Economic growth, stability draw foreign participation to GuyExpo OVER 20 regional and international companies are currently partaking in GuyExpo 2014, introducing their products, exchanging ideas and negotiating new contracts and deals for further co-cooperation. Aware of the advantages that Guyana has to offer, the exhibition has therefore become the ideal commercial hub for many investors, who are hoping to enter the Guyanese market including Solaris Technologies of Trinidad and Tobago. Headquartered in Portof-Spain, this company which offers environmentally friendly, sustainable energy management solutions and products aimed at encouraging businesses and households to reduce energy consumption is currently expanding its operations. The goal is to open up shop in Guyana having already done so in Barbados, Jamaica and Miami, Manager Ted Mungal said. “ We h a v e f o u n d a n ideal location (referring to GuyExpo) whereby people from all over Guyana can come and look at our products, look at our solutions and come and chat

with us in terms of how we can help them to bring down their power consumption,” Mungal said. In addition to using the forum to promote the company’s solar solution products to the people of Guyana, the company is also providing education in terms of how persons can get started in solar power consumption, thereby saving a lot of money. But whilst the expo is providing the forum to introduce the business to the local market, Guyana’s economic growth and stability are factors drawing Solaris Technologies, Mungal said. “We are seeing a lot of activities. We see the Chinese, we see a lot of multinational corporations, we see oil exploration, and we felt it was prudent after all these years to enter the market and enter the positive thrust the country is experiencing,” he said. Similarly, the stability of the Guyanese economy is the factor that would have ensured the participation of Titan Resources Limited in GuyExpo 2014. The Tr i n i d a d i a n c o m p a n y provides petroleum and

petroleum by-products including D2 Diesel, corrode oil and kerosene. M a n a g i n g D i r e c t o r, Ernesto Singh noted that, “Guyana has one way to go and that is up and the people who get their foot in Guyana now will reap the benefit

so we are trying to get our foothold in Guyana in the early stages so when the oil comes in we will be part of the development,” Singh said. He noted that his aim is to attract the “big players” because his product is not for

the potential in terms of the Guyanese economy,” General Manager, Sean Lee explained. He further noted that “the buzz word around that in terms of the resources, things are happening over at Guyana; so we definitely

Design and Construction Services Ltd sued for 60M for breach of contract AT T O R N E Y G e n e r a l (AG) and Minister of Legal Affairs, Anil Nandlall has moved to the court against the contracting company, Design and Construction Services Ltd for breach of contract in relation to the design and installation of lighting towers at the Albion Sports Complex in Berbice. A relase from the AG’s Office said: “On the 3rd of October, 2014, the Attorney-General, Mohabir Anil Nandlall filed an action against Design and Construction Services Ltd claiming in excess of sixty million three hundred and seventy four thousand and fifty-two dollars ($ 60, 374, 052.00) for breach of contract and negligence. Design and Construction Services Ltd were contracted by the Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sport on the 28th day of February, 2011, to provide consultancy services in relation to designing and supervising all capital works, inclusive of building and construction of civil

and electrical works for the erection and operation of six (6) lighting towers supplied by MUSCO Sports Lighting Inc. at Albion Sports Complex situate at Albion, Corentyne, Berbice.

ATTORNEY General Anil Nandlall The Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sport required the works to be completed to provide floodlighting facilities at the Albion Sport Complex for the playing of cricket and hosting of other sporting events at nights.” “In the Statement of Claim, the Plaintiff

alleges that in executing the works pursuant to the said contract Design and Construction Services Ltd was guilty of negligence in the performance of the services, whereby they failed to design, specify and outline the appropriate foundation structure and electrical system for the erection of six (6) lighting towers and to prepare adequate bills of quantities thereof;” “As a result, the foundation structures and the electrical system as so designed by the Defendant contained serious and substantial defects which prevented the foundation structures and electrical system from being used for the purpose they were designed for and had to be demolished, redesigned and reconstructed at additional costs to the Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sport. The action was filed in the Commercial Division of the High Court and is set to be heard on November 12th, 2014, in the Commercial Court.”

MESSAGE OF MADAME DEOLATCHMEE RAMOTAR, FIRST LADY OF GUYANA ON THE OCCASION OF EID- UL- ADHA 2014 I EXTEND special greetings to all Guyanese, but especially to our Muslim Brothers and Sisters who are celebrating Eid- ul- Adha 2014. We are reminded of the significance of this feast by the timeless story of Ibrahim whose belief, faith and trust in Allah was so unquestioning and complete, that he was prepared to sacrifice the life of his own son in obedience to the Command of Allah. Ibrahim’s willingness to obey Allah at the price of his own son’s life has become an important benchmark of faith. His example reminds us today of two important principles that should continue to be guide to our FIRST LADY actions. The first of these is our submission to the DEOLATCHMEE RAMOTAR will of our Creator. No one is more powerful than the Supreme Being, the fountainhead of all Truth, Knowledge, Righteousness and Virtue. Our submission to the Creator is the surest path to a life of happiness and fulfillment. Secondly, Muslims throughout the world commemorate Eid-ul-Adha by making their own sacrifices and by giving generously to others especially to those in need. If we too allow our lives to be characterised by expressions of kindness and generosity, we too would reap great rewards in abundance, both materially and spiritually. May Eid-ul-Adha therefore inspire us all to live our lives in submission to the Creator and dispel the notions of selfishness and self-centeredness! Happy Eid-ul-Adha to all Guyana!

Hong Kong protests: CY Leung says order must be restored (BBC News) HONG Kong’s leader has warned that police will take “all actions necessary” to ensure government offices and schools reopen on Monday. CY Leung called on demonstrators to allow the government and citizens to “resume their normal work and life” after a week of disruption. Activists oppose China’s plans to vet candidates to replace Mr Leung in 2017 and are demanding fully free elections. Tens of thousands remained on the streets on Saturday night. Mr Leung’s televised comments came after street fights led to the postponement of talks between the government and the protesters. Thousands are attending an anti-violence demonstration in the Admiralty district, and the BBC’s Babita Sharma in Hong Kong, says the protest is one of the largest yet. However, there were sporadic clashes throughout the day in Mong Kok, an area that saw some of the worst violence on Friday night.

Former Haiti president Duvalier dies (BBC News) HAITI’S former ruler Jean-Claude “Baby Doc” Duvalier has died of a heart attack in the capital Port-au-Prince aged 63, official sources say. Duvalier was just 19 when in 1971 he inherited the title of “president-for-life” from his father, the notorious Francois “Papa Doc” Duvalier. He was accused of cor-

ruption, human rights abuses and repression in his rule, which ended in a 1986 uprising. After years of exile in France, he returned to Haiti in 2011. His death was announced by Haiti’s health minister, and the ex-leader’s attorney Reynold Georges confirmed he died at home on Saturday.

Brazil court dismisses hacker threat at presidential vote (BBC News) ON the eve of Brazil’s presidential election, the Superior Electoral Court has dismissed reports that the country’s electronic voting system is vulnerable to hacking. The court’s president, Jose Dias Toffoli, has acknowledged that hackers make frequent attempts to break into the electronic ballots. But the system was “safe and fraud-proof”, Mr Toffoli said. More than 142 million Brazilians will go to the polls on Sunday. President Dilma Rousseff, who is running for a second four-year term, is seen as the front-runner. Her main rivals are for-

The system was first used in Brazil in 1996 and the technology has since been exported to other countries.

Lavish wedding At the time of his swearing in, Jean-Claude Duvalier was the youngest president in the world. Initially it seemed that there could be a significant move away from his father’s harsh regime, underpinned as it was by Haiti’s notorious secret police, the Tontons Macoutes, says BBC world affairs correspondent Mike Wooldridge. He moved closer to the Americans, from whom his father had been estranged. US businesses moved in and he allowed limited press freedom. But Jean-Claude Duvalier lived lavishly. His state-sponsored wedding reportedly cost $5m in 1980, while most of the people in his ravaged nation endured the worst poverty in the Western hemisphere. Repression continued,

too, and amid massive unrest in 1986 he fled to France. Human rights groups say thousands of political prisoners were tortured or killed under his rule, and he was accused of massive corruption. He described his return to Haiti - a year after it was devastated by a major earthquake, as a gesture of solidarity to the nation. But he was arrested and charged, and although released he finally appeared in court in February 2013, where in an emotionally-charged hearing in front of some of his alleged victims, he denied responsibility for abuses carried out during his time as president. Judges ruled he could face crimes against humanity charges, but the case had stalled some time before he died.

EDITORIAL

GUYANA

A most significant day in our history TODAY, October 5, marks one of the most significant and historic dates in our history as it was on this date twenty-two years ago when we finally emerged out of a political and economic morass after almost three decades. During those three decades, except for a few years, this country was plunged into dictatorship through rigged elections, squandermania, corruption, political victimisation, harassment and assassinations and denial of press freedom which eventually led to economic collapse. Consequently, Guyana sunk to unbelievable levels of poverty, dilapidated infrastructure, acute shortages of all kinds including food, medical drugs, building materials and fuel.

Blackouts and black market became the norm and even bread was unavailable as a result of the infamous food bans. Guyana became the laughing stock of the Caribbean as the suitcase trading developed. As a result Guyanese travelling to neighbouring countries were treated with scorn and were severely harassed by immigration officials. The situation became so terrible and desperate that a joke emerged, that is, once you are Guyanese you will go to heaven, because you cannot go to hell twice! However, on a more serious note one of the major reasons why this country was kept in the political and economic doldrums was because of the then Cold War. The U.S. and its allies actually propped up the

dictatorial and repressive PNC regime because the alternative was the socialist-oriented PPP led by the indomitable and indefatigable Dr Cheddi Jagan. In fact, he and his PPP Government were toppled by the U.S. and its allies in the 1960s for the very reason under the doctrine of no more Cubas in this hemisphere. Despite their claim to be champions of democracy, human rights and freedom which were being blatantly rasped in our country, the U.S. and its allies turned a blind eye. Eventually, the struggle for free and fair elections which was led by the PPP and later joined by other forces reached its peak and with the imminent end of the Cold War the U.S. and its allies had no choice but to support the struggle for free

and fair elections and the restoration of democracy. So on October 5, 1992 the historic free and fair election was held which saw the PPP returning to Government after an epic 28 years in Opposition. And despite the many continuous attempts by the destructive forces to destabilise and sabotage this Government, undoubtedly we can proudly say our country has made significant strides on all fronts, and the strides would have been even greater had it not been for the sustained efforts by the traditional destructive forces who have now been joined by others. Of course, it would be foolish to say that since October 5, 1992 all our problems have disappeared, but it would be equally or even

more foolish to deny that we have made impressive and significant soci-economic strides. And perhaps our achievements would have been more impressive if there were not consistent efforts by certain political forces to stall progress in pursuit of their narrow and selfish political agenda. In more recent times, this has become increasingly evident with the attempts to block major projects and the passage of the crucial ant-money laundering legislation. But the decisive factor in our continued political and economic progress is the people of this country. They will have to assess and evaluate who are on the side of development and progress and who are opposed to it. Our people have en-

dured much at the hands of certain political forces and therefore it should not be a difficult decision to make. History is on the side of the PPP because since its inception several political forces came on the scene with the sole purpose of destroying it, but they have all ended up being themselves destroyed. And this is not so because of any miracle or mystery. It is simply because the PPP is genuinely and sincerely committed to the development of the people of this country and therefore it is rooted in the people. The others have all been pretenders and masqueraders whose selfish interests take precedence over national development.

