Dr Luncheon at Tucville rally ...

APNU+AFC ‘no real alternative’ to PPP ––just a stark reminder of PNC of old

THE alternative that the Combined Opposition of A Partnership for National Unity and the Alliance For Change (APNU+AFC) offers is “no real alternative,” and is a stark reminder of the People’s National Congress (PNC). Those were the sentiments expressed by People’s Progressive Party/Civic (PPP/C) stalwart, Dr Roger Luncheon, who kicked the support of his motorized chair and took the podium to deliver a few ‘kicks’ elsewhere. “The race (May 11 elections contest) is between the PNC and the PPP,” he said. The ruling administration’s Cabinet Secretary was one of three speakers at that party’s most recent public meeting, held last night at Turning Point in Tucville, Georgetown. That meeting drew a sizeable gathering, to whom Dr Luncheon stressed that there is “no real difference” between the APNU+AFC alliance and the PNC, even as he pointed to that alliance’s policies – “or lack of policies”; the members who constitute the grouping; and the manner in which

the alliance “treats” the Guyanese people, given the anti-development postures of its constituent parts in the last three years. “They offer no real alternative at the upcoming polls!” Dr Luncheon warned. The May 11 general and regional elections were called after three years of political gridlock and after attempts to move past this deterrent had failed, Dr Luncheon explained. He noted that development is a continuous effort that the PPP/C remains committed to, and he pointed out that the development story of Guyana is one that cannot be told without mention of the ruling PPP/C. “Our (Guyana’s and the PPP/C’s) stories are the same,” Dr Luncheon said. On that note, he underscored that progress, peace and prosperity demand leadership, which the PPP/C has demonstrated in successive administrations since 1992. “The PPP/C has led by example,” Dr Luncheon said, and added that, in leading, the Party has attracted supporters and followers, many of whom have come on

PPP General Secretary, Clement Rohee, stressing the differences between PPP and APNU+AFC at last evening’s meeting

PPP/C stalwart, Dr Roger Luncheon, makes clear that APNU+AFC is no different from PNC board to support the PPP/C and serve the Guyanese people. “We have attracted men and women of calibre and commitment,” he said. These efforts, Dr Luncheon added, have resulted in record achievements that have gone towards supporting improvement in the lives of the Guyanese people. “We must now look to the future,” he said. Going forward, Dr Luncheon assured that the PPP/C will, as it has done, remain true to the ideals of its founder and former president, Dr Cheddi Jagan. “It is a philosophy that is rooted in the fact that Guyana is a developing country,” he posited. REBUILDING A BROKEN HOUSE General Secretary of the PPP, Mr Clement Rohee, also energized the gathering with a message of his own, made lively by quips that were digs at the political opposition. He emphatically noted that the development of Guyana and its progress to date must be seen as the rebuilding of a house that had been “broken” by the PNC.

Rohee warned of the dangers that characterise the PNC’s leadership, which includes members that aim to deceive the Guyanese people. The “makeover” that is APNU+AFC is a deceptive ploy, he said, and it is advanced by “great pretenders” who are most focused on a grab at power, as opposed to the people of Guyana. “They politically scraven! They lickrish!” Rohee quipped. The PPP/C General Secretary explained that the membership of the alliance comprises disenchanted persons who have left the PPP because of their want of power. “They say this is the mother of all elections, but don’t forget the mother of all political parties is the PPP,” he said. “The PNC come out from the PPP belly.” Rohee made it clear that the PPP/C is battle ready, and battle scarred, and still represents a force to be reckoned with in the political arena. Rohee made it clear that, all considered, the years prior to 1992 must See page 3

parties seem to be at odds on key issues. Evidence of trouble in the camp is Coalition Leader David Granger’s strange disclosure recently that he can only speak for his faction of the alliance, this being APNU. He this week told the business community at an event hosted by the Guyana Manufacturers and Services Association

I speak only for the Partnership and for myself.” This coming from Granger is somewhat unusual, given that just last weekend, the Coalition presented a united front for its Linden rally, announcing the proposed implementation of several planned initiatives, should they succeed in being elected to office at the upcoming

Additionally, other speakers, including Human Services and Social Security Minister Jennifer Webster, underscored the impact of the PPP/C’s social programmes in particular, which have ‘delivered’ for the Guyanese people. The message by the end of the evening was clear: The choice of the Guyanese people is clear – a vision

for greater peace, progress and prosperity, as well as a proven track record that characterises the PPP/C, or the PNC and the leadership of the same people who supported the ‘Burnhamite’ era. In addition to Tucville, the ruling party held meetings in other parts of Region 4 (Demerara/ Mahaica), villages in Region 3 (Essequibo Islands/West Demerara), Region 5 (Mahaica/Bebrice) and Region 6 (East Berbice/ Corentyne). Those meetings have been the tactic employed by the incumbent PPP for decades as a means of maintaining and nurturing support at the grassroots level. (Vanessa Narine)

trusted, once the elections are over? It also raises the issue of whether the Coalition would include AFC’s agenda if elected, or is just using the AFC to attract voters. Several opinions have surfaced since the announcement of the Coalition about its sustainability in light of past experience with the PNC-TUF coalition which was short-lived. Earlier this week, TUF long-time member Murtland Williams highlighted the distrust of the Coalition, noting that its leaders are using this as a vehicle to gain political power. However, at a recent press conference, Granger dismissed the comparison of the two coalitions, and noted that the APNU+AFC Coalition seeks to bring ideological conformity. Yet, a week later, he cannot speak for the AFC, even though he’s leader of the Coalition, and told Lindeners that the two parties have been together on issues for three years now.

#63 Beach armed robbery a first ––‘B’ Division Commander DEPUTY Commander ‘B’ Division, Hugh Denhert, said that the incident in which three persons were robbed at gunpoint of valuables including cash at the # 63 Beach, Corentyne, Berbice, on Wednesday afternoon,was the first of its kind. He stated that they have had minor incidents but never a gunpoint robbery. Denhert added that the group were at ease in each other’s company when they heard an explosion and looked up and observed two men, who were armed with a gun and a knife.They were told to be still,were tied up and relieved of their jewellery, cash, and cellphones by the men,who then casually walked off. Denhert said a probe is under way but no arrests have been made as yet.


4 General and Regional Elections 2015…

PSC requests US assistance for Carter Center mission THE Private Sector Commission, as part of its ongoing quest to ensure that the May 2015 Elections will be free and fair, has written to US Secretary of State John Kerry requesting his assistance to have the Carter Center field a full observer mission for the elections. The Commission explained that this step was taken after extensive consultation with stakeholders and analysis of recent political developments had indicated that adequate independent and competent observers are needed to ensure

that the elections are free and fair and free from fear, and that the results are free from contention and accepted by all competing parties. The Commission has also made clear its full confidence in the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM) to efficiently and effectively carry out their mandate; but it is important for the confidence of all stakeholders to have the work of GECOM independently observed and their outputs validated by respected third parties.

Lethem/Georgetown Road necessary for Guyana to become transshipment port, says Stanley Ming By Tajeram Mohabir PROMINENT businessman and former leader of the Reform component of the People’s National Congress Reform (PNCR) party, Mr Stanley Ming, has said the road from Lethem to Port Georgetown, which links Guyana with Brazil, is necessary if Guyana is to become a trans-shipment port. Speaking about an ambitious transformation plan, “Guyana 2030”, which he had crafted with retired Major General Joe Singh; University of Guyana Lecturer Dr Eric Phillips and former PNC Executive Supriya Singh-Bodden, Ming said the project was requested by Brazil. And Brazil really needs it, he said, pointing out that one of that country’s major cities, Manaus, home to some of the world’s major manufacturers, including Yamaha, Suzuki and Mercedes Benz, is many miles away from the mouth of the Amazon River. “They don’t make the goods, they manufacture purely for Brazil. A lot of it is exported to the rest of the world,” he said, pointing out that the challenge is to get the goods from Manaus to the Atlantic Ocean. With no direct road link, goods are transported through the Amazon River by barge in a journey that takes nine

Stanley Ming days, he disclosed. According to the former PNCR member, Brazil understandably has been behind Guyana for decades to build the roadway to an Atlantic Port in Guyana, be it Georgetown, Essequibo or Berbice, whichever is more suitable. This, he said, will enable Brazil’s products to reach the Atlantic Ocean from Manaus in 24 hours, as against nine days. It will save Guyana’s southern neighbour eight days of financial charges, he

said, and that is a significant reduction by any means. Speaking with journalists gathered at the New Thriving Restaurant on Main Street, Georgetown during resuscitation of the Guyana Press Association (GPA) lecture series, Ming disclosed that because of Guyana’s procrastinating, Brazil approached Venezuela and the latter agreed to build a “perfect highway”. It starts at Manaus, goes to Boa Vista and comes close to Bom Fim at the Lethem border, but it then going north, into Venezuela, leading to the Caribbean Sea. Along the way, Ming said, there is a free zone area where Brazilians and Venezuelans trade openly. Brazil, he contended, wanted to get to the Atlantic Ocean or the Caribbean Sea, and had constructed a bridge to navigate the hurdle posed by the Orinoco River. The bridge was constructed at a cost of US$431 million, and it allows for traffic from Manaus all the way to the Caribbean Sea, but the journey takes more than 48 hours. A path through Guyana, he said, would take half that time. He pointed out that Brazil is still interested in

the mega-project. Another project Brazil is still interested in, Ming disclosed, is the hydro project it proposed to Guyana some years ago. Ming said that, unlike the rest of Brazil, the northern State of Roraima does not have a regular supply of electricity, but is supplied on a rotational basis. He said that apart from offering to build and finance the road from Lethem to Georgetown, Brazil had, in 2009, also proposed to build two hydro power stations here; one producing 2000 megawatts of electricity and the other producing 700 megawatts. The intention, Ming claimed, was to provide all the power Guyana needs, which is some 300 kilowatts, with Brazil buying the excess for the State of Roraima, to ensure it receives a more stable electricity supply. According to him, Brazil is still interested in funding the project. Ming pointed out that the future of Guyana lies in the hands of her youths, who make up 65 per cent of the population. They have the power to press the politicos to make things happen, he said.

Ex-prison officer remanded for trafficking narcotics A prison officer was on Friday morning remanded to prison after being slapped with charges for trafficking narcotics and being in possession of prohibited articles in the Camp Street Prison. Clayton Thomas, 44, appeared at the Georgetown Magistrates’ Court before Chief Magistrate Priya Sewnarine-Beharry. Thomas, who reportedly had been a prison officer for over a year, pleaded not guilty to the charge which read that on March 17 at the Camp Street Prison, Georgetown, he had in his possession 22 grams of cannabis for the purpose of trafficking. The court was told that on the same day, it is alleged that he took 16 packs of Bristol cigarettes into the prison. The man also denied the charge. Police Prosecutor Michael Grant the court that on the

day in question, acting on information, prison officers went to Thomas’s office, conducted a search on him and found a small bag in his pants crotch; a search of the bag yielded leaves, seeds and stems suspected to be from the plant cannabis sativa. During the search on Thomas, the ranks also found two packs of cigarettes in his shoe and 14 more packs on various parts of his body. The defendant was then arrested and charged for the said offence. Grant objected to bail on grounds of the nature, gravity and prevalence of the offence and the magistrate upheld the prosecution’s objection; Thomas was therefore refused bail and will make his next court appearance on April 7 before city Magistrate Judy Latchman.

Luncheon welcomes Granger’s endorsement of Amaila Falls hydropower project

“A rose by any other name is still a rose,” quipped Cabinet Secretary, Dr Roger Luncheon, when asked to respond to the promises of Brigadier (rtd) David Granger pertaining to the Amaila Falls Hydropower project. The presidential candidate for the alliance of A Partnership for National Unity (APNU) and the Alliance For Change (AFC) speaking to GMSA stakeholders on Tuesday said, “We will also develop hydroelectric power within a project which we have identified as the Potaro Basin Development Authority, which could embody the present Amaila Falls.” Dr Luncheon at his news conference held on Wednesday at the Office of the President, welcomed APNU’s endorsement of renewable energy as a future prospect, particularly given the Opposition’s disposition on the matter in the 10th Parliament. On July 18, 2013, the combined Opposition in Parliament defeated the Hydroelectric Power (Amendment) Bill in the National Assembly, and in August the Government took the legislation back to the House and received the AFC’s support, butAPNU voted down the bill and motion. “I am happy that the renewable energy agenda of the APNU does indeed find favour with [the] Amaila Falls Hydropower Project,” Dr Luncheon said. PLUS FOR INVESTORS He highlighted that APNU’s endorsement of advancing renewable energy will also find favour with investors. The cabinet secretary said, “It is to my mind some convergence [of support] and if

you recall Blackstone and Sithe Global held out that when the Government and the political Opposition were at one, they will feel

Cabinet Secretary, Dr Roger Luncheon more confident in moving forward with the investment. “The PPP/C and the major Opposition party seem now to be saying we are in favour of going ahead with Amaila Falls. It is a plus where investors are concerned. The potential benefits of a more stable and reliable source of energy through the advancement of hydroelectricity was also targeted by the International Monetary Fund (IMF), last

December, as an area for continued focus. The IMF has been joined by several other regional bodies that have underlined the benefits of hydropower in Guyana. Also, last September, the Prime Minister of Antigua and Barbuda, Gaston Browne, at the Caribbean Community’s (CARICOM) 35th meeting of the Region’s Heads, underscored the renewable energy potential of Guyana. The President of the Caribbean Development Bank (CDB), Warren Smith, at the Bank’s 44th annual meeting in the latter part of May 2014, noted the possibility of Guyana being able to export surplus hydropower to the Caribbean, as well as the potential benefits for the local economy. Chairman of the Private Sector Commission (PSC), Ramesh Persaud, has also been vocal on the issue and recently called for the development of Guyana’s hydropower capacity, particularly given that cheap energy supply can increase Guyana’s competitiveness in several emerging sectors, since it is more economical to establish “energy farms” as compared to paying “significant costs” for fossil fuels. Other major organisations, including the Organization of American States (OAS), have publicly stressed the need for a shift in the energy paradigm to initiatives that are more sustainable. 2015 START Asked about the move forward for the project, Dr Luncheon gave the assurance that construction will begin before the end of the year, confident that the ruling party

will be returned to office and push its development agenda. “The President’s statement is so informative and so definitive it bears repeating. We anticipate before the end of the year, work to start on Amaila,” he said. Development partners’ have indicated their continued support based on confidence in the project’s merits. This expression of support follows last October’s promised transfer of an accumulated US$80M in payments from Norway, US$45M released in 2013 and US$35M released last October, to the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), which would be used as Guyana’s equity contribution to the project. The transfer of the monies to the IDB follows a clear indication of support for the project from the Bank last August, when the organisation made it clear that it was “still on board” for the Amaila Falls Hydropower Project. The hydropower project is touted to be able to provide Guyanese with a cheaper, reliable and sustainable electricity supply. It involves the construction of a hydropower plant in the area of West-Central Guyana, where the Amaila and Kuribrong Rivers meet. Electricity produced there will be delivered to Georgetown and Guyana’s second largest town, Linden. The AFHP is anticipated to result in substantial savings to the nation’s coffers, particularly in terms of foreign exchange for the purchase of heavy fuel oil, as well as create many opportunities for jobs, among other advances.

