Sod turned for US$54M five-star Sun and Sand Hotel ...300 Guyanese to be employed

...investor applauds Guyana’s stable economy By Derwayne Wills W I T H re s p e c t t o t h e US$54M Sun & Sands Hotel, President Donald Ramotar yesterday underscored that development of the hospitality and tourism sectors is inextricably linked to the planned expansion of the Cheddi Jagan International Airport (CJIA).

At the sod turning ceremony of the multimillion dollar five-star hotel at Liliendaal, Greater Georgetown, the President noted that Guyana’s tourism sector and its capacity to host high profile international events is not only dependent on more investments such as the Sun & Sands Hotel, but to a larger extent on the development of airport facilities to handle

such an influx of visitors. Mr. Ramotar observed that development of such infrastructure plays an integral role in societal and economic productivity as prospects are made for linking Guyana with the rest of the world, particularly high priority areas such as Europe, North America and Africa. President Ramotar mounted a call for the maxi-

misation of already existing facilities, such as the National Stadium at Providence, East Bank Demerara, which has the capacity to host large sporting events, and the National Convention Centre at Liliendaal, Greater Georgetown. He however recognised that these developments could only be capitalised on if there exists necessary hospitality infrastructure to host large influxes of visitors. The Head of State affirmed that benefits emerging from the tourism sector would not only be evident in coastal regions, but more importantly the hinterland. “These kinds of investments have a nationwide impact... which will be changing the

visaged approach of promoting community tourism, the President noted that such an undertaking would provide revenue for communities in the hinterland regions, and would pave the way for other communities to follow.

FATF writes Guyana…

Detailed review, new action plan, political commitment among demands By Vanessa Narine

- Outcomes to be discussed at October meeting

THE Financial Action Task Force (FATF) yesterday officially confirmed its decision to commence a targeted review of Guyana, in a letter dated July 9, 2014, prior to its October 2014 plenary meeting. And the international watchdog made it clear that the purpose of this targeted review will be to examine the most significant deficiencies in Guyana’s Anti-Money Laundering and the Countering of the Financing of Terrorism (AML/CFT) framework that pose a risk to the international financial system. According to FATF, its review will identify steps that should be taken to address those deficiencies through the development of an Action Plan. FATF’s letter said, “This review will be conducted by the International Co-operation Review Group (ICRG), Americas Regional Review Group (ARRG), co-chaired by Ms. Darlene Boileau (Canada) and Ms. Maria Fernanda Garcia-Yrigoyen Maúrtua (Peru). “In our capacity as ICRG Co-Chairs, we now request your full cooperation in assisting the ARRG to conduct this work, including by providing up-to-date information on your jurisdiction related to AML and CFT issues as requested by the ARRG co-chairs.” Guyana, according to the letter, will be given an opportunity to review the draft targeted review and to have a face-toface meeting with the ARRG. “Once the Action Plan has been finalised, the FATF will request a written confirmation of your high-level political commitment to fully address the identified strategic deficiencies, including by implementing the Action Plan within the agreed timelines,” the international body said. At its next meeting on 20-24 October, 2014, in Paris, France, the FATF is expected to discuss the results of Guyana’s targeted review. “If the FATF agrees with the recommendations in the targeted review, the FATF will then determine that a public statement regarding your jurisdiction is warranted to address the risks posed by deficiencies in your AML/CFT regime,” the letter said.

“We simply cannot get a meeting. I tried last week and again this week proposing that we meet on June 18, but Mr. Williams has indicated that the APNU members will not be available until after the PNC’s (People’s National Congress) Congress.” Select Committee Chair, Gail Teixeira At the recent June, 2014 FATF Plenary, FATF members agreed that Guyana should be subject to further review with respect to its compliance with the international standards for AML/CFT. This decision was made following up to the referral made by the Chair of the Caribbean Financial Action Task Force (CFATF) received on 10 June 2014. The nomination was based on the lack of progress in addressing strategic deficiencies in Guyana’s AML/CFT regime, which resulted in a series of public statements issued by the CFATF, most

recently on 29 May 2014.

FULL COOPERATION The Attorney-General and Minister of Legal Affairs, Anil Nandlall, to whom the letter was addressed, has since responded to FATF and assured of the Government’s full support during the process. He said, “I take this opportunity to assure you of the Government’s fullest and most unbridled cooperation in assisting the ARRG in the conduct of its work and the discharge of its

functional responsibilities.I remain hopeful for a most fruitful and magnanimous engagement.” The AG also underscored the uphill battle the current Administration has waged in getting the AML/CFT (Amendment) Bill passed in the National Assembly. Nandlall said, “I have no doubt that you are aware of the peculiar historical evolution of Guyana’s inability to effect compliance with international standards for AML/CFT. You would be aware, as well, of the Executive Government’s unassailable commitment to implement the requisite legislative amendments designed to achieve the level of compliance to which you have made reference. “Unfortunately, the Government’s efforts to accomplish this objective have been and continue to be thwarted and frustrated by a Legislature in which the joint Opposition political

“You would be aware, as well, of the Executive Government’s unassailable commitment to implement the requisite legislative amendments designed to achieve the level of compliance to which you have made reference.” AG and Minister of Legal Affairs, Anil Nandlall

parties enjoy a majority vote.” In November 2011, the CFATF first brought to the attention of its members certain jurisdictions — including Guyana — with significant strategic deficiencies in their AML/CFT regimes. The intent was to encourage expeditious rectification of the identified strategic deficiencies. Guyana and the CFATF developed an Action Plan with identified target dates to address the strategic deficiencies that exist in Guyana’s national architecture to combat money laundering and the financing of terrorism. However, the Government and the combined Opposition have been in gridlock over compliance in the areas requiring the passage of legislation. The current Administration has repeated its willingness to have the bill passed, and has demonstrated its commitment to same; but up to the last meeting of the Parliament Special Select Committee no movement had been made with the Bill. NO COMMITTEE MEETING Meanwhile, Chair of the Committee, Ms. Gail Teixeira, told the Guyana Chronicle yesterday that attempts, since June 11, to settle a date for a meeting of the Select Committee has proven futile. According to her, the main Opposition, through Mr. Basil Williams, has repeatedly insisted on A Partnership for National Unity’s (APNU) unavailability to meet. She said, “We simply cannot get a meeting. I tried last week and again this week, proposing that we meet on June 18, but Mr. Williams has indicated that the APNU members will not be available until after the PNC’s (People’s National Congress) Congress.” Teixeira made it clear that while Guyana is now subjected to FATF’s review over the next four months, the country does not have four months to pass the AML/CFT (Amendment) Bill, which she maintains will help Guyana’s case during the review. “We do not have four months. For one, the National Assembly goes into recess from August 10 until October 10, so that leaves us with about a month,” the Committee Chair said. The Bill to meet the requirements of the FATF-Style Regional Bodies (FSRB), CFATF was tabled in the National Assembly in April 2013, but was subsequently referred to a Parliamentary Special Select Committee and eventually voted down by the combined Opposition in November 2013. The bill was re-tabled in December 2013, and was again referred to the Parliamentary Special Select Committee, where it has since been languishing. The last Select Committee meeting was in early June, and up to press time, there has been no confirmation of a date for the next meeting. FATF, the global standard-setter and promoter of policies for anti-money laundering and combating the financing of terrorism (AML/CFT), adopted procedures in June 2009 for identifying and working with jurisdictions with strategic AML/CFT deficiencies. These procedures respond to specific requests of the G-20 Heads of States and Ministers who called upon the FATF to revise and reinvigorate this process and issue regular public updates identifying jurisdictions with strategic AML/CFT deficiencies. This process is managed by the FATF’s ICRG and is aimed at protecting the international financial system from ML and FT risks and encouraging greater global compliance with the international standards for AML/CFT.

Israel ‘to intensify Anger mounts as Gaza attacks’ Germany unearths (BBC News) ISRAELI PM Benjamin Netanyahu has vowed to “further intensify attacks on Hamas” in the Gaza Strip after talks with his defence chiefs. He said the Palestinian militants would “pay a heavy price” for their rocket attacks on Israel. Israel’s military said Hamas had fired 72 rockets at Israeli cities on Wednesday,

after dozens of overnight air strikes in Gaza. Some 40 Palestinians are reported to have died in the recent hostilities. Gaza medical officials say half of the casualties were civilians, a number of them women and children. Hamas has warned that all Israelis are now targets, accusing Israel of violating the Egyptian-brokered truce

second U.S.spy suspect

The military wing of Hamas has vowed that Israel will pay a “tremendous price” for the air strikes

that ended exchanges in 2012. Mr Netanyahu said his government’s campaign in Gaza would continue until firing against Israeli targets stopped. Israeli President Shimon Perez told CNN that a ground offensive in Gaza “may happen quite soon”. Israel has already authorised the callup of up to 40,000 military reservists. The Israeli military said its Iron Dome missile defence system had intercepted 14 of 72 rockets fired on Wednesday, including three above Tel Aviv, three over Ashkelon and three over Ashdod. The town of Hadera 100km (60 miles) north of Gaza, was hit with an M-302 surface-to-surface rocket, the furthest target so far reached. The Israeli military added that it had carried out 129 air strikes in Gaza on Wednesday, bombarding tunnels, rocket launchers and what it said were Hamas command centres. It brings to 550 the number of sites in Gaza attacked as part of “Operation Protective Edge”. Gaza health official Ashraf al-Kedra told AFP news agency that Israeli air strikes on Wednesday had killed four Palestinians in Shejaiya and two in Zeitun - both close to Gaza City - and two more in Beit Hanoun.

(Reuters) - GERMAN politicians reacted angrily on Wednesday to news of a suspected U.S. spy in the defence ministry, which came days after the arrest of a German foreign intelligence agency worker as a double agent. After the federal prosecutors said authorities had conducted searches in connection with a second spying case, Chancellor Angela Merkel’s coalition partners said Washington should remove any U.S. embassy staff involved and cease spying on its ally. Security sources told Reuters the latest suspect was from the military and worked in the defence ministry in Berlin, but no arrest appeared to have been made. The ministry confirmed its premises had been searched but gave no further details. “It is not yet clear what is behind this,” Defence Minister Ursula von der Leyen told the Berliner Zeitung newspaper, in an excerpt of Thursday’s edition. Merkel has already said the arrest last week of a BND foreign intelligence officer for spying for NATO ally the United States would, if confirmed, be a “serious case”. But she also says it will not affect transatlantic free trade talks. The chancellor faces criticism for not taking President

Barack Obama to task sufficiently for surveillance in Germany by the U.S. National Security Agency, which monitored her own mobile phone. The new cases put further pressure on Merkel to react. Yasmin Fahimi, general secretary of the Social Democrats (SPD) who share power with Merkel’s conservatives, urged the “immediate removal of embassy staff involved and the immediate cessation of all other espionage in our country”. Von der Leyen, who is from Merkel’s party, said the NSA case had “shaken confidence” in the United States and it had to be made clear to the intelligence community that “not everything that is possible is politically acceptable”. Merkel’s spokesman Steffen Seibert acknowledged there were “deep differences of opinion” with the United States on how to balance the need for security with civil rights, though German officials stress they are heavily reliant on U.S. intelligence. U.S. Ambassador John Emerson, who had been called in for an explanation of the BND case, met a senior official at the German foreign ministry early on Wednesday to try to help clarify the situation, a ministry spokesman said.

Brazil in shock after World Cup humiliation (BBC News) BRAZILIAN President Dilma Rousseff has urged the country to bounce back after its devastating 7-1 World Cup defeat against Germany. “Like all Brazilians, I am very, very sad after the defeat. But we will not let ourselves be broken,” she tweeted. The coach of the national team Luiz Felipe Scolari called the defeat “the worst day of his life”. Brazilian media reflected the mood of shock on Wednesday, describing the result as a “historic humiliation”. The result was Brazil’s biggest defeat in World Cup finals history. Fans who had paid upwards of $300 (£175) for their tickets were streaming out of the ground in Belo Horizonte at half-time - by which time the Germans were already way out of sight with a commanding 5-0 lead. On Tuesday night, many Brazilians were dealing with defeat in the way they know best - playing music, drinking and staying out on the streets. Others have taken it to heart. Football and the Selecao really do mean that much to them. They’re hurt and humil-

iated. To be fair the writing had been on the wall, it’s just that no-one had expected this World Cup campaign, on home soil, to be extinguished in such a brutal manner. The BBC’s Ben Brown said Brazil fans were in utter shock “I feel bad for all of us for fans and for our players,” Ms Rousseff said, urging Brazilians to “get up, shake off the dust and come out on top”. Some have speculated that the team’s poor showing may affect Ms Rousseff’s chances in the presidential election in October. “Brazil’s historic humiliation has set off a warning signal in Dilma Rousseff’s government, which fears that the bad mood stemming from

the defeat may affect expectations for the economy - already not very favourable - as well as the campaign trail,” a column in the Folha de Sao Paulo newspaper said. It added that fans in the stadium had chanted insults about Ms Rousseff. The German team established a 5-0 lead within just 29 minutes, adding two more goals in the second half. By the end of the match many of the remaining Brazilian fans were cheering the German team. The match was the first time a team had scored seven goals in a World Cup semi-final, and the first World Cup game with eight or more goals since Germany beat Saudi Arabia 8-0 in 2002.