An awareness campaign to educate hunters is needed MR. A. PERSAUD has written to the press (KN 1.10.14) “correcting a distortion of the facts” in response to my letter regarding wanton destruction of wildlife. It is regrettable that, prior to writing my letter to the press, my attempts to make contact with Mr. Persaud on this matter were futile as he could have informed me directly of the circumstances leading to the extraordinary photo of the dead puma sent to me by a concerned citizen albeit two years later. I hope that he can understand my confusion as the hunter in the photograph next to the

dead puma was posing, not with a shotgun, but rather with what appeared to be a high-powered rifle. Nevertheless, better late than never. I restate, as in my original letter, that I believe in working with hunters to address wildlife issues so I am delighted to learn that Mr. Persaud and I share a similar approach to conservation. Indeed it is this kind of staunch commitment that is necessary to enable us to partner in what I believe is a needed awareness campaign to educate hunters not only on species that are protected from hunting, but also on mechanisms to assist when

capture and relocation are desired. Additionally, the fact that the puma meat was given by Mr. Persaud “to a Chinese friend who considered it a delicacy” has just broadened the scope of the awareness campaign to also reach the Chinese companies and individuals so as to educate them that our wildlife are much valued by Guyanese and tourists alive rather than in a pot. On Mr. Persaud’s contention that “pumas are being hunted legally to this day even in the U.S.A,” I would point out that the American wildlife regulatory agencies have a long history of very robust monitoring of their hunting seasons and

such harvesting of wildlife, whereas in Guyana we are very much in our embryonic stage. We have a long way to go but the signs are encouraging as the Permanent Secretary of our Ministry of Natural Resources and the Environment has committed that Ministry’s full support for the awareness programme. I am convinced that with the help of concerned hunters, such as Mr. Persaud, and others who generously engaged me this week that we will get there. ANNETTE ARJOON-MARTINS

Most youths would contribute to national development programmes if given the opportunity By Keith Burrowes FOR several years now I had the privilege of serving on several state boards. On the one hand, it is rewarding work, the primary benefit for me being the opportunity to serve the country. The work, even though voluntary, is as strenuous and demanding as any paid job however and, like others similarly tasked, I’ve had to be creative in making sure that I deliver the best possible input into whatever role I undertake. Over the years of my involvement in such activities, I would not have been able to stretch myself as admittedly thin as I have without the support of a cadre of young people, whose commitment has proven to me a debunking of the myth that our youth have little interest or ability when it comes to serious work. Whereas, far too many see a position on a board as a status symbol in itself, proof that they are a notch above the average citizen, I believe that not only does it represent the ability to prove one’s nationalism, but to transmit that sense of commitment as widely as possible while providing the opportunity for the upcoming generation to learn things that will be useful to them down the line. The approach I’ve used is to explore the extent to which I could involve young people – once basic concerns of professionalism, confidentiality or conflict of interest are not breached – in supporting the work I am doing and my payback has not just been the ability to carry out my assigned work easier, but a chance to see youthful innovation and inventiveness at work. Most importantly the job that I’ve undertaken gets done – the board benefits, the entity benefits, and the country benefits. Far too many young people in Guyana today are not

afforded the avenues for the outlet for their intellectual energy. In contrast, there are a considerable number of people who have accumulated a wealth of knowledge in various fields. Several people I know that have served on boards or other policy making mechanisms for years, as much as a decade or more in some cases, during which time they would have accumulated a fair amount of technical knowledge, in addition to institutional memory. For me, this falls into the realm of the issue of the transfer of knowledge, one which I’ve dealt with before in this column, and will return to again. For now, by way of example, I could say this: I have seen various organisations retain, over a number of years, various expatriate consultants to work on the very same issue. What was missing from their operational model, in my estimation, was a mechanism in which knowledge pertinent to whatever needed to be fixed was transferred to local personnel, preventing the perpetual dependency of the respective organisations. To be fair, I know at least one donor organisation I worked with which had a practice of “twinning” their consultants with local counterparts, although this is more the exception than the rule. I would humbly suggest, and this is something I will give much greater development in a subsequent article, that perhaps a special mechanism be established when engaging not just donors but commercial enterprises as well. We are on the verge of tremendous ventures in exploitation of our petroleum resources, for example: I believe that a system of building incentive options – linking the sharing of specialist knowledge to specific benefits – into whatever agreements are being made can be a feasible

option. I’m not speaking here of training of the local personnel on the entity workforce, which is a separate issue, but a ‘twinning’ of specialist personnel with tertiary education students, from either the University of Guyana or the various technical institutes as well as the labour colleges. My point is that we need to move beyond engaging foreign corporate investors using the usual institutions like GO-Invest, the GRA and the Ministry of Finance but to also come up with ways in which they can commit to our learning institutions. Of course,

it would be prudent for those institutions to at least strive to meet these agencies halfway. The petroleum industry, cited above, may not be operational at present, nor is the hydropower industry; this does not mean however that our institutions of higher learning cannot be proactive in preparing for their advent. While we cannot practically expect a full programme tailored to the engineering needs of, say, the petroleum industry, there is the scope for the current engineering curriculum to organise one course, or some other fa-

QUESTIONS FOR JAMAICA AND CARICOM ON ‘ANTI-TERRORISM’ UN RESOLUTION…

Analysis by Rickey Singh IN party politics, they say, all things are possible. And this past week two governing parties of our Caribbean Community were quite ready to demonstrate their respective surprises-big time! They are Jamaica’s ruling Peoples National Party (PNP) and Trinidad and Tobago’s United National Congress (UNC)dominated People’s Partnership (PP) administration. The occasion was the co-sponsorship of a resolution with the United States of America on September 24 to condemn “violent extremism” - as being carried out by ‘jidahist’ combatants of ISIS (Islamic State of Iraq and Syria). Further to underscore the need to prevent ‘travel support’ by such foreign terrorists from returning to their home bases after their terroristic exploits. That, basically, is a summary of the resolution unanimously approved by the United Nations Security Council at UN headquarters in New York. President Barack Obama was personally involved in mobilising wider cosponsorship support for the resolution that resulted in some quite interesting diplomatic choreography by delegations of the 193-member world body. Finally, according to information I have received, the total support cast for the resolution was 104 but only two of these were from CARICOM-Jamaica and T&T. For the entire Latin America/Caribbean Region the votes cast in support of the resolution total merely eight, including the CARICOM two. Different strokes The six others were the U.S.A, Canada, Chile, Colombia, Paraguay and Uruguay. There were further surprises in relation to CARICOM member states—Trinidad and Tobago.

The T&T’s Prime Minister, Kamla Persad-Bissessar, was apparently so thrilled by the historic moment of her government and country being among the co-sponsoring nations of the U.S.-initiated resolution, that the impression at first mistakenly conveyed - primarily by domestic media

coverage-was that of a ‘big-up’ initiative with ‘Uncle Sam.’ Now is neither the time nor occasion to recall the direct military involvement of the U.S.A in sovereign states that cannot objectively be separated from the perils, the horrors of terrorism currently afflicting various nations with the Middle East and Asia being distressing examples. Of immediate relevance however is the split responses demonstrated by the 14-member states of CARICOM, and more particularly, those of T&T and Jamaica. For instance, as earlier alluded, while Jamaica opted for public silence, the T&T Prime Minister was vigorously highlighting in the media her government’s commitment to combating the frightening threat of ‘jihadist’ terrorists—and

SUNDAY CHRONICLE October 5, 2014

perhaps with objective reasons. An example? “50 Trinis fighting with ISIS” (Trinidad Express Sept.26)-her Jamaican counterpart, Prime Minister Portia Simpson-Miller, was to adopt a surprising posture of public silence on the UN Security Council vote. According to random checks made, neither the Jamaica Observer nor the Jamaica Gleaner reported any statement— assuming one was released on the co-sponsorship voting with the U.S.A on the anti-terrorism resolution. But I stand corrected. Ultimately it is the sovereign state, of a democraticallyelected government—as in the case of both Jamaica and T&T—to decide these matters. However, in contrast to the virtual saturated media coverage provided for the people of that twin-island republic, the public-silence posture adopted by Jamaica—up to the time of writing today’s column remains quite surprising. It could not have resulted from fear of reprisals, since the tough decision had already been taken to be among the 104 countries that followed the lead of Uncle Sam. So, why not at least a brief information-oriented statement for the benefit of the Jamaican people, and their CARICOM cousins as well? Of course, there remains a broader question that requires some explanation by CARICOM, whose dozen other independent member countries avoided casting a vote for or against. After all, readers would be aware of the eloquent rhetorical flows from officialdom about our being “One Community, One People…” And so we must be, and united too, against ALL forms of terrorism and activities that make a tragic farce of basic human freedoms and human dignity.

Volda Lawrence needs to get her facts straight on ‘Clean-Up My Country’ THE Ministry of Local Government and Regional Development has Chided A people’s Partnership for National Unity (APNU) Member of Parliament, Ms. Volda Lawrence for getting her facts wrong with respect to the ‘Clean-Up My Country Programme.’ The Ministry said last Wednesday evening, A Partnership for National Unity (APNU) held a community meeting in West Ruimveldt and several statements about the Clean-Up My Country” Programme were made and misrepresented. Ms. Lawrence needs to get her facts straight. She lambasted the Government for not giving City Hall a spray can to spray mosquitoes which is presumed to be what is rightfully called a “fogging machine.” Ms. Lawrence said: “Several communities cannot be sprayed at a time because even City Hall don’t have a spray can.” Personal Assistant to the Minister, Raphael Hazel said: “I will like to inform Ms. Lawrence that on September 23, 2014 at around 09:30hrs one swing fog machine was handed over to the Acting Town Clerk, Carol Sooba who received it on behalf of the Council. In addition, at that event, RDCs of Regions 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 were also recipients of

swing fog machines which will be used for fogging exercises in the respective communities. In addition, the key of one of the repaired garbage trucks of the M&CC was handed over to the Town Clerk, all to a total value of $5.2M.” He added: “Another bit of correction for Ms. Lawrence-Well, I am not sure which alleyways Ms. Lawrence has been looking at, but across Georgetown under the “Clean-Up My Country” Programme, alleyways were cleared of overgrown vegetation and concrete drains are now visible to all who have eyes to see this after waiting on a lethargic Mayor to do his job of keeping the Capital City clean.” VOLDA LAWRENCE

Ms. Lawrence, to her poorly attended audience, (not sure if she was addressing the stalls or the moving vehicles) said, “It was not the PPP’s plan to clean Georgetown because the PPP is not living in it.” This is a blatant misrepresentation by APNU/PNCR. The party continues to deceive its supporters with twisted tales. Interestingly enough, all of the communities which are undergoing community restoration and sanitation improvement programmes are held out as being APNU/PNCR support base. Given the filth that the Mayor of Georgetown has his fellow APNU/PNCR supporters living in, the Government did what is best for the population and what the Council should have done. “Ms. Lawrence and the APNU’s troop or cohorts seem not to understand that as part of the implementation of the Georgetown cleanup programme, community consultations were held in all communities. At each consultation, the residents were given the opportunity to highlight and elaborate on environmental issues that