Colonel Wilbert Lee calls it a day

COMMAND of one of the main bases of the Guyana Defence Force (GDF), Base Camp Stephenson BC(S) on Wednesday,March 18 changed hands from Colonel Wilbert Lee to Lieutenant Colonel Terry Benn. Lee, who has served the Force for 36 years, officially retires on July 22. Addressing his farewell parade held at the Hard Square at BC(S),Col Lee recollected enlisting without the full knowledge of his parents back in 1979 as a private soldier and then moved on to successfully complete the Standard Officers Course Number 14. According to a release, he noted that the changes to his rank were indicative of his growth and development in the army during his tenure.

Lee told those gathered that he was raised in poverty, but with a mother who embraced a brighter future for him and his siblings. “My mother ensured that our poverty did not become a matter of public ridicule by any act of dishonesty or lawlessness, but instead she taught us the value of hard work, thrift, dedication and that godliness with contentment is great gain and the fact that a good education was the escape hatch from poverty and decadence. Thanks to my mother, I escaped,” he stated. As he continued his very moving speech, Lee said his mother was unwavering in her support, even when he was not successful and she encouraged the scholastic achievements he later attained with the nu-

merous opportunities that were provided by the GDF. Listing and thanking every service member who has been critical throughout his career, Lee emphasised that all their inputs as well as the challenges he has overcome, exemplified and inculcated the attributes that were necessary for his professional development in his formative years. Colonel Terry Benn, who has already taken up his new appointment

EDITORIAL

Guyana

Students have become statistics of opportunism THE political opportunists in the land do not care how destructive their stratagems are when they are lobbying against the Government, and it is to their shame that they have no remorse in using the nation’s children in advancing their self-serving agendas. There are systems and processes in place to address problems in the education sector. However, students are currently being encouraged to participate in a lawless culture of taking to the streets and shutting down schools, by no less than their own parents, at the behest of politicians, without attempting recourse to the proper processes to make determinations and addressing problematic issues. This confrontational attitude overspills into their adult lives where they do not resort to peaceful conflict-resolution, but often with dire and even tragic consequences. Teachers, who are supposed to be role models, most often exhibit appalling anti-social and abhorrent tendencies and are oftentimes themselves devoid of the etiquette necessary to frame civilised behaviour. This is the sad reality at President College, over which the PNC considers they have jurisdictional rights, with some of their supporters on the staff consistent-

ly creating situations of discontent and contention without any attempt to allow management to direct the policies and programmes, and address the issues without vitriolic interference. But President College is serving the purpose for which it is intended, and any unprejudiced analysis of the school and its functions would testify to this. Granted, everything is not perfect. There are problems; but even homes have problems. However, no institution that is subject to political strife can be run to optimum capacity and achieve to its maximum potential. President College is a home-awayfrom-home with warm-hearted, caring house parents who are very loyal to the institution that they serve, and very loving to their charges. They ensure that the children’s welfare is placed paramount; and while they maintain discipline, they expend affection in equal measure. The institution which is often depicted as a horror-house in some sections of the media is instead a place of great happiness, which provides the children with the requisite environment to enhance their overall development as good human beings above all, as well as the premier scholars that they are. A while ago, Chronicle spoke to

housefather, Mr. John Forde, who was incensed when he spoke about the false stories that he continually sees in the local media about the institution that he serves and loves. At that time there had been stories that the school was without potable water, but Mr. Forde had pointed out the trestles with tanks for every story in the dorm and the man responsible for maintenance in the facility, who was in the process of pumping water to refill the tanks. He provided the assurance that the pump attendant ensures that every area is provided with water. Mrs Shurcina Hope-Hinds, the Administrator of House Services and Student Welfare, had at that time endorsed what Mr. Forde said. She said that, like any building or institution, even private homes, there is some wear and tear over the years, in some locations more than in others, but that there is always an attempt to rectify these whenever they occur, except that in some instances bureaucracy may delay the process somewhat. While admitting that, as in any educational institution – even homes, there are problem areas, but she is convinced that there could be problem-resolution without making the children suffer and traumatising them when they most need

support – which is the time when they are writing examinations. She feels that the children’s needs should take priority over any other consideration. She said that, like in every home with siblings, they would tease each other, but that the loyalty, camaraderie and affection between batch mates was very strong, and that the love and shared experiences in President’s College, more than in any institution, is bridging the racial and other divides beautifully because, while children are encouraged to celebrate their different cultures and religions, they all share in each other’s celebrations and have learnt to respect each other for the individual person that each one is, and to bond accordingly, with lifelong and enduring friendships forged between students hailing from one end of the country to another. The doomsayers and naysayers will continue to have their say to make themselves relevant in the socio-political fray, but those whom are entrusted with the nation’s children in the various institutions of care and learning under the auspices of the current Government know the truth and should be commended instead of having to face the constant carping and unjustified criticisms of the opportunistic Opposition and hostile media cabal.

The utter folly of Stabroek News and Dr. Tarron Khemraj THE fallacies that abound in the entry, “Majority won’t vote for the PPP/C-poll suggests”, are too many to comment on, but for Mr. Tarron Khemraj and company, who always find the ‘doings’ of Stabroek News most convenient, I do have a few things to say. First, we all need to accept the reality of the politics in Guyana. It is played out basically in two factions. The sordid pre-1992 game was kept alive, for a long time, only because there was nothing like a ‘fair and free’ election. The turn took place in 1992, and it is easy to note, via succeeding elections, that the PPP/C is really the people’s choice. This cannot be disputed, as the party has never lost a single election in Guyana, irrespective of who the leader happened to be - from the late Dr. Cheddi Jagan to the incumbent Mr. Donald Ramotar. I note that the article is saying that “a poll of over 1,500 Guyanese, last year, suggests that almost 50% will vote against the incumbent Donald Ramotar administration at the upcoming May 11th polls.” HAH and LOL!

The political climate has changed drastically since that time. In fact, over the last six months or so, Guyanese have seen an unbelievable side of the Opposition. First, the Opposition forced a prorogation and then could not handle it. The two major forces therein, A Partnership for National Unity (APNU) and the Alliance For Change (AFC) wanted to press home a no—confidence motion and we all know this meant that fresh elections would have ensued. Now the prorogation could have facilitated some meaningful dialogues, but these two parties simply defied President Ramotar, who true to the constitution, called for the elections, and which we are about to go into. We have in Guyana a most unyielding Opposition, bent on simply ‘opposing’ and not amenable to even further the progress of some important projects and bills, in Guyana, and for all Guyanese (Amaila, Cheddi Jagan International Airport expansion, Specialty Hospital, passing the AML/CTF Bill). This poll is obsolete in many ways, and I cannot fathom what Stabroek News and Mr. Tarron

Khemraj are getting out of this entry. Maybe they are jointly trying to fool the electorate, or it is an attempt to engender some fear. Things have changed and no wonder we are seeing a kind of desperate reaction from the coalition. This survey then is not relevant. I point out too that the People’s National Congress reform (PNC/R) has again shown its true colours - seeming fixing of its internal voting at the party’s last congress, the falling out of the Lindenerrs because of the high-handedness of Mr. David Granger, and the mistreatment and relegation of Ms. Vanessa Kissoon. I add here too that out of AFC, Guyanese are seeing some strange and suspicious things. We have Mr. Moses Nagamootoo’s embracing of APNU, really the PNC, and what this shows is that he is a man with no moral scruples. For years, he fought this vile force of the PNC, and now he is embracing all that it did and now stands for. His desire/lust/dying crave for personal power has destroyed his moral fabric. He did promise the coalition some 11,000 Indian votes, but all of a sudden,

I am noticing a return to the PPP/C of those who were behind Mr. Nagamootoo. Let’s note too that the AFC itself is feeling the terrible aftermath of this Nagamootoo betrayal. At least three top leaders have exited, and in doing so, they have exposed the crass and suspicious nature of even Khemraj Ramjattan. So, what the economist Dr. Tarron Khemraj reported from his findings in “Development Watch” and passed on to Stabroek News cannot be valid now. The whole thing, coming now, after so much has happened, smacks of some form of evil. I close by reminding all Guyanese that up to now, the coalition has offered no plan on how to make Guyana move forward, as it has been doing for quite some time now. All that the people are getting are things related to ‘who will be what, and who will get what.’ To the Stabroek News and Dr. Tarron Khemraj, I say that Guyanese know better. ATTIYA BAKSH

Absurdities in anti-rice agenda by Opposition elements THE Government of Guyana has no apologies to make for its continued commitment and support to the rice industry and to the farmers and other stakeholders in the industry. Whether it was in the late 1950s to the middle of the 1960s or since 1992, the rice industry has flourished under successive PPP governments. Throughout the PPP’s period in Government, the rice industry has been exclusively a private sector industry. We have been deliberate in supporting and investing to facilitate the continued growth of this private sector industry. There has been no deviation from this truth. The PPP Government is proud to do so and we have no apologies. We are committed to continued and expanding support to the rice industry as a genuine contributor to Guyana’s economy. If there is one thing that the Guyanese people can be certain of, it is that the PPP Government will continue to support this industry in the same manner we have in the past and we will continue to seek ways to expand our support. We reject Kaieteur News using the successes of the rice industry to promote an anti-government agenda. We note with deep interest and regret the threats made to the industry by APNU+AFC and their collaborators. We note that the Kaieteur News is one of the collaborators and they even fabricate their own lies. On Tuesday, March 17, the Kaieteur News in a bold headline stated that Ramon Gaskin claimed that the thriving rice industry is benefiting Government associates and friends. I checked the article to see who are these Government associates and friends, but the article simply stated that Gaskin castigated the Government for providing support to a private business. We do not deny supporting the rice industry. But is Kaieteur News asserting that this support is because we are supporting associates and friends? If this means that the farmers are our associates and friends, then we are guilty. We challenge the Kaieteur News to tell us who these associates and friends are. But this is another way the Kaieteur News twists stories to suit their anti-government agenda. They spin stories in bold, misleading headlines, with a deliberate intention – fool as many citizens as possible. Anyone reading the article would find that the misleading headline was totally not linked to the story and mischievous. Each day they provide further proof that they are not a newspaper, but a propaganda machine. Similarly, the APNU+AFC Voodoo Policies continued to be exposed through their anti-rice agenda. When people like Carl Greenidge criticise investment by the Government in the rice industry because it is a private sector business and because it is successful, he demonstrates his continued lack of understanding of the industry. No wonder the PNC destroyed and crippled the rice industry in the 1980s. The criticisms from other cohorts of the PNC and the AFC underline their voodoo strategy for economic growth in Guyana. Voodoo economics destroyed Guyana in the 1970s and 1980s, and this is what the PNC (APNU+AFC) offers Guyana for the future. We note that it was Greenidge in 1989 who gave away most of the Government’s rice infrastructure to one man and none of those facilities are functioning today. The PNC’s failed engagement in the rice industry in the 1970s and 1980s stands as a shameful legacy today.