Chief education officer on SEA placement: You must make the marks (Trinidad Guardian) FOR students to gain the top secondary school of their choice they must simply make the marks, said Harrilal Seecharan, chief education officer at the Education Ministry. He was responding to queries by scores of parents that despite their children scoring high marks they were not placed at one of the four schools of their choice. Seecharan was speaking at a press briefing at the ministry at St Clair, Port-of-Spain, yesterday to address concerns about this year’s Secondary Entrance Assessment (SEA) exams results and the scoring of the Continuous Assessment Component (CAC) which accounts for 20 per cent of the final marks. The results were announced last Wednesday and there have been several complaints from parents about school placement for students. “The placement of schools is really based on the overall score that the student got so if the score required to get into the school that the student chose... those top

scores were higher than what the student obtained, then they would fall out,” said Seecharan. Students must score 95 per cent to achieve their first choice, he added. Seecharan said the placement process was automated so as to prevent students from being handpicked for top schools. Saying this placement module was developed and overseen by a regional body, CXC, Seecharan added: “So that it is really based on the score that the student got and how many students would be taken into the school at that time and so the process runs down. “We don’t manually go in and place students.” Education Minister Dr Tim Gopeesingh, speaking at the same event, said the mean score in this year’s SEA for mathematics was 61.3 per cent, language arts 59.8 per cent and creative writing 65.8 per cent. This represented a higher score than that of last year, he added. The mean score for the three new areas — science, drama and character and citizenship — which were introduced for the first time as part of

the continuous assessment component was 88.2 per cent. Gopeesingh said 18,239 students sat the exam this year as compared to 18,036 last year. He said the number of boys writing had almost been the same except for “one or two hundred more writing the exam every year” because more boys had to repeat than girls. The minister said of the students placed in the first 200, there were 67 boys and 133 girls. “This is significant, he said, and also noted: “We had 69 schools accounting for the first 200 students as opposed to, at one time, 41 schools. “So we are having more primary schools gaining places in the first 200 across the country. The results have been very comforting in terms of the performance of our students.” He said this year, the percentage of students who scored above 50, 60 and 90 per cent was the highest for the period 20102014, and conversely, “the percentage of students who attained a score 30 per cent or below in 2014 was the lowest for the period 2010 to 2014.”

Attorney general raps Opposition for criticism of IMF boss Gov’t takes blame for deaths of seven Armadale girls (Jamaica Gleaner) THE GOVERNMENT has accepted legal blame for the deaths of seven girls during a fire at the Armadale Juvenile Correctional Centre in St Ann, five years after the incident. The May 22, 2009 fire at Armadale resulted in the deaths of the seven wards and the injury of many more. In addition to the girls who were killed, the Government has also accepted blame for injury to those who were housed in the dorm where the fire began. The Office of the Children’s Advocate is also pursuing claims for those who were housed in other sections of the facility. Children’s Advocate Di-

ahann Gordon Harrison had taken the Government to court last September over the matter. The Children’s Advocate says her office resorted to court action after negotiations for compensation between itself and the Office of the Attorney General broke down. The matter came up for hearing in the Supreme Court on Monday, but had to be put off because all the relevant documents were not ready. The Office of the Children’s Advocate is contending that the former wards at Armadale were subjected to less than acceptable treatment. Among the declarations being sought are that the girls

had to endure neglect, assault and battery, false imprisonment, and breaches of their constitutional rights. The Office is also seeking punitive, special and aggravated damages, as well as legal cost. A commission of enquiry following the fire found that the girls were being held in inhumane conditions and that the authorities failed to carry out their duties. Queen’s Counsel Jacqueline Samuels Brown represented the Office of Children’s Advocate in court. The matter is set to be called up again in the Supreme Court on October 26, 2015. It is expected to run for 10 days.

(Jamaica Observer) FALMOUTH, Trelawny — Attorney General Patrick Atkinson says the Opposition Jamaica Labour Party’s (JLP’s) crticism of Managing Director of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) Christine Lagarde stems from their annoyance at the IMF’s positive appraisal of the ruling People’s National Party (PNP) Administration. “... So you will find that it galls them (JLP) that this Government is the toast of all the financial institutions around the world. They hold Jamaica up as an example of a country doing the right thing. And so their (JLP) only answer is to criticise, not just criticising us, the Government, they now take to criticising the IMF and to going after Madame Lagarde, personally,” Atkinson argued.

“They realise that the PNP administration is succeeding, and they recognise that if the PNP administration succeeds, dog eat their political ambitions,” he added. Atkinson, who was addressing the public session of the PNP’s North Trelawny constituency conference held at the Falmouth AllAge School on Sunday, was responding to charges by Opposition Spokesman on Finance Audley Shaw that some of the utterances made by Lagarde on her recent visit to Jamaica were controversial and inappropriate. Shaw, addressing a recent Manchester Chamber of Commerce meeting, claimed that the IMF boss crossed the line from being non-political to making statements, which can be construed as political interference. In the meantime, Atkin-

son, who warned that ‘nowadays voters’ cannot be easliy swayed, argued that in a bid to score political points, the Opposition JLP was insincere in its outlook of the Jamaican economy. “I going say it, the Jamaica Labour Party Opposition is disingenuous in their opposition of the economic course that this administration is taking in this country. They are putting politics over the interest of Jamaica,” said Atkinson, who is the member of Parliament for North Trelawny. “I have to tell them that the Jamaican electorate is far more sophisticated than what it was years ago. The people can see through them and the people will hold them to account and will punish them for the stance they are taking,” he added.

EDITORIAL

GUYANA

Great consumer scams CURRENTLY there is an electronic store advertising great bargains with a mini convertible laptop that does the work of a tablet and a netbook, with a multiplicity of functions, like accessing different media sites and other fun things. Earlier this same store had advertised great deals for electronic items, with too good to be true bargains, with hi-tech electronic equipment being sold for approximately half the price they would normally cost. Well, it is too good to be true, because most times the items do not work effectively, or they cease to work after a few days. Take it back? Waste of time and taxi fare, because they always have an excuse why the warranty is not applicable, so the item is not returnable. One woman bought a rice cooker, among a number of other things from a store in Regent Street. While she had bought the rice cooker for herself, the other items were Christmas presents, so she had no idea whether the gifts had

worked and she had forgotten to whom she had given what; a couple of weeks after, she tried to use the rice cooker. She washed the pot, put in rice and water and then switched on the appliance, only to discover that while the power light was indicated as on, the food was not cooking. When she removed the pot she saw the heating apparatus below had been bent out of shape. She took back the item to the store and was treated with much supercilious scorn by the manager and salespersons, all of whom refused to even speak to her, except to make fun of her. The woman was so disgusted that she left the unworkable appliance on the counter and walked away. She then filed a complaint to the Consumers body located in the Ministry of Trade and Tourism building, only to be informed via snail mail that their inspector had inspected the item and discovered that it had been damaged by liquid spilling in. Well, either that inspector works in collusion

with the store owners, or he did not inspect the item before formulating his conclusion, because the water had not even heated up, much less boiled over; but that is moot, because anyone who knows the structure of a rice cooker knows that it is impossible for liquids in the pot to spill and affect the heating mechanism, because it is artfully protected. The woman still has the letter from the Consumers body. She had used a rice cooker for years and it was still working when she bought the new one, because she had decided to give her old one, which was very small, to her bachelor handyman. She subsequently bought another cooker from another store and, a couple of years since then, the second rice cooker she bought is still working perfectly. Someone, not versed in the way of the world, bought a universal computer charger from a supposedly reputable computer and electronic store that is located on Brickdam. The salesperson assured her that she had

a 3-month warranty and that the item was returnable if it became dysfunctional within that timeframe. It became dysfunctional within two weeks, but when she returned it, the manager said that those items only had a seven days’ return policy. A popular Brazilian store in the Regent Street Mall advertises all kinds of miraculous solutions to a multiplicity of problems; so one person went to buy a massage equipment. When he asked for a warranty, he was told they do not issue warranties. He had already made the purchase so he left. Within weeks the item stopped functioning and he is left with no recourse to recoup his money. These stories of the duplicity of business houses and the duped occur on such a regular basis that consumers, especially those who do not like a fuss, have become stoic in accepting such incidents as a fact of life. Even the vendors have

gotten into the act. They offer you “taste and buy”, then give you a very sweet genip to taste, then you decide to buy a ton because the genip they proffer is so sweet and fleshy and you anticipate with relish the enjoyment you would have ensconced in your hammock with a book with which to relax after a hard and tiring day; then you take a bite, preparing to savour the flavour, but instead your hair nearly stands on end because the genip you bite into is more sour than sourree. The trick they play is to buy the sour genip cheaply in bulk, then buy a couple of parcels from another vendor who has luscious genips; which is what they provide to the gullible consumer in their ‘taste and buy’ offers. You eventually discover that

you are literally left holding the bag – proverbially and actually, a bag of inedibly tongue-curling fruit. And they advertise: They put three nearly-rotten mangoes, hidden behind a sign that says “One parcel for $100, then carefully place a luscious four in a parcel prominently displayed in front of the sign. You then hand over your $100, thinking you got a bargain; but you didn’t. You instead receive the three nearly rotten mangoes that had been craftily hidden behind the sign. And the scams continue endlessly, with newly emerging devices winning for the con artists riches beyond compare in some instances. So consumers; take warning and guard your dollars.

Paine’s writings clearly anathema to Hardt IT IS obvious that the greatest American political thinker, Tom Paine, had no influence on the diplomatic training of Ambassador D. Brendt Hardt. But Hardt is not alone in this respect. After all, Tom Paine is held up as an example of everything bad ever since the day he was termed “a dirty little atheist” by Theodore Roosevelt. P a i n e ’s w r i t i n g w a s clearly anathema to Hardt. The speeches by Minister Priya Manickchand and Ambassador Hardt, in my view, brought to the fore the meaning of Freedom and Independence. Hardt’s speech conjured up all the vestiges of colonialism we fought against, while Manickchand’s reply spoke to the lofty princi-

ples and ideals of Freedom and Independence which we fought for and won, and hold so dear to us as a people. In this regard, I am reminded of Tom Paine’s most beautiful statement: “Independence is my happiness and I view all things as they are without regard to place or person. My country is the world and my religion is to do good.” Manickchand’s “No!” to Hardt’s harking back to the colonial era served as a poignant reminder of Mahatma Gandhi’s warning that: “A no uttered from the deepest conviction is better than a yes uttered merely to please or worse, to avoid trouble.” What occurred on that eventful evening at Tur-

keyen was reminiscent of a Governor talking down to the serfs in the type of society that has gone down as backward in the annals of history. Incidentally, come 2016, we will be celebrating the fiftieth anniversary of our country’s Independence. I sincerely hope we will celebrate the occasion in grand style. And that from next year, 2015, Government will launch a countrywide discussion so that the truth will be told of the struggle for Guyana’s Independence. And just as we are witnessing the revelations emanating from the Rodney Commission of Inquiry, in the same way the truth must be told about the real fighters for our country’s Independence.

