Regional security, climate change take centre stage at CARICOM Heads meeting in St Vincent

CARIBBEAN Community (CARICOM) Heads of Government, including President Donald Ramotar, yesterday opened their Inter-Sessional Meeting at the Buccament Bay Resort in Kingstown, the capital of St Vincent and the Grenadines , with regional security and climate change headlining the agenda. During the opening ceremony, incoming CARICOM Chairman and Prime Minister of St Vincent and the Grenadines, Dr. Ralph Gonsalves, re-emphasised the need for the 15-member regional grouping to gain momentum in its work. He recognised the continuous criticism of the Community’s slow pace or sometimes failure to implement decisions of its agencies, but lamented the fact that the grouping is not a single state, but rather a society of sovereign states, and as such there is need for unity to ensure the work of the body moves forward. “The success of the CARICOM enterprise truly begins with the political leadership, though it does not end with us alone, it’s us, our national populations and our national institutions,” Dr Gonsalves said. He expressed optimism that the meeting will address the key agenda items and end with some level of results, with the aim of improving the lives of the peoples of the Caribbean. “ This inter-sessional Conference of Heads of State and Government has nominally a long agenda, essentially though, the subjects to be discussed have one focus, that is to improve the lives and quality of living of the people of CARICOM,” he noted. The St Vincent PM also expressed gratitude to CARICOM Heads for their support to his country, during the December 2013 torrential rains which claimed the lives of 11 persons and damaged major infrastructure in the country. President Ramotar is expected to make a presentation to his colleague heads on climate change and the need for the Region to take urgent action. The Guyanese delegation at the two-day meeting includes Foreign Affairs Minister Carolyn Rodrigues-Birkett, Attorney General Anil Nandlall, Head of the Climate Change Unit at the Office of the President Shyam Nokta and Director General in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Ambassador Elisabeth Harper.

Called ‘Bal Nivas’…

Dharmic Sabha erecting humanitarian shelter at Port Mourant

THE Guyana Hindu Dharmic Sabha, in a humanitarian effort, has undertaken to erect a shelter called ‘Bal Nivas’, at Ankerville, Port Mourant, Corentyne, Berbice. The initiative saw the commencement of construction work in early April of last year by Kascon Engineering Service. The hospice, which will house 60 persons at a time, will target children, particularly those with single parents in the surrounding communities. Religion or ethnicity will not be a deciding factor in selecting beneficiaries, President of the Sabha, Dr. Vindhya Persaud said. She said, through concerts that were previously organised by the Sabha, they were able to raise funds which have been the main source of income. The private sector played a part indirectly, by supporting the

Remembering Cheddi I wish to appeal to all to desist from exploiting race and ethnicity, and fears of racial/ethnic insecurity. Above all, Guyana today needs racial/ethnic healing and harmony. When my wife and I and other started the independence struggle in the mid-1940s, we stood firmly on the side of the working people – all the people, regardless of race. Our anti-colonial struggle was not based on race/ethnicity, as in some countries, but on socioeconomic issues.

concerts and the government has contributed significantly by granting the land title. Persaud said the New York Chapter, too, donated $1M towards the project. The administration of the shelter will be handled by the Sabha in collaboration with the Ministry of Human Services and the Child Protection Agency. Counseling and rehabilitation programmes that will be instituted would seek to educate the shelter population while eliminating domestic issues within the surrounding communities.

ABUSIVE RELATIONSHIPS The facility will also be used as an instrument of refuge for battered women who have been in abusive relationships and need emotional and physical help. With the building being 90 percent completed, Persaud, a People’s Progressive Party (PPP) Member of Parliament (MP), admitted that the challenge faced is funding for completing it. “The walkway and fence are still to be built and, as such, we are seeking assistance through concerts and fund- raising drives to,

successfully, complete this project,” she said. Persaud emphasised the importance of the concerts, pointing out that they contributed 85 percent of the needed funding. President of the Guyana When the project is finished, the Sabha will continue efforts to raise Hindu Dharmic Sabha, Dr. Vindhya Persaud funds through the private sector and donations, as Bal Nivas becomes operational. The money will then be channelled towards its maintenance and the development of the communities. As such, she urged the public to visit Bal Nivas and see what they have been supporting and continue supporting similar initiatives as they are for a great cause. Persaud also expressed sincere gratitude for the public contribution, acknowledging that the achievement could not have been possible without it. The erection is projected to be finished by mid-year and the shelter should become operational by year end.