According to Greenidge, the investment by the PPP Government in the rice industry is wrong. In the 2014 budget, they voted against the allocation for the rice industry, arguing that the rice industry is successful and does not need any support. One of the architects of the strategy that crippled the rice industry in the 1980s dares to tell us what we should do, while conceding that the industry is thriving and successful. The APNU+AFC spokesman gives us all an insight into their plans for the rice industry. The only time the rice industry failed was when the PNC was the Government. With their foolish positions at this time, it is clear that, any time they have control of the Government, the rice industry will fail again. Let me immediately address the lies they shamelessly tell. LIE NUMBER 1: FAILURE TO FIND MARKETS: He and the others are unable to dispute the real possibility of 1M tonnes of paddy, equivalent to about 650,000 tons of rice, in 2015. This will represent four years of successive record-breaking production in Guyana. In 2014, production was 635,238 rice or 974,000 tonnes of paddy. These truths tell of a very successful story. But they try to distract from this truth by saying that while the industry is successful in production, we cannot find markets. They accuse us of intervention into a private business, but on the other hand, they accuse us of not finding markets. The truth is that in 2014, Guyana exported 501,208 tonnes of rice. This was a record export for Guyana. We added new destinations and expanded existing markets. We sell more to the Caribbean and Europe, the traditional markets. Within the European market, we have added new destinations. We continue to sustain the Venezuelan market which came into effect from 2009. In 2010, the Venezuelan market was 70% of local production. In 2014, the Venezuelan market, which maintained its volume, was only about 31% of production. But Guyana has also expanded into non-traditional markets. Countries such as Belize, Panama, Nicaragua and Guatemala have been added to the export destinations for Guyana’s rice. As we speak, a larger market in North America, and new markets in Central America and Africa are being finalised, with a potential to exceed 600,000 tonnes in 2015. The Government actively seeks new markets for the rice industry and we allow the private sector to sustain and expand these markets. That is how a government facilitates a private sector business. The PPP sees this as a positive partnership. LIE NUMBER 2: MILLERS ARE STUCK WITH STOCKS THEY CANNOT SELL: They misinform and lie to the Guyanese people that millers have stocks that remain stuck in storage and cannot take in new stock from the new harvesting that has just started. I challenge them to list the millers who are stuck with excess stocks in storage. Most millers have no rice or paddy at this time. There are some millers with residual stocks. The truth is that there was a carryover of about 140,000 tonnes of paddy into 2015. Carryover stocks are normal for the rice industry. During the period of late December and the middle of March when there is no rice harvesting, this carryover stock is used for local consumption for food, for industry and for export. More than 100,000 tonnes of the carryover stocks have been used for export. So while some milers may have residual

stocks in hand, a normal industry practice, we challenge Greenidge and the others to give us the list of millers with stocks that take up their total storage and, therefore, affect their buying for 2015. LIE NUMBER 3: GOVERNMENT GIVES MILLERS LOW PRICES AND KEEP MOST OF THE MONEY: Firstly, they claim this is private sector business. Indeed, the private sector is responsible for exporting most of Guyana’s rice. The Government plays a facilitating role only for the Venezuela market and recently for a part of the Panama market. In terms of production, this is about 33%. Thus, the private sector is directly responsible for the local and export sales accounting for 67% of Guyana’s production and the other 33% with Government’s partnership. The price the GRDB pays to millers account for almost 100% of the price after expenses are deducted. These expenses include costs for shipping, testing and charges associated with ports in Guyana and Venezuela and to pay for logistics for teams from Venezuela and Panama. The prices paid to farmers are not determined by government. We wish we could, but these prices represent private transactions. It is an untruth that millers pay farmers $40,000 per tonne for paddy of normal quality. While this might be true for sub-standard paddy, the price is higher than this for paddy that meets export quality. They claim that we get $180,000 per tonne for paddy. Let these doomsayers give us that price and demonstrate they are willing to help. We are aware that no country or no international buyer pays that price. So we challenge them to name the buyer or the country that pays $180,000 ($US900) per tonne for paddy. The Government does not get such a price and we are aware that no miller gets this price. Therefore, we challenge Greenidge and the others to tell us who pay this price. If they do not want to give us the names of the buyers who pay that price, then let Mr. Turbane Doerga and Jinnah Rahman sell rice and paddy to these buyers. Nothing stops them from doing so. Getting those prices, they can pay farmers a high price. Overall, prices paid to farmers in 2010 when prices were about $4,000 per bag were dictated by the Venezuela market which accounted for 70% of production. Today, the Venezuelan market accounts for only about 31% of the production and in 2015 will account for below 30% of production. Prices are now dictated by the larger, lower-priced markets LIE NUMBER 4: WE OFFER NO SUPPORT OR TOO MUCH SUPPORT: For either of these charges, they lie. We concede that one of the problems the industry faces is that millers pay farmers late. The same people who say that we should not intervene in a private sector-run industry, say that we should pay the farmers. When we intervene to allow timely payments to farmers, they accuse us of being too supportive of the rice industry because most rice farmers support the PPP. The PPP Government continues to urge millers to pay farmers fairly and on time. We have intervened with a revolving arrangement that totals about $5B in 2014 to ensure that farmers are paid. With the new harvesting starting, more than 99% of payments by millers to farmers have been completed. Without the Government intervening, many farmers would still be owed by millers. These millers, themselves have about $10B outstanding from international buyers who usually pay three to

six months later. We will continue to provide that support as bridging funding to ensure that farmers are paid. LIE NUMBER 5: GOVERNMENT DOES NOT HAVE ANY BUSINESS IN THE RICE INDUSTRY: This is an overt threat to the rice industry that should make every farmer and miller and all other stakeholders cringe. Is this their policy for the rice industry? Are they saying that they will halt all support to the rice industry? Government invests in the mining industry. We have not heard a whimper from APNU+AFC. What about Government’s investments in providing electricity for almost free in Linden? The PPP Government provides bridge financing to ensure that farmers do not have to wait beyond one crop for their payments. We would like to ensure even shorter waiting time for payments and we will shorten that time further in 2015. We offer no apologies for facilitating the industry in this manner. The ones who criticise us for intervening in this private sector are charlatans in sheep’s clothing who when they are with the rice farmers promise them the impossible, but when the PPP Government provides support, they object. Different messages for different audiences. Let them tell the rice farmers that this is a private sector business and that government should stay totally out. The Government’s only intervention is to help farmers. We do not engage in whom the farmers sell to and we do not engage in what the millers do. But we do intervene when millers are delinquent in making payments. We help in other ways, such as research and training: We have no ambiguity about government’s role. We have invested in research and training of farmers. We have facilitated the industry by ensuring Guyana’s rice industry renew and re-energise itself through new varieties. The latter now amount to 14 different varieties that have been brought to the fields in commercial quantities, leading to higher yields and greater disease resistance. We have worked with farmers and our own research centre to provide adequate amounts of high- quality seeds for the industry. Our training programmes, through field schools, have led to better agronomic practices. These also lead to higher yields. Overall, yields which were stagnated in the 1980s at about 1 to 1.5 tonnes per ha now stand at about 5.5 tonnes per ha. We have also been ensuring access to more affordable fertiliser. In 2013 and 2014, we brought in at least 7,000 tonnes of fertiliser and modulated the price in the private sector. From between $8,000 to $10,000 per bag, we brought it closer to $5,000 per bag. In 2015, we have made arrangements for 14,000 tonnes of fertiliser. On any given day, the Opposition comes out with absurdities as they continue their efforts to destroy the rice industry. This is what they did in the 1980s when the rice industry was crippled. Today as rice flourish, they are trying different means to destroy the industry. They misinform and spread absolute lies in their efforts to negatively impact the industry. We are proud of the rice industry. We stand with the rice farmers and with other stakeholders. We will continue to expand our support and we dare the APNU+AFC to come clean and tell the farmers that we do too much for them. DR. LESLIE RAMSAMMY

Canada/Guyana relationship characterised by success --Canadian High Commissioner

CANADA’s relationship with Guyana is characterized by successful partnerships that have been mutually beneficial to both countries and have helped to deliver upon their shared priorities. So said Her Excellency Dr. Nicole Giles, High Commissioner of Canada, as she addressed guests at a reception to celebrate the Canada Fund for Local Initiatives (CFLI) 2014-2015 Projects in Guyana on Thursday evening. The venue was the Official Residence of the High Commissioner of Canada in Bel Air Gardens, Georgetown. The Canadian High Commissioner said evidence of the foregoing can be seen in the partnerships such as the Canadian Fund for Local Initiatives -- being celebrated on that occasion, and honouring four successful local partners. Dr. Giles outlined that the CFLI is based on the principle of local ownership of projects, to ensure sustainability and maximized benefits to local stakeholders. To this end, small awards are provided by the Government of Canada to successful partners to execute projects that respond to specific local needs, she said. On this momentous occasion, four partners in Guyana, having been successful in securing funding under the 20142015 Canada Fund for Local Initiatives, were being recognized. The successful partners were: * Help and Shelter, and Rainbow House: for a Sexual Violence Awareness Project; * The Guyana Women Miners’ Organization: to refurbish a safe house for victims of trafficking in persons; * The Ministry of Home Affairs: to purchase two-way radios and video cameras for law enforcement officers to carry-out investigations; * The Guyana Elections Commission: to help strengthen elections management in Guyana through the provision of laptops. The winners were selected based on the proposed contributions of their projects to their shared priority areas. These are: advancing democracy, preventing sexual violence, strengthening economic governance (including building free markets and an effective enabling environment for business), and strengthening security institutions. Dr. Giles said the Americas is a foreign policy priority for

Canada, and it is driven by a vision of a more prosperous, secure and democratic hemisphere. Further, the Government of Canada delivers upon this vision by working towards three main goals, which are: increasing mutual economic opportunity; strengthening institutions, and fostering lasting relationships. She said, too, that Canada is promoting freedom, democracy, human rights, and the rule of law by strengthening professionalism and accountability of public institutions throughout the Americas.

CAPACITY BUILDING Alluding to Canada’s capacity building efforts, Dr Giles said these are helping institutions to become more transparent and responsive to the needs of citizens. She added: “Canada’s security cooperation is helping to build effective and efficient security systems, with institutions that citizens can trust and with which international partners can collaborate.” Of Canada’s relations with Guyana, the High Commissioner said Canada remains committed to working with all stakeholders, including the partners being celebrated; GECOM, all political parties; the private sector, and civil society.

Dr. Nicole Giles, High Commissioner of Canada addressing the gathering

GECOM The CFLI has provided GECOM with over 100 laptops, which will further strengthen elections management in Guyana, the High Commissioner said. Noting that GECOM has been a longstanding partner of the Government of Canada, the High Commissioner expressed confidence that GECOM has the ability to deliver free and fair elections on May 11, 2015. She said, too, that Canada is hopeful that the upcoming electoral process would be a catalyst for constructive debate to address the issues that are facing Guyana. “Canada remains committed to working with all stakeholders, including GECOM, all political parties, the private sector and civil society to support free, fair and peaceful elections,” Dr. Giles reiterated. Ministry of Home Affairs This year, Canada partnered with the Ministry of Home Affairs on an Investigative Techniques training course delivered by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. This project was funded

by Canada’s Anti-Crime Capacity Building Programme (ACCBP), and was the first bilateral ACCBP project to be delivered in Guyana. The training enhanced the investigative techniques of the local law enforcement officers, and Dr. Giles said the CFLI Project that was designed to be complementary provided support to purchase the radios and cameras needed to operationalize the training. HELP AND SHELTER AND GWMO The help from CFLI is geared towards building capacity to improve the socio-economic conditions and promote the protection of the rights of women, children, youth and other vulnerable groups. Canada’s support to the Guyana Women Miners’ Organisation is helping to provide a safe space for victims of trafficking in persons to be in the process of rebuilding their lives. Statistics published by UN Women, sadly, demonstrate that the fight to prevent sexual violence and to curtail trafficking in persons is far from over, Dr. Giles said, citing chilling statistics to support this claim. In regard to the Help and Shelter Rainbow House Sexual Violence Awareness project, she said a four-month advocacy campaign had poignantly addressed the issue of sexual violence. The campaign targeted several groups, including members of the lesbian, gay, bi-sexual and transgender community; service providers; and men and women from all walks of life. Accordingly, Gr. Giles affirmed: “It is an honour to work with the Guyana Elections Commission, the Ministry of Home Affairs, Help and Shelter, the Guyana Women Miners’ Organization, and all other stakeholders towards achieving our common goals of preventing sexual violence, strengthening the rule of law, and promoting democratic governance.” Meanwhile, reporting on their respective projects were: Ms. Luana Falconer, past president of the Rotary Club of Stabroek, and Ms Denise Dias on the Sexual Violence Awareness Project. Among the invitees were Government ministers and Parliamentarians; Members of the Opposition; Members of the Diplomatic Corps; members of the Private Sector and Civil Society, the partners being honoured, and other distinguished guests.