Those who booed and heckled Manickchand at the Turkeyen residence made no contribution to either the struggle for Independence nor against Burnham’s dictatorial rule; they most likely connived as satraps to their political sponsors to uphold the vestiges of neo-colonialism and bureaucratic capitalism under the much-hated Burnham dictatorship. They must have benefitted enormously during those dark days of its existence. We had Quislings in our midst then, as we have in our midst now. Talk about putting country first? It took a reception at the House of an Ambassador for us to see those who have no faith in the symbols of our Independence ex-

press, in so ugly a fashion, their preference to nibble at the grass nourished by the Hudson and the Potomac Rivers. Their loathsome and disgusting display of anti-nationalism was carried as far as to proudly proclaim that Manickchand did not speak for them, thus raising the question: If Manickchand did not speak for them, then who did? Therein lie their open betrayal of the virtues of nationhood and self-respect for country and people. Apropos, another poignant reminder of the words of our National Anthem: “Dear Land of Guyana, to you will we give; Our homage, our service, each day that we live; God guard you Dear

Mother And make us to be More worthy our Heritage; Land of the Free” Are those who booed and heckled Manickchand truly “worthy of our heritage”? Are they really “heirs of the pains” from whom we were born? Hardt must have been well pleased, as he boarded the plane on his last journey from our beautiful country, that he left behind a cóterie of inveterate critics whose vapid bleatings and platitudinous pretensions at justice merely serve to invoke and imitate those who hold up Tom Paine as the worst example to follow.

PPP concerned with GECOM’s readiness - Commission holds for local government elections different position By Vanessa Narine PEOPLE’S Progressive Party (PPP) General-Secretary, Clement Rohee yesterday stated that the party is not confident in the readiness of the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM) to hold local government elections. Rohee, at the party’s weekly press briefing, at Freedom House, noted that this contention is based on the fact that every eligible voter will not be correctly placed on his/her constituency list. He said, “GECOM has made claim that enough ground work and consultations were done to ascertain boundaries countrywide, declaring publicly that there are 585 constituencies. “It is therefore expected that we should have 585 lists of electors in order to hold local government elections in the 71 local authority areas (LAAS). “The PPP is not confident that this has been done thor-

oughly so as to ensure that every eligible voter will be correctly placed on his/her constituency list.” PHYSICAL VERIFICATIONS According to him, GECOM should do physical verifications within the communities and invite the political party’s representatives to ensure that everyone is placed on their respective list, allowing for a fair and transparent process whenever elections are called. “(This is) something the PPP believes every Guyanese wants and should be respected by GECOM,” he said. Rohee added that with the end of the sixth cycle of continuous registration, which ended on June 21, the claims and objections period is scheduled to begin in August - at which time the party’s concerns with the appropriate placement of voters will be addressed. Therefore, he said, “There is no possibility of local government elections

being held by the due date of August 1, as is stipulated in the bill amended and passed by the one-seat majority in the National Assembly. “Certainly all Guyanese, except for the few misguided ones in the opposition and some in the diplomatic community, clearly support the non-assent to such a bill by his Excellency (President Donald Ramotar), which will clearly offend the constitution of our country.” The General-Secretary also called for the Elections Commission to make a public declaration of what he termed the “sensitive” matter of its Constitutional mandate to ensure that everyone eligible is placed on the official list of electors (OLE), in the interest of ensuring that no one will be disenfranchised. Rohee also declined to commit to a timeline for the calling of local government elections, stating that timelines are “political” and the Elections Commission ought not be restrained by this as it improves its readiness.

He stated too that the party’s concerns have been communicated to GECOM and the PPP is following up the responses to those concerns. GECOM DIFFERS Following the expression of the PPP’s position, the Guyana Chronicle was told by a GECOM source that as far as the Commission is concerned, there is no problem, nor is one envisaged, over the placement of eligible voters on the relative lists at the constituency level. The official added that GECOM has been fulfilling its mandate towards ensuring that no voter is disenfranchised, via the continuous provision of opportunities for eligible persons to apply for registration throughout Guyana. The Guyana Chronicle was told that the recently-concluded continuous registration cycle was publicised through the daily newspapers, TV advertisements, radio messages and even

messages through schools and at grass root levels about the exercise. The Commission went the further mile to also dispatch mobile units to densely populated coastland areas to make the registration process more accessible during the sixth continuous registration cycle. “Any list for an elections, general or local government, will be prepared from the national register of registrants, i.e. the people listed therein, who meet the criteria to be electors for the elections in question. CLAIMS AND OBJECTIONS Further, the Claims and Objections exercise which precedes any elections provide the opportunity for any inaccuracies to be corrected, since it involves the publication of a preliminary list of electors for public scrutiny and legally stipulated actions before the Official List of Electors is finalised,” the source said. GECOM has repeatedly

stated that it has a work-plan to facilitate the holding of local government elections within a timeframe of six months, should local government elections be called. The source said that GECOM stands by this position. The 2014 Budget catered for a $3.3B allocation for the work of the Guyana Elections Commission. Of the allocations, $1.7B is set aside for the Commission and $1.6B for elections administration. Both sums cater to employment costs of 337 employees and other costs, while $126.7M is earmarked for the provision of buildings, a trestle, vehicles, boats, engines, office furniture and equipment. The allocation is intended to allow GECOM to exercise general direction and supervision over the registration of electors and the administrative conduct of all elections of members of the National Assembly, the Regional Democratic Councils (RDCs) and local authorities in Guyana.

PPP congratulates Police Force on 175th anniversary By Vanessa Narine THE ruling party yesterday congratulated the Commissioner and ranks of the Guyana Police Force (GPF) on their 175th Anniversary. And General-Secretary and Minister of Home Affairs, Clement Rohee, noted that the positives and negatives that mark the Force’s operations must be considered together, rather than spotlighting the negatives as a complete reflection of the Force’s entire operations. At the party’s press conference at Freedom House, Robb Street, he said, “The Force’s celebration comes at a time when there is major on-going reforms to ensure modern-day policing is incorporated into its activities. The PPP/C Administration has initiated these reforms with the hope that law enforcement is better able to serve citizens.” According to him, over the last two decades, the Guyana Police Force has benefited from increased resources provided by the Government of Guyana enabling ranks to be better equipped to fight crime. On that note, he gave assurance of the Government’s continued support for the Force. “The PPP wishes to make clear that it will continue to support Government’s efforts of ensuring that adequate resources are provided to the

law enforcement agencies, so they can effectively execute their functions to protect the citizens of our country,” Rohee said. COMMUNITY TIES The General-Secretary noted that the Guyana Police Force has come a long way over the past 175 years and has made strides in heightened collaborations with communities across the country. He said, “We are most encouraged by efforts of ‘A’ Division (Georgetown) Commander and his officers as regards the work they have been doing in the Albouystown, Agricola and Tiger Bay areas. “We are extremely happy at the photo splashes in some sections of the media which show for example the Guyana Police Force Weekly Luncheon at the Agricola School and its collaboration with a corporate entity to mount street signs in Albouystown, under the Force’s Impact Albouystown project. “We see the youths of our country as extremely important to our future and welcome any initiative which seeks to keep them on the right track. We are encouraged at these initiatives taken by the Force to work with young people, which we firmly believe will have a significant impact on the present and our future generations.”

Rohee also commended the ‘B’ Division (Berbice) Commander and the ranks under his charge in that area, for the launch of the Fort Ordinance Youth Group, which was established by the Guyana Police Force ‘B’ Division and the Development Association of Fort Ordinance (DAFO). PARTNERSHIPS He said, “We salute Commanders, other senior officers and ranks at all police divisions who have been working quietly to foster better relationships with the residents of their respective divisions. These are all welcoming signs and show that with partnership anything is possible.” The General-Secretary stressed that closer ties with communities constitute a move in the right direction, as it will foster a better police/ civilian working relationship and by extension, strengthening the community’s confidence in the force. “It is our firm views that for far too long law enforcement and the communities were miles apart, resulting in many controversies between the two sides. We salute this approach taken by at least three recent Commissioners of Police to bring citizens closer to the organisation. The PPP wishes to reiterate its position that working closely with communities

rooms with a casino and restaurants, and will also include a commercial block and Club House of some 45,000 square feet. According to Chandra, the investment will see the creation of jobs for 300 Guyanese. Citing Guyana’s investment potential, Chandra noted that “Guyana is an upcoming country that has a stable economy.” He similarly observed that as Guyana continues to grow economically, the demand for additional services, especially in the hospitality sector, will increase. Set for completion in late 2016, the hotel will provide indirect benefits as it serves as a catalyst for the growing tourism sector through the transferral of knowledge and expertise which will be of substantial value to the Guyanese human resource pool. AIRPORT FACILITIES NECESSARY Commenting on the need for improved aviation facilities, Minister of Tourism, Industry and Commerce (Ag.), Mr. Irfaan Ali, lauded the CJIA expansion as critical to the international recognition by renowned airlines. With the expected arrival of Panama-based COPA Airlines, Minister Ali noted that such a renowned airline would not invest in Guyana’s market unless they had foreseen the possibility of expansion with the potential that Guyana has to offer. “That [willingness to invest] came because of the Government’s investment in expanding the [tourism] sector and in ensuring that we created the interest, the dynamism, and the environment in which these investments are being made,” Minister Ali commented. While the political Opposition continues to set barriers against national infrastructure development, he bemoaned, “We [might] actually need to re-look at the design to cater for another 15 to 20 years with the level of investment we would be having in the sector.” “These investments have indeed created a positive outlook for the sector... [And] are transforming the tourism and hospitality sector,” he added.

is one of the most effective ways in stemming crime, especially at the community level. We have seen over the years, the huge impact community policing has had on crime fighting,” he said. On that note, Rohee called on the Force and citizens to continue to work in this harmonious manner, since such partnerships can only result in a win-win for all involved. The General-Secretary concluded that he and the party is cognisant of the need for more to be done, but made it clear that that there have been laudable successes in the last years.

Accused in the Shoala Gilgeous murder case to know fate today By George Barclay JUSTICE Diana Insanally will, this morning, sum up the evidence to the jury in the Paul Lohing murder trial, after which she would hand them the case for their consideration and verdict. The accused, Paul Anthony Lohing, lost the first round in the legal battle last Tuesday when the judge overruled a defence no-case submission and called upon him for a defence before the jury. At close of the prosecuton’s case, defence lawyer, Mr. Huckumchand had asked the judge to free his client on ground that the prosecution had failed to make out a prima facie case against the accused; but a voir dire determined that issue in the absence of the jury. The prosecution, led in the substantive trial by prosecutrix Miss Natasha Backer, introduced circumstantial evidence in support of the contention that the accused had strangled his lover, Shoala Gilgeous, on August 26, 2012, following a telephone call to the home. Counsel for the accused urged the jury to find that circumstantial evidence had failed to convince anyone that the accused was the killer, and requested them to return a verdict of not guilty. Justice Insanally will begin her summing-up this morning. Lawyers on both sides have already addressed the jury yesterday.

Cabinet gives no objection to countrywide construction/ extension of schools CABINET, last Tuesday, gave its no objection to several contracts in the Education Sector that would see schools being constructed or extended before the school holiday period ends. Head of the Presidential Secretariat, Dr. Roger Luncheon, during his usual post-Cabinet press briefing at the Office of the President in Georgetown, made this disclosure and said: “The usual thing is (that) during holiday, the regional and central government moves apace in their rehabilitation.” He said the West Demerara Secondary School would be extended at a cost of $22.6M; the Friendship Secondary at a cost of $28.7M; St. Ignatius Primary at a cost of $15.6M; Wauna Primary in Region 1 at a cost of $16M; Lancaster Primary in Region 5 at a cost of $18.5M; and Tutorial Academy in New Amsterdam at a cost of $19.67M. Luncheon also announced that a new primary school would be constructed in Cummings Park at a cost of $30.8M (Telesha Ramnarine)

CARICOM initiative on standards in the gold jewellery sector now compulsory requirement By Telesha Ramnarine THE specifications of gold in the jewellery sector which were adopted by Guyana in 2010 as part of a CARICOM initiative -- “that were adopted as recommended and voluntary” -- have now been made compulsory by Cabinet. “What that means is that from henceforth, the producers (and) the retailers would be obliged to adopt these standards, and a major feature of these standards is the provision to the purchaser of information that deals with the carat content of the material and the alloys used in perfecting the structure of the utensil,” Cabinet Secretary, Dr. Roger Luncheon explained. Speaking at his usual post-Cabinet press briefing at the Office of the President, in Georgetown, Luncheon said that, in 2010, there was no compulsion on the jewellers and those who worked with gold for ornamental purposes to abide by these standards. “Those standards had quite a bit to do with the carat (the amount of gold in a specimen) and it also had to do with alloys that had to be used to make the gold utensils, articles, more malleable for the purposes of the design,” he said. He informed that Cabinet, at its meeting last Tuesday, was provided with a presentation from Minister Irfaan Ali on the status from 2010 to now. “He indicated that after a series of consultations and engagements with stakeholders in this sector of the retail gold economy, there was an understanding reached, based on which Cabinet made those standards absolute, compulsory. “So, from henceforth, the gold jewellers and the retailers of gold jewellery would be under a legal obligation to make available to purchasers of their products information about these standards. They are now compulsorily enforceable, and (are) being applied by the investigators of the Bureau of Standards,” Dr. Luncheon disclosed.