The PPP/C minority government more the likely risk taker than the Opposition (Previously published on September 9, 2014)

“And so, as the election frenzy lingers and the possibility of an election becomes real, it should not be surprising that the PPP/C minority Government and the Opposition may continuously look for opportunities to place their political status on firm foundations; and now each day, both Government and Opposition would be calculating how far to take their engagement.” ELECTION frenzy is sweeping Guyana, as the country awaits the fate of the anticipated no-confidence motion in Parliament in October 2014. The Opposition with a oneseat majority in Parliament could win the no-confidence motion. And the election frenzy is gaining increasing momentum, as there is possibility of the President’s announcement of a snap election. The backdrop to the political situation is that since 2011, there has been a spanking new political dispensation in Guyana, comprising a minority Government (PPP/C) and an Opposition-controlled APNU and AFC Parliament. As the election fever rolls on, the usual election agenda items as talking points at this time are, among others, the invocation of constitutional reforms, delving into the innermost recesses into what political system is best for Guyana, the Guyana Elections Commission’s (GECOM) customary defensiveness of its voters’ lists, the typical overstated disparagements of the Government’s performance, the Government’s promotion of ethnic marginalisation and exclusion, corruption, the reappearance of some media houses as the new Opposition. These agenda items represent important talking points at election times, and the Guyanese electorate should have more of these. But there also should be talk about not only the Government, but the Opposition, too. Nevertheless, given that the Government’s performance is public knowledge, what is substantively missing are the Opposition Parties’ agenda items on what each will do for the poor and vulnerable, should it gain political power. So far, the Opposition has a policy, a policy merely to win an election, but not preferred policies for the people’s welfare (1). And that Opposition’s policy to win the next election is to strategically block the Government’s capital projects: the Cheddi Jagan Airport Modernisation Project, Ogle Aerodrome assistance, Civil Aviation equipment and Hinterland/Coastal Airstrips, the specialist hospital, Marriott Hotel, and the Amaila Hydropower Project. The Government’s capital programme would provide enormous gains to the poor and vulnerable. And so, as the election frenzy lingers and the possibility of an election becomes real, it should not be surprising that the PPP/C minority Government and the Opposition may continuously look for opportunities to place their political status on firm foundations; and now each day, both Government and Opposition would be calculating how far to take their engagement. Therefore, at least for the PPP/C minority government in the spirit of recouping its electoral losses from the 2011 General and Regional Elections, going to the polls or not

going to the polls remains an active dilemma for decision making. Barbara Vis’ study of prospect theory (2) could explain political calculations under risk conditions. These political calculations drive what decisions to make; and such decisions involve risk. But how do people make decisions under risky conditions? Prospect theory (3) may be applicable here. This theory suggests the following: people make different choices when they have benefits and losses. When people face losses, they accept the risk in making decisions because they want to recoup their losses; when people have benefits/advantages, they are not happy taking risks because they want to hold onto what they already have. In addition, people generally feel a hurt more when they face losses than when they experience gains. Put another way, ‘losses hurt more than equal gains please’ (4). And the people who are loss averse would tend to avoid change, and so would latch onto the existing state of affairs. And they may very well want to remain with the present situation because with any change, the losses seem greater than the gains (5). Applying prospect theory to Guyana would suggest the following: the combined Opposition (APNU and AFC) with a one-seat majority in parliament may see this majority as an advantage/benefit, and so may not be comfortable to change its situation; the Opposition has another option for political decision making; this option involves a coalition of APNU and AFC prior to any national and regional election; nevertheless, the combined Opposition may experience risk-aversion, whereby it wants to hold onto what it has. On the other hand, the PPP/C minority Government may be more likely to take the risk of trying to recoup its electoral losses. According to prospect theory, people are less likely to take risks when they have advantages/gains than people who face losses. In this situation, the PPP/C is the likely risk taker. In the case of Guyana, how does prospect theory work in the context of individual voters? In the same way as prospect theory has some applicability to political parties; it also has implications for an individual voter’s political decisions. Would an individual voter turn out to vote in a ‘snap’ election? If this voter is experiencing losses from the last election, then this voter would be more likely to vote at a ‘snap’ election; on the other hand, if a voter experiences benefits or gains from

the last election, then that voter may be less enthused to vote at a ‘snap’ election. In this situation, parties may have to ‘sus’ out what the losses and the gains mean for an individual voter. For the PPP/C minority Government to recoup its electoral losses at some future election, it, therefore, has to win over those voters who believe that they are enjoying advantages/ benefits from the previous election. So while the PPP/C

minority Government may more likely be a risk taker at summoning a national poll, it also has to convince those voters to change political preferences in a situation where they feel they have benefits/advantages accruing from the last election. These voters may want to hold onto what they already have. And, indeed, there is that option of APNU/AFC coalition, where with their gains they would tend to avoid risks, and so they may want to leave things as they are. But their supporters with fewer gains than the APNU/AFC Parties from the last election may be less risk-averse and, therefore, may influence APNU/AFC toward a coalition. Nonetheless, people generally tend to avoid risks, especially in politics. But, indeed, there are calculated risks. 1. Dorn JA, Hanke SH, Walters AA.

are affecting their communities. After the consultations, a representing body or a Community Coordinator was asked to submit a proposal to the Ministry of Local Government and Regional Development outlining the areas that needed to be restored such as clearing of parapets and alleyways of overgrown vegetation, removal of illegal dump sites and restoration of playgrounds within the represented communities. Each Community Coordinator recruited workers from his/her community and they all received emoluments for the duration of the Community

Enhancement Programme,” Hazel said. He noted too that when Ms. Lawrence made a statement which said, “Don’t let anybody come into the community to put in contract to clean up yuh community. Don’t let anybody tell yuh, they is PPP and they got to get a contract.” These remarks clearly illustrate how Mr. David Granger and his followers are misleading their supporters. Hazel noted that to give testimony to what is fact from a concocted story, the gentleman who seemed to be the Chairperson of the community meeting, Mr. Heston Bostwick was the contractor for Albouystown Restoration

Programme of which some 34 persons including himself were contracted and were remunerated for cleaning their community exercise. “APNU/PNCR continues to work to undermine the efforts of the Government of Guyana to improve the living standards of the people of Guyana, and that includes the sanitation conditions under which our people live. They have attacked every effort of the Government to bring improvement to the living standards of the people of Guyana. Mr. Granger seems to be playing ping pong to the detriment of his supporters and all of Guyana,” Hazel asserted.

Chronicle Weekend Roundup with Telesha Ramnarine September 29 – October 4, 2014 Monday 29 Crackdown on illegal imports of meat and meat products REPORTS of illegal importation of some meat and meat products have reached the Ministry of Agriculture, which is working on cracking down on such activities. According to the Ministry, any illegal importation of these products threatens Guyana’s food security, as well as investment made in the livestock sector; threats that will not be tolerated by the Government of Guyana. “Any meat and meat product found on the market without the requisite approval will be seized and destroyed,” a statement from the Ministry said. Guyana deposits two treaty instruments at UN MINISTER of Foreign Affairs, Carolyn RodriguesBirkett deposited the instruments of accession for two Conventions at the United Nations (UN) 2014 Treaty Event, which was held from September 23-25 and will continue from September 30 to October 1, at the United Nations Headquarters in New York. The two conventions are: The Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards (1958), and the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (1980). By depositing the instruments of accession, Guyana joined the efforts to advance the universal application of the framework of internationally agreed-upon norms and standards. Last year, 59 states undertook 113 treaty actions during the course of the Treaty Event. Police probing death of Brazilian woman POLICE have launched an investigation into the Mazaruni River mishap involving two speed boats in which a Brazilian national lost her life. The boats, captained by Eugene Charles, 58, of Parika, East Bank Essequibo and Clifton Melville, 19, of Fifth Avenue, Bartica, were proceeding along the Mazaruni River, with passengers when they collided, causing Jifele Brasilaira Vierra De Sales- Lie Akigia, a 31-year-old Brazilian woman to fall overboard and disappear. As a result, a search was conducted and the body was found the same day. ***************************************** Tuesday 30 Bids for new West Dem road opens FIVE contractors have been shortlisted and have uplifted bidding documents for work on the new West Coast Demerara/ East Bank Essequibo roadway, from Vreed-en-Hoop to Hydronie. This is according to Chief Roads and Bridges Officer of the Public Works Ministry, Ron Rahaman, who added that the bidding, at the National Procurement and Tender Administration (NPTA), is expected to be opened on October 28. Just over two weeks ago, the Ministry of Public Works secured the approval of the Caribbean Development Bank (CDB) for the project’s bidding documents. Under the project, a total of 31 kilometers of roadway are expected to be rehabilitated, while 28.5 kilometres of footpaths for pedestrians and 20 kilometres for cyclists will be developed. Granger reiterates call for school transportation system LEADER of the Opposition, Brigadier David Granger has made another call on the Government of Guyana to provide road and riverine transportation for school children, particularly those in rural and hinterland communities. The call by Granger comes against the backdrop of demands made to Minister in the Ministry of Finance, Juan Edghill when he met residents of Coomaka, Elizabeth Maria -Three Friends, Old England, and Nothinghamshire. “Residents complained about poor transportation service for school-age children. According to a GINA report, residents “implored the Minister to intervene as they complained that during the rainy season children are forced to stay at home because no transportation is available,” the statement said. Parents, according to Granger, were reported to have said: “These children walk for miles to go to school and they come home late at nights. If we get a minibus to collect all the school children in the mines it would encourage the children to go to school more.” Rohee suggests AFC be prepared for major ‘fall-out’ PEOPLE’s Progressive Party (PPP) General Secretary, Clement Rohee has suggested that the Alliance For Change (AFC) had better prepare itself for a “major fall-out politically,” because A Partnership for National Unity (APNU) seem not to be moving in the direction of supporting the NoConfidence Motion. Speaking at the party’s weekly press conference, he said: “If APNU withdraw its support, we know well what we are heading for. It would seem to me that… the APNU is not pushing for the No-Confidence motion. I understand they are saying it is not their motion; it’s the AFC motion. So the AFC will have to decide at some point whether they withdraw the motion or push for it in a situation where the APNU seems to be looking in another direction. The handwriting is on the wall. ***************************************** Wednesday 1 Mother dragged from home, brutally raped in bushes A THIRTY-ONE-YEAR-OLD mother of four was cruelly dragged from her home through bushes and brutally raped at Devonshire Castle on the Essequibo Coast. Speaking to this