RODNEY’S DEATH: AN ENIGMA BEING ANSWERED Special Report on the Rodney Commission of Inquiry by Shaun Michael Samaroo

President Ramotar in service of national justice OUR nation’s healing springs out of the wellspring of national justice, and President Donald Ramotar holds the golden chalice of our history for showing the courage, good conscience and humane decency to convene the Rodney Commission to deliver national justice to the Guyanese nation. Justice in the suspected political assassination of Guyana’s brilliant international scholar, Dr Walter Rodney, eluded our nation for 34 years. After decades of socio-economic and human rights violations during the 1970s and 1980s, the Government of Guyana owes the Guyanese people answers for what happened to us, for why we plunged to such a low point that a bomb could explode in our capital city, causing the instant demise of one of the greatest Guyanese the world has known, just because this leader sought justice and a free and fair

{

What kind of a people are we, to have sat on this cold case for so long? How could we face ourselves with any authentic truth with this nasty stain on our conscience? How could we, for 34 years, so harden our hearts and stifle our good conscience? A few people pushed and fought for justice for Dr Rodney. These included the late journalist, Sharief Khan; the late Editor-in-Chief of the Stabroek News, David de Caires; late President Dr Cheddi Jagan; former President Bharrat Jagdeo; some leaders of the Working People’s Alliance (WPA); and Dr Rodney’s family, including his widow, Dr Patricia Rodney, his brother Donald Rodney, and his children. The Rodney family migrated after the tragedy of that night of June 13, 1980, and we gave up on them as a nation, with many people among us preferring

ident Ramotar announced the Commission’s convening, the voices opposing it started a loud, vociferous cry against its operation. First, critics claimed the Commission was a political ploy of the ruling party, and now critics claim the Commission’s testimonies and evidence of witnesses would “incite” tensions during this elections season. CRITICISM AND OPPOSITION The criticisms and opposition to the Commission aim at one thing: to stop the probe, to halt testimonies that show up damning evidence that the regime of the People’s National Congress (PNC) operated a dictatorship that harassed and violated the basic human rights of the Guyanese people, and that may have caused Dr Rodney’s demise, and they seek to

In providing the platform for this professional, impartial examination of the darkest period of our history - a time when Dr Rodney suffered the worst fate possible for a human being; when a United States fugitive and murder suspect led a cult under protection of the government of the day; when Guyana became notorious for the ugly Jonestown massacre; when Guyanese suffered untold human rights violations, even in availability of basic food; when creepy and disturbing political plots saw State agencies spying on Guyanese citizens - in that act, President Ramotar gave us back our sense of national dignity, acted with outstanding statesmanship to erase our greatest national shame, and positioned us among the world’s nations that practise good conscience and national justice’

playing field for the Guyanese people. PROFOUND SHAME Dr Rodney cared only that the Guyanese people know justice in choosing their Government, through free and fair elections. He dedicated his life to that cause. He lived and breathed for justice to the poor, disenfranchised and marginalised, choosing to be an activist in Africa, the Caribbean and his homeland. We stand head bowed in profound shame that we denied his family and our nation the justice we sought with strenuous effort and abysmal frustration after his demise, waiting 34 years to convene this historic Presidential Commission.

we just forgot about the Rodney case. After President Ramotar showed good conscience and courage to open the case to deliver national justice to our nation, those who oppose such truths being revealed started a campaign to align the integrity of the Commission. The Guyanese nation should, with one accord and one voice, rise up to applaud President Ramotar for his courage and good conscience, in the face of heavy opposition, to cause the Walter Rodney Commission of Inquiry to conduct its probe. Detractors work with strenuous effort to stop the Commission from carrying out its mandate, and to prevent the findings from being publicized. Since Pres-

stop evidence from being documented. One may sympathise with the detractors who slam the Commission and malign the professional integrity of the noble Commissioners. Who wants their nasty violations of our nation’s human rights to be exposed and documented as historical record? These folks would of course want the Commission to cease its work, or to keep its testimonies and evidences from the public domain. In Chairman Sir Richard Cheltenham of Barbados, Jacqueline Samuel-Brown of Jamaica, and Seenauth Jairam of Trinidad and Tobago, President Ramotar and his hard-working Attorney General and Minister of Legal Affairs, Anil Nandlall, appointed Caribbean jurists of

President Donald Ramotar outstanding accomplishments, with great experience and learned contribution to the Caribbean’s justice system. Head of the Commission Secretariat, Hugh Denbow, acts with impartial and professional ethics in his work. But instead of allowing the Commission to carry on its work with peace and calm, in its quest to deliver President Ramotar’s mandate for national justice to the Guyanese people, and for psychological closure to the family of Dr Rodney, the critics and detractors seem determined to try to derail and disrupt the easy flow of the process. The Commission generated heated debate and mixed reaction when it commenced last year June, with critics claiming its work looks at 34 years ago, and this is “long ago”. But this is not just the righting of a historical wrong. Rather, it’s the healing of the Guyanese soul, the closing of a deep psychological scar on the Guyanese psyche, and the vindication of the role of Dr Rodney and the movement he led, the Working People’s Alliance (WPA), in the cause of national justice for the Guyanese nation. Nowhere in the Commission’s work do we see the ruling People’s Progressive Party (PPP) extolled or praised, even though this party and See page 10

‘Theocracy Party’ throws weight behind APNU+AFC coalition

THE Healing of the Nation Theocracy Party (HNTP) has thrown its support behind the A Partnership for National Unity + Alliance For Change (APNU + AFC) coalition, signalling its intention to contest the General and Regional Elections on May 11 as part of the coalition. Chairman of the party, Alfred Park, during a telephone interview with the Guyana Chronicle disclosed that, “We must put our heads together and let the country move forward as one, and this is the perfect opportunity to tackle this vision.” Park added that, “Our country must be holistically represented; therefore [we are] combining strengths with APNU + AFC so that everyone’s rights will be equally represented. When asked how he feels their support base would respond to this decision, Park said that “The supporters have been supporting our moves, as we would be able to stand and represent

our needs our concerns on behalf of the people.” He also indicated that the HNTP was not promised any parliamentary seats for coalescing with the APNU/AFC. “We did not get any promise; we will be meeting with Brother Harmon on Tuesday,” he said. One of the party’s main selling points is the legalisation of marijuana, which the political Opposition has already said it is open to discussing. The party, when it was founded, had said it hopes to sincerely break away from an ethnic divide and provide a balance between Guyana’s two main political parties – a united (APNU/AFC) and the ruling People’s Progressive Party/ Civic (PPP/C). Nevertheless, the leadership of the party has since reconsidered that stance and says it will be rendering its full support to the APNU/AFC coalition.

its leaders, including current Home Affairs Minister Clement Rohee, and Dr Cheddi Jagan, fought with patriotic dedication alongside Dr Rodney. Nowhere in the Commission’s work do we see politics at play, as most of the testimonies name the PNC, with the current Opposition alliance, A Partnership for National Unity (APNU) never mentioned. So it’s rather disingenuous for critics of the Commission to claim this is politics at play. MAN OF THE HOUR President Ramotar stands as the man of the hour, the hero of our nation, for his Presidency delivering this vital healing of the nation’s soul. In the Commission, the President shows his leadership and character, in the face of strenuous criticism, to accomplish what no other Guyanese leader before has delivered to our nation. The Commission acts in the Presidential cause of national justice, and those who claim that it’s a political ploy to incite Dr Walter Rodney tensions in the society resort to devious and deceitful means to hamper and delay the Commission’s noble cause. The Guyanese nation would applaud President Ramotar for his historical initiative to convene the Commission, in him taking leadership in healing of our national soul and the delivering of national justice to the Guyanese people. In that, we show our maturity, good conscience and heart of care as a progressive 21st century nation, a people who would leave no stone unturned in healing ourselves of our historical maladies, even if it means exposing those who prefer their dark sinister plots disappearing in the dustbin of unexamined history. In providing the platform for this professional, impartial examination of the darkest period of our history - a time when Dr Rodney suffered the worst fate possible for a human being; when a United States fugitive and murder suspect led a cult under protection of the government of the day; when Guyana became notorious for the ugly Jonestown massacre; when Guyanese suffered untold human rights violations, even in availability of basic food; when creepy and disturbing political plots saw State agencies spying on Guyanese citizens in that act, President Ramotar gave us back our sense of national dignity, acted with outstanding statesmanship to erase our greatest national shame, and positioned us among the world’s nations that practise good conscience and national justice.

President tells Region 3...

Guyana has come a long way, despite many setbacks --that he’s extremely proud of its performance

President Donald Ramotar speaking to the residents of Region 3

“OUR COUNTRY, over the years under the PPP/C government, has been developing fairly rapidly, despite the fact that we had to contend with a national and international financial crisis that had impacted our region.” The foregoing statement was proudly communicated by President Donald Ramotar to residents of Region 3 (Essequibo Islands-West Demerara) when he addressed the Fourth Road Project (West Coast Demerara Road Improvement) opening ceremony in the environs of the Vreed-enHoop ferry stelling. He noted that due to positive growth in the country’s infrastructure, “we are able to see positive growth

in our economy.” “I am sure you will hear that infrastructure is important for social and economic development of any country. Our country, over the years under the PPP/C government, has been developing fairly rapidly, despite the fact that we had to contend with a national and international financial crisis that had impacted our region,” President Ramotar explained. The Head of State explained that even with this impact on the Region, because of conscious and calculated investment strategies, the country was still able to grow. “But our country continued over the last nine years to have positive economic

growth in this same period of time,” he said. He noted that when the PPP/C government took over the country in 1992, “we had to repair the 28 years of bad infrastructure; and now that that is over, we need to take our country to a much higher level of development. It is now clear that the infrastructure we have is not now sufficient to take us into the future, and this is why these investments are very important for the development of Guyana.” Speaking on developments that are to come, the President explained: “Already, we are working on; and before the end of the year, all the feasibility studies will be finished, so

that we can look at the West Bank Demerara road and make it into a highway as well, and to look at Canal Number 1 and 2 roads and have them fixed and bring them to highway type of status.” The President was at pains to explain how much spending is done on sea defences in the country as well, and he said that a significant amount is slated to be spent in Region 3, to improve the current situation. The President stressed that one of the things his administration would be focusing on is quality. “Quality of our work is extremely important! We believe (that) because of the rapid growth of this region, that transportation here in now becoming more inadequate, and the need for a new crossing of the Demerara River is becoming important”, he said. He said he had observed this, and assured residents that “the Government is beginning to study the possibility of a new bridge across the Demerara River;

and hopefully, that would come soon, before the next five years.” This, he said, would help to further integrate Region 3 with Georgetown. Addressing food security, an important factor in any country, President Ramotar declared that Region 3 “is a very important region as far as the production of food in Guyana is concerned; and that, he said, “is the reason we are looking at putting in new roads, where more persons will have access to huge areas of land which we will be able to use and diversify the agriculture that we have.” He noted that Guyana is well known across the Caribbean for its production of rice and sugar, and he also urged persons to broaden the base of Guyana’s production and diversify into other aspects of food production. “We need to immunise our economy, and we have gone a far way; and we can do this by broadening the

base of our economy”, he declared as he noted that “we see great possibilities in the coconut industry -- that it can develop into being as strong and as powerful as rice and sugar”. The Head of State disclosed his expectation that Guyana would very soon join the international club of oil and gas-producing countries. “As we speak, Exxon Mobile has started drilling on our coast, and I feel extremely optimistic that we are on the threshold of becoming an oil and gas-producing country,” the President declared. President Ramotar also expressed that Government is partnering with the Private Sector, and this partnership is in the construction of a new Call Centre at Tuschen, EBE, which he said would employ over 900 persons. He said another call centre is also being established at Enmore, East Coast Demerara. (Rebecca Ganesh)

GECOM expects to hear from Carter Centre, UNDP next week REPORTS on meetings between the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM), the Carter Centre and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) are expected next week. “I expect to hear from them next week,” GECOM Chairman, Dr Steve Surujbally said in a telephone interview with the Guyana Chronicle yesterday. He noted that GECOM’s engagements with the two groups were different in nature. “The Carter Centre expressed their satisfaction

with the positive developments that have been made, and felt that it would be good for them to return to Guyana. They are prepared to come back with as many as 30 people. Securing financing is the next step for them,” He said. Dr Surujbally added that the assessment undertaken by the Carter Centre related to the conduciveness of the existing climate for the hosting of elections, the electoral environment, and their impressions after speaking with political parties. “They were not here in

2011, and they feel that it would be good for them to come back and be a part of the electoral process; which, according to them, moved from turbulence, violence and mayhem to a peaceful process,” he said. Dr Surujbally said a Carter Centre review of the advances in Guyana’s electoral processes could find the country being used as an example of how societies evolve. Turning his attention to the UNDP, Dr Surujbally explained that while this

group’s meeting was not related to having election observers in Guyana, it did focus on supporting GECOM. He said the UNDP’s needs assessment focused on communication needs within the context of civic voter education and on ensuring that the election results are delivered to the Guyanese people as soon as possible. AHEAD OF THE GAME Questioned about the Commission’s progress on other fronts, Dr Surujbally noted that GECOM is ahead of the

game, relative to its work plan. He cited the availability of the Revised List of Electors (RLE) before the estimated time as one example of this. The GECOM Chairman added that there is coverage of polling day staff, and the number of private residences used as polling stations has been reduced. “We have managed to bring down the number of private residences used as polling stations to 166 of 2,295 polling stations in total,” he said. Meanwhile, ahead of

Nomination Day, April 7, Dr Surujbally noted that the Commission has also met with several stakeholders in the electoral process. “We met with some stakeholders, and they are all impressed. They have said they are convinced of GECOM’s ability to run the elections. I was pleased with their endorsement,” he said. Dr Surujbally also assured that, moving forward, all stakeholders in the electoral process would be kept involved. (Vanessa Narine)

Citizens concerned about stopping at police roadblocks --in light of bandits posing as policemen

CITIZENS are expressing grave concerns about their safety and security in light of a new development unfolding, wherein bandits are donning outfits that pass them off as members of the Guyana Police Force, thereby facilitating their committing armed robbery on unsuspecting members of the public. At about 21:00 hrs on March 19, 2015, at Grove, Mahaicony, East Coast Demerara, three men dressed in police uniform flagged down a canter vehicle with a driver and two porters of the Royal Chicken entity, a business operating at Garden of Eden, EBD, and relieved them of an undisclosed sum of cash. The armed robbery took place at a very dismal area. The workers were heading to their place of work when they encountered the men dressed in police uniforms. They were taken to a dam, where the robbers tied them up, broke into a canister, and departed with the day’s sales. The employees were left tied up in the locked tray of the truck; but, after some time, they managed to free themselves and report the crime to the police. Crime Chief Leslie James yesterday said a probe has been launched to verify the identity of the robbers. Following the incident, the police in ‘C’ Division held a closed door meeting with Commander Christopher Griffith and sub-divisional officers to iron out a clear format for police to use in conducting road block exercises on the East Coast corridor, among other things. On August 2, 2014, at about 11hrs, two bandits posing as cops stopped a vehicle in which Lekraj Gopaul of Hague, West Coast Demerara; his wife, private school teacher Latchmin Gopaul; and taxi driver Parmanand Teekaram of Cornelia Ida, WCD were travelling, and eventually relieved them of local and foreign currencies, and jewellery and cell phones they had in their possession. The trio was on their way to the airport to go on vacation overseas. This brazen act of banditry occurred in the vicinity of Land of Canaan, East Bank Demerara; and after the bandits had identified themselves as policemen investigating an accident, they took their victims to a dismal area at Soesdyke, EBD, where they tied up and robbed them of cash and jewellery amounting to millions. A week before that incident, Pastor Sewnauth Poonalall of the Good Hope Missionary Baptist Church was gun-butted and robbed shortly after returning from the airport with some overseas guests.