Old Kai: Chronicles of Guyana…

Concerns about voter irregularity at upcoming PNCR/APNU Congress CONCERNS about voter irregularity plagues yet another PNCR=APNU Congress and it seems the assault of women is becoming habitual as Old Kai recalls the physical assault of an elderly woman in the lead-up to the party’s last Congress. Old Kai was never in doubt as to what will play out at the upcoming PNCR Congress which is ironically being held under the theme, “PNCR for national unity governance and development.” In this day and age, the party continues to be plagued with accusations of rigging elections, as was the cry of many at its last congress and its congress before that. Surprise, surprise; we are now being told by the media that when questioned on concerns currently about the non-issuance of party cards to certain members, which is what will entitle them to vote, the party said ‘no comment.’ This no doubt will raise serious concerns and it will seriously question their commitment to democratic practices and norms, as some are of the opinion that the results of voting has already been finalised internally, before the process has commenced. With the party’s rich tradition of rigging general elections, complemented by similar concerns at past congresses, Old Kai fears this may be a

distinct possibility. Then there is the controversial suspension of MP Vanessa Kissoon, from Linden, who reportedly is supporting the Aubrey Norton faction, which will challenge Granger and his group for the leadership of the party. This was made more obvious as the reason for Kissoon’s suspension was an altercation she had with General Secretary Oscar Clarke, in which she claims that she was assaulted. Clarke, who is a member of the Granger/Corbin faction, was surprisingly not sanctioned in the sordid affair. That is ‘national unity’ for you, PNCR style. It appears that party members falling out of favour with the leadership and being assaulted at Congress Place is becoming the norm; let us not forget the fate which befell Haslyn Parris a few years ago. Then there was also the physical assault of an elderly woman by a member of the party’s youth arm at its Region 4 conference in 2010. Addressing the Conference before it had concluded, PNCR leader Robert Corbin was quoted as stating that the incident was “…contrary to the well-known policy of the party,” which is totally against any form of violence and abuse against women in society. Old Kai wonders if the party’s position and policy on women has changed today, after not only the assault of Vanessa Kissoon, but her subsequent suspension.

It therefore comes as no surprise that former leading member of the PNCR, Dr. Faith Harding, has lost faith in the PNCR and by extension, APNU. The former PNC Minister of Public Service was quoted in a Guyana Times article on June 20, 2014, as saying that she would decline any attempt at reconciliation, given “the current group that is managing the party.” Dr. Harding, who was an Executive Member and a Leadership Candidate of the party at its last congress, had stated that the objectives being pursued by the party, at the moment, were not in the interest of Guyana’s overall development. She is not the only one who apparently feels this way, as yesterday I noted the comments of Linden resident and PNCR supporter Brenda Bowman, who said she has lost hope in the party and also had a message for the leadership, “I just want Mr. Granger to know that Region 10 doesn’t trust him anymore. He’s playing politics with people’s lives in Linden and the country on the whole. I think he needs to get a grip of himself.” What all this does is confirm that the PNC/R leadership is dead-set in its ways, and would go to any lengths to sideline any opposition of its machinations. These are the very people who want us to place the future of Guyana into their hands once again.

Rohee chides Ramjattan for ‘throwing stones while living in a glass house’ By Vanessa Narine LEADER of the Alliance For Change (AFC) party, Khemraj Ramjattan, was yesterday chided for figuratively “throwing stones (at the ruling party) while living in a glass house”. General-Secretary of the People’s Progressive Party (PPP), Clement Rohee, said Ramjattan should be the last to engage in the practice. “Mr. Ramjattan should be the last to threaten anybody, because people (who live) in glass houses should not throw stones. He has a huge glass house around him, especially in respect to the Specialty Hospital,” Rohee said.

Fielding questions at the party’s weekly press conference held at Free-

General-Secretary Clement Rohee dom House on Robb Street, Rohee spoke on the ‘prom-

ise’ of the AFC leader to lay a formal complaint with the police against Fi-

Khemraj Ramjattan nance Minister Dr. Ashni Singh over what he terms ‘illegal spending’ from the

Consolidated Fund. Rohee stressed that if such a complaint is made, the police force has the capacity to investigate the matter -and any other crime, for that matter. “The police have the capacity to investigate any crime or complaint,” Rohee said. Dr. Singh has gone to lengths to defend the legality of his actions; and at his last press conference, he underscored that the legitimacy of the expenditure is unquestioned. The Finance Minister pointed out that, through the Constitution, there are three mechanisms to ex-

pend public funds: * The Consolidated Fund – where expenditures must be approved by Parliament, the latter being defined as the 65-member National Assembly and the President; * Statements of Excess – where foreseen expenditure not budgeted for or under-budgeted can be expended under the Minister of Finance’s authority; and * The Contingency Fund – a sub-fund under the Consolidated Fund, from which monies spent can be spent, but under “urgent, unavoidable and unforeseen” circumstances.

Dr. Singh stated that the Constitution, inherited from the former People’s National Congress (PNC) Administration, is crystal clear regarding public spending and the legal parameters within which this is done. “There is no deficiency in the language of the Constitution. The Constitution is crystal clear…there is no lack of clarity,” he said. The Finance Minister maintains his contention that all public spending advanced by the current administration has been done within the stated legal parameters, and can withstand any level of scrutiny.

Pastor Miggings declares God’s concern for the Guyana Police Force – at service held to mark GPF 175 anniversary

Member of the religious community and Chairperson of proceedings, ASP Scipio

By Asif Hakim POLICE ‘A’ Division yesterday hosted a church service at the Brickdam Police Station in celebration of the Guyana Police Force’s 175th Anniversary. In attendance were Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Home Affairs, Ms. Angela Johnson; Police Commissioner (ag) Seelall Persaud; Commander of ‘A’ Division, Senior Superintendent Clifton Hicken; Traffic Chief, Superintendent Hugh Denhert; GPF Training Officer, Superintendent Paul Williams; Deputy Commander of ‘A’ Division, Superintendent Dion Moore; Traffic Officer of ‘A’ Division, Superintendent Calvin Brutus; officers in charge of various sub- divisions, subordinate officers and various religious leaders. Pastor Patrick Miggings from Den Amstel, West Coast Demerara encouraged the GPF to keep up the good work it is doing, and said that each and every one of the officers is a minister and servant of God. He urged the GPF to continue praying and everything would go the way they want it to go. “God, who made man, did not make the body first; He made the spirit. We live

in a world of network, and we need to bring our lives together. God is a God of relationship, and as police officials, you all need a good relationship with Him,” the pastor admonished. He also told the Force that they can’t continue with ‘the same old’, that if they want to see miracles in the Force, they must give God thanks. “Give thanks and ev-

erything will be given unto you. It’s time the earthly boss listens to the ‘bigger boss’. God is concerned about the Guyana Police Force. Not everyone who smiles with you likes you. When you are promoted, do not occupy that seat until you invite God,” the pastor admonished. That church service saw members of the GPF be-

ing preached the Word of God and being blessed. The Force continues to move from strength to strength, not only in ‘A’ Division, but throughout the other divisions. Chairperson of the programme, Assistant Superintendent Althea Scipio, adjured those gathered to develop the Force and work hard for its suc-

Date would not be extended for electronic updating of NIS records By Telesha Ramnarine CABINET Secretary, Dr. Roger Luncheon yesterday said that Cabinet has rejected any suggestion of an extension to its December 31, 2014 deadline by which the National Insurance Scheme (NIS) must complete verification of its records that were recently made electronic. Luncheon recalled at his weekly post-Cabinet press briefing at the Office of the President, in Georgetown that the verification exercise is all that is left as the 15 million outstanding contribution records have already been updated and uploaded electronically. “In June, Cabinet had issued a deadline of December 31 by which the NIS would have converted all of its records of contri-

butions made to the electronic system. The obvious purpose behind this Cabinet directive was to ensure contributors benefited from payments of these contributions. “As it is right now, benefits are computed from the electronic database, and not from the totality of payments made. So if you have a portion of your contribution records off the electronic database, more often than not, unless great diligence is applied, it wouldn’t be used in computing benefits. “This specific deficiency has brought the NIS into considerable disfavour with the general public, particularly with contributors when, specifically at the age of retirement, contributions are missing,” Luncheon remarked. He said Cabinet has

recognised that the scheme would be hard pressed to complete the verification exercise within the stipulated time, but is still not willing to consider an extension date. Cabinet is, nevertheless, resolved to make available all of the resources necessary for the successful completion of this mission, he said. At his previous press conference, Luncheon had said that electronic storage provides for processing of benefits. “It is extremely difficult to process benefits on the basis of paper. The manual search for paper records to process benefits unquestionably has denied contributors, whether short-term or long-term; definitely has frustrated and contributed to the wealth of appeals -- thousands of them -- in the system, incubating,

Fifty-three blindfolded bodies found in Iraq as political leaders bicker (Reuters) - IRAQI security forces found 53 corpses, blindfolded and handcuffed, south of Baghdad on Wednesday as Shi’ite and Kurdish leaders traded accusations over an Islamist insurgency raging in the country’s Sunni provinces. Officials said dozens of bodies were discovered near the mainly Shi’ite Muslim village of Khamissiya, with bullets to the chest and head, the latest mass killing since Sunni insurgents swept through northern Iraq. “Fifty-three unidentified corpses were found, all of them blindfolded and handcuffed,” Sadeq Madloul, governor of the mainly Shi’ite southern province of Babil, told reporters. He said the victims ap-

peared to have been killed overnight after being brought by car to an area near the main highway running from Baghdad to the southern provinces, about 25 km (15 miles) southeast of the city of Hilla. The identity and sectarian affiliation of the dead people was not immediately clear, he said. Sunni militants have been carrying out attacks around the southern rim of Baghdad since spring. In response, Shi’ite militias have been active in rural districts of Baghdad, abducting Sunnis they suspect of terrorism, many of whom later turn up dead. The tit-for-tat attacks have escalated dramatically since Sunni Islamist fighters seized control of large parts

of northern and western Iraq last month, sweeping towards Baghdad in the most serious challenge to the Shi’ite-led government of Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki since the withdrawal of U.S. forces in 2011. Mass killings of scores of victims have become a regular occurrence in Iraq for the first time since the worst days of sectarian and ethnic cleansing in 2006-2007. The Sunni insurgents, led by the group known as the Islamic State which considers all Shi’ites heretics who must repent or die, boasted of killing hundreds of captive Shi’ite army troops after capturing the city of Tikrit on June 12. They put footage on the Internet of their fighters shooting prisoners.

tabase should have been done a long time ago, and that this time around, dili-

gence would be applied to ensure completion of this exercise in its entirety.

