all those with deep pockets who failed to develop the country. Because I certainly hope that you don't expect the function of enterprise to be a function of government. |

100 countries in teh world have white sand and blue water. Given the competition how does eacvh counry guarantee they get a p;iece of the pie......not by doing nothing and thinking oh we have beaches so they will come. Other wise haiti would have attracted 1,000,000 tourists every year because their beaches are nicer then those in Nevis and definitely StK and StL if white sand is what people want. yesu Persaud has spoken lengthily about why GY isnt developing and on one accassion jagdeo screamed at him. Ramsarop has been even more vocal. |

Yesu wanted more concessions for small scale producers. He may have a point but this will not lure the large investors that Guyana needs to make a dent in the economy. The Nevians are living worse than many Guyanese, don't let them fool you. |

Are they. So why are Guyanese going to Nevis to do the lowest paying jobs in an island that 2 years ago had an unemployment rate of 2%? Clearly they go because life is better and that better life is worse than most Nevisians. BTW a Bajan told me that the island is crawling with IndoGuyanese and those who work in restaurants are in the cook shop variety, not the better paying restaurants patronise dby affluent Bajans and tourists. Why are Indians leaving Guyana to go work in Bajan cookshops serving flying fish in a tray and beer to people eating at the counter? |

In fact Guyanese in Nevis are doing exceptionally well as they come with skills that the natives do not possess. Its pretty much the same in the US where many of us immigrants live better than those native born in the projects and trailer park. As for Guyanese Indians working in Bajan cookshops, another lie, the Guyanese Indians have their own roti and curry shop and even own many of the Bajan cookshops. Don't let your racist mind misguide you into believing that they just work there. The owner is cook, waiter and bus boy all in one. That is the type of dedication that it takes to run a successful business. |

First, You called Sam Hinds and Roger Luncheon stooges. Now you are accusing the PNC of selling out. It's obvious that you want Guyana to be partitioned and so on daily rantings you spread the doctrine of hate and called people racists who disagree with you. |

Have they? Then why do they report being badly treated by employers and facing discrimination and seeing themselves (and are seen as) among the poorest people in Nevis? http://www.caribbeannetnews.co...es/000039/003916.htm If you bother to scroll through a poverty survey available on www.caribank.com comments by Guyanese and about Guyanese are made. One can say with safety that AfroGuyanese arent complaining of racism towards them in an island wheer almost every body is black. Xenophobia maybe, racism no. Fool yourself that they own Bajan cookshops. The owner is a black Bajan and he wants cheap labor. IndoGuyanese provide it. |

Nice try, but nowhere in the article does it mention that Guyanese are doing demeaning work in Nevis. In fact Guyanese are so progressive there that they incur the wrath of the locals who are enraged that these foreigners can come to their shores and out work and out prosper them. |

Drugb think. Do you think taht people who have badly needed skills have a problem of employers forcing them to pay for their own work permits, being unscrupulous to them and reporting them to the authorities. Hardly likely because such a person will easily find another employer so would be treated like gold. Clearly these are vulnerable people who can easily be exploited and abused as a result. They are disliked because their vulnerability to abuse forces down wages for unskilled locals....in other words the same reasons why Haitians are despised in the Dom Rep and Mexicans in the USA. Neither can be accused of having any impact other than making the poorest locals feel pressured. Ditto in Nevis. Drugb if Caribbean nationals coming for good jobs is what angered Nevisians then you would see Trinidadian, not Guyanese because its they who tend to occupy upper tier slots in banking and other areas. If Guyanese were prosperous then why would they not be able to defend themselves by hiring lawyers to protect themselves? http://www.caribank.org/titanw...vis+Final+Report.pdf Look at page 54 of the report which might appear as 67 on your computer where Guyanese report discrimination, abuse and difficulties in finding work. Note that when this report was written unemployment was 2% and there were numerous Dominicanos on the island so why woudl work be hard to find and why are Guyanese singled out vs Dominicanos? |

Guyana has something that is referred to as eco tourism, our largely untouched pristine rain forest provide this naturally. We have some of the rarest specie of animals and plants on the planet. However this concept was not promoted during the PNC's time in Government because they didn't possess the vision to create such a market and carve out a niche for itself in the Caribbean.
The lack of vision on the part of the PNC is even more pronounced since they now want to go coalition shopping having realized that their ideas have expired. However the Guyanese public knows fully well that the PPP Govt, is one with a vision for development today and tomorrow. |

Berbician the PPP has had 17 years to promote Guyana and yet nothing has happened. The eco resorts are in dire financial shape and a few have even closed or plan to close. Your "tourism" consists of overseas Guyanese almost all of whom have no desire to go in the "bush" but prefer to stay in G/twn, Linden and in their coastal villages drinking with their friends or gossiping with their relatives. Having brought home numerous suitcasesof goodies and full wallets for all pining for the "US dollars". |

How? The Indians have been told that the PNC only wants to kill them so if they see teh PPP being their friends they will assume that the PPP now plans to do the same, or maybe confirming their fears that the PPP doesnt care when the PNC "kills" them. And the others will feel validated that Corbin is a traitor who has sold out his supporters to the Indians for a small bowl of soup. |