Commonwealth team, Legal Affairs Ministry discuss technical assistance THE possibility of technical assistance from the Commonwealth Secretariat, among other issues, was discussed during a meeting with the Secretariat’s Commonwealth Fund for Technical Cooperation (CFTC) and a local team yesterday. The Commonwealth body met with Attorney-General Anil Nandlall and his team from at the Ministry of Legal Affairs. These other matters on the table included continuation of the assistance being rendered by the Secretariat to the team at the Attorney-General’s Chambers currently engaged in correcting omissions and deficiencies in the revision and consolidation of the Laws of Guyana. The Commonwealth team expressed their satisfaction with the progress made so far. Additionally, the preparation of a complete Index of the Laws of Guyana was discussed as an important component of this initiative. The Commonwealth team pledged their continued support to this component. The difficulties faced by Guyana in not consolidating and revising its laws in

a timely manner are not unique to Guyana as indicated by Mr. Malby. In fact, the laws of most countries are not current by several years. The Attorney-General also requested the team from the Commonwealth Secretariat to offer assistance in the compilation and publication of Law Reports of Guyana for the years 2008 to 2014, inclusive. Technical assistance was also promised for this exercise. The Commonwealth team commended the attorney general and his hard-working staff for the progress they have made and for the initiatives upon which they intend to embark. Representing the CFTC were Head of Law Development, Rule of Law Division, Mr. Steve Malby; and Technical Assistance Adviser, Technical Assistance Unit, Ms. Pauline Campbell. The Attorney-General’s team included Justice Zuru, Ms. Cheyenne Lall, Mrs. Renee Sandiford and Ms. Sasha Mahadeo.

75 persons now proud owners of turnkey homes EMPOWERING Guyanese, strengthening communities, creating employment and providing security of tenure remain top priorities for the Ministry of Housing and the Central Housing and Planning Authority (CH&PA), in addressing the housing needs of Guyanese. Some 75 persons are now proud new homeowners, thanks to the Ministry of Housing and Water’s Turn-key 1,000 Homes project at Perseverance, Providence, East Bank Demerara. The houses were awarded within recent months, as the ministry aggressively constructs 150 houses during the first phase of the project. The ministry facilitates visits to the houses by homeowners during the construction phase. Infrastructure for electricity and water are already in place and roads in the new community will boast asphaltic concrete surfaces once construction has been completed. Towards this goal, the Authority continues with its drive to construct more turnkey homes to provide affordable housing solutions to more families; these projects are expected to open up many possibilities to homeowners and to improve the living conditions of citizens. In the past, Housing and Water Minister, Irfaan Ali pointed to the “real trickle-down effect” that the construction of the houses

is having on the economies of the neighbouring communities where they are being constructed, notably the avenues of employment created. The 1000 Homes Project has provided employment opportunities for over 300 skilled and semi-skilled workers in the construction industry. The Housing Ministry is aiming in 2015 to complete the construction of an additional 150 turnkey homes at Perseverance, East Bank Demerara, taking into consideration the high number of applicants now requesting to be part of the project. The Buttercup Cottage, which costs $4.9M, will be on display and available for tours. The Buttercup Cottage has a total floor area of 600 square feet, and includes two bedrooms, a patio, washroom and kitchen, and dining and living areas. Recently, a furniture company partnered with the ministry to furnish the model home, which is expected to attract interested persons and prospective homeowners. Persons desirous of larger living space could purchase the Bungalow Orchid. The ministry will commence construction of the Bungalow Orchid shortly. This house is priced between $8M and $9M. It is a three-bedroom house with a total floor area of 1050 to 1100 square feet. The house includes tiled floor and bathroom, ceiling, modern lighting fixtures, and sash windows.

A section of the homes constructed under the 1000 Homes Project

launched by the CH&PA to expand the ministry’s Turn-Key Houses programme that recommenced in 2011. Construction began in May 2014 and by December 2014 one hundred Buttercup Cottages had been

completed. This affordable housing initiative was designed to provide homeowners with comfort, security and a healthy family life. The 1,000 Homes Project was launched in June 2013.

THAG contributes to the development of Guyana’s tourism industry ––launches website, booking engine, tourism development fund

A BOOKING Engine, Explore Guyana Website, and Tourism Development Fund were launched on Thursday evening as the Tourism and Hospitality Association of Guyana (THAG) aims to take Guyana further ahead in the tourism sector. At the launching on Thursday evening at the Cara Lodge, THAG President Shaun McGrath disclosed that

GTA Boss, Indranauth Haralsingh during his address (Photos by Samuel Maughn) these three new important and exciting initiatives will have a positive impact on the development of the tourism sector in Guyana. He highlighted that “More than 80% of tourism welcomers start their research on the internet; therefore, a well-designed website is a very important tool for any tourism business to attract potential customers.”

The Explore Guyana website will serve as a planning guide for visitors to Guyana, as it will highlight the members and their facilities and provide links to their websites, while also featuring information on Guyana that will be useful in helping persons to consider Guyana for vacation. “The launch will give visitors a good idea of what Guyana and THAG members have to offer and it will develop after more information has been added, such as videos featuring the Guyana products,” he said. That apart, the Booking Engine is an initiative of THAG to boost the online presence of our members and to increase their business opportunities by facilitating real-time online reservations and confirmation. In conjunction with the internationally recognised company Regatta Software Solutions, it will allow members to increase their direct- booking volume. McGrath noted that the Tourism Development Fund which will start of April 1, has been created to allow THAG to make a more impactful contribution to the actions and decisions which affect the private sector tourism industry and its membership. Additionally, it will allow THAG to bring something more tangible to the table; to be in a position of greater independence; to have greater control of its members’ destiny. Speaking on behalf of the Minister of Tourism, Irfaan Ali, Head of the Guyana Tourism Authority (GTA), Indranauth Haralsingh disclosed that this is a strategic and timely launching of the Explore Guyana.Org website by THAG. Noting that, “We must start embracing digital technology because it is no longer an option but a necessity, as information and communications technology (ICT) is indispensible to travel and tourism, as it will definitely help to boost destination awareness, image, feasibility and other aspects of tourism, as online bookings and sales can contribute to tourism product development and marketing of Guyana, South America undiscov-

ered.” BOOKING ENGINE The booking engine will help the tourism industry to support reservations through the internet, because

THAG President Shaun McGrath addressing the gathering this is a much needed and welcome application, as it is one of the fastest- growing sales channels in the world. “Online travel bookings were almost 1/3 of the worldwide volume up to 2012… this allows initially for hotel bookings at the moment, and will later hopefully expand to airlines, tours, packages…” he said. Thus far, he noted that over 12 hotels have responded and are on board for the booking engine, while other hotels are urged to take advantage of this opportunity to boost their online sales and occupancy through this real-time booking system which will save time and money. According to Haralsingh, gone will be the days when one would have had to reply to a reservation or an email request, as the booking engine will be more professional, and will also allow a hotel to have a promotion code if there is a special, as it can also capture a customer and consumer database. TOURISM DEVELOPMENT FUND Meanwhile, apart from the Booking Engine another excellent initiative was launched: the Tourism Development Fund, which is expected start from April 1. “The fund will be financed through a nominal voluntary fee or contribution by hotel guests, as it is an excellent initiative and a great way to garner funds to boost marketing, training beautification, grants, and further ICT adoption and expansion, while it also aims at the preservation of heritage sites. The continuous changes and different ways of doing business have presented Guyanese with the urgent need to innovate, and it has to become part of the fundamental DNA of the companies and businesses. In closing, Haralsingh stated that it is a clear demonstration of THAG’s innovativeness and the vision for its members and for tourism in Guyana. “In the age of technology, the tourism industry is adopting a third ‘T’ making it travel tourism and technology, as we will continue to collaborate to lead, facilitate and drive tourism development in Guyana.”

At Berbice Assizes ...

Following NA prison fracas ...

Father now pleads guilty to causing daughter’s death - after previously being deemed mentally unstable

A YEAR ago murder accused Charles Albert was deemed unfit to face a jury trial but he appeared before Justice Brassington Reynolds at the Berbice Assizes Thursday where Government Psychiatrist, Dr. Mayda Grajales disclosed that her patient appears to be normal. Consequently, Albert has pleaded guilty to the lesser count of manslaughter, during his second trial, and this was accepted by Assistant Director of Prosecutions, Mrs. Judith Mursaline. He is expected to return on March 26 for a probation report and sentencing. Earlier, Dr. Grajales had reported that on February 6, 2014, she appeared before Justice Diana Insanally and related that she had been attending to the prison inmate over the past two to three years. During that period Albert

was deemed mentally unstable. Then the doctor was summoned to the court as a result of a motion by then State Counsel, Ms Renita Singh, who had submitted

On trial: Charles Albert that the State was of the opinion that the accused was suffering from some defect of the mind and was unable to understand the nature of the proceedings

before him, neither could he properly take instructions from his counsel, Mr Raymond Ali. Singh noted that the perception was based on a previous trial, which was aborted during the October 2013 session, after the prisoner displayed abnormal behaviour. Consequently, the Cuban-trained mental health practitioner, who is commonly referred to as Dr Mayada, noted that her client would be willing to take his medication, while on other occasions he was loud. His behaviour appeared to be one of delusional grandeur as he related of how much wealth he possessed. C o n s e q u e n t l y, s h e opined that he did not comprehend the reason for his incarceration, and she did not believe he could understand the concept of the trial but maybe able with treatment for the next

three months. Albert was then put on antipsychotic medication. Thereafter, Justice Diane Inshanally had ordered that the prisoner be returned to the New Amsterdam prison for continuous medical treatment for three months, before being reassessed with respect to his fitness to stand a trial. At this recent hearing, the psychiatrist said that following a visit at the New Amsterdam prison on Wednesday, the prisoner, whom she did not see for four months, immediately recognised her from a previous visit. “He recalled where he lived, why and the cause for his imprisonment. He appeared to be normal.” According to her, the interview was conducted in the presence of the Dr Ileena, who is assigned to the prison, along with a nurse and other prison officials. Albert has denied a charge of murder, contrary to the common law. However, he has confessed that he unlawfully killed his daughter Reletta Onica Greaves on December 12, 2011, at Corriverton, Corentyne.

‘Psycho’ confesses to killing ‘Short Man’

MANSLAUGHTER convict Jason Orlando Mc Kenzie threw in the towel by confessing to the unlawful killing of fellow prison inmate Sebastian Clata, called ‘Short Man’, at the New Amsterdam prison between April 27 and May 1, 2011. The prisoner had earlier pleaded not guilty to murder, but pleaded guilty to manslaughter and this was accepted by the Assistant Director of Public Prosecutions, Mrs. Judith Mursaline, who is representing the State. Prior to the adjournment to March 26, a probation report on the convict’s background will be done, and then sentencing will be imposed by Justice Brassington Reynolds. Defence Counsel Mr. Raymond Ali expressed fear over the safety of his client. Ali informed the court that Jason Orlando McKenzie, the incident aroused alias ‘Psycho’ bad blood among the prisoners and his client fears for his life. Since the incident Mc Kenzie had been transferred to the Timehri prison. However, the judge, addressing the prison warden who had escorted the convict earlier, requested that the Director of Prisons, or his representative, keep Mc Kenzie safely from the other prisoners so that there be no chance of further acrimony. Meanwhile Clata, who had been beaten in his sleep, had been imprisoned on a murder charge. He had sustained head injuries, and was rushed to the New Amsterdam Hospital where he was admitted prior to being transferred to the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation where he died on May 1. Three persons were initially charged with this offence.