Pass AML/CFT Bill or call elections

… Region 2 residents declare at Anna Regina meeting

REGION 2 residents are insisting that fresh general elections be held if the embattled Anti-Money Laundering and Countering the Financing of Terrorism (AML/CFT) (Amendment) Bill is not passed in the National Assembly as soon as possible. They have taken this position after hearing, over the past several months, the parliamentary opposition parties’ various demands in exchange for their support for passage of this vital piece of legislation. Speaking at a meeting at the Anna Regina Town Council, one resident recommended a countrywide picketing exercise to register the nation’s disapproval of the way the matter is being politicised by the political grouping A Partnership For National Unity (APNU) and by the Alliance For Change (AFC). Another resident testified to the difficulties he personally experienced in receiving remittances, and also expressed concern that the non-passage of the bill might affect parents’ ability to send financial support in a timely and cost-effective manner to their children who are studying abroad. A pastor who spoke on behalf of the religious community said that, with Guyana being named a non-compliant jurisdiction, serious repercussions could be visited on the various churches that are recipient of financial aid from similar international organisations. Finance Minister Dr. Ashni Singh urged residents and regional officials of the various political parties to speak to their leaders, since their views can, and should, be able to influence or inform the decisions taken by those leaders. Minister Singh said certain issues must be placed above partisan politics, and the AML/CFT Bill is one such issue. He alluded to the united position taken by the Parliament of Belize, the only other regional country besides Guyana that had been blacklisted by the Caribbean Financial Action Task Force (CFATF) in November last year, and explained that the Belizean Parliament passed the required

legislation, effectively reconciling differences that had led to the country being blacklisted by CFATF through a conscious decision to work together in the interest of the nation. “We have an Opposition that is saying that ‘we will not vote for this legislation unless you give us what we want in exchange’…it is almost like saying ‘I’m holding a gun to your head, and if you do not give me what I am insisting that you give me, I will pull the trigger’. That is essentially what is going on here,” Minister Singh declared. He also explained in great detail the dire consequences that can follow if the AML/CFT Bill is not passed in a timely manner. The consequences of being blacklisted will not only affect every sector in the country, but will impact the lives of all Guyanese, he said. Minister Singh noted that insurance for cars and the cost for food, transportation and other basic needs will be impacted if Guyana were blacklisted by FATF in May, when that body is scheduled to meet. Moreover, further sanctions would discourage foreign investors from coming into the country, Minister Singh explained, and this would negatively impact jobs international investors would have created via construction, production and manufacturing. APNU Councillor Abdul Latiff, who attended the meeting, agreed that the AML/CFT Bill is a serious matter, and called for the political parties to work together to find a solution to the impasse. Minister within the Ministry of Finance, Juan Eghill, explained that the opposition keeps shifting the goalpost to the point where it is now impossible to negotiate with them. Similar sentiments were echoed by Minister Singh, who chronicled the Opposition parties’ pattern of reneging from agreed positions. The Opposition parties’ proposed amendment that empowers police, customs and FIU officials to seize currency was roundly criticised. Residents made it clear that this is not a legal provision

Ahead of tomorrow meeting…

GAPA joins call for passage of AML/CFT legislation By Vanessa Narine THE Guyana Agricultural Producers' Association (GAPA) will meet tomorrow to address the increasing challenges in accessing international financing due to the non-passage of the Anti-Money Laundering and Countering the Financing of Terrorism (AML/CFT) (Amendment) Bill. GAPA President Nigel Dharamlall, who made the announcement, said the delay in enacting the legislation has caused networking through international banks to become more onerous, among other difficulties. He said: “We have members that benefit both directly and indirectly from other countries, international funding agencies and international non-governmental organisations (NGOs). “What we have seen is that it is now more difficult to network with these partners through international banks because of Guyana’s failure in being compliant. “Not only are our business relations with these organisations affected but we have seen the increase in operational costs because of the impact the Bill

has on the exchange rates,” Dharamlall lamented. He explained that the bill’s passage is quintessential to restoring this critical pillar of support for the thousands of farmers that GAPA represents. FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE “We work closely with the Ministry of Agriculture and Government but much of our support is foreign to improve our advocacy on behalf of farmers and the financial assistance we can facilitate,” Dharamlall disclosed.