Forensic lab slated for July 14 opening THE National Forensic Laboratory at Turkeyen, the first of its kind in Guyana, is scheduled to be commissioned on July 14, according to Home Affairs Minister Clement Rohee. Yesterday, at the ruling party’s press conference at Freedom House on Robb Street, Minister Rohee fielded questions on the status of the lab’s completion. He stressed that the lab is “ready to go”, and assured that the facility would not be a “white elephant”, but would service the needs of the Guyanese people. Rohee said that more than 20 persons have already been recruited to work at the lab, following the placement of advertisements in the local dailies, their review by a panel, and their referral to the Public Service Commission. Rohee added that, while the lab is not ready for full occupancy, staffers will base their operations from the Implementation Unit of the Citizen Security Programme (CSP) at Ogle, East Coast Demerara. The $840M lab was launched under the CSP, which was initiated by the Government and the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB). This programme has three components: institutional modernisation of the Home Affairs Ministry; Community Action Component (CAC); and modernisation of the Guyana Police Force, which includes strengthening of its forensic capability. A bill was laid in the National Assembly in 2013 to amend the Evidence Act to provide a legal person for the laboratory. The Evidence Bill, which was introduced by the Home Affairs Minister to the National Assembly, was voted down by the Parliamentary Opposition in June. Minister of Legal Affairs, Anil Nandlall, on December 13, re-tabled the Evidence (Amendment) Bill in the National Assembly, and it was passed by the National Assembly in January, allowing for the expansion of the category of evidence that can be admitted in court for legal proceedings. The Bill states that the documents to which Section 43 of the Evidence Act applies will now include a certificate or report signed by an analyst who has examined or analysed, for example, a firearm, a poisonous substance, human blood, bone or tissue, and a certificate would be issued by the National Forensic Lab.(Vanessa Narine)

Guyana will await findings of CARICOM marijuana commission - Rohee

By Vanessa Narine

THE Caribbean Community (CARICOM) Heads of Government, at its recently concluded 35th meeting of regional leaders in Antigua and Barbuda, agreed on the establishment of a Regional Commission on marijuana use. And Home Affairs Minister, Clement Rohee, in an invited comment yesterday, stated that his position on the matter is to await the report of the Commission’s work. “We will have to await the report from the Commission,” he said. ZERO-TOLERANCE Rohee, in January, had

reaffirmed the Government of Guyana’s zero-tolerance policy on all drugs that are deemed illicit, including marijuana, whose legalisation has recently sparked significant debate at the international level. According to him, Government has not discussed the issue and it is unclear when it would do so. Rohee had said, “As we speak at this point in time, at twenty minutes to five, on the twenty-eighth day of January, the position and the policy of the government of Guyana is to pursue a zero-tolerance policy in respect of trafficking in narcotics, possession of narcotics and any other form of activity in respect of drugs that are deemed illegal

according to the laws of our country and according to the treaties and conventions of an international nature which we have signed onto.” “…until such time that the policy changes, some point in time, whoever is responsible for this matter will announce the time, the date and the policy of the government. “…it remains illegal here and up until those changes, we will actively pursue those who cultivate and supply it.” The Minister was at the time speaking at the launch of the National Drug Report for 2012, compiled by the Task Force on Narcotic Drugs and Illicit Weapons, at his Brickdam Office. According to the report,

cannabis and cocaine continue to be the two main types of illicit drugs which are being trafficked and consumed locally, based on the seizures. However, confiscation of small quantities of ecstasy, heroin, and hashish over the past two years has been a new development. During 2012, CANU made seizures amounting to 103 kilogrammes (kg) and 660g of cocaine (with a value of $93,600,000) and 111kg and 564g of cannabis (with a value of $20,160,000).

During this period 33 cases were made out and 36 persons were charged. Meanwhile, the Guyana Revenue Authority’s enforcement unit seized 561kg and 780g of cocaine ($504,900,000) for which two cases were made and two were charged. In total, 151 people were charged for cocaine trafficking and/or consumption from 139 cases. DECRIMINALIZATION Meanwhile, Guyana-born United States-based security

expert, Dr. Ivelaw Griffith, during a recent visit here advocated the decriminalisation of marijuana. The Regional Commission on Marijuana is expected to conduct a rigorous enquiry into the social, economic, health and legal issues surrounding marijuana use in the Region and to advise whether there should be a change in the current drug classification of marijuana, thereby making the drug more accessible for a range of users.

Gov’t expects greater returns from police stations dealing with domestic violence - Rohee - $296.6M spent on remodelling stations to accommodate victims

By Leroy Smith HOME AFFAIRS Minister Clement Rohee made it clear to members of the Guyana Police Force that the Ministry of Home Af-

fairs is not one hundred percent satisfied that more is being done at the level of the police stations in dealing with cases of domestic violence. Rohee said that while it

is understood that the handling of domestic violence can be difficult, on some occasions, he is of the view that sufficient training has been provided to members of the Guyana Police Force

to respond and deal with the reports of domestic violence. He spoke of the investment by the Government of Guyana through the Ministry of Home Affairs where eighteen police stations have been remodelled under the Citizen Security Programme to deal

port in a comfortable, confidential and user-friendly environment. Prior to the remodelling of the police stations, persons who visited the stations to make reports of domestic violence were forced to make those reports at the front desk in the presence of members

A key feature of the remodelling of the police stations was the construction of specially prepared rooms for victims of domestic violence to make their report in a comfortable, confidential and userfriendly environment. with this issue. The total cost of the investment, Rohee recalled, is a whopping $296.6M. The minister made the comment recently while addressing senior and junior ranks of the Force at the launching of a training workshop which also catered for other representatives of the Joint Services. According to the Minister of Home Affairs, a key feature of the remodelling of the police stations was the construction of specially prepared rooms for victims of domestic violence to make their re-

of the public. As part of the investment by the Government in creating these special interviewing rooms under the CSP, there was special and expert training provided to several police officers in receiving and acting on the reports of persons affected by domestic violence. Rohee also encouraged the police officers to ensure that members of the public, particularly those who are victims of intrafamilial violence, get value for the money that the government invested in the programme. He pointed to statistics

Navin Chandarpal ill

collected by his ministry indicating that domestic violence reports were on an average of 4,825 annually over the past five years. The minister went on to say that what has also been proven is that for 2011, in only three out of every ten reports of domestic violence were the offenders charged. In 2012, the data indicated that in five out of ten reported cases of domestic violence were the offenders charged while for 2013 in six out of every ten reported cases were the offenders charged. This, Rohee said, proves that increased charges for offenders of domestic violence would result in the decline in numbers of the offences being reported. FIRM POLICE RESPONSE He said that while recognising there may be many other variables which may be responsible for the ratings, the ministry was told that when the police are firm in their response to domestic violence it helps in the reduction in the proliferation of the offence. Rohee added that it sends a very clear signal that domestic violence and abuse will not be condoned at any level of the Guyana Police Force.

HEAD of the Presidential Secretariat, Dr. Roger Luncheon yesterday said the best is being hoped for in connection with Office of the President’s (OP) Presidential Advisor, Navin Chandarpal who is currently battling cancer. Luncheon was speaking with reporters following his weekly post-Cabinet press briefing at OP, in Georgetown. NAVIN CHANDARPAL “He is deteriorating but I am told he is much better. He is out of the Intensive Care. I actually believe he is home with his family in New York and getting outpatient treatment,” Luncheon informed. Chandarpal once served as Minister of Agriculture.

Freak accident highlights need for drivers to heed ‘Five Cs’ - need for care, courtesy, consideration, caution and commonsense

A FREAK accident on Tuesday night at Geod Fortuin, West Bank Demerara, left a truck, GSS 5263, in a ditch. The accident slowed the evening’s traffic flow, while public-spirited citizens moved to assist the driver in offloading drums of an unidentified substance, thought to be kerosene, from the truck’s tray. Tuesday night’s incident was fortunately without fatality, but underscored the need for drivers to heed the ‘Five Cs’: care, courtesy, consideration, caution and commonsense. This has been the fifth in a series of non-fatal accidents on the West Bank/West Coast corridor in the last two

weeks. The Guyana Police Force’s (GPF) Traffic Department has recorded 103 accidents with 112 deaths, with 10 being children for 2013. The Department’s statistics on road accidents, as at May this year, indicated that some 54 have been killed, seven of whom were children, while a number of persons have been seriously injured, although it is only mid-year. Pedestrians, pedal cyclists and motorists remain the most vulnerable to fatalities and road accidents. Speeding continues to be a major contributory factor to fatal accidents, despite police traffic enforcement activities during

National Assembly sits today - second readings of historic Education Bill and Summary Jurisdiction (Appeals) (Amendment) Bill among major issues

By Vanessa Narine THE National Assembly sits today and among the major issues at today’s session are the second readings of the historic Education Bill and the Summary Jurisdiction (Appeals) (Amendment) Bill. The Customs (Amendment) Bill is also up for a second reading and was re-tabled in the National Assembly after the Caribbean Court of Justice (CCJ) ordered the Government of Guyana to repay to a Surinamese beverage company more than $1.2B (US$6M) for charging environmental tax on its imports of beverages into Guyana. The CCJ ruling followed the rejection of the Bill by the combined Opposition, which voted it down in 2013. Additionally, the Broadcasting (Amendment) Bill is up for a first reading after being deferred several times. Members of Parliament (MPs) today will entertain a motion to formally express the sympathies of the House in wake of the passing of A Partnership for National Unity (APNU) MP and former deputy Speaker, Ms. Deborah Backer. Six questions, one for oral reply, are also on the agenda - the most controversial issue being on the benefits for former President, Dr. Bharrat Jagdeo. Today’s sitting commences at 2:00pm.

‘Unpatriotic negativism’ hurts tourism sector – Minister Irfaan Ali

Guyana’s tourism potential is overshadowed by “unpatriotic negativism.” Minister Ali made this comment yesterday during the sod turning ceremony for the 290,000 square foot five-star luxury hotel to be constructed at Liliendaal, Greater Georgetown. Present at the ceremony were President Donald Ramotar, Minister Ali, and Director of the Sun and Sand Group of Companies, Mr. Bhushan Chandra, as well as other notable public officials and members of the diplomatic corps. Coming on the wings of Guyana’s recognition by renowned broadcast entities: the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC), Discovery Channel and the History Channel, Minister

triotic or care about national development when you are not concerned about promoting Guyana in a positive light, [especially] when the only thing that resides on your mind is to have a negative headline every morning.” Recognition of this fact, minister Ali mentioned, has seen Jamaica securing a vibrant tourism industry with the help of its media that clearly “understands the importance of safeguarding their country.” In the case of Guyana, the Minister continued, “We sometimes shatter ourselves with the unpatriotic negativism [especially] from some sections of the media.” Ali underscored that there is an important role which the media play

vironment that is conducive to promoting profitability with notable returns to the country’s economy. IMPROVED HOSPITALITY On the prospects of an anticipated Hospitality Institute, Minister Ali pointed to Government’s $800M investment in the training and development of the human resource capacity and functioning capability in the sector. The institute will provide adequate training for world-class personnel to meet the demands from the growing industry. The minister rejected claims made in the media that meagre investments have been injected in the tourism sector and called on doubting persons “to point to a single country within the Region that is investing more heavily in tourism infrastructure than Guyana at this point in time.” According to him, “returns for investments

are already coming in.” The hospitality institute is set to create almost 100 new jobs in the economy and would see a “trickle-down effect of $1.6B... [Which] would ensure not only that we are capable of training Guyanese to work within our own sector, but it will be of an international standard that will attract students from across the Caribbean,” minister Ali added. He lauded the entry of the Marriott Hotel into the Guyana hospitality market as a transformative move which has “stimulated many other investments in the tourism and hospitality sector.” The Tourism Minister conclusively welcomed the entry of the Sun & Sand Hotels and reaffirmed the Guyana Government’s vision, strategy and commitment to develop, promote and ensure sustainability of a sector that will thrust Guyana’s economic development forward.

INVESTOR CONFIDENCE Also speaking at the event was President Donald Ramotar, who disclosed that investment in Guyana’s tourism and hospitality sectors reflect the “tremendous confidence that the business community... has in our country.” Mr. Ramotar pointed out that such confidence shows that the Government’s willingness to facilitate and encourage investments and to promote a healthy business environment has borne fruit which

Nyozil Goodman, 34, a teacher at St. Stanislaus College, went missing on Sunday evening after a basketball game at the National Gymnasium, Mandela Avenue. She, along with another teacher, accompanied students from her school to the games. And she told them later to make their way home as someone was to pick her up. She has not been seen since. Her brother, Nestor Thompson, said that he last spoke to his sister Sunday afternoon. Efforts to reach her on her cell phone were futile and he was told by Digicel that the last time her phone was active was on Sunday at 23:00hrs. Goodman is five feet five inches tall, dark brown in complexion, and she lives on William Street, Kitty.