Samuel Hinds Jnr. wounding case …

Prosecution, defence to make submissions on April 8

THE prosecution is to make submissions on April 8, 2015, after advice from the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) in the Samuel Hinds Jr. case. Hinds Jnr., son of Prime Minister Samuel Hinds, was found guilty of unlawful wounding on February 6 by former Magistrate Geeta Chandan-Edmond. He was scheduled to be sentenced by the former magistrate on February 20 last, but on that very day, Chandan-Edmond was dismissed by the Judicial Service Commission. Attorney-at-law Mr. Peter Hugh, representing Hinds Jr., will also reply to the prosecution’s submission on the given date. Presiding over the matter is Magistrate Annette Singh, while representing the prosecution is Police Corporal Renetta Bentham. At the Georgetown Magistrates’ Court on Thursday, the Court gave its opinion based on research, in that Hinds had

been already found guilty by a magistrate for the offence with which he was charged. However, Magistrate Singh said that the only way a trial could be restarted is if the guilty verdict has been appealed. She noted that the court has no jurisdiction to do so and as such the court’s opinion is to sentence the defendant. The 33-year-old miner of Duke Street, Kingston, Georgetown, was found guilty of wounding his teenaged sister-in-law,Tenza Layne, after he had accused her of stealing his cellular phone. He is currently out on bail. On the day in question, February 27, 2014, Hinds and the victim had an argument over the missing cellphone. He is said to have stomped Layne before dragging her on the ground and beating her with a cane. He then brandished a gun, cranked it and threatened to kill her.

Court orders psychiatric evaluation for La Penitence man MAGISTRATE Alex Moore has remanded to prison and ordered a psychiatric evaluation for a La Penitence man accused of choking a four-year-old boy . It is alleged that Leyland Murray on March 17, 2015, at Middle Street, unlawfully assaulted Kevin Junior. Magistrate Moore entered a not guilty plea on Murray’s behalf after he refused to answer to the charge. The court heard that on the day in question, the man came into the little boy’s yard, grabbed him by the neck and was proceeding to a nearby trench, when intervention by neighbours saved Junior from being thrown overboard by Murray.

The boy’s mother informed the court that it’s the norm for Murray to behave in such manner, and described him as a Zoophiliac (one who has a sexual attraction for animals) and would often threaten neighbours with knives. The woman added that she is scared because she and Murray are immediate neighbours. Further, she opined that Murray is of sound mind, claiming that he knew what he was doing when he assaulted her son. Murray is expected to be examined by Dr. Bhiro Harry, and will make his next court appearance on April 22.

Omai winds up operations on June 30 By Tajeram Mohabir AS Omai Gold Mines Limited (OGML) prepares to wrap up operations after 24 years of service in Guyana, Public Works Minister Robeson Benn has thanked the company for its consistent maintenance of the Mabura Road. The 65 miles of roadway starts at the Omai Junction and ends at Rockstone. Omai has the maintenance contract for the road, which requires work to be done practically every day to make it trafficable, especially during the rainy season. The services of Mabura residents are utilised in some aspects of the maintenance work, and when the company leaves, Government will take over the maintenance. According to Benn, one of the indicators used for maintenance of the road, which stretches from Linden to Lethem, a distance of 276 miles, is that a traveller should not take more than 11 hours during a journey. Benn said Government intends to make the passage a “tar road”, but pointed out that a study by Mott MacDonald estimated the project at around US$270 million.

Mott MacDonald is a global management, engineering and development consultancy adding value for public and private clients on agenda-setting, next-generation projects worldwide. Currently, Benn said work is feasible only up to Demerara Timbers Limited (DTL). Nevertheless, he said, things have changed significantly, pointing out that in his younger days, there was no road. “I have seen a big change, the trail came through, the timber trail, the building of roads to DTL, Government had a contract

with Paranapanema, a Brazilian company which pushed the road through,” he said. Over the years, Government has progressively built the road, developing it to its current state, and Benn wants residents to expect a “blacktop road”(tar road) in the next 10 years. Inevitable He said this is inevitable, given the development in Brazil and Guyana, and the fact that “they want to get to the sea and take their stuff to Linden and Port Georgetown”. This, he said, will significantly increase traffic on the Linden to Lethem corridor. Benn, who was at the time speaking to residents, teach-

ers and students of Mabura Mission Annex, said Mabura has grown considerably over the past 20 years and urged the students to continue studying. He told them that they are the ones who will be responsible for further development of the Region 10 community. OGML Human Resource Manager Norman McLean said as the company departs Guyana on June 30, it is proud of its work on the road. During the cyanide spill in the mid 1990s, he said the gold-mining company mobilised equipment and fixed the road, making it

what it is today. “The advent of Omai doing their operations and the fact that they had to haul all their fuel and supplies by road from Linden was a very important contributor to improving, maintaining the roads. They have built the road to high standards,” Minister Benn said. He observed that there has been an upsurge in forestry activities and more loggers are trucking their goods using the Mabura Road. On this point, Benn said the Government intends to introduce a toll on the road, so that persons engaged in forestry activities make a

direct contribution to its maintenance. Meanwhile, a second project by Omai at Karasabai/Monkey Maintain is expected to be completed by next month. Omai, located in the Cuyuni-Mazaruni region, is one of the largest gold mines in Guyana and the world, with estimated reserves of 3.7 million ozs of gold. On August 19, 1995, a tailings dam broke and leaked tailings into the Essequibo River, killing some 351 fish. A class action suit of $2 billion was filed against the mining company but the case was dismissed.

Strange-looking plant washes ashore at Devonshire Castle --believed to come from Atlantic floor

By Rajendra Prabhulall A STRANGE-looking plant has washed ashore at Devonshire Castle, on the Essequibo Coast. According to reports, two

residents of the village, Adam and Laurence Lall, discovered the intrusion after venturing onto the muddy foreshore to check on their seine. Adam said he was amazed to see the plants flourishing at

the edge of the foreshore and seawall, while Lall said that after examining the ‘visitors’, he came to the conclusion that they came from either the floor of the Atlantic Ocean or another country. He said he has never seen such a plant growing at Devonshire Castle in all his years living there. Another resident, a fisherman named ‘Jones’, said the find is very strange to him because he’s never before seen the likes of it on the foreshore. What is interesting is that Devonshire Castle residents are complaining that the vegetation is posing serious problems to seines that are pinned on the foreshore, and are calling on the relevant authorities to look into the matter.

Belizean elected new OAS Assistant Secretary-General THE General Assembly of the Organisation of American States (OAS) on Wednesday elected the Permanent Representative of Belize, Ambassador Nestor Mendez, as the next Assistant Secretary-General of the hemispheric institution. The election of Ambassador Mendez took place by way of a vote in which he obtained 24 votes from the member states, compared with 10 received by the Permanent Representative of Guyana, Bayney Karran, a press release stated. The vote took place following the election of the former Foreign Minister of Uruguay, Luis Almagro to the position of Secretary-General, which he will assume on May 26, succeeding the current leader of the hemispheric Organization, José Miguel Insulza. Ambassador Mendez will succeed Assistant Secretary General Albert Ramdin on July 12. Upon accepting the position, the Assistant Secretary-General-elect said he stood before the countries that elected him to the post “with a clear mandate and an unwavering commitment to seize the opportunity that is before us to work together to transform the OAS into the Organization that we want and that the people of the Americas deserve.” AN IMPORTANT GESTURE He thanked the member states for their votes, calling it an important gesture for the Government of Belize, and recalled that his country “considered an effective bridge between Central America and CARICOM has an import-

ant contribution to make to the Inter-American System, anchored in the fundamental principles enshrined in the OAS Charter, the Inter-American Democratic Charter and the Social Charter of the Americas.” “Therefore, I am honoured to reiterate that commitment to the Inter-American System and to the people we all serve,” the Belizean diplomat said. He then thanked member states “for the trust deposited in me through today´s vote, which I understand as a show of trust and recognition of my country and myself,” adding: “The clear mandate I have received from you shows me that we agree that today, more than ever, is the moment to strengthen our Organization, focusing ourselves on the things we have in common and that unite us and not those that divide us. “This is a job that can only be done as a team, and through dialogue, based on respect and with a deep commitment. Today, we begin a new stage in our Organization; we look to the future with optimism that together we can change and improve this valuable Organization; it is a debt to the peoples of the Americas.” In his acceptance speech to the General Assembly, the Assistant Secretary-General-elect congratulated the Secretary-General-elect, Luis Almagro, and promised to work with him as a team for the Organization. “I am ready to work closely with him to transform this Organization,” he said, while congratulating Ambassador Karran for “a respectful and well organized campaign, fully aligned with

ELECTORAL EXERCISE In concluding the meeting, the current Assistant Secretary-General, Albert Ramdin, congratulated the elected authorities and said that the electoral exercise “has demonstrated the relevance of this Organization in all terms.” He said “the value and purpose of the Organization signifies that we are a true platform for dialogue among member states, the 34, and hopefully soon, the 35 active member states in our hemisphere,” and concluded recalling the principles that have guided his work and that of Secretary General

Insulza in the last ten years: “strengthening peace, unity, stability, and prosperity in the Americas.” The XLIX Special General Assembly was chaired by the Foreign Minister of Guatemala, Carlos Raúl Morales, who was elected to the position by the Assembly by acclamation.

reminded of and enlightened on the work and life of the late Mr. and Mrs. Jagan, by members of the PPP/C. Among them were the PPP/C’s Prime Ministerial candidate, Mrs. Elisabeth Harper; leader of the Women’s Progressive Organisation (WPO), Sheila Verasammy; Member of the Executive Committee of the PPP/C, Mr. Hydar Ally; and Chairman

of the Bel Air/Prashad Nagar PPP/C group, Colin Croal. Mrs. Harper reflected on her experience working with both Mr. and Mrs. Jagan, noting that it was a pleasure working along with those outstanding patriots. “They both did not stand on ceremony,” she said, “as their principles were ones that should remain with all of us who want a better life

for our family and children… They stood for better livelihood, equality regardless of race, ethnicity, colour, creed, religion…” Mrs. Harper also recalled that when Dr. Jagan took office, one of the first initiatives he advocated was that there should be a new order in the world that would recognize equality, and confront the growing challenges of inequality in countries, so as to promote human development. Since the year 1992 to now, she underscored that the Foreign Ministry has been promoting that initiative, stating that it is promoted now as the “New Global Human Order”. “Last year December at the General Assembly of the United Nations (UN), a resolution was passed emphasising the importance of efforts to address all aspects and dimensions of

inequality… that resolution called upon the member states of the international community to pursue ambitious efforts to address this, particularly in the context of the post 2015 development agenda,” she said. This, Mrs. Harper highlighted, is the legacy left by Dr. Jagan, as he made member states recognise the need to address inequalities and promote economic equity and social justice. She added, “I had the privilege of serving those great people, and we should continue to promote and work for what they lived for so that we can secure the future of generations to come.” Meanwhile also speaking at the event, Ms. Verasammy spoke about the great work of Mrs. Jagan, and her role in promoting women’s rights in Guyana.

Moreover, Mrs. Jagan struggled for the betterment of all Guyanese for about 60 years, as she was even labeled as one of the 16 most rebellious women in the world. She further noted that both of these distinguished persons worked intensely, campaigning and struggling against the Burnham regime to ensure that the citizens of Guyana had a better livelihood. Also sharing his experiences, Mr. Ali talked about the goodness and simplicity of both of these idolized persons, who fought for the betterment of Guyana in many ways. The greatness and works of Mr. and Mrs. Jagan are too much to mention, as they did quite a handful for Guyana, bringing the motherland back from destruction to a land of betterment where Guyanese have a better life.

Brooks strokes hundred but Barbados slide late

KINGSTON, Jamaica, CMC – Shamarh Brooks stroked his second consecutive hundred but Barbados Pride lost a clatter of wickets in the final hour, to throw away some of their control against Jamaica Franchise, on the opening day of their final round match in the WICB PCL here yesterday. The right-hander hit exactly 100 as Barbados, opting for first knock at Sabina Park, closed the day on 286 for eight, with support coming from Shai Hope who got 59, opener Omar Phillips who hit 34 and wicketkeeper Shane Dowrich who chipped in with

33, as Barbados cruised to 251 for four at one stage during the final session before losing four quick wickets for 35 runs. Former Young West Indies pacer Marquino Mindley was the main destroyer, taking four for 36 while his new ball partner Jason Dawes finished with two for 45. Barbados were off to a horrible start when they lost captain and main run-getter Kraigg Brathwaite, caught at the wicket off the final ball of the opening over bowled by Mindley, but Hope and Phillips combined to repair the damage with a second wicket partnership of 92, which took Barbados to lunch at 66 for

one. The right-handed Hope, who hit a double century against Windward Islands Volcanoes in the last round, struck five fours off 149 balls in just under 3-1/2 hours at the crease, while Phillips hit four fours off 136 balls in 159 minutes, before falling to Mindley, and Hope and Brooks added a further 36 before Hope was sent on his way, lbw to Mindley. The 26-year-old Brooks then anchored two key partnerships to put Barbados in control. He put on 40 with Roston Chase who scored 13 and then added 83 for the fifth with Dowrich. Brooks, in only his second match of the season, faced 162 deliveries in 197 minutes and counted nine fours and a six. The knock was his second first class hundred, however, Brooks and Dowrich were among the late wickets to fall, with Dowrich stumped off off-spinner Ramaal Lewis and Brooks taken behind off Mindley with the second new ball.