newspaper, the badly brutalised and injured woman said she was sleeping on her bed with her young baby in the front room of her two-bedroom flat concrete house when she was attacked by a man whom she described as short and dark with a low haircut. The woman said she only awoke from her sleep when her feet accidentally hit her wall divider in her house. She said the man had already lifted her off the bed and was taking her outside the house when she awoke. The young mother said she started to scream and fight the man who dealt her several cuffs in her face. According to the woman, she lost consciousness while the man was raping her in a clump of bushes. She only regained consciousness when she heard some voices calling for her in the bushes. Biker dies in road accident after Uitvlugt party RAYSHAN “Cookie” Cook, 21, of Goed Fortuin, West Bank Demerara was killed after his motorcycle, CE 4340, collided with two motor cars on the public road at Anna Catherina, West Coast Demerara. Cook received several broken bones and his bloodied body was taken to the West Demerara Regional Hospital (WDRH). An eyewitness told the Chronicle that Cook was at the same party where he was and that Cook was telling his friends that he cannot drink any alcohol because he was riding. Freelance reporter on $50,000 bail over fraudulent conversion charge FORMER Freelance Sports Reporter at the Chronicle, Mark Bradford was placed on $50,000 bail by Chief Magistrate Priya Sewnarine-Beharry on fraudulent conversion charge. Forty-five-year-old, Bradford, of Lot 91 M&TC Housing Scheme, New Amsterdam, Berbice, pleaded not guilty to the charge that said between November 1 and December 24, 2013, at Georgetown, with intent to defraud, he converted $525,050 in cash that was solely entrusted to him by Elton Cordis. The money was intended to pay for the venue, music and police for a foam party, but Bradford fraudulently converted the said cash to his own use and benefits, being the property of Debbie Joseph. Police Prosecutor Michael Grant did not oppose bail and the matter stands adjourned to October 31. ***************************************** Thursday 2 AFC signals ‘historic move’ on October 16 OCTOBER 16, although not confirmed, seems to be the date for a “historic move” on the Alliance For Change (AFC) sponsored no-confidence motion, according to the party’s General-Secretary, Mr. David Patterson. In a statement on the AFC’s Facebook page, he said, “The end is near!! Just came out of a meeting with APNU – and they have GUARANTEED support for the AFC No Confidence Motion when Parliament reconvenes next week! Mark this date October 16, 2014 – History shall be made!” Reforms a must for NIS to remain relevant- Dr. Luncheon DR. ROGER LUNCHEON has called on workers of the National Insurance Scheme (NIS) to recommit to providing services of an impeccable standard to the people whom they serve, and to execute their duties in such a way so as not to expose the institution to criticisms and ridicule. Speaking of NIS’s public image, Dr. Luncheon said that the scheme, like many other organisations, has not escaped unscathed from the proclivity of some sections of society to tear down and ridicule. “It is our 45th year and there is so much for us to be proud of; but at the end of the day we have to be careful to safeguard the honour, integrity and image of this scheme, and not be adopting reckless approaches that would threaten the very image that has so labouriously been established through the efforts over the decades of so many people and organisations,” Dr. Luncheon said. Unscrupulous Route 44 operators still demanding an increase EVEN after the United Minibus Union represented the Route 44 operators on September 18 at a meeting with Minister of Tourism (ag), Irfaan Ali following protest action and a structured fare was agreed and implemented, some unscrupulous minibus operators are still demanding an increase. The fare hike is being demanded in the afternoon period, especially during the ‘rush hour’ and at nights when fewer minibuses are operating, commuters reported. Passengers said they are still forced to pay $200 to get home in the evening from the city to Victoria, East Coast Demerara, with four persons in a seat. The fare agreed upon is $160 from Georgetown to as far as Victoria, East Coast Demerara. ***************************************** Friday 3 Dr. Luncheon discharged from hospital after brief stay HEAD of the Presidential Secretariat and Cabinet Secretary, Dr. Roger Luncheon was discharged from the Caribbean Heart Institute. Speaking with the Guyana Chronicle outside of the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation as the Cabinet Secretary was being taken to his car after being discharged, Agriculture Minister, Dr. Leslie Ramsammy recalled that Dr. Luncheon was attending Cabinet

meeting when he had to be rushed to hospital. Dr. Ramsammy said: “Dr. Luncheon wasn’t feeling well this morning. He came to the Cabinet meeting despite the fact that he wasn’t well, and during the Cabinet meeting, he had something to drink and vomitted; so we brought him to the hospital. The emergency doctors have checked him out; he was dehydrated, and that’s the cause for him not feeling well. They have rehydrated him by treating him with saline. He is well, as you can see, and going home.” CANU receives transportation boost, praised for its efficiency THE Ministry of Home Affairs presented its Customs Anti-Narcotics Unit (CANU) with a minibus to assist in its transportation needs. This initiative is part of an ongoing process that the Government of Guyana has taken to ensure CANU’s resources are sufficient to fulfill its lawful responsibilities. Minister of Home Affairs, Clement Rohee assured that all law enforcement agencies, including CANU, will be fully equipped, both with manpower and other necessary resources. He also noted that despite its challenges, CANU has performed very effectively in carrying out its mandate. CANU is a department under the Ministry of Home Affairs whose primary function is to counter and eradicate drug trafficking in Guyana. Fifty Amerindians successfully complete CMRV Programme THE Community Monitoring, Reporting and Verification (CMRV) Programme, which was pioneered over the past two and a half years in the North Rupununi Wetlands of Guyana, wrapped up recently with the presentation and discussion of a comprehensive monitoring report of the resources and social well-being of all 16 villages in the North Rupununi. The CMRV Programme, funded by the Norwegian Agency for Development Cooperation (NORAD), was implemented with its partners – the North Rupununi District Development Board (NRDDB), Iwokrama and the Global Canopy Programme (GCP). The programme saw the successful training of over 50 Amerindians – mostly youths- from sixteen villages of the North Rupununi area in new technologies using smart phones as tools for data collection and monitoring. ***************************************** Saturday 4 Cereal production facility for Region 2 THE Institute of Applied Science and Technology (IAST), in partnership with the Ministry of Tourism, Industry and Commerce launched an initiative to build a commercial facility in Region 2 (Pomeroon/Supenaam) for the production of breakfast cereals from rice. Government will invest Guyana $75M into the project, for a facility which would have the capacity to produce five tonnes of breakfast cereals daily. The funding is secured under the Rural Development Fund administered by the Ministry of Tourism, Industry and Commerce. Director of IAST, Professor Suresh Narine, commented: “This is the first of a series of innovative projects at the IAST that will be commercialised within the next 10 months, and I am delighted that this, the first of the series, focuses on adding value to rice to produce a nutritious, tasty and high-value product. I would like to express my sincere thanks to Minister Ali for his partnership and vision in collaborating with the institute to make this commercialisation possible.” Industry/Plaisance NDC Overseer’s appointment above board- Whittaker LOCAL Government Minister, Norman Whittaker has refuted claims made by residents of the Industry/ Plaisance Neighbourhood Democratic Council (NDC) in respect of the newly appointed overseer, stating that he was selected fairly using a democratic process. The Government Information Agency (GINA) quoted Whittaker as saying that the residents were misinformed and misguided on the appointment of the overseer, Orlando Jardine. On October 1, a small group of residents protested in front of the Industry/ Plaisance NDC, over Jardine’s appointment and what they claim is the takeover of inherited land by the Government. But Jardine’s appointment, Whittaker explained, followed a standard required procedure implemented in all of the 65 NDCs. GuyExpo treats patrons with excellent local fruits, vegetables, packaged food items AS the hype continues, Guyexpo saw thousands of patrons on the second night eagerly viewing and discussing with exhibitors their products. It was to many a surprise that Guyana Supermarket was so well stocked with so much local produce. Minister of Tourism, Industry and Commerce, Irfaan Ali had alluded to during a recent press conference that GuyExpo 2014 will have several new features that are conceptually different from previous GuyExpos and this year “we will be launching in collaboration with the Ministry of Agriculture, The Eat What you Grow Campaign”. He explained also that this major innovation will be a 100% local supermarket “a large supermarket right here at the Exhibition site with an extensive array of local products and produce.”

Mexico Embassy opens Photography Exhibit with theme: ‘From the kitchen to the eyes (1900-1961)’ “Mexican Chef Arturo Garcia-Mogollon (right) preparing his delicacies for the photography exhibit at the Mexico Embassy on Wednesday evening”

President of Tourism and Hospitality Association of Guyana (THAG) alongside Deputy Head of Mission at the Mexican Embassy in deep conversation at the photography exhibit opening at the Mexico Embassy Wednesday evening

THE Embassy of Mexico has once again staged a photography exhibit with the theme “From the Kitchen to the eyes (1900-1961)” derived from the Mexico’s Casasola archives in the presence of diplomats on Wednesday evening. The event was curated by the National Gallery Castellani House featuring Mexico’s finest chef, Arturo Garcia-Mogollon, who was the highlight of the evening. The exhibit will continue to showcase its theme until the 3rd of October at the embassy’s Brickdam location to commemorate their (Mexico) Independence which was celebrated on September 15th. Hovered against white walls were digitized images that shouted life from the urban society in the 1900s, Mexico and the way Mexicans dwelled in terms of their eating lifestyles. Chef Arturo correlated a wide array of dishes to bring the gathering to the revelation that the traditions have not changed a tad whilst simultaneously giving the guests a taste of ‘Mexico’ today. Aside from the kitchen segment, there were also segments that showcased pieces from the revolution, crime related issues as well as the influence of the French people in the Mexican society. Amidst the gathering were President of Tourism and Hospitality Association of Guyana (THAG), Mr. Kit Nascimento, Russian Ambassador to Guyana, Nikolay Smirnov amongst Mexico Ambassador to Guyana, Mr. Francisco Olguin and Deputy Head of Mission at the Mexican Embassy, Ms. Maria-Elena Alcarez; all of whom were insanely fascinated by the photography against the walls. “I love all the photos because people are not just going about their lives and that is the beauty of the whole Casasola archive…” bemoaned Ms. Alcarez. The photos vividly portrayed Mexico’s history in the midst of its revolution from the year 1910 onwards, capturing food from the ancient times to the 21st century and how it has revolved overtime. Through the camera lens of photojournalist, Agustin Casasola and his brother, Miguel Casasola, the Casasola Archive is highly recognised as the seat of Mexico’s history. The Casasola family shared this talent from generations to generations until it there are over three thousand legendary photos plastered and housed at InstitutoNacional de AntropologiaHistoria’sFototeca in Pachuca, Hidalgo Mexico amidst other photographers’ work.

EID UL ADHA MESSAGES PPP extends EID-UL-AZHA MESSAGE EID UL ADHA MESSAGEgreetings on this FROM THE GUYANA The Act of Great Faith auspicious occasion UNITED SADR ISLAMIC East Geogetown of Eid-ul-Ada to the ANJUMAN & THE Sunnatul Jamaat Muslim community SHAHEED BOYS & EID-UL-ADHA, the great sacrifice is commemorated on the 10th of Zil Hajj, the last month of the Islamic Year, GIRLS ORPHANAGES THE People's Progressive Party (PPP) extends greetings following the completion of Hajj (pilgrimage to Mecca) to all our Muslim brothers and sisters on this auspicious occasion of Eid-ul-Ada. The PPP calls on all Guyanese, in particular Muslims to use the occasion to reflect on the significance of this observance which portrays the virtues of sacrifice and obedience to the will of Allah. These are values that are universally embraced by peoples throughout the world and have served over the centuries to guide humanity along the path of righteousness and submission to the will of the Almighty. As we observe this occasion, let us spare a thought for the less fortunate in our society and the world at large who are the victims of deprivation and want and those who suffer from religious persecution. Unlike many parts of the world, we are truly blessed to live in a country where there is religious freedom and tolerance. Let us also embrace the lessons of faith and submission especially at this time when there are forces in our society who seems determined to test the will and patience of the Guyanese people by seeking to trample on their democratic and constitutional rights. But, as the lessons of Eid ul Ada so forcefully brings out, justice and truth always prevails over injustice and backwardness. Once again, happy Eid ul Ada greetings to all Guyanese.