H e s a i d , c u r r e n t l y, multi-million dollar funding schemes through both Norway and the Government of Japan are stalled as the disbursement agents will only function in an environment that is regionally and internationally compliant. “The effects of not passing this bill are already being felt,” Dharamlall said, adding: “It is our farmers, the people at the grassroots level who are feeling the squeeze.” He reiterated sentiments expressed by GAPA when it called for the passage of the

bill at the last sitting of Parliament and said: “The agriculture sector is one of Guyana’s main economic pillars and the average hardworking Guyanese man and woman are the ones at the frontline, who will face the repercussions of non-compliance to international standards.” T h e G A PA P re s i d e n t maintained that reasonable compromise must be the order of the day, to avoid the average Guyanese man and woman, who are working hard to improve their lives, facing unnecessary difficulties.

they can support, since many of them have very little confidence in law enforcement officers. Region 2 Vice Chairman Vishnu Samaroo said the upsurge in economic activities in an economy that is primarily cash-based makes $10M a small sum, especially for large businesses. He, too, called the opposition conditionalities unreasonable. PPP MP Manzoor Nadir, who was also present at the meeting, reminded of the sanction that has already been imposed by CFATF, even as he refuted opposition-levied allegations that the Government had been “sitting on the bill” since 2011. He explained that CFATF came to review Guyana for the first time in 2010, and subsequently, in early 2011, they issued a first report in which they engaged the Government in talks on measures that ought to be taken. They then issued a final report with the prescriptions which Guyana had to follow in order to become compliant. That report was issued in November 2011, at which time the Parliament had been dissolved and the country was in full elections mode. “Because of that one-seat majority, they intend to play pure politics and rule over ruin, if they have to, because ruling is more important than the welfare of every man, woman and child,” Nadir said. He informed the gathering of the experience of The Bahamas, which had been blacklisted in 2000. When the FATF placed the Bahamas on the list of non-compliant jurisdictions, it had to spend a total of US$35M from its treasury to come into compliance, he said. Former Regional Chairman and Minister within the Ministry of Agriculture, Alli Baksh, emphasised the need for citizens to understand the gravity of the issue at hand, and the possible consequences that blacklisting could exact on the country’s future. The AML/CFT Bill is currently before a parliamentary select committee, where it has been for over a year. That committee was scheduled to meet again on March 10.

Canje fisherman fined $10,000 for ganja he uses for chest cold By Jeune Vankeric

FISHERMAN Mark Ramotar was fined $10,000 after he confessed to being in possession of marijuana, which he said he uses for his chest cold. The 25-year old defendant of Betsy Ground, East Canje, appeared at the New Amsterdam Court before Magistrate Sherdel Isaacs Marcus and pleaded guilty to the charge of possession of narcotics. Police Sergeant Godfrey Playter, prosecuting, said that on March 2 at about 17:20hrs police on mobile patrol were in Adelphi Village when they saw the defendant on a bicycle acting in a suspicious manner. He was stopped and a search carried out on his person revealed leaves, seeds and stems which were purportedly from the cannabis sativa plant. The illegal substance was weighed and it amounted to one gram. When the defendant was asked by the court why he had the drug, his reply was, “I does use it for my ongoing chest cold. I usually do fishing at night.” Meanwhile, in addition to the fine, the defendant has to undergo two weeks of community service at the New Amsterdam Magistrate’s Court.

FIRST Lady Mrs. Deolatchmee Ramotar and members of the First Lady’s Foundation visited with and delivered goodies to close to 100 senior citizens in Region 3 (West Demerara-Essequibo Islands) who would have made significant contributions to Guyana’s development over the years. The gesture was in keeping with observances to mark International Women’s Day, celebrated the world over last Saturday. The presentations were done at Patentia Secondary School, on the West Bank Demerara, and at Zeelugt Primary, on the West Coast Demerara. Visits were made to the homes of five senior citizens who were unable to travel to the venues at reference. International Women’s Day, which was launched in 1911, is celebrated each year on March 8. It is a day when

First Lady Deolatchmee Ramotar with two senior citizens at the Zeelugt Primary School organisations, religious communities, and governments, in their quest for peace, democracy and equality, mark the economic, political and social achievements of women. In brief remarks, First Lady Ramotar said the government will continue to honour women who would have contributed to the country’s economy, and that each year, the Foundation

has been moving to different locations to ensure that every community benefits from their distribution programme. She noted that International Women’s Day is a day set aside to acknowledge the many contributions women would have made to society and should never be forgetten. “They have contributed in many ways to the development

of Guyana, whether it is helping their families or their communities, and so we think they deserve the acknowledgement,” the First Lady said. Here in Guyana as well as the Caribbean, the rationale behind the observance of International Women’s Day differs from that of sister countries in the Western World, in that the former developed an early tradition of struggle and activism, born out of their experience in shaking off the shackles of slavery and indentureship, followed by the exploitation of colonialism.