2022 FIFA World Cup would probably last 28 days (REUTERS) - FIFA ended more than four years of uncertainty over the timing of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar by announcing yesterday that it would be played in November and December with the final on December 18. Spokesman Walter De Gregorio said the winter tournament would probably last 28 days, instead of the 32 for last year’s finals in Brazil, but this was still to be decided. “The executive committee today ... decided that, yes, we are going to play in November and December and, yes, the final is going to be played on December 18,” De Gregorio told reporters at FIFA headquarters. “It’s a Sunday and it’s also the national day of Qatar

and, in principle, we try to play in 28 days. “The next steps will be to have different talks especially related to the match calendar,” he added, referring to the 2019-22 cycle of international fixtures and the 2023 African Nations Cup in Guinea that is scheduled to be played in January. Yesterday’s news was widely expected after the November/December period had been recommended by a task force of football’s ruling body FIFA. It will be the first time the tournament has been played outside the European summer. Qatar was awarded the event in December 2010 on the basis it would take place in the summer in air-conditioned stadiums. COLLISION COURSE But within days Franz Beckenbauer, an executive committee member at the time, and UEFA president Michel Platini suggested a winter World Cup would be possible. Qatar always said a summer World Cup was viable thanks to cooling technol-

ogies it is developing for stadiums, training areas and fan zones. However, there was still widespread concern for the health of players and supporters. The decision could set FIFA on a collision course with the European clubs who had suggested staging the tournament in May as a compromise. The European Clubs Association (ECA), which represents more than 200 teams, previously said it would demand compensation for interrupting the league season. In addition to the tournament, clubs must release players two weeks before for training and warm-up friendlies. The ECA demand had already been rejected by FIFA secretary general Jerome Valcke who said the switch to November/December was a one-off. Qatar still faces controversy for its treatment of migrant workers, mainly from Nepal and India, employed in the construction industry. FIFA president Sepp Blatter has said Qatar must do more to protect those working on 2022 sites.

Delighted Hodgson hands Kane his first England call-up By Mike Collett LONDON, England (Reuters) - Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane, who has scored 26 goals in all competitions this season, was named in the senior England squad for the first time by coach Roy Hodgson yesterday. Hodgson included Kane in his 24-man squad for the March 27 Euro 2016 Group E qualifier against Lithuania at Wembley and the friendly against Italy later this month. The 21-year-old is the top-scoring Englishman in the Premier League with 16 goals. There was also a recall for Liverpool striker Daniel Sturridge, who was injured in September, for England and has missed the last five internationals. Hodgson named only two goalkeepers, leaving a berth open for England Under-21 keeper Jack Butland who may be added to the squad later. Kane, the one uncapped player in the squad, is another product of the England youth system having played for the Under-17s through to the Under-21s and Hodgson said he was delighted with his progress this season. “I think the whole country is excited about Harry,” he told reporters at Wembley. “His rise has been fantastic since he broke into the Tottenham team. He has done so well and it would have been

Tottenham Hotspur’s Harry Kane applauds the fans after the final whistle. (Action Images via Reuters/Craig Brough) much more of a surprise if he had not been selected, so I am delighted for him.” England have six wins in six matches since their firstround exit from the World Cup last year and Hodgson said he was delighted with the progress the team has made with

new, younger players. However, Kane would have to fight for his place in the starting line-up. “We have done quite well since the World Cup with six straight wins, and the players who have been playing in those games have done a good job,” said Hodgson. “So it’s not as simple as a new player coming in and the ones who have played stepping aside. The ones he is competing with won’t want to step aside.” Squad: Goalkeepers - Fraser Forster (Southampton), Joe Hart (Manchester City); Defenders - Leighton Baines (Everton), Gary Cahill (Chelsea), Nathaniel Clyne (Southampton), Kieran Gibbs (Arsenal), Phil Jagielka (Everton), Phil Jones (Manchester United), Luke Shaw (Manchester United), Chris Smalling (Manchester United), Kyle Walker (Tottenham) Midfielders - Ross Barkley (Everton), Michael Carrick (Manchester United), Fabian Delph (Aston Villa), Jordan Henderson (Liverpool), Adam Lallana (Liverpool), James Milner (Man City), Raheem Sterling (Liverpool), Andros Townsend (Tottenham), Theo Walcott (Arsenal); Forwards - Harry Kane (Tottenham), Wayne Rooney (Manchester United), Daniel Sturridge (Liverpool), Danny Welbeck (Arsenal).

FIFA to pay clubs $209M for World Cup ‘collaboration’ By Brian Homewood (REUTERS) - FIFA has announced a threefold increase in the amount of money it pays as part of a collaboration agreement with clubs who release players for the World Cup and the ruling body will hand out $209M in both 2018 and 2022. Clubs will also be given a greater say in drawing up the international match calendar, which allocates the dates for club and national team matches, following the agreement between FIFA and the European Clubs’ Association (ECA). The move appeared to placate the European clubs who had said they would demand compensation if the 2022 World Cup in Qatar was staged in November and December. Those dates, which will force the European season to be stopped for nearly two months, were confirmed by FIFA during an executive committee meeting on Thursday, with the final to be staged on December 18. “FIFA and the European Club Association (ECA) are pleased to announce an extension to their collaboration agreement, which was established for the first time for the 2010

FIFA World Cup,” FIA said in a statement yesterday. “A total of $209M will be distributed among the clubs releasing players to the participating teams in the 2018 FIFA World Cup (in Russia),” FIFA added. “The same amount has been agreed for the 22nd edition to be staged in Qatar in 2022.” A total of $70M was distributed to clubs who released players for last year’s World Cup in Brazil. “(We have secured a direct say on the international match calendar - changes thereto will have to be jointly discussed and agreed,” the ECA said. “In serious and fair negotiations, the ECA has agreed with FIFA on a transparent economic and organisational cooperation until 2022,” ECA president Karl-Heinz Rummenigge said in a statement. “For the first time, the European clubs will have a direct say on the international match calendar, which was very important to me personally. As a result, the ECA will be actively involved and contribute constructively to the design of the calendar, especially for 2022. “Moreover, the World Cup club benefits will triple from $70M to $209M for the World Cups in 2018

and 2022. These payments will benefit clubs from around the world who release World Cup players to their respective national associations. From an ECA perspective, this agreement is a great achievement. It marks another milestone for club football as a whole” FIFA president Sepp Blatter said:

“We are taking a huge step forward in promoting relations between FIFA and the clubs in a spirit of mutual and constructive cooperation.” FIFA uses a complex formula to determine how much each club receives, depending on the amount of players released and the number of days

they participate in the competition. “The agreement puts the emphasis on fundamental principles such as the promotion of training and player development as well as the sporting integrity of the competitions, in the interests of the game and its appeal to the public,” FIFA added.

Simmons appointed new West Indies head coach ST JOHN’S, Antigua – The West Indies Cricket Board announced yesterday the appointment of Phil Simmons to the role of West Indies head coach on a three-year contract. The 51-year-old Simmons was one of seven persons interviewed for the post and following his eight years of unparalleled success with ICC Associate team Ireland, whom he led to two 50-overs and four Twenty20 World Cups, as well as the Associates treble two years ago, he was the outstanding candidate. “We are thrilled with the appointment of Phil and we believe he is the right individual for our team and

our region at this time, so we want to welcome him back home,” said WICB chief executive officer Michael Muirhead. “Phil has a proven ability to develop players, while cultivating great team spirit and a winning culture. We have a number of young, talented players about whom he is excited to be coaching and we believe he is the right fit.” Muirhead added: “Phil has impressed us with his understanding of the current realities of West Indies cricket and his ability to articulate practical examples and strategies of things that could be implemented within the team to improve

character and his resolve to stand up for what he believes in were also strong qualities that convinced us that Phil was best suited to usher the West Indies team into a new era of success.” Simmons, who played 26 Tests and 143 One-day Internationals for West Indies between 1987 and 1999, acknowledged it was difficult to leave Ireland, but coaching the West Indies team was too good an opportunity to let pass. “West Indies have a

Phil Simmons performance. “His independence of

tremendous history and prestige in the game, and I am honoured to have been given this opportunity to be head coach,” he said. “There is an abundance of young talent coming through the ranks and to be able to assist with the development of the future playing talent in the West Indies is fantastic. I can’t wait to begin and I am looking forward to starting work with the players.” He said: “I am excited to be beginning this new chapter in my coaching career and

to have the opportunity to create a winning culture. West Indies have a huge following across the world and I have great admiration for the passion fans show for our team. We are determined to give the supporters the brand of cricket and the level of success that we are all looking to achieve.” Simmons’ first task will be to oversee the West Indies team for the International Home Test Series against England next month.

Bitter end for Misbah and Afridi’s one-day careers

By Ian Ransom

Shahid Afridi

(REUTERS) - A crushing quarter-final loss to Australia at the World Cup yesterday was a heart-breaking swansong in one-day cricket for Pakistan captain Misbah-ulHaq and fellow veteran Shahid Afridi. Though Pakistan grafted hard to reach the knockout rounds, Australia ruthlessly exposed their batting frailty, which will be further undermined by the seasoned pair’s retirements. Over eight Pakistan batsmen scored 10 or more runs in their modest total of 213, but none could build on it, and both Misbah and former skipper Afridi were among those who failed to convert their starts. The 40-year-old Misbah, who finishes his one-day career without a century, slogswept straight to a fielder at deep midwicket to be out for 34. If surprising for a batsman renowned for his reserve, the explosive Afridi’s dismissal for 23 was less unexpected, albeit a carbon copy of his captain’s demise. A third batsman in Umar Akmal would hit straight to Aaron Finch near the rope to squander his positive start of 20 and with their batsmen failing to provide a total to defend, Pakistan’s bowlers were let down by two

Misbah-ul-Haq dropped catches in the field that could have changed the complexion of the match. Australia all-rounder Shane Watson was dropped on four and Glenn Maxwell spilled on five, the pair capitalising to build an unbeaten partnership of 68 to close out a sixwicket victory. Misbah lamented his side’s poor shot selection and forecast a grim future for Pakistan if administrators failed to crack the whip in the domestic leagues to improve standards. “Especially we need to improve our batting. This has been now a problem for almost three/four years,” he told reporters after scoring his 3 000th run as captain. “We are not up to the mark, up to the standards, international standards. We need to really improve that. And also fielding is another aspect where all the other international teams are really going up to a higher level and we really need to improve that, and obviously that comes with fitness. “A lot of steps have been taken by the cricket board and just trying to develop that sort of system, fitness culture in Pakistani domestic cricket. But still, we are not there, and I think we need to really improve that, otherwise we’re going to suffer in the future.”

Bishoo, Permaul carve up Volcanoes batting ROSEAU, Dominica, CMC – Another devastating spell of leg-spin from Devendra Bishoo partially overshadowed a career milestone for teammate and left-arm spinner Veerasammy Permaul, as they led a Guyana Jaguars fight-back against Windward Islands Volcanoes in the WICB PCL here yesterday. Bishoo was the more destructive of the two spinners, grabbing 6 for 74 from 26.5 overs, as the Volcanoes were bowled out for 282 in their first innings about 10 minutes after the scheduled close on the rain-affected opening day of the 10th round match at Windsor Park. But Permaul covered himself in personal satisfaction, grabbing 4 for 64 from 24 overs to put an early hold on the record for the most wickets in a single season of regional four-day cricket. Veteran left-handed opener Devon Smith hit the top score of 92 for the home team, narrowly missing out on his third hundred of the season, while fellow opener Tyrone Theophile supported with 58 and Keddy Lesporis, batting at three, made 50. Rajindra Chandrika was not out on one and West Indies left-hander Assad Fudadin was not out on zero, as the Jaguars reached two without loss when stumps were drawn.

West Indies off-spinner Shane Shillingford, the hometown hero, replaced Sebastien and was soon caught at slip for a duck to leave the Volcanoes on the skids at 239 for six before a half-hour stoppage for rain offered them temporary respite. On resumption, Permaul spun into action removing Dennis Smith for 12, Kenroy Peters for 10 and Delorn Johnson for a duck in the space of 52 balls before Bishoo brought the curtain down on the innings. The Jaguars, the newlyminted regional champions, will be looking to underline their status as the season’s best side against Windward Islands Volcanoes. The visitors entered the match on top of the table with 130 points and the home team were third on 106 – two behind Barbados Pride.

Mohammed hundred propels T&T COUVA, Trinidad, CMC – Jason Mohammed’s fifth first class hundred rallied Trinidad and Tobago Red Force on the opening day of their final round WICB PCL game against Leeward Islands Hurricanes here yesterday. The right-hander struck 143 not out as the hosts, winning the toss and batting, were dismissed for 291 at the National Cricket Centre and at the close, the Leewards were 13 without loss in reply. Mohammed’s innings was especially required after T&T slumped to 104 for five. The 28-year-old then posted three crucial stands, adding 57 for the fifth wicket with Steven Katwaroo (14), 43 for the seventh with Akeal Hosein (16) and another 57 for the ninth with Marlon Richards who scored 23. All told, Mohammed smashed 17 fours in a fantastic knock spanning 188 balls and 260 minutes as off-spinner Rahkeem Cornwall was the best bowler for the Hurricanes with 3 for 78 while seamer Quinton Boatswain (2-24) and leg-spinner Anthony Martin (2-44) supported with two wickets apiece.