THE Executive of the Guyana United Sadr Islamic Anjuman (GUSIA) and the Board of the Shaheed Boys & Girls Orphanages take the opportunity to extend to our Muslim Community and the Guyanese Nation, greetings on the occasion of Eid-ul Azha. This day, which observes the great sacrifice of the great friend of Allah – Prophet Ibrahim (AS); is a day which must fill the hearts of Mankind with great joy. The Prophet Ibrahim was a person who translated in his life, qualities that are associated with great character. Generations of nations are preserved by his teachings. Islam recognises the superiority of the actions of this great Prophet by commanding Muslims to emulate these acts. The establishment of progressive nations and successful people are results of adherence to the guidance of great prophets as Prophet Ibrahim. We join with Muslims throughout the world to remind all of the eminence and virtues of this great but honourable leader of mankind and to echo the feelings of love for this great Prophet of Allah and his beloved son, Ishmail. In this age of political instability, ethnic and racial violence, greed, materialism and uncertainties, the selfless actions and willingness to sacrifice that which he loved best, still remain a vivid example of qualities in a human that allows him to tower over all others. We join to express joy and goodness on this special occasion of Eid ul Azha.

GAWU’s Eid-ul-Adha Message 2014

giving willingly in the interest of assisting one’s fellow human beings. Sacrifice for progress is needed in the Guyana of today. GAWU sees the need for give-and-take and compromise in national life and undertaken in terms of national development which will see our citizens being all the winners. Sacrifice is often a forerunner and an ingredient for success – at several significant levels be it at the personal and community and national levels. This significant occasion that will be celebrated by our Islamic community must also serve to inspire our people in the higher causes of service and obedience in the national interest.

THE occasion of Eid-ul-Adha is once again with us and the Guyana Agricultural and General Workers Union (GAWU) joins the nation in wishing the Muslim community amongst us a Happy and Joyous Eid-ulAdha. The very essence of this Eid observance is derived from Abraham’s obedience in responding to divine instruction to sacrifice that which he loved the most. So sacrifice is one of the most noble of human behaviour –

EID-UL-ADHA MESSAGE FROM ACIC

ISLAM celebrates two great festivals annually, Eid-ulFitr and Eid-ul-Adha. The first is the great festival that follows the month of Ramadan and the second occurs about two months later, when an animal is sacrificed in commemoration of the steadfastness of Prophet Abraham and his son Ishmael. This festival, incorporated in the great pilgrimage to Mecca, is also observed all over the Muslim world at the same time. The underlying importance of this festival is the spirit of sacrifice (Qurbani) in memory of Prophet Abraham’s great act of faith many centuries ago. Eid-ul-Adha is a time for Muslims to learn the value of self-denial by making a sacrifice of the things we love, to God almighty. Prophet Abraham’s great act of submission is thus regarded solely as an example of genuine surrender to the will of God and is to be followed as such. Today, more than ever, human beings need to incorporate the lessons of this great sacrifice into our lives. Qurbani offers lessons to all persons aspiring to become leaders. God had said to Abraham, “I have made you the father of many nations”. Because of his faith, God had made him both a prime example of true faith among men and also the father of the faithful. God approved both his faith and trust and accordingly decreed that those who had faith like Abraham were to become his sons and be blessed like him. Therefore, any leader must display the character of our great Prophet

Abraham, especially his willingness to sacrifice everything he loved, for the ultimate hereafter. No one can be blessed with leadership, if he displays no feeling, care and love for his fellow human beings. The world in which we live faces us with difficult choices. Our guidance comes from our willingness to turn toward God and to find peace within ourselves. Then and only then will we feel content in our choices. Our global society could and should be an example of co-existence and cooperation, of mutual benefit and human concern. Muslims need to create an inner environment of peace and faith, of tranquility, nonviolence, and security. Then we can hope to find solidarity and to create cooperation by supporting one another, standing by one another in what is good and right and needed for success, growth, and sustainability. We are to let everyone know the true basis of Islam, its real values, its true principles, its way of life based on pluralism, democratic principles, faith, and mutual respect. Islam abhors and condemns terrorism and aggression, espouses peace and security and safety for all people regardless of nationality or religion or gender or race. Let us not forget our poor and needy brothers and sisters as we observe this festival, by sharing our sacrificial offerings with them. It is our sincere hope and prayer that we are able to affirm the unity possible among Muslims, and between Muslims and other religions. We face the challenges of living in a globalised world where there is greater alienation and distance between classes of individuals based on economics and education. We must work hand in hand with people who have faith in the essential goodness of humankind.

when an animal is sacrificed (Qurbani) in memory of Prophet Ibrahim and his son Ismaeel’s great act of faith many centuries ago. Prophet Ibraheem said to Ismaeel “O my dear son! I saw in a dream that I was offering you in sacrifice; consider therefore what your opinion about it is!” And Ismaeel answered: “O my Father! Do what you have been commanded to do, you will find me, if Allah so wills, one practicing patience and constancy!” When they both surrendered themselves to Allah’s will and Prophet Ibrahim had laid down his son, he directed his knife to Ismaeel’s throat with strength to make it cut but the knife made no entrance. He was extremely troubled, then came a voice from heaven which called out to him saying: “O Ibrahim, you have indeed fulfilled the dream thus we do reward the righteous! So we ransom him with a great and noble victim”. A large lamb with horns and red wool was presented to be sacrificed instead of Isameel. Of course this was a manifest trial for Ibrahim and his son. It is reported in the Holy Quran that the flesh and the blood reach not Allah but the devotion from you reacheth Him. Prophet Ibrahim’s trust in Allah and willingness to submit to Him with the sacrifice of his dearest possession was a severe trial turned manifest example. It is readily evident that when Ibrahim was willing to fulfill Allah’s command of giving up his dear son, Allah did not really want his son since he was given to Ibrahim in his old age. It was a test and both Father and Son submitted to the Will of Allah. Muslims around the world observe this occasion of commitment, obedience and self-sacrifice to Allah in a traditional manner. On this day Muslims make an early start by wearing their best clothing and attend the congregational prayers of Salatul-Eid (Eid Prayer) in the morning. This congregational prayer is usually preformed in an open space where Muslims use the occasion to pray to Allah and to glorify His name to demonstrate the remembrance of His grace and favours. Muslims also remember the deceased by praying for their souls. This is followed by a short sermon, after which Muslims who can afford to do so offer domestic animals, usually sheep, as a symbol of Ibrahim’s sacrifice. In Guyana it is customary to offer the sacrifice in the compound of the Mosque as the facilities are spacious and more convenient. It is highly recommended to divide the Qurbani meat into three portions; one should be kept for the family, one for the relatives and one for the needy and poor. It is forbidden under Islamic law to sell the meat. No helper should be given the meat or skin as a form of payment. Instead a separate remuneration should be given. Notwithstanding the symbolism of the occasion, Eid-ulAdha is a reminder for Muslims to reflect on how Prophet Ibrahim was ready to sacrifice each blessing and happiness of his life for the sake of Allah without giving a second thought to his own will. We should all try to reflect on the significance of this event. The Muslim who diligently adheres to his duties of this day will be the one to maximize his spiritual gains. He would have gained a strong command over his desires and have the ability to exercise self-control. Once a person acquires these qualities he now has the ability to control himself and discipline his passion. In attaining this level of spirituality, he can be free from acts of wrong doing, jealousy, greed, humiliation and other similar worldly temptations. Today marks a day of victory for the Muslim as Eid-ulAdha transcends all limits and expands over the dimensions of human life. The one who succeeds in securing his spiritual rights and growth will be victorious in spirit. The one who observes his duties diligently will be triumphant in faith. He has indeed achieved his greatest victory. On behalf of the Board of Trustees and Members of the East Georgetown Sunnatul Jamaat, I extend a blessed Eid-ul-Adha to the Muslim Community. May Allah accept our sacrifice.

Ramphal says CARICOM indebted to late Fred Cozier

B R I D G E TO W N , Barbados, Oct 4, CMC – Former Commonwealth Secretary General Sir Shridath Ramphal on Saturday said the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) will forever be in the debt of the late F re d e r i c k C o z i e r, t h e grouping’s first secretary general. Sir Shridath, the Chancellor Emeritus of the University of the West Indies and former Chairman of the West Indian Commission, hailed Cozier as “one of our quiet but committed builders of this Region’s institutions.” Cozier, 94, served as CARICOM Secretary General from 1968-69 and the cause of his death has not been publicly revealed.

The late Fred Cozier But Sir Shridath, who was then Attorney-General and Foreign Minister of Guyana, when Cozier came to the Guyana-based CARICOM Secretariat, said “as a West Indian who shared the times of Fred Cozier’s roles in the emergence of the independent Caribbean and of CARIFTA and later CARICOM, his passing conjures up for me the creative excitement of those pioneering years. “Fred’s was a safe pair of

hands when we needed them – not just Barbados but the wider Caribbean. As the first Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Foreign affairs of the newly independent Barbados, he helped to create his country’s foreign policy – a keystone of which was Caribbean regionalism.” “In his capacity as the first Secretary-General of the then CARIFTA Secretariat in Georgetown, it was my privilege as then Attorney-General and Minister of State for Foreign Affairs of Guyana, to welcome him there and help him in his foundationlaying task. “CARICOM is forever in his debt. I feel a personal sense of loss of one of our quiet but committed builders of this Region’s institutions,” said Sir Shridath. When the Cabinet system in Barbados was introduced in 1958, Cozier was among the first group of permanent secretaries chosen to be in charge of the four ministries set up at the time. In 1962, he was transferred to the post of permanent secretary to the Premier of Barbados and was to become the first Barbadian to hold the position of Cabinet Secretary. When Barbados attained its Independence in 1966, Cozier was appointed to the newly established post of Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of External Affairs with responsibility for the establishment of the Barbados Foreign Service and Overseas Missions. From that position he was seconded in 1968 to be the first SecretaryGeneral of the Caribbean Free Trade Association (CARIFTA).

AFC sends warmest Eid-ul-greetings to the Muslim community

THE leadership and members of the Alliance For Change (AFC) express warmest greetings to the entire Muslim community on the occasion of Eid-ul-Adha.