Caribbean awaits outcome of regional debate on decriminalization of marijuana KINGSTOWN, St Vincent (CMC) – RANDY Delplesche, 27, is unemployed. But over the past few weeks he has “earned” EC$60,000 (One EC dollar = US$0.37 cents) from the illegal marijuana trade. He is among those Caribbean nationals anxiously awaiting the outcome of the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) Inter-Sessional summit that begins today in St Vincent where the issue of decriminalizing marijuana for medicinal purposes would have been discussed. Delplesche does not hide the fact that he too favours regional governments agreeing to decriminalize the drug for medical purposes. “I think it is a good vibes,” he told the Caribbean Media Corporation (CMC), adding “no work is going on in the country, so we have to look to do something else. That is the only thing we can do and make a little money.” A report by a group of experts supports the argument by Delplesche that decriminalizing marijuana and exploring its use for medicinal purposes could help boost the sluggish economies of Caribbean countries. When they meet here over the next two days, the regional leaders will discuss the report that has already indicated that the Caribbean has a built-in competitive advantage with marijuana cultivation. "The region may wish therefore to explore any commercial benefit from a potential multi-billion industry including research and development and also the production of medical marijuana products," the report stated. CARICOM Chairman, Dr Ralph Gonsalves, the host prime minister for the inter-sessional summit, last year urged his regional colleagues to discuss the issue of decriminalizing marijuana, noting the steps taken in the United States in this regard.

Regional countries to benefit from new EU-funded project SAN JOSE, Costa Rica (CMC) – THE Inter-American Institute for Cooperation on Agriculture (IICA) says it is working with two other international organisations on a project that will allow Caribbean countries to acquire new expertise and improve the design of policies related to food and nutritional security. IICA said that European Union-funded project, is being undertaken in collaboration with the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) and the Association of Universities of Latin America and the Caribbean (UDUAL), and should begin on January 2015. It said the FAO and UDUAL signed a memorandum of understanding in Rome late last month, under which they will work with IICA and European universities, in developing the suite of e-learning courses as part of the online master’s programme in food security. “The aim is to offer degrees that will further develop the capacities of food security professionals who work in government ministries and institutions in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC), such as nutritionists, statisticians, market analysts, and others. “Furthermore, the initiative will draw on a large number of specialised courses, which have already been designed, on agricultural and rural development,” IICA said, adding that the e-learning tools will also be available to farmers, traders and agricultural workers interested in the subjects covered. IICA Deputy Director General, Lloyd Day, said that “the development of innovative education mechanisms by IICA, FAO and the universities will make it possible to respond more efficiently to

Land Minister: Police unit to crack down on squatters

(TRINIDAD GUARDIAN) LAND and Marine Resources Minister Jairam Seemungal says he ask Cabinet to establish a police unit to stop illegal occupation of state lands by squatter. He said in the past two weeks his ministry had to intervene in 75 areas to deal with squatters encroaching on state lands. The minister said squatting is still a challenge for his ministry, which also has to manage some 60,000 regularised squatters. “We are now putting a lot of polices and procedures in place to deal with (squatting). Manpower has always been an issue in the ministry and now we increasing for the very first time the manpower in the ministry to deal with it,” he said in an interview at Paria Suites, La Romain yesterday following a function to distribute 76 lots to squatters affected by construction of the San Fernando to Point Fortin Highway. Seemungal urged the squatters, who were given certificates of land tenure for lots at Picton Phase 2 Settlement, not to sell their lots or let anyone fool them into giving away their land. “Use the land wisely,” he said. The minister later said: “A lot of people over the last eight to ten years felt that they could go on state lands and just encroach and occupy and no one is looking at it,” he said. “I will be taking a note to Cabinet to seek some form of police squad that will work along with the ministry (that) will be dealing… with the people who feel that all these lands are there for grabs.” Seemungal said Cabinet had approved relocation of 162 squatters affected by the highway construction.