Anyone with information about her is asked to contact her brother on telephone number 6924526, or the nearest police station.(Asif Hakim)

Speaking to the large gathering of parents, guardians, teachers and well-wishers at the graduating exercise and awards ceremony, First Lady Deolatchmee Ramotar urged that students take every step of their education seriously. “This is only the beginning of your education. All that you have learnt here will form the basis for your secondary education and life as a whole,” she confided. She also emphasised: “If you are to be successful adults, it is vital to study and equip yourself with a good education. In fact, I am of the conviction that it is no longer sufficient to have a basic level education in this world; almost every job requires that a person have at least a first degree.”

ing in regard to the children’s education, and urged them to continue to play a part in their children’s education, as this will give the children additional encouragement that would be needed for their success in life. Also speaking at the awards ceremony, Region 3, Chairman Julius Faerber congratulated the students, and urged them to continue to be diligent where their education is concerned. Head Mistress Vashti Paul announced that thirty-one students graduated from Mc Gillivray Primary, with thirty of them being awarded places in secondary schools. She said the school recorded an overall 77% pass rate for the National Grade Six Assessment (NGSA) examinations of 2014, and Arian Ramdharie, who obtained

Ms. Paul congratulated the graduates on a job well done, and challenged the other students to better this year’s performance. Paul

said that within her one year tenure at the school, she has much to be proud of, especially since one of the students has been placed within the top 100 students who wrote the NGSA 2014. The Headmistress also related that, recently, one of the teachers on staff graduated from the Cyril Potter College of Education. “During the

year, one teacher improved her qualifications, Ms. Onica Hinds; she is now a Class One Grade One teacher.” Ms. Paul also mentioned that a computer laboratory had been constructed in 2013, but the school has only now been able to furnish it with the necessary equipment. She said also that other rehabilitation works were

done to upgrade the school’s building and environment. In brief remarks, top graduating student Arian Ramdharie thanked her parents, relatives, and teacher Ms. Onica Hinds for aiding in her success. She also urged her colleagues to better this year’s performance, and encouraged them to study and study hard.

Post-mortem on bloated ‘Blacka’ body Three fishing crews concludes death due to overdose of tablets robbed at gunpoint

By Michel Outridge

A POST-MORTEM performed yesterday on the body of the late Terron Watts, which was found decomposed and bloated floating in the Lama Canal (Blacka) on Sunday, concluded that the former male nurse had died of an overdose of tablets. Relatives yesterday said they were told he had ingested a quantity of tablets, but they could not say what kind and how much.

Dead: Terron Watts

They speculated that he had jumped into the Lama Canal thereafter, hence, his body was found on Sunday by residents who had gone there for a swim. He had been reported missing prior to the discovery of his body. Wa t t s , w h o abused drugs and had domestic problems, had

left home in a fit of rage on July 6, jumping the fence following a row with his parents at their Cummings Lodge residence. His mother had tried to rehabilitate him, but to no avail; and had even taken him to the GPHC Psychiatric Ward, where he had been an inmate for several days. Watts, described as a good swimmer, had been a male nurse attached to the New Amsterdam Hospital in Berbice, and had attempted suicide three years ago by ingesting some tablets. His expectant girlfriend is residing at his mother’s home.

offshore Region 1

By Michel Outridge A GROUP of East Coast Demerara fishermen have been traumatised by a high-seas gunpoint robbery in the Atlantic Ocean in the vicinity of Waini on Saturday last. An owner of one of the three fishing boats involved in the mishap, speaking yesterday on the basis of anonymity, told this publication that it is very difficult to replace the two 48-horsepower engines, two Global Positioning System (GPS) and three cell phones that had been taken from them. Last Saturday, the three fishing boats were in the Region 1 Barima/Waini) area closest to the Pomeroon River, when a small red boat, equipped with an engine with two masked gunmen, came up alongside the fishing boats and demanded that the crew take off their engines, GPS and other valuables, and hand same over to them. Although the crewmen were not hurt, the incident has had a troubling effect on them, but since fishing is their livelihood, they will return to fish as soon as they can replace their engines, which cost $960,000 each, and the GPS, each valued at $23,000. After the incident, the boats were left to drift, but were rescued by passing fishing boats, and the crewmen were taken to Charity Police Station, where a complaint was lodged. The men were told that the Guyana Defence Force (GDF) Coast Guard would also assist in the probe. One of the fishing boat owners yesterday told this publication that they cannot go back to fish because it is impossible to raise money to purchase engines for their boats. They are therefore seeking assistance in this regard. The pirates, however, were not interested in their catch, because after they had been given the boat engines, they sped off. The police are reportedly investigating the incident.

Aries - March 21 - April 19 Taking action is to be taken seriously. Do not move forward just because you're afraid to stand still right now -- especially in romantic situations. Everything must happen in its own time, and you should definitely not rush things. Take advantage of opportunities, but don't push your agenda too strongly today. Waiting for the right moment to act will teach you patience and help you appreciate forward momentum (when it returns) all the more. Taurus - April 20 - May 20 When you're driving in your car, you realise that you are not the only driver on the road -- after all, you must be aware of what other people are doing to be as safe as you can be. This awareness should apply to all areas of your life right now. Take note of who is around you and how they are behaving. Be careful of how others may affect day's scheduled route. Plan a detour, just in case. Gemini - May 21 - June 21 If you feel as though the circumstances of your life are not under your control right now, you're right -- but only to a point. Granted, there are certain things you can't change -- and it would be very helpful to resign yourself to the facts. But there are also quite a few malleable points you aren't seeing right now. To open your eyes a little wider, expose yourself to new ways of doing things. Experiment with unusual activities and different types of entertainment. Cancer - June 22 - July 22 One of the best acts of self-nurturing is to be honest with yourself. This includes being honest about what you really need right now. If your energy level has been waning, then you need time to recharge your batteries -- give it to yourself. Or if you've had more energy than you know what to do with, then you need to get organised -- prioritise your workload today, and use that energy in a focused, efficient manner. Leo - July 23 - August 22 You are in desperate need of some stimulating input today, and you should look to one of your especially fiery friends for a great big dose of it! Get out there with him or her and explore as much of the world as possible. Indulge your growing passion for travel with a road trip way beyond your normal boundaries. The two of you are a star team, capable of charming the grumpiest of strangers and having tons of fun in just about any situation -- even a traffic jam. Virgo - August 23 - September 22 People you want to impress are amazed at your ability to commit, so don't take it for granted. You know what you want right now, so stick with it -- despite the hecklers in the audience. Everyone has doubts once in a while, but you won't let these little worries make you dodge responsibility -- too much is at stake. The long-term success of your plans requires you to prove yourself right now. Keep your eye on the prize and just keep on keeping on. Libra - September 23 - October 22 The time for exploring new ideas has passed. It will come around again soon enough, but today you have to curb your wanderlust and stick close to home. Instead of seeking out new faces and new places, you have to learn to appreciate the known and familiar. Today offers you a wonderful opportunity to communicate your ideas to the people who really understand you. They can give you beneficial constructive criticism and help you build something that will last. Scorpio - October 23 - November 21 Getting caught up in the moment and acting impulsively is not only okay today -- it is highly recommended! Throw all your caution to the wind, and watch it fly away -you won't be needing it for a while. You are in a very safe place and have surrounded yourself with trustworthy people. Your spontaneous energy will encourage new ideas and keep everything going in the right direction -- and it will help you stay positive when you encounter a couple of little bumps along the way. Sagittarius - November 22 - December 20 There can be no such thing as too much happiness in your life, although today the amount of jovial and happy energy coming your way could overwhelm you. You're lucky you have problems like this, so be grateful for the embarrassment of riches you're currently enjoying. Reaching out to other people is important today, especially since you have so much positive energy to share. If you've been working at turning someone's head, it may happen today. Capricorn - December 21 - January 19 There's a threatening gray cloud of pessimism just over the horizon. Its power over your life will increase exponentially with each negative person you encounter today, so try to stick with people who always see the bright side of life and who are good at cheering you up. Stay away from naysayers who tell you the things you want to do can't be done. Because the truth is, anything that you can think of can happen -- if you persevere. Aquarius - January 20 - February 18 There's a threatening gray cloud of pessimism just over the horizon. Its power over your life will increase exponentially with each negative person you encounter today, so try to stick with people who always see the bright side of life and who are good at cheering you up. Stay away from naysayers who tell you the things you want to do can't be done. Because the truth is, anything that you can think of can happen -- if you persevere. Pisces - February 19 - March 20 Your love-hate balancing act with an authority figure is most definitely tipping in the love direction right about now. Even with the current hectic pace of your life, you two can find the time you need to clearly communicate what you expect from each other. Rely on your solid communication skills to ease any potentially rough spots that may appear in the near future. You two are developing an excellent relationship.

GUYANA CHRONICLE Thursday July 10, 2014

Argentina beat Dutch in shootout to reach World Cup final By Peter Rutherford SAO PAULO, (Reuters) - Argentina’s Sergio Romero saved two penalties in a 4-2 shootout win over the Netherlands to seal their first World Cup final place in 24 years after the first ever goalless semi-final at the end of extra time yesterday Romero plunged low to his left to save the first penalty kick from defender Ron Vlaar and then made a superb stop from Wesley Sneijder as Argentina’s jubilant fans went wild at the Corinthians arena. The pressure of scoring the winning penalty kick fell to Argentina substitute Maxi Rodriguez who slotted high past Jasper Cillessen, with the Dutch keeper failing to emulate the heroics of backup Tim Krul in their quarter-final win over Costa Rica. Twice champions Argentina now travel to Rio de Janeiro for Sunday’s final against old rivals Germany, who thrashed hosts Brazil 7-1 in the other semi-final in Belo Horizonte on Tuesday.

GCB wins...

From back page “The two judges ruled that Madam Justice Sandra Kurtzious was wrong and did not properly assess the principles relevant to the granting of the injunction against the GCB and they also said that when an injunction is finished, the plaintiff needs to apply to the Full Court for the granting of the ex-parte injunction that was refused or apply interparte by summons for the injunction that was refused.

It will be a repeat of the 1986 and 1990 finals and the first time the same two teams will have faced each other three times in the title decider. “...I’m really happy with everything,” goalkeeping hero Romero said in a televised interview. (Penalties) are a question of luck, that’s the reality... I had confidence in myself and, fortunately, everything turned out well.” Argentina coach Alejandro Sabella added: “I’m very happy because we reached the final and now we will see what we can do. We will give everything as usual, with humility, work and 100 percent effort.” D i s a p p o i n t e d Netherlands winger Arjen Robben told Dutch TV: “It hurts but we gave it our all this evening and it’s grim going out in this way... I have to be proud of these guys...” CAUTIOUS START With Brazil’s harrowing defeat still fresh in the mind, caution was the watchword of a tactical first half as both sides felt each other out

and battled for possession across the pitch in a defencedominated encounter short on entertainment. Nigel de Jong, best known for his chest-high kick on Spain’s Xabi Alonso in the 2010 final which the Dutch lost, completed a remarkable recovery from a groin injury to play in midfield and clearly had orders to shadow Argentine playmaker Lionel Messi. Argentina had equalled their longest winning streak at a World Cup with their 1-0 victory over Belgium in the quarter-finals, but all five of those wins were by one-goal margins and they were even less creative without the injured Angel di Maria. Four-time World Player of the Year Messi, who was kept quiet by his standards, did test Cillessen with a free kick early on while Ezequiel Garay stooped to head a corner over the bar under pressure from Vlaar but chances were few in a dire first half. The second period was equally cautious as the Dutch failed to record a shot on target for the entire

90 minutes before Arjen Robben burst into the box in the dying moments, only to be denied by Javier Mascherano’s well-timed block. Argentina substitute Rodrigo Palacio missed a gilt-edged chance in the second period of extra time when he broke clear and his tame header was held comfortably by a relieved Cillessen before Turkish referee Cuneyt Cakir called for the shootout. Netherlands defender Vlaar said of his missed attempt: “In the penalty I wasn’t nervous I, concentrated. It had to go in and it didn’t. “We didn’t get that many chances (during the game). We could have created more chances, but we didn’t. We didn’t get the chance to score and that’s a shame. Argentina substitute Sergio Aguero, who converted his penalty in the shootout, said of their victory: “It means so many things, a lot of people didn’t think that Argentina would be in the final, but we know what a good team we have.”

The two judges also said that Haniff did not show in her application that she had resources or assets to make good any loss the GCB would have suffered due to the injunction being in place.” In an invited comment with Chronicle Sport yesterday afternoon, secretary of the GCB Anand Sanasie was exuberant at chalking up another Court victory on behalf of his fellow executives and himself and said the GCB was open to discussions and reconciliatory talks with the BCB to solve issues. “Yes, the injunction was discharged and damages granted to the GCB and we are happy because this is the third time the BCB has taken the GCB to Court and lost and I hope this finally stops and we can get on with the

business of administering cricket in Guyana. :That being said, I wish to state that the GCB is open to discussions and reconciliatory talks and suggestions with the BCB to solve issues and while we have chalked up another victory in the courtroom, we would rather have those victories on the field of play.” He added, “We are prepared to welcome the BCB on board with the GCB, as the GCB is made up of the three county boards in Demerara, Essequibo and Berbice and I am extending on behalf of the president and other executive members of the GCB, an invitation to the president and executives of the BCB to come on board with us and let’s put Guyana’s cricket first.”