Guyana signs MOU with Barbados – aimed at establishing Trade Missions between countries

GUYANA and Barbados on Friday inked a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) aimed at establishing Trade Missions between the two countries. The MOU was signed by Keith Burrowes, Chief Executive Officer, Guyana Office for Investment (Go-Invest) and Ms. Madaline HeadleyWo o d r o f f e , B u s i n e s s D e v e l o p m e n t O f f i c e r, Barbados Industrial Development Corporation (BIDC) at the GuyExpo Investment Forum held today at the Guyana International Conference Centre (GICC). Burrowes noted that while the MOU should have been signed years ago, it

will be applied, the GoInvest, CEO explained the importance of working with other agencies in this regard. Agreements will be made with the Guyana Revenue Authority and other agencies, Burrowes noted, stressing the fact that there are new economic requirements coming on board, for which Guyana is not ready. (This was an indirect allusion to the Anti-Money Laundering Bill, the absence of which has begun to affect the business community.) H e a d l e y - Wo o d r o ff e , observed that the organisation she worked for the BIDC, is much similar to Go-Invest. She explained that while the main function of the MOU is to facilitate trade between the two countries “for a long

“We provide subsidised factory space and also help them with funding through a special technical assistance p r o g r a m m e . We t r y t o encourage entrepreneurship from a young age by assisting the youths in our schools, training them in the ways of how to be entrepreneurs and giving them every opportunity to do so through competitions, etc.” she added. H e a d l e y - Wo o d r o f f e pointed out that while the Barbadian team is attending GuyExpo mainly to share ideas and learn from Guyana in terms of agriculture, they welcomed help and assistance in areas needed by Barbados. “ We h a v e e i g h t companies being represented

Keith Burrowes, Chief Executive Officer, Guyana Office for Investment and Madaline Headley-Woodroffe, Business Development Officer, Barbados Industrial Development Corporation sign the Memorandum of Understanding to establish Trade Missions between Guyana and Barbados means Guyana is going into an agreement with Barbados and an examination of having MOUs with other countries as well. He pointed to the issue of due diligence, which is one area the entity would be examining carefully with overseas investors. Explaining that credit ratings would be examined, whilst a turnover time of one week

time now we have been trading with Guyana and many Caribbean islands.” The Barbadian business official stated that while she is responsible for the Caribbean and CARICOM trade agreements, BIDC provides incubation services for some investors for three years, until they graduate into full flight manufacturers.

EID UL ADHA MESSAGES FITUG’s Eid-ul-Adha Message 2014 JUST basic research reveals that Eid-ul-Adha is a Muslim observance meant to celebrate and “honour the willingness of Ibrahim to sacrifice his first son Ishamael as an act of obedience to God.” God/Allah did intervene at a strategic moment to save Ibrahim his Son. Confident of Ibrahim’s obedience and faith, Allah accepted a ram as a form of symbolic sacrifice indeed. As Guyanese share in the symbolism of Muslims sharing their Eid-ul-Adha’s meat, the Federation of Independent Trade Unions of Guyana (FITUG) joins the faithful in the observance but urges all Guyanese to reflect on some of the deeper significance of this end of Haji Eid. Concepts such as obedience and sacrifice are paramount,

and they cross the borders of different areas; cabling, some in food, jewellery, printing, solar power agencies, just to give you a sample of some of the areas we are covering,” Headley-Woodroffe stated. Observing that solar energy was developed in Barbados first she expressed hurt that all of the solar panels are now being provided by

China, Australia, Germany and other places. “I believe that as a Region we should be able to do more to promote the things which we have developed here and in so doing. We are also looking at having geographical indicators (GI) for some of our products in Barbados especially in the rum industry because rum was first made in Barbados,” she noted. She explained that the team is trying to promote GIs in several areas such as black belly sheep farming and husbandry. The MOU signed today is intended to “lead the way for trade between our countries. It will assist with trade missions etc. from one country to another, it will help to broaden horizons into other areas like Brazil that we can step from Barbados through the CARICOM agreements to Guyana and hopefully into Brazil. We hope you can find avenues as well, back through Barbados to the northern areas of the Region,” she stated. Ms. Headley-Woodroffe noted however, that trading in the Region does have challenges. She pointed to the several challenges in exporting products from each country noting that between Guyana and Barbados, it’s mainly in shipping. “It is difficult to ship items from Barbados directly to Guyana because of the trade route. I believe that the authorities need to address this both in Barbados and in Guyana and the Region generally, because if we are in a small area, I don’t believe that we should have to go Miami or so far afield and spend two weeks to get an item here,” the Barbadian trade officer explained. She urged that both countries negotiate and discuss with relevant agencies in an effort to improve the situation and trade within the Region. (GINA)

but given current unfortunate realities in the Arabic/Islamic Middle East of our world, FITUG discovers another potentially-constructive element to this festival. It lies in the fact that both Sunni and Shite Muslims embrace Eid-ul-Adha which is straight from their Holy Book of Guidance, the Quran (Second Sura). It is to be hoped that this Eid will inspire more divine compassion to end the inter-religious, land-grabbing conflicts between the two sets of Muslims worldwide. Here in Guyana, the similarities between the Christian and Islamic versions of Ibrahim’s/Abraham’s willingness to sacrifice their Sons on God’s comment and alter their obedience, resulting in God’s reprieve are all universal testimonies to the virtues of faith and sacrifice. As we all appreciate the symbolism, albeit in practical generosity, of the gifts of sacrificial meats, let us resolve to join the Muslim community, in both celebration and resolve, in maintaining peace and the gift of giving. Eid Mubarak!

Lindener remanded for assaulting girlfriend who refused him sex

By Geeta Rampersaud

Defendant- Collis Duke

A CONSTRUCTION worker on Friday was refused bail by Magistrate Judy Latchman for assaulting his girlfriend after she refused to have sexual intercourse with him. Thirty-nine-year-old Collis Duke, of Lot 768 South Amelia’s Ward, Linden, pleaded not guilty to the charge that said on September 30 at South Amelia’s Ward, he assaulted Wenetta Kopin, so as to cause her actual bodily harm. Police Prosecutor Kerry Bostwick informed the court that the virtual complainant (VC) received injuries as a result of cuffs to her arms and legs. However, the victim confirmed to the court that the defendant assaulted her because she refused to have sex with him. She added that he cuffed her and even threw her to the ground. The unrepresented man, who has had no previous encounters with the law, was remanded to prison and the case was transferred to the Linden court for October 29.

Minibus driver on causing death by dangerous driving charge - placed on $200,000 bail

By Geeta Rampersaud A SIXTY-TWO-YEAROLD minibus driver on Friday was placed on $200,000 bail by Chief Magistrate Priya Sewnarine-Beharry after pleading not guilty for causing death by dangerous driving. Neville Corlette of Lot 198 Prospect, East Bank Demerara, denied that on September 30 at Prospect Public Road, he drove motor vehicle BMM 3699 in a manner dangerous to the public thereby causing the death of Verating Akee. Representing the defendant was attorney-atlaw, Mr. Paul Fung-a-Fat. He told the court that his client has been a driver for more

Defendant - Neville Corlette

than 39 years.

The counsel said on the day in question his client was proceeding south on the Prospect Public Road, when two other vehicles were on the road. He explained that a minibus pulled out in front of the defendant and he tried to swerve and at that time a pedestrian was running across when he was hit down. Meanwhile, Police Prosecutor Michael Grant told the court that on the day in question around 18:25hrs, the defendant’s vehicle was the only vehicle on the road. He added that the deceased was rushed to the Diamond Diagnostic Centre and was pronounced dead on arrival. The defence counsel requested that his client lodge his passport and report to the police. Corlette was however ordered to report every fortnight on Fridays. Prosecutor Grant did not oppose bail and the matter was transferred to the Providence court for October 24.

Climate Change and SIDS AS the end of 2014 draws near, it is a good time to remind ourselves that it is the United Nations designated “International Year of Small Island Developing States (SIDS). Its main objective is to put the spotlight on the plight of SIDS in the face of Climate Change. Small Island Developing States (SIDS) are islands of the Caribbean Sea and the Atlantic, Indian and Pacific Oceans. They are some of the most beautiful places on Earth, with

steadily to address it vigorously at all levels.

white sandy beaches, mountain ranges, luscious forests, beautiful historic ports and towns, and the most serene agricultural landscapes. They are also relatively remote, vulnerable to environmental challenges and generally small in size. Though not an island, Guyana is a part of SIDS, because it is a country that exhibits many of the characteristics and face similar vulnerabilities as this group of countries. As the year of SIDs draws to an end, we should be mindful that the threat of Climate Change still looms. We should therefore not make the mistake of putting this threat out of mind but instead work

exploring cost-effective opportunities for energy efficient homes and businesses and industries, and cleaner sources of energy e.g. solar and hydroelectric energy. Effective waste management can help to reduce our levels of GHG emission, so too, can increasing outdoor recreation activities to reduce the need for light and air conditioning. Alternative eco- friendly energy sources are already being employed in Guyana in our sugar industry. Solar technology is also available here and is finding increasing acceptance. Though effective solid waste management is at the forefront of society, there are still many challenges that must be overcome to achieve this goal. Nonetheless, actions are being taken in different quarters, for example, the Ministry of Local Government’s “Clean-up my Country Programme” and the Environmental Protection Agency’s Litter Warden’s Programme under the Ministry of Natural Resources and the Environment’s. Public Education, important for effective participation in waste management, is ongoing through various programmes, such as, Pick It Up Guyana, and others.

SIDS Doing its Part SIDS as a group is taking steps to implement a variety of solutions at hand to lower their GHG emissions. Importantly too, SIDS is focused on assessing its climate change risks and adaptation actions. To lower GHG emissions, SIDS is

Addressing Climate Change in the future

At the UN Conference of SIDS held in September, 2014, the gravity of the threat of Climate Change was well expressed in the words of Samoa’s Prime Minister: “Sympathy and pity will not provide solace nor halt the devastating impacts of climate change.” The root cause of climate change is the excessive emission of greenhouse gases (GHGs). These gases trap heat in the atmosphere and are causing global warning and consequently influencing climate change. The conference called for countries that are high emitters of GHGs to commit to reduce their emissions at the upcoming Climate Treaty in 2015 and to put an end to unsustainable consumption and production patterns. SIDS experiences the realities of climate change every day making it necessary for them constantly to conduct risk management related to it. As such it has been recognised that the solution is for SIDS to build positive relationships and work models based on the concept of sharing and community. Importantly, SIDS is raising their voices to demand their right to survival and to insist that high GHG emitting countries do their part to cut their emissions. We need our environment to survive. Let’s take steps to save our SIDS.