Australia to face India in semis

AUSTRALIA will face India in the World Cup semifinals after a comfortable six-wicket win over Pakistan at Adelaide yesterday. Josh Hazlewood took four for 35 as Pakistan were dismissed for 213 but they had a chance with Australia at 59 for three after Michael Clarke was dismissed, but Steve Smith (65) and Shane Watson (64 not out) put on 89 before some big-hitting from Glenn Maxwell (44 not out) saw Australia home with 97 balls to spare. Pakistan won the toss and elected to bat first, safely chipping their way through the opening overs until Sarfraz Ahmed (10) fell victim to a stunning diving catch at slip from Watson. Mitchell Starc had provided the delivery but it

was Hazlewood who snaffled the second wicket with a delivery that saw Ahmed Shehzad edge to Clarke and exit for five, before Haris Sohail and Misbah-ul-Haq steadied the ship with a flurry of boundaries, the latter carting two big sixes to move Pakistan on to 97 for two heading towards the halfway mark. Misbah’s bright innings came to an end as he holed out to Aaron Finch for 34 as Maxwell removed the batsman who had twice hit him into the crowd, followed by Sohail who was gone nine runs short of his half-century as Mitchell Johnson tempted him into a loose drive that edged behind. The screw continued to turn and Umar Akmal (20) did not help himself with a weak attempt at a slog that Finch pouched, to earn

Australia’s Shane Watson (left) is watched by Glenn Maxwell as he expresses himself following their side’s six-wicket victory over Pakistan in their ICC World Cup quarterfinal encounter yesterday. Maxwell his second wicket. The short, square boundaries of the Adelaide Oval soon tricked Pakistan once again. Tempted by

Hazlewood’s delivery, Shahid Afridi attempted a pull to deep midwicket but instead found the lurking Finch to fall for a swiftly put-

together 23. Sohaib Maqsood (29) became Hazlewood’s third victim as he hit a reckless shot straight to Johnson at cover while Wahab Riaz followed for 16, moments later, when he lofted the ball behind for an easy Brad Haddin catch off Starc to leave Pakistan 188 for eight. Hazlewood struck again in the 44th over as Sohail Khan (four) sent the ball high into the air with wicketkeeper Haddin taking a beautiful catch. Ehsan Adil was last to fall for 15, caught by Starc off James Faulkner. Pakistan would have been pleased to get dangerman Finch for just two early in Australia’s reply, Sohail trapping him plumb and prompting a wasteful review. David Warner was next to go for 24 off 23 balls

as he wafted at a Wahab ball outside off and only succeeded in finding Rahat at third man, then Wahab had another key wicket in his next over, bouncing out Clarke for eight as he looped it to Maqsood and Australia were 59 for 3. Wahab was bowling a ferocious spell and induced a top-edged hook from Watson that looked like a certain wicket but Rahat dropped an absolute dolly at fine-leg. Smith then brought up his 50 off 51 balls with a four and Australia were cruising until Smith fell for 65, lbw to a ball from Ehsan that looked like it may have been heading down leg. Maxwell was then dropped by Sohail but it was unlikely to make a difference as some big hitting eased Australia home.

Pietersen seeking ECB talks on Test return KEVIN Pietersen is seeking face-to-face talks with England and Wales Cricket Board chairman Colin Graves as he attempts to resurrect his international career. The 34-year-old’s England career was ended just over 12 months ago due to what ECB managing director Paul Downton described as his ‘disengagement’ with team-mates during the Sydney Test defeat that concluded the Ashes whitewash Down Under. Pietersen has since released an autobiography in which he criticised many of his England team-mates but Graves appeared to open the door to a return when he hinted that impressive firstclass performances with a county could provide a route back to the top of the game.

That prompted the batsman to open talks with Surrey but the path back to international cricket is still far from clear with England Test captain Alastair Cook calling a comeback “highly unlikely” and national selector James Whitaker stating that Pietersen is “not part of our plans”. But Pietersen, who has 23 Test hundreds to his name, is still seeking a meeting with Graves about a possible return for this summer’s Ashes after revealing he has spoken with the new chairman over the phone. “I have had conversations with the chairman but I think what we need to do is sit down and do it face to face,” he told the BBC’s Test Match Special. “I don’t think me speaking on a telephone is the way forward in making

Kevin Pietersen big decisions. “I love what Colin Graves has done for Yorkshire. It’s an exciting time so to be part of that would be amazing,” said Pietersen whose Test debut came during the famous Ashes series win of 2005 and he admits that the 5-0 loss on which he bowed

out still leaves a bitter taste in the mouth. “It does make me hungry,” he added. “Up until two weeks ago there was no chance in a couple of people’s minds that I would have the opportunity to come back and try to avenge the 5-0 defeat. Playing international

EBDCA/GOODWOOD 40 OVERS

Final bowls off at Bayroc ground tomorrow AFTER several weeks of exciting action, despite the inclement weather, the curtain will come down on the 2014 East Bank Demerara Cricket Association/ Goodwood Racing Service 40 overs cricket competition tomorrow at the Bayroc ground in Linden between Bayroc Sports Club and Laluni Sports Club. Fourteen teams started the competition which was badly affected by the inclement weather last year, resulting in the late finish of the signature tournament for cricket on

the East Bank of Demerara. After a low-scoring semi-final at the Bayroc ground, the home team squeezed past North Soesdyke Sports Club by four wickets while Laluni Sports Club made full use of home advantage to beat Ruimveldt Sports Club in a hard-fought match. Laluni Sports Club’s victory by four wickets set up the much-anticipated final against the confident Bayroc Sports Club in the mining town tomorrow, with the first ball set to be bowled at 11:00hrs.

After the match, which will be officiated by Zaheer Mohammed and Flemroy Lambert, members and other executives of the EBDCA and representatives of Goodwood Racing Service will be on hand for the presentation of prizes. The winning team will take home some spectacular silverware and $20 000, the losing finalists will walk away with $15 000 and a trophy, while the man-ofthe-match in the final will collect a trophy and $5 000 for his efforts.

cricket is something I’ve dreamt of as a child. Given an opportunity it’s like being reborn or starting a career again.” While Graves apparently seems open to a return for Pietersen, how he would be accepted within the dressing room could be an issue after the criticism of a number of England players in his book. Graeme Swann has retired and Matt Prior’s return is highly uncertain due to injury but James Anderson and Stuart Broad, two of the players Pietersen accused of ‘running’ the dressing room and creating a ‘bullying’ culture within it, still remain. Pietersen also had a rift with England coach Peter Moores in 2009 which led

to the player losing the captaincy and Moores losing his job but the South-Africa born batsman has insisted he could play for Moores and is hopeful he would not have trouble in the England dressing room. “There are so many of the guys in that side who are my real buddies,” he said. “It has been frustrating over the last 12 months to get messages and little bits of information from the dressing-room asking me ‘how would you do this and that?’. I’d prefer to be out there helping them, being the senior batter who can go out there and hopefully carry England through sessions and be positive and take the attack to oppositions.”

MILO U-20 CHAMPIONSHIPS

Intense quarter-final action anticipated today

By Calvin Roberts

FOLLOWING their performances in the preliminary and round of 16 in this year’s Petra Organisation/Milo Under-20 Inter-School Football Championships, intense rivalry will unfold at the Ministry of Education ground today, when the remaining eight teams do battle in the quarterfinals. First up at 11:00hrs is the clash between tournament favourites Chase Academy and underdogs Queenstown Secondary, with Isaiah Reddy, Marlon Nedd and Kareem Knights leading Chase’s challenge against the likes of Kelsey Benjamin, Wallison DeSantos and Cordell Charles, who will lead Queenstown’s charge into the semifinals.

The second quarterfinal which kicks off at 12:30hrs, will see St Joseph, who upset former champions St George’s High in the last round, take on Morgan Learning Centre, with Mario King, Phillip Marignan, Dwight Ferguson and Lemar Williams taking charge of St Joseph High. How well they cope against the never-say-die attitude of Ronaldo Dover, Keyron Solomon, Wayne Murray and Randy Layne of Morgan Learning Centre is left to be seen, but one way or the other, whether it is through regulation-time goals or penalty kicks, one of the two will be making their exit from the tournament. The third quarterfinal match today can be deemed a scorcher, and kicks off at 14:00hrs, with

defending champions Lodge Secondary putting their chances of defending their title on the line, when they face up against St Mary’s Secondary. Jarell Grannum, Keyoma Crawford, Ryan ‘Boom Boom’ Hackett, Shamar Dover and Stephan McLean will all be part of Lodge’s lineup, looking to turn back the challenges of St Mary’s Rafael Charles, Curtis Kellman, Kareem Caines and Rafael Bollers. Carl Griffith is not a one-man army, but in this tournament, he has been leading North Ruimveldt Multilateral School admirably and is expected to do so when they go up against Dolphin Secondary, who will depend on Dakhawn Matthews and Leon Richardson for a victory when the two sides meet at 15:30hrs in the final quarter-final fixture of the day.

Flashback! Part of the action during the preliminary rounds in this year’s Petra Organisation/Milo Under-20 Inter-School Football Championships.

GMR&SC drag meet set for March 29 ... Can the Toyota Supra be stopped?

Sankar Auto Works supports Pele FC for K&S Football tournament ... Double-header tonight at Victoria ground

Supra Power! The Rondell Daby-driven car which is regarded as the country’s fastest in drags. By Rawle Toney

Sankar’s Dwayne Rodrigues (second from left) makes the presentation to Marvin Goodman yesterday. ONE of Guyana’s oldest football clubs, Pele Football Club, yesterday received 22 pairs of Adidas cleats from Sankar Auto Works under its Valvoline brand, to aid the club’s participation in this year’s Kashif and Shanghai Football tournament which kicked off last night

at the Demerara Cricket Club ground. This is the second time the entity (Sankar) has supported the club, having first done so in 2013 and according to the company’s Marketing Executive Dwayne Rodrigues, the sport can only move forward if corporate Guyana invests in clubs.

THE COUNTRY’S fastest and most furious cars will battle one another on Sunday, March 29 at the South Dakota Circuit, Timehri, when the Guyana Motor Racing and Sports Club (GMR&SC) hosts its first drag race event. According to an official from the club, over 50 drivers and cars will take to the circuit to determine who is the fastest in each respective category. When the GMR&SC held its final drag race meet for 2014, Rondell Daby’s Toyota Supra stole the spotlight with the driver wowing the scores of spectators at the South Dakota Circuit, displaying his car’s sublime speed which was unmatched. His brother Peter behind the wheels of

his power-packed Mazda RX7 tried but could not keep up with the car that went on to set a new track record of 8.5 seconds, while the Nazim Gafoor-driven Toyota Glanza was the D-Class top car of last year and it will be interesting to see how things will play out this time around. Narindradutt Bangar’s Toyota Sprinter should feature in the C-Class while Chet Singh, who is known as one of the top drivers on the circuit, should turn out in the B-Class with his Mitsubishi Evo. With the Porta Tree Timing System which is equipped with specialised starting lights and allows quarter-mile speeds to be recorded in use, fans especially those not able to actually see the finish line will be able to keep up to date with the winners and losers on the day.

Rodrigues told the gathering of reporters at Sankar’s Seaforth Street, Campbellville location, that as a company, Sankar Auto Works is always pleased to give a lending hand in areas where it’s much needed, adding that Pele, being one of the foundation football clubs, has always shown professionalism and passion to the sport. He added that Sankar will continue to support the club and wished them the best in the tournament and also asked that they remain a disciplined and committed team.

Marvin Goodman, one of Pele’s executive members thanked Sankar Auto Works for always showing the faith in the club and for not only sponsoring their footwear, but also being committed and believing in their players’ ability. Pele will go into action tonight, when they clash with Grove Hi-Tech at the Victoria Community Centre ground in game one of the double-header which will see Fruta Conquerors and Mahaica Determinators collide in the feature game of the ‘win or go home’ formatted tournament.

25th Kashif and Shanghai Football Tournament … Riddim Squad down N/A United 2-0 to advance

By Rawle Toney IT TOOK extra-time goals for Riddim Squad to oust New Amsterdam United from the 25th Kashif and Shanghai Football tournament which kicked off last evening at the Demerara Cricket Club (DCC) Ground. Rolex Smith and Rashawn Sandiford netted for Riddim Squad in their 2-0 win that will see them play the winner between Western Tigers and HiStars on March 28 at the DCC ground. Meanwhile, in the earlier exchanges, both clubs failed to produce any positive run on goal, leaving their respective supporters frustrated. The play during regulation provided nothing to ‘cheer’ about, forcing it to extra time. It was then Riddim Squad seemed to find a ‘new gear’; pressing forward and forcing the Berbicians to be in defence mode. The Mocha Arcadia-based club’s move eventually gave them success when Sandiford, a guest player, found the net three minutes into extra time (90+3 minutes). Sandiford could have doubled the score shortly after but his attempt went sailing over their attacking goal. With the score 1-0 in their favour, Riddim Squad found their second goal when Rolex Smith broke down the defence, and easily patted home the goal which put the game out of New Amsterdam United’s reach and Riddim Squad into the quarterfinals. New Amsterdam United’s Leonardo Adams, seemingly out of frustration, forced referee Maurice Skeete to hand him a red card after his nasty and unsportsmanlike foul in the closing minutes of the game. Meanwhile, the gala opening ceremony took place after the evening’s first game with Minister of Culture, Youth and Sport Dr Frank Anthony officially declaring the tournament open. Minister Anthony was joined by Prime Minister Samuel Hinds, along with representatives from the various sponsors and the Guyana Football Federation (GFF), to take the salute from the 16 participating clubs. The final game on the tournament’s opening night was contested between Georgetown Football Club (GFC) and Den Amstel but up to press time, results were not ascertained, and, as such, will be given in tomorrow’s edition.

Pele Football Club was adjudged the best dressed team of the march past during the opening ceremony of the 25th Kashif and Shanghai Football tournament.