Haniff’s action had also listed as its plaintiffs, BCB president Keith Foster, vicepresidents Anil Beharry, Hubern Evans and Julian Cambridge, Angela Haniff, Raymond Haniff, Romesh Munna and Shabeer Baksh, while the defendants were the entire executive body of the GCB including its longserving administrator Savitri Persaud. Just last week Thursday, Sanasie, Drubahadur and Marketing Manager of the GCB Raj Singh were at the Albion Community Centre ground, where 11 first division clubs in the Ancient County were the recipients of a practice net and $100 000 - an exercise that is to be repeated in Linden and Essequibo.

Centurion Vijay frustrates England in first Test (REUTERS) - Murali Vijay hit an unbeaten 122 as India made slow progress to reach 259 for four against a determined England seam attack on the first day of the opening Test at Trent Bridge yesterday. Vijay, 30, scored his fourth Test century and first outside India with an assured display as wickets fell around him - hitting 20 fours and one six off 294 balls. The opener was given sporadic support from his team mates who struggled to establish themselves at the crease, before he was joined by captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni (50 not out) after tea, the pair putting on an unbeaten 81 for the fifth wicket. England struggled with

the slow pitch in Nottingham but took wickets at the beginning of each session to ensure they kept India within touching distance in good batting conditions at the start of the five-Test series. Shikhar Dhawan, Cheteshwar Pujara, Virat Kohli and Ajinkya Rahane all fell early in a session, but Vijay’s patience and expansive repertoire of shots helped keep the score ticking over. “I’ve worked a lot with videos of James Anderson,” Vijay told Sky Sports. “The first 15 minutes are the toughest thing as an opener. I wanted to play straight and late. “It’s a good batting wicket. After lunch, there was a period when it was doing a bit, so that was a

good experience for me.”

Murali Vijay scores his first Test hundred outside of Asia at Trent Bridge, yesterday.

FLAT MORNING On a flat morning England’s pace attack struggled to impose themselves, with Anderson taking the solitary wicket of Dhawan (12) before lunch when an outside edge was well-taken by wicketkeeper Matt Prior. The hosts, looking for their first win in nine Tests and the first of coach Peter Moore’s second spell in charge, were a different side after lunch and took two wickets for one run in the first three overs. Anderson removed the impressive Pujara (38), who had shared a second-wicket stand of 73 with Vijay, when Ian Bell took a brilliant onehanded diving catch at silly

mid-on. Stuart Broad then had Kohli (1), widely considered India’s biggest threat with the bat, caught at second slip by Bell to reduce India to 107 for three. India rallied with a fourth-wicket stand of 71 before seam bowler Liam Plunkett took the wicket of Rahane, who had looked comfortable working his way to 32. England’s underpressure captain Alastair Cook, having overseen a 1-0 series loss to Sri Lanka last month and an embarrassing 5-0 Ashes defeat in Australia earlier in the year, caught Rahane when he mistimed a pull shot. Dhoni ensured there was no further damage however, playing some

extravagant shots to reach 50 off 64 balls to help lay a solid platform for his side.

Froome out, Nibali in command after Tour mayhem By Julien Pretot ARENBERG PORTE DU HAINAUT, France - (Reuters) - Chaos and carnage rained down on the Tour de France yesterday as defending champion Chris

Froome crashed out of the race on stage five and Italian Vincenzo Nibali seized control. On a miserable wet day in northern France, Froome did not even make it to the notorious cobbled sections

as his second fall of the day, following a painful spill on Tuesday, led to his quitting after less than a week of his attempted defence. The battered and bruised Briton, who fell some 70km from the finish of the 152.5-

km ride from Ypres in Belgium, hobbled around in clear pain before climbing into a Team Sky car. “Obviously it’s devastating for Chris and for the team. We knew it was going to be a tough race,” Team Sky manager Dave Brailsford told reporter. With crash after crash decimating the peloton, Italian Nibali powered away from Spain’s Alberto Contador on the slippery cobbled sections, taking over two minutes on the Spaniard who, before the race, was regarded as the main threat to Froome’s title defence. The Astana rider, who took third place on the stage won by Dutchman Lars Boom, now leads twice former champion Contador, who is 19th overall, by 2:37. Boom is the first Dutchman to win a Tour stage since Pieter Weening in 2005. “It was a really stressful day and a very hard race. I wasn’t thinking of the yellow jersey,” Nibali told reporters. “I was just focused on riding the best I could. I’m in good shape. I’ve prepared for this particular stage but the conditions today were very different from those I experienced when I came and rode on the cobbles.” Denmark’s Jakob Fuglsang guided team mate Nibali home, taking second place on the stage and is second on the overall standings, two seconds behind the Italian. RAIN PELTED Froome had already hurt

his wrist in another tumble on Tuesday and he looked edgy as the rain pelted down. He was helped back into the peloton early in the stage after one crash which left him with some grazes but when he hit the tarmac again later it was more than his body could take. After talking to his support crew and shaking his head, he limped to the team vehicle and climbed in. “We really believed in Chris and his ability to win this race. But it’s not to be this year,” Brailsford said. “It was exciting, wasn’t it? You’ve got to say that when you see the way Nibali rode, it was very impressive. “It’s just unbelievable to ride away from (Fabian) Cancellara and (Peter) Sagan on the cobbles. We’ll remember it for a long time.” Froome is the second highprofile casualty of the Tour so far after fellow Briton Mark Cavendish abandoned after a horror crash in Saturday’s opening stage bunch sprint in Harrogate. As Froome departed, Nibali powered ahead. With mud splattering his face, the Italian looked light on the cobbled sectors whereas Contador struggled but at least stayed on his bike to limit the damage. MUD DRIPPING “It was a complicated day,” Contador told reporters seconds after crossing the finish line, mud dripping from his face. “I lost some time but the most important thing was to

avoid crashing. We will now recuperate and look forward.” Contador had some sympathy for Froome. “From here I want to give support to @chrisfroome, months of work and everything gone. A big loss for the Tour,” he wrote on his Twitter page. With Froome out the race will be harder to control as it heads towards the Vosges region, where Contador will fight tooth and nail to close the gap on Nibali. Cannondale rider Sagan is third in the overall standings, 44 seconds behind Nibali, after the Slovakian stayed out of trouble to maintain his solid start to the race. Among those who crashed on a hectic day were triple Paris-Roubaix champion Cancellara as well as overall contenders Tejay van Garderen (now 2:11 behind overall), Alejandro Valverde (2:11) and Jurgen van den Broeck (1:45). American Andrew Talansky and Frenchman Thibaut Pinot also managed to stay on their bike and trail Nibali by 2:05 and 2:25 respectively. Team Sky will now back Australian Richie Porte, who lies 1:54 off the pace in eighth place overall. “It’s all for Richie now, surely,” said sports director Nicolas Portal. Today’s sixth stage will take the battered peloton over 194-km from Arras to Reims as the Tour commemorates the centenary of the start of World War One.

Brazil debacle the culmination of long decline By Brian Homewood (REUTERS) Germany’s astonishing demolition of Brazil was the brutal culmination of a long, slow decline for the five-time world champions whose production line of world-class players seems to have ground to a halt. Brazil have not had a player in the top three of the world player-of-theyear award since Kaka won the prize in 2007 and their highest-placed player for 2013 was Neymar, who came fifth. Whereas their 2002 World Cup-winning team included a plethora of worldclass performers, including Rivaldo, Ronaldinho and Ronaldo, the current side is hugely dependent on Neymar who has only one year’s experience of the demands of European club football. After reaching three successive World Cup finals between 1994 and 2002, Brazil fell at the quarter-

final stage in 2006 and 2010 before crashing to their unprecedented 7-1 defeat by Germany in Tuesday’s semifinal. Although that was Brazil’s first defeat in 64 competitive home games, there have been plenty of stuttering performances on their own soil in recent years, including goalless draws against Bolivia and Venezuela. Brazil’s last Copa America outing three years ago ended in a quarterfinal defeat by Paraguay on penalties But Brazilian football’s problems go deeper than results. Many feel that Brazil is now paying a heavy price for switching its emphasis from a game based on skill and technique to one based more on brute force and speed back in the 1980s and 1990s. Zico, regarded as one of best players the country has ever produced, once said that he would not have made the grade nowadays.

National U-15 and U-19 encampment to commence GUYANA’S Under-15 and Under-19 cricket teams, who were selected for Regional engagements this year, will commence an encampment period at the Guyana Cricket Board hostel in LBI prior to the Regional Tournaments which will begin on July 20 and 22 respectively. Both squads will be encamped simultaneously, with the Under-15 camp starting today and ending next Tuesday, while the Under-19 will start tomorrow and run until next Thursday, with players in the Under-15 squad asked to assemble at the hostel at 10:00hrs today, while the Under-19 players will report at 17:00hrs tomorrow. The Under-15 squad: Bhaskar Yadram (captain), Joshua Persaud (vice captain/wkp.), Kevin Sinclair, Christopher Campbell, Alphius Bookie, Kurt Lovell, Steve Deonarine, Ashmead Nedd, Sagar Hetheramani, Orlando

Jailall, Stephen Kamaldeen, Colin Barlow, Bhojnarine Singh and Kris Ramnarine. The standby players are Junior Philips, Mark Ramsammy, Robin Williams and Khemchand Hardyal, with Andy Ramnarine performing duties of manager and Julian Moore the coach. The Under-19 squad reads: Tagenarine Chanderpaul, Shimron Hetmyer, Kemol Savory, Sharaz Ramcharran, Brian Sattaur, Kemo Paul, Keon Morris, Balchand Baldeo, Daniel Basdeo, Steven Sankar, Akel Mortimer Wallace, Nial Smith, Damion Waldron and Ashkay Homraj. Four standby players have been named for this category and they are David Latchaya, Avinash Persaud, Ronaldo Ali Mohamed and Shivindra Hemraj, while former senior team manager David Black will execute that role for the Under-19, having as the coach Adrian Amsterdam.

Brazil legend Romario “I’m sure that I went for a trial at a football club today, I would be rejected for being thin and small,” he said during the Soccerex conference two years ago. “You don’t see Romariotype forwards in the youth divisions, (the centre forward) is always a big guy,” he said referring to the stocky striker who led their 1994 World Cup attack. “That’s where the deterioration of Brazilian football begins.”

Even when players are unearthed, their careers often go off the rails and the likes of Robinho and Alexandro Pato have failed to fulfil their early promise following unhappy experiences at clubs in Europe. Brazil coach Luiz Felipe Scolari said many players disappeared off the radar after moving abroad at a young age. “Brazil does produce good players but we have to understand that many of them start here and go abroad very early and it’s only through research and observation that we discover that there are good Brazilians out there,” he said yesterday. TACTICAL FOULS Scolari himself has often been criticised for employing tactical fouls, although he has pointed out that other Brazilian coaches do it as well. Fernando Calazans, a veteran columnist in the daily newspaper O Globo, railed against the current

generation of coaches in his column yesterday. “It’s easy to blame the directors and it’s politically correct to spare the coaches, the so-called professors, who, with very rare exceptions, are just as out-of-touch, just as poorly informed, just as poorly prepared and just as disinterested in the quality of Brazilian football as the directors,” he wrote. “They are so many years and years behind that they set up defensive schemes, hold on for 1-0 wins, send long balls upfield, practise tactical fouling and make their players commit fouls, kick, pull, push, that sort of thing.” The turnaround in Brazilian football began after the 1982 World Cup loss to Italy, when one of the most exuberant teams the competition has ever seen came home empty-handed. “If we had won that game, football would have been different,” said Zico. “Instead, we started to create football based on getting

Four new players called up for CPL

Krik Edwards KINGSTON, Jamaica (CMC) - Four new players have been included on franchises preparing to battle one another in the highenergy Caribbean Premier League (CPL) set to begin in Grenada tomorrow. England international Owais Shah will link up with defending champions, Jamaica Tallawahs, while Ben Dunk, Player-of-theTournament in this year’s Big Bash League; will bring his big hitting to the Antigua Hawksbills. West Indies batsman Kirk Edwards, who played in all three Tests in the recent series against New Zealand, will join the Barbados Tridents, while batsman Shacaya Thomas, will join Dunk at the Hawksbills. The four players are replacing newcomers Thisara Perera of the Antigua Hawksbills who has been selected for the Sri Lanka ‘A’ tour;

Kieran Powell also of Hawksbills, who is unavailable for personal reasons; Ahmed Shehzad of Jamaica Tallawahs is unavailable due to his commitment with the Pakistan training camp and Imran Nazir of the Barbados Tridents is injured. St Lucia Zouks are also in the market for a replacement international player, after experienced Australian batsman Brad Hodge unfortunately suffered a broken arm in a warmup game. “It goes to show the strength of the Caribbean Premier League that we are able to draft in such talented and popular replacements for those who are now unavailable,” declared CPL Cricket Operations Director, Michael Hall. “It is a tournament that is on the lips of every cricketer in the world at the moment, and although international commitments and injuries have taken their toll, we are always confident of having plenty of talented cricketers ready and willing to step in.” The Limacol Caribbean Premier League returns on July 11, as the Guyana Amazon Warriors take on the Antigua Hawksbills at the National Cricket Stadium, Grenada, in the opening game of the tournament.

the result at whatever cost, football based on breaking up the opposition’s move, of fouling. “That defeat for Brazil was not beneficial for world football.” There was a brief attempt to change the national team’s style under Mano Menezes following the 2010 World Cup to a Spanish-style possession-based game. But he was fired after two years and replaced by Scolari, who immediately reverted to his favourite formation, with two defensive midfielders and a target man up front. The big hope is that Tuesday’s debacle could have as profound an effect on Brazilian football as the 1982 defeat by Italy. “Who knows, it could lead to great and real changes, on and off the pitch, starting at grassroots level,” said Tostao, a forward in the 1970 World Cup-winning team. “There needs to be a change of concepts.”