Air transport capacity this year has increased-Benn -additional competition will bring down prices MINISTER of Public Works, Robeson Benn has said that this year offers more capacity in terms of carriers and seat availability hence the additional competition will lead to better prices for the travelling public. “Over the years we have worked diligently to ensure additional airlift into and out of Guyana thus offering the passengers more choice of carriers to different destinations. We have been successful in that mission since during the last year we have seen new services being offered by Conviasa, Insel Air, COPA Airlines and Fly Jamaica. This sort of achievement within such a short period of time is unprecedented in the aviation industry.” Depending on their final destination, passengers wishing to travel to the United States of America can now do so via Caribbean Airlines (CAL), COPA Airlines, Insel Air, Suriname Airways (SLM) and Fly Jamaica. COPA, Fly Jamaica and Caribbean Airlines offer services to New York while SLM, COPA and CAL offer services Miami. In the case of Travel Span, Benn said his Ministry is in contact with its management and has been assured that all passengers with tickets will be fully refunded. Travel Span recently exited the market as a result of issues with its carrier. “I wish to remind that the Government of Guyana has always had an interest in protecting the consumer and for this reason we put in place an escrow account where new non-scheduled carriers are required to deposit monies which can be used to refund passengers if the airline suspends their operations.” Benn disclosed that the Ministry continues to pursue additional airlift to Guyana and only last week two of its senior officials attended the World Routes Conference where Minister meetings were held with several legacy and low cost carriers Robeson Benn who expressed an interest in offering services to the North American and European markets. “There is no doubt that Guyana is an attractive market for some of these carriers since a large number of Guyanese live in the Diaspora in North America and the United Kingdom. The fact that our economy has shown positive growth in the last eight years is an added bonus since there is a direct link between passenger growth and positive GDP in any market,” Minister Benn stated The airport expansion project, the minister added, is a prime selling point for potential investors. “I am therefore calling on Mr. Joseph Harmon and my colleagues in the Opposition to support Government in its effort to attract these new carriers by simply embracing our infrastructure developmental plan. The current runway and terminal do not have the capacity to accommodate long haul carriers from Europe and more economical aircraft to North America, and this is hampering our negotiations with these carriers.” Benn reiterated that “the aviation sector has grown by leaps and bounds in the past few years. There is still room for growth if we can set aside partisan politics and do what is right for Guyana and its people.”

and lofted Piyush Chawla and Kuldeep Yadav for six straight sixes. Nearly every time he left the crease, Raina deposited the ball over the boundary. He survived a stumping chance off Kuldeep on 78 and the bowler Yusuf Pathan put down a difficult, diving chance when Raina was on 88. But both those chances came after Raina had snatched the game from Knight Riders’ grasp.

I’ll be ...

lieve me. I am taking it one fight at a time and that would lead me to another world title. I am not going to put a time line on a world title or retiring. “I am feeling good, maybe in the best shape of my career and I am doing the right things. In my mind this is a recipe for success,” the veteran of 41 fights stated. Harris would leave Arizona on October 20th for Colorado where he would clash with Carrillo, a Mexican who has only been defeated once in 15 fights.

Knight Riders’ spinners, led by the absent Narine, had been instrumental in their march to the final but Raina never allowed them to settle down. Kuldeep, Chawla, Suryakumar Yadav and Yusuf went for a collective 1 for 137 in 13.3 overs. Raina’s hundred came off 59 balls, and he put on 118 with Brendon McCullum in 12.2 overs. The New Zealand captain was not in great touch, but swept his way to a vital 39 off 30. MS Dhoni promoted himself and hit the winning runs, but his more vital contribution had come earlier, when he won the toss and chose to field. With the dew starting to come down and both captains understandably wanting to chase. Dhoni had said at the toss that the pitch looked better than previous Bangalore surfaces in the tournament. It proved to be a nice batting surface, and only got better for the batsmen as the bowlers progressively lost bite with the dew.

Gambhir and Robin Uthappa put on 91 in under 11 overs. Uthappa’s timing was terrific yet again but Gambhir stepped up after having had a lean tournament. Pulling, cutting, steering and slogging boundaries, Gambhir raced to 80 off 52 before holing out off Ravindra Jadeja in the 17th over. Negi, playing only his second match of the tournament, had already removed Uthappa and Jacques Kallis in successive overs, deceiving both with plenty of flight and turn. With Dwayne Bravo taken for 18 runs in the 16th over and Ashish Nehra going for 20 in the 18th, Dhoni handed the 19th to Negi with R Ashwin and Mohit Sharma having an over left each. Negi gave away two runs, including a wide, in the over, and took out Manish Pandey, Ryan ten Doeshcate and Suryakumar. Yusuf took 19 more off Nehra in the 20th to make it 62 off the last five, but Raina was unstoppable in the night. (ESPN Cricinfo)

Late City goals cut Chelsea advantage, Liverpool win By Tom Hayward

LONDON, (Reuters) - Yaya Toure and Sergio Aguero struck late as Premier League champions Manchester City climbed within two points of table-topping Chelsea thanks to a patient 2-0 victory at a resolute Aston Villa yesterday. Toure curled home a beautifully placed low shot in the 82nd minute before Aguero thundered in a second six minutes later after the visitors spurned a host of chances in what had been a dominant yet wasteful display. City climbed to second with 14 points, one point ahead of third-placed Southampton and two behind Chelsea who host Arsenal in a London derby today. Adam Lallana and Jordan Henderson scored as Liverpool registered their first league win since August by grinding out a hard-fought 2-1 victory over West Bromwich Albion at Anfield. Papiss Cisse struck twice to ease the growing pressure on under-fire New-

attacks, chances were in regular supply, though their Bosnia forward Edin Dzeko was guilty of wasting three clear opportunities in the opening period. The second half began at a frantic paste with Aguero hitting the post before Kieran Richardson was let down by a poor touch as he raced clear at the opposite end.

As a goalless draw beckoned Toure, criticised in recent months for a series of anonymous performances, was granted space on the edge of the area and dispatched a precise shot. Aguero doubled the lead minutes later with a powerful shot from the edge of the area as City recorded their first league clean sheet since the opening day of the campaign. “It is a fantastic win. Full credit to Villa for the way they played but in the second half we did the job,” Toure told Sky Sports. “The most important thing for me is to try my best. I need to work harder and continue

A reinvigorated West Brom were rarely troubled before England international Lallana gave the hosts the lead on the stroke of halftime. The 26-year-old exchanged passes with England team mate Henderson before dispatching a sharp finish low into the bottom corner for his first Liverpool goal. West Brom started the second half brightly and restored parity after 56 min-

utes through Saido Berahino’s fifth league goal of the season. The 21-year-old coolly converted his penalty after he was felled by Dejan Lovren, despite the infringement appearing to occur outside the area. The visitors continued to take the game to Liverpool but fell behind again after Henderson collected Raheem Sterling’s pass and finished smartly. “It was vital (we won). We needed to find a way to win today against a side that is really high on confidence,” Rodgers told Sky Sports. “An excellent result on the back of a disappointing European result. Their penalty was outside the box but the players showed their character and resilience to keep going and find a winner. It was an outstanding win for us.”

INDIA’s selectors have gambled on teenage chinaman bowler Kuldeep Yadav, who has had an impressive Champions League T20 campaign, in the 14-man squad for the first three ODIs against West Indies. The major changes in the squad came in the spin department, with lead spinner R Ashwin rested, Amit Mishra returning and legspinner Karn Sharma missing out. Uncapped teenage wicketkeeper-batsman Sanju Samson who was part of the limited-overs squad in England has been left out, as have allrounder Stuart Binny and quick bowler Dhawal Kulkarni. The India call-up marks a stunning rise for Kuldeep, who is yet to play a domestic one-dayer and whose entire senior experience consists of 8 Twenty20 matches. He was part of India’s squad for the Under-19 World Cup earlier this year, but it was his six wickets at an economy rate of 6.62

(Reuters) - Pakistan all rounder Muhammad Hafeez has been ruled out of the limited-overs series against Australia due to a hand injury he sustained during a practice game. The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) said Hafeez required five stitches after he split the webbing between the thumb and index finger of his left hand on Friday. “The physio has suggested a minimum of two weeks rest which rules him out of the one-day series,” a spokesman said. “The tour management committee has decided to send Hafeez back to Pakistan since there was no point in retaining him on the tour.” The selectors announced that uncapped opener Sami Aslam and left-arm spinner Zulfiqar Babar will replace Hafeez in the squad for todays one-off Twenty20 and the subsequent three one-day internationals against Australia in the UAE.

Persaud makes successful defence of Laparkan title ROBIN Persaud stopped the clock at one hour 17 minutes 53.82 seconds to make a successful defence of the feature 35-lap event of the 10th Annual Laparkan sponsored 11-race cycle programme at the National Park yesterday. From a field of 14 starters for the feature event, Persaud along with Christopher Holder, Paul Cho-Wee-Nam and Mark Harris made a break after eight laps were completed and were never challenged thereafter. The quartet interchanged the lead, sharing the sprint prizes that were up for grabs in the process and nearing the conclusion of the final lap, Harris jumped the other three, but as they turned into the homestretch, Holder responded followed by ChoWee-Nam and Persaud on the outside, but it was the

Roberts and Ramsingh shine for Media XI

INSPIRED by some incisive medium fast bowling from their skipper Calvin Roberts, backed later by some belligerent hitting from opener John Ramsingh, the Guyana Media XI demolished Guyana Floodlights Softball Cricket Association by nine wickets in a T20 fixture at the Demerara Cricket Club ground last Friday night. Winning the toss and opting to take first strike, Floodlights, who were rocked early on in their innings by the new ball pair of Ishaka Jackman and Jermaine Neblette, were not allowed to recover by Roberts who ended with 3 for 18, as they reached 104 for 6. Their final total was due mainly to the batting of the veteran Wayne Jones who topscored with 42 (3x6, 3x4) after being given a life by Roberts at short cover before he had scored off the bowling of Ravi Persaud, and Arvinda Gainda with 29 (2x4, 1x6). The duo added 72 for the fifth wicket, after Jackman and Neblett rocked their team’s top order batting to send back Patrick Khan (01) and Khalid Baksh (02), while Roberts sent back Ricky Deonarine (00) and

- demolishes Floodlights by 9 wickets Persaud accounted for Reaz Hussain (05), leaving Floodlights on 26 for 4. After he was given the life, Jones hit Persaud for six and four in one over, while Gainda, who opened his account with a magnificent square cut through point off Roberts, proceeded to hit a free hit from the same bowler in his next over, back over his head and onto Crown Street for the first maximum of the night. Keon Blades was introduced into the attack in the

18th over and Jones attacked him like a raging bull, hitting him back over long on and long off for maximum, followed by an exquisite extra cover drive for 4, before Roberts removed Gainda with the first ball of the 19th over to break what looked like a threatening partnership. He followed it up with the wicket of Richard Persaud (00) two balls later, but it was the final success for the Media XI as Jones and Rabindra Singh played out the remaining deliveries and

final over from Zaheer Mohammed, to see their side to their final total. Jackman, Neblett and Ravi Persaud took a wicket each to support Roberts in the bowling department for the Media XI, whose openers in Ramsingh and Imran Sharukhan added 73 for the first wicket, with both batsmen hitting boundaries at will. It took the bowling of Gainda to separate the pair, removing Ramsingh who was caught at backward sqaureleg, but at the time, it was not if the Media XI would

have won the contest, but what the margin of victory will be. Their wicketkeeper/batsman Daniel Singh joined Khan and steered them home to 105 for 1 off 11 overs, with Khan unbeaten on 23 (3x4, 1x6) and Singh 19 which included two fours. At the brief presentation ceremony that followed, Ramsingh received accolades after he was adjudged Best Fielder, Batsman and Man- of- theMatch, with Roberts taking home the Best Bowler trophy on the winner’s side. For the losers, Jones was named Best Fielder and

Batsman respectively, while Gainda, who took the solitary wicket to fall for the Media XI, was named Best Bowler, with the trophies and balls for the game being sponsored by Ramesh Sunich of Trophy Stall. Prior to the presentation, Deonarine thanked the Media XI for the wonderful showing, even as he felt his team did well to score over 100 and also take an opposition wicket, while Roberts thanked Floodlights for hosting his side, congratulated his players on the win and readily accepted the rematch challenge from the Floodlights Boys.

Narine will be back with a bang - Richardson …off-spinner withdrawn from India tour

RICHIE Richardson, the West Indies team manager, is confident Sunil Narine will “come back with a bang” following the controversy over the off-spinner’s bowling action during the Champions League Twenty20. Narine was reported twice for a suspect action and was barred from bowling in the Champions League final, and he was subsequently withdrawn from the India tour by the West Indies Cricket Board. “Nobody wants it to happen to anybody. It’s unfortunate,” Richardson

Sunil Narine

said on the sidelines of West Indies’ training session in Mumbai on Saturday. “He has just got to go home, think about it and come back. And I know that that’s his approach, that’s his attitude. He would obviously be disappointed but he is not down. Knowing the character that he is, he is not going to let that get him down. He is going to go back and work. He is going to come back with a bang. And he is going to come back an even better bowler. These things will happen and it’s how well you handle these crises

that proves the strength of character that you have. I know he is a very strong individual. Might seem very easy-going, very quiet but deep down he is a very confident, strong individual.” Richardson stressed that the controversy had not affected the morale of the West Indies team. The side lost its first tour match to India A by nine wickets on Friday and will play their second practice game on Sunday. “We can’t do nothing about that. We just have to focus on what we have to do. We were positive even without him that we can play well against India and beat India. That’s the attitude we have got to adapt,”

Richardson said. “Things happen in life that you have no control over, the most important thing for you is to always pick yourself up and go forward. Sometimes when you lose a major player, other players dig deeper, somebody else comes to the fore. And that’s what we want to see.” When asked if the decision to withdraw Narine was taken with the 2015 World Cup in sight, Richardson said he was not involved in the selection of the team: “I am just the manager of the team so whatever the team they give me, I manage. I am not involved in that process so I can’t comment.”

Strauss fears for Test cricket ANDREW Strauss, the former England captain, and an increasingly influential voice in cricket administration, has issued dire warnings about the survival of Test cricket, predicting that Twenty20 could dominate the landscape within 20 years. Strauss, who since his retirement has been appointed to the cricket committees of the ICC and MCC as well as sitting on the Middlesex management board, lays part of the blame for Test cricket’s potential ills on the

restructuring of the ICC. The deal, which if TV rights deals come to fruition could bring India a ten-fold increase in income, with England and Australia also benefiting financially, will in Strauss’ view condemn Test cricket to a growing number of mismatches which will quicken its decline. Strauss’ pessimistic view - particularly notable as it comes from one of the game’s avowed traditionalists - comes in an updated paperback edition of his autobiography, Driving Ambition

which is published today. “India can argue that they bring the most money into the game, and thus deserve more out of the precious ICC broadcasting rights, but skewing the distribution of the three boards that are already the most financially secure can only create a situation in which the rich get richer and the poor poorer,” Strauss writes. “With only ten teams playing Test cricket and four of those already struggling to stay competitive, the risk of the game degenerating to the

Andrew Strauss

extent that the result of many Test series is a foregone conclusion is both high and real.”

Strauss paints a bleak picture of the Test game in which he built his reputation, leading England in 50 of his 100 Tests and gaining a reputation as one of the finest man managers in England’s history. “I have to admit that I become more and more concerned about the plight of Test cricket every year,” Strauss admits. “Watching a Test match between the West Indies and New Zealand in an empty stadium with no more than a handful of spectators in attendance sends

out warning signals. Seeing that the viewing figures for a county Twenty20 game rival those for a Test match adds to the growing perception that Test cricket is in crisis. “Part of the new ICC restructure provides a Test fund so that some of the smaller nations can play each other in Test series even though they aren’t financially viable. While I definitely welcome this news, I can’t help feeling that we have already reached the tipping point as far as Test cricket is concerned.

Pepsi Hornets unbeaten on day one of GRFU 7’s League

THE Guyana Rugby Football Union (GRFU) 7’s League got underway yesterday in the National Park and Pepsi Hornets, led by Ryan Gonsalves, was undefeated in their two games played. In their first encounter, the Hornets defeated the Yamaha Caribs 12-7 then returned to destroy the Guyana Defence Force (GDF) 22 – 0. Troy Bascombe

Theodore Henry and Jason Tyrell both scored tires while national captain Ryan Gonsalves made good of his conversions to

sink Theodore Henry and the Caribs. Henry, one of Guyana’s most recognised player, did not receive any scoring support from his men and his try and conversion just was not enough to register a victory. Blaise Bailey scored a hat-trick of tries and another (try) from Gonsalves did the damage against the Army who were making a comeback after missing the

Banks DIH 7’s owing to injuries to their premier players. The league continues on Saturday at the same venue In other matches played: yesterday: University of Guyana (UG) Wolves Def. GDF 31 – 5 Yamaha Caribs Def. UG Wolves 29 – 7 GDF beat Guyana Police Force (GPF) 20 –5

Petra Organisation/COURTS Pee Wee Football tournament

Defending Champions St Pius open title defence with a 0 – 0 draw THE Petra Organisation’s 4th COURTS Pee Wee football tournament kicked off yesterday at the Thirst Park Ground, with defending Champions St Pius Primary being held to an entertaining 0 – 0 draw against J.E Burnham Primary School. Played under the sweltering heat, parents and teachers were certainly kept amused through the 30 minutes contest. All eyes were on St Pius Primary since the champions had stated leading up to the tournament, that nothing can stand in their way as they attempt to hold on to the coveted title. J.E Burnham Primary, despite St Pius squandering several easy goal chances, was able to hold the ‘champs’ to a scoreless draw and will now hope to better their performance next week. Meanwhile, in what was by far one of the best games on the lengthy opening day schedule, Darron Nyles single handedly carried Stella Maris Primary on his shoulder to a 2 – 1 win over former champions Marian Academy. Marian Academy won the accolade in 2012 but Niles, the ‘One Man Army’ was too good for the entire private institution.

COURTS Marketing Manager Pernell Cummings officially kicked off the 4th Annual Pee Wee Football tournament The diminutive but very skillful player scored in the 22nd and 24th minute to give his school the win, while Alaister Phyll scored Marian Academy’s lone goal. Meanwhile, COURTS Marketing Manager Pernell Cummings said that his company is elated to once again be on board with Petra Organisation to host the event and conveyed their commitment to having the tournament as long as possible. Below are the complete results from yesterday’s matches:

`Jackie Chan’, Primo, Benfield in hot water National striker Gregory `Jackie Chan’ Richardson and two other members of the Alpha United Football Club have found themselves at odds with the club’sexecutive following recent incidences of indiscipline while in the USA. Richardson, fellow striker Manasseh `Ziggy’ Primo and midfielder Anthony `Natural ‘ Benfield are to face imminent bans for abandoning the team just before its final match of the CONCACAF Champions League in Portland, Oregon last month. A source close to the team related that all three players defied instructions given by Coach Wayne `Wiggy’ Dover, left the hotel hours before the game against Portland Timbers to go shopping. The trio could not be found when the team left for the venue of the match but surfaced at the match venue long after

-bans imminent

the team arrived. Their absence forced Dover to commence the game without them and left Alpha’s President Odinga Lumumba frothing at the mouth. The nonappearance of Richardson and company seemingly impacted heavily on Alpha United who lost the game 6-0 and has now put them in hot water. Primo had scored twice in Alpha’s final warm up game against Caledonia AIA in Trinidad three days earlier. Richardson had several brushes with the administration of the club since moving from Pele Football Club approximately two years ago, but his most recent infraction is the straw that broke the camel’s back, the source added. “Jackie Chan has not

been performing up to scratch lately. It is felt that he is past his prime. With that being said, he is also being viewed as not being the best possible influence for younger players and has several disciplinary issues pending,” the source added. “It is expected that hefty bans would be slapped on the three players for their actions in the USA. This will also serve as a deterrent to others.” In February 2009, Richardson became the first Guyanese to land a contract in the USA’s Major League Soccer (MLS) after signing with the Colorado Rapids. He stayed with the club for four months before being waived to Carolina Rail Hawks in June.

Raina century leads CSK to CLT20 title

The Chennai Super Kings players celebrate with the Champions League trophy after defeating KKR in the CLT20 Final in Bangalore. SURESH Raina bossed a Kolkata Knight Riders

attack without the banned Sunil Narine for his third

T20 century to lead Chennai Super Kings to their second Champions League T20 title. Raina’s relentless hitting, especially against spin, made light of a target of 181, which was built on the back

of Gautam Gambhir’s 80. Knight Riders looked good for around 200 after a 91-run opening partnership but leftarm spinner Pawan Negi’s 5 for 22 held them back. Given the way Raina blasted six after six, even 200 might not have been enough. (Scores: Chennai Super Kings 185 for 2 (Raina 109*, McCullum 39) beat Kolkata Knight Riders 180 for 6 (Gambhir 80, Uthappa 39, Negi 5-22) by eight wickets. The defeat also halted IPL champions Knight Riders’ winning streak at 14, an Indian record and second only to Sialkot Stallions. Super Kings lost Dwayne Smith in the first over of the chase and it was all Raina after that. Almost everything Raina attempted came off. The drives raced in the gaps through the off side. The pulls disappeared behind square. The strike was turned over as if on autopilot. But it was the sixes that stood out. Raina stepped out

Suresh Raina’s hundred powered Chennai Super Kings to their second Champions League title. The left-hander launched eight sixes during his 62-ball 109.

I’ll be world champion again-`Vicious’ Vivian Harris GUYANESE boxer Vivian Harris is planning to put more meaning to his sobriquet `Vicious’ as the bell rings to signal commencement to the twilight of his career. The 36-year-old puncher is scheduled to battle Raul Carrillo on Friday October 24 for the USNBC welterweight title. The winner of the bout is guaranteed a World Boxing Council top ten ranking. Speaking with Chronicle Sport yesterday from his training camp in Phoenix, Arizona, Harris said that he is determined and ready to win another world title and plans putting away one opponent at a time. “Right now I am at a stage where I enter the ring and do what I want to do from round

one.

Vivian Harris

Yes I am older, but I am also stronger, quicker and wiser,” the former WBA junior welterweight champion said. Harris was crowned champion in October 2002 following a second round Technical Knock Out of champion Diosbelys Hurtado in Huston, Texas. He

would have three successful defences but was then dethroned by little known Colombian Carlos Maussa via seventh round knockout. The talented Guyanese would then secure three victories before unsuccessfully challenging Englishman Junior Witter for the WBC junior welterweight title. There after Harris’ career plunged into a tail spin with him losing six of the next nine fights over a four year period. He would resurface on victory valley in 2013 and has had a three fight winning streak since. “God has resurrected my career so that I can become world champion again.

I am still vicious but a lot has changed. This is not the Vivian Harris of eight years ago. I have lost a few fights and those loses have helped me a great deal. They are incentives to my career and have assisted in becoming a much better fighter. I am now focused all year round rather than just around fights time. God has put me here to be a champion,” the father of three declared. According to Harris, there is no timeline for him winning another title or retiring from the sport. “Let me put it this way, age is a number. Just ask Bernard Hopkins if you don’t be-