Media reports that Powell and Simpson are cleared not true“Any reports of the athhandlers letes’ previous sanction

Asafa Powell KINGSTON, Jamaica, (CMC)- The handlers of Jamaican sprinter Asafa Powell on Wednesday dismissed local media reports that Powell and training partner Sherone Simpson were cleared of doping offences by the Court of Arbitration for Sports (CAS). Local television station CVM, reported on Tuesday that Powell and Simpson had been cleared of doping offenses. However Powell’s publicist Tara Playfair-Scott has denied the report.

The appeal was filed was against the 18th month sanction issued by JADCO earlier this year on April 10, 2014. Both athletes are more than satisfied with the process and patiently await the CAS panel’s decision”. Under the stay issued by CAS last month both athletes are allowed to compete professionally until the final decision is handed down. Simpson will compete in both the 100m and the 200m on Saturday at the Gulden Sporen meet in Kortrijk, Belgium.

P&P celebrates 10 years of junior tennis camps CHIEF Executive Officer (CEO) of P&P Insurance Brokers, Bishwa Panday, yesterday expressed his elation to host the Guyana Lawn Tennis Association (GLTA) president Grace McCalman and Junior Development Chairman Surendra Khayyam to reinforce for the 10th time his sponsorship commitment for the annual GLTA Tennis Camp. In 2004 under its Interim Committee of McCalman, Colin Sawh and Rawle Sue-Ho, the defunct tennis association was successfully reestablished during an AGM with four years of audited financial statements and eight financial clubs. But it was the P&P tennis camp which formed the foundation for the successful re-establishment of the junior programme at the Park Players Club under the guidance of former national coach Debbie Bunbury and current national coach Shelly Daly-Ramdyhan. The majority of the members of the national squad also emerged from the camp and subsequent follow-up training programmes at the club. Panday, who is no stranger to the sports fraternity, recounted his unwavering support of various sports for decades, to provide safe and healthy recreational opportunities for children and to foster discipline, wishing at the same time

P&P Account Executive Devi Balkarran presents cheque to GLTA president Grace McCalman while P&P Insurance CEO Bish Panday and GLTA Junior Chairman Surendra Khayyam look on. to see greater responsibility and commitment from adults to save our children from developing harmful habits. In this regard, Khayyam who was also at the meeting expressed his intention to take up the mantle of junior development so that Guyana can truly benefit from the sport but admits that it would be a tall order without comprehensive support and a strong and committed executive. The camp which is geared for children aged 6-18 years is the feature junior clinic of the year which attracts young children at all levels to enjoy fun practice drills and competitions in order

to gain appreciation for the sport of tennis. Parents would then seek to sign up their young ones with clubs with junior programmes for continuation based on their interest. The camp generally attracts at least 50-80 children which has led to a significant increase in requests for coaches for private schools and clubs and this now imposes on the GLTA and the Tennis Coaches Association new constraints for a speedy increase in coaching capacity. This year’s camp will be conducted during weekdays for a two-week period, from July 14 to 28 and children

between the ages of 6 and 11years will be tutored in the sport from 08:00hrs to 10:00hrs at the National Gymnasium on Mandela Avenue. Children 12-18 years will go through their paces from 11:00hrs to 13:00hrs at the National Racquet Centre on Woolford Avenue and Camp Streets. Fee per child is $1 500 for the two-week period, with registration to be done by calling 6241739. All parents are asked to be present to complete registration with fees at 7:45hrs on Monday July 14 at the National Gymnasium to prepare for the opening ceremony.

4TH DIGICEL INTER-SECONDARY SCHOOL FOOTBALL C’SHIPS

Wins for IBE and Annandale Secondary as G’town fixtures rained out YESTERDAY afternoon amid heavy overcast conditions, both the Institute of Business Education (IBE) and Annandale Secondary School chalked up victories in their respective match of this year’s fourth annual Digicel InterSecondary School Football Championships. While rain, which drenched

Georgetown and parts of its environs, prevented any play in the matches that were scheduled for the capital city, IBE met Buxton Secondary in the first of two matches at the Beterverwagting Community Centre ground. Indebted to a double strike from Jason Cromwell who found the back of the net in the 26th and 66th minutes of play, complemented by

Deshawn Trotz’ solitary strike in the 39th minute, IBE waltzed away with a 3-0 win over Buxton. In the second match of the day at the same venue, Annandale, through an Ian Docker goal in the 32nd minute, held a 1-0 advantage over Bygeval Secondary until the final minute of play, the 70th, in which Shafeer Sanichar found the back of

the net for Bygeval forcing the game to be decided via penalty kicks. Docker, Jeremiah Thorne, Kristoff Stoll and Keon Gooding buried their spot kick for Annandale, while watching their teammate Sven Anthony missed his own. Sanichar proved that his last-minute goal was no fluke when he scored his spot kick, along with Raphael Bovell and Orette Forde. Kelvin James and Stephen Petrie missed theirs. (Calvin Roberts)

Guyana suffer heavy losses to Jamaica and T&T at CBC Women’s tournament … coach still optimistic of a victory

By Rawle Toney GUYANA women’s national team are having a horrid time at the Caribbean Basketball Confederation (CBC) Championship in Tortola, losing their first two games by a total of 123 points. Lack-lustre doesn’t fully describe the Guyanese women’s performance as they lost their first game to 2006 and champions Jamaica 26-86 then were hammered by 2011 runnersup Trinidad and Tobago 3396 yesterday. Against the women from the Twin Island Republic, Guyana looked okay in the opening minutes until the Trinidadians began to force the ball after realising that the Guyanese were lacking, technically and tactically. Point guard Rhonda John controlled the pace of the game at both ends of the floor, making her presence felt strongly on defence. John was a nightmare in the backcourt for the Guyanese,

UG, NATI, Plaisance and KwaKwani through to YBG semi-finals UNIVERSITY of Guyana, New Amsterdam Technical Institute (NATI), Plaisance Academy and Kwakwani Secondary have gone through to the semifinals of this year’s Youth Basketball Guyana (YBG)organised National Schools Basketball Festival. Behind Jonathan Pooran’s game-high 22 points, and 18 points from his sidekick Daniel Ramlagan, the University of Guyana clinched a nail-biting victory over the Linden Technical Institute (LTI) 54-52. It was a gruelling match between the two tertiary institutions that was close from jump ball. Terron Welch (24 points, nine rebounds) and Dennis Niles (22 points, seven rebounds) did all they could

to help their school win but UG, with Ramlagan and Pooran, were too much to handle. The pair of Leonard Primo and Stanton Rose continued to do damage in the tournament for Kwakwani who defeated President’s College 61-40 in a heavy one-sided affair. Primo scored 12 points and grabbed seven rebounds while Rose netted 15 points, along with getting five rebounds and four assists. Shaquille Adonis was President’s College’ only player to show some fighting spirit and he ended the clash with 17 points and four rebounds. Despite another good showing from Daniel Anthony (19 points), Mackenzie High School

(MHS) were soundly beaten by NATI 27-47, being led by Edmar Semple (15 points) and Shemroy McKenzie 11 points). Defending champions Marian Academy were forced to surrender their trophy after being booted from the tournament following their 35-27 points defeat by Plaisance Academy. In the two Under-16 games played, St Rose’s High thrashed President’s College 53-30 and Bishops’ High School bullied Plaisance Academy 49-41. In the Under-14 clash, St Rose’s secured a win by default since Bishops’ High did not show up and Marian Academy got past St Stanislaus College 2210.

since they (Guyana) could not have gotten the ball up the court. Most of the times the ball was stolen. Guyana captain and Guyana Police Force rank Natasha Alder seemed to be the only one who turned up to play for her country and finished the game with 14 points, seven rebounds two steals and three blocked shots. However, the forward also had seven of Guyana’s 22 turnovers. After helping Guyana claim victory at the last InterGuiana Games, 19-yearold centre Ginelle Ifill (six points) had a harsh welcome to international basketball at the senior level. The lanky Guyanese was no match for her Trinidadian equal Samantha Wallace (9 points, 7 rebounds) who was also playing at the CBC for the first time. At halftime, the Trinidadians led 35-19 but then for the entire second half Guyana could scored only 14 points while giving up 61 points. Guyana’s Ann Gordon still believes that her girls can

win the CBC tournament, stating that they are “not afraid” of the competition. Gordon said that the spirit of the players remains very high and the Guyanese are “hyped up to win this tournament and despite what, even though we have some stumbling blocks in our way, we are not concerned about that. We know that by God’s grace we will make it.” The coach, who was also a former national point guard noted, “With the kind of chemistry that we have I think that we can do it. United we stand, and united we are going forward and we will lift, by God’s grace, our country’s flag high and make them proud.” Guyana will play St Vincent and Grenadines today from 14:00hrs and based on the fact that they have given up an overwhelming 182 points in just two matches played, one can only pray for a miracle to turn their fortunes around at the tournament.

Dilshan steers Sri Lanka to victory over South Africa … another century for Hashim Amla KANDY, Sri Lanka (Reuters) - Tillakaratne Dilshan outshone Hashim Amla’s 14th one-day international century to steer Sri Lanka to a series-levelling 87-run win over South Africa in the second match at Pallekele Stadium yesterday. Dilshan followed his 90ball knock of 86 to take three crucial South African wickets for 40 runs and claim the man-of-the-match award. Sri Lanka, choosing to bat first, were dismissed for 267 in the 50th over with Ryan McLaren causing a late collapse, taking four for 48 as the last six wickets fell for 42 runs.

Tilakarante Dilshan

South Africa were going strongly at 101-2 before Dilshan induced AB de Villiers to miscue a shot. They then collapsed to 180 all out off 38.1 overs on a slow pitch. Amla was the only batsman untroubled by the Sri Lankan bowlers, scoring his second successive hundred of the series - 101 off 102 balls. Lasith Malinga was Sri Lanka’s best bowler with four for 24. South Africa won the first ODI played in Colombo on Sunday by 75 runs. The third and final ODI takes place at Hambantota on Saturday.

GCB wins another court battle over BCB â&#x20AC;Ś Sanasie extends olive branch to BCB By Calvin Roberts WHEN the governing body for cricket in the Caribbean, the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) was holding its Annual General Meeting (AGM) and elections of office-bearers in March 2013, secretary of the Berbice Cricket Board (BCB) Angela Haniff filed an injunction in the High Court. Angela Haniff

According to Haniff, the executive body of the Guyana Cricket Board (GCB) was illegal as its (GCB) AGM and Elections of Office-Bearers, held in January 2013, was not constitutional, hence the two appointed directors to the WICB should not be allowed to vote. Yesterday, after one year and four months of several trips to Court, the Drubahadur-steward

GCB won the battle with Madam Justice Roxane George and Justice James Bovell-Drakes ruling in their favour. According to reports reaching Chronicle Sport from a legal mind, Madam Justice George and Justice Bovell-Drakes made several rulings in favour of the GCB yesterday morning, before declaring that the injunction filed by Haniff was wrong.