STATUS CHANGE FOR SQUATTERS Works and Infrastructure Minister Dr Surajrattan Rambachan told the squatters they have been given a great opportunity to improve their status which has been uplifted from squatter to land owner. He said the land they have been given is valued at $200,000 and will appreciate to $500,000 and more in years to come. “You have been given a land payment of $50,000 over the next 30 years,” he said. Rambachan said each squatter will pay $1750 annually for the next 30 years and the lease will be renewed at the end of that period. The squatters have the option of approaching the T&T Mortgage Finance for funding to construct their homes and will be eligible for a two percent interest rate. Among the beneficiaries yesterday was Bridmohan Roopnarine Singh, 69, and his wife Samdaye Mohanie Bridgemohan, 70, of Super Extension, Saltmine Trace, Fyzabad, expressed joy at receiving their lot of land. Singh said when they were told they would have to move to make way for the highway they were worried. “We are grateful that we have somewhere to live. We are happy the Prime Minister kept her promise. She said she not going to put nobody on the road and she kept her word,” Singh said, with tears in his eyes. However Jassodra Singh, 57, of St Mary’s Village Oropouche, said she was not pleased that she has to move since she has been living in that area for the last 20 years. “It is uncomfortable and heartbreaking. At this age it is very hard to move but we have accept it for the highway,” she said.

the needs of rural development and food security in the Region.” He added that IICA and FAO have had a long history of partnering on food security in Latin America and the Caribbean, and the development of the online master’s degree course would build on their joint work. “This is a very cost effective and meaningful way to contribute to the fight against hunger in the Region,” said Marcela Villarreal, Director of FAO’s Office for Partnerships, Advocacy and Capacity Development. FAO Assistant Director-General Maria Helena Semedo said “this new partnership will allow us to reach more people, helping them to design effective nutrition and food security policies and programmes, and ultimately, helping them to improve quality of life. “Scaling up food and nutrition policies is crucial to eradicate hunger by 2025,” she added, while Roberto Escalante, Secretary-General of UDUAL, which represents a network of 220 universities in LAC, said the agreement was about how knowledge and policy can join together to provide solutions to food insecurity.

EDITORIAL

GUYANA

John Bosco: God’s Angel of Mercy THE Roman Catholic Church has indisputably been embroiled in some serious scandals during the centuries of its existence; but while these should be ventilated and addressed, these anomalies should not shape the identity of the whole, and equally indisputable are the uncountable priceless and great works done to serve humanity by that body’s monks, priests and nuns worldwide, most notably latterly being the saintly Mother Teresa, who administered to the vulnerable, needy, sick and destitute all her life, under the direst situations. And the works of St. John Bosco was another shining example of the contribution of the Roman Catholic Church to the uplifting of Mankind.The Bosco Orphanage here in Guyana has nurtured many children who would otherwise have been left on the dungheap of life; and this amazing institution owes its genesis to one amazing man, veritably one of God’s chosen. John Bosco (Italian name, Giovanni) was born on the evening of August 16, 1815 in Becchi, Italy. The Boscos of Becchi were farmhands of the Moglia Family. John Bosco was born into a time of great shortage and famine in the Piedmontese countryside, following the devastation wrought by the Napoleonic wars and a drought in 1817. As in the case of most great men who have made meaningful contributions to the world, Margherita, Bosco’s mother, played a strong role in his formation and personality, and was an early supporter of her son’s ideals. In 1825, when he was nine, Bosco had the first of a series of dreams which would play an influential role in his outlook and work. This first dream “left a profound impression on him for the rest of his life,” according to his own memoirs. Bosco apparently saw a man, who “appeared, nobly attired, with a manly and imposing bearing.” The man said to him: “You will have to win these friends of yours, not with blows, but with gentleness and kindness. So begin

right now to show them that sin is ugly, and virtue beautiful.” Poverty prevented any serious attempt at schooling. Nevertheless, it is suggested that the idea to become a priest came from his childhood experiences. At the time, being a priest was generally seen as a profession for the privileged classes, rather than farmers, although it was not unknown. Some biographers portray his brother, Antonio, as the main obstacle for Bosco’s ambition to study, protesting that John was just “a farmer like us!” Nevertheless, Margaret gave her support to John, and he finally left home in February 1828, at the age of 12. Having to face life by himself at such a young age may have developed his later sympathies to help abandoned boys. After begging unsuccessfully for work, Bosco ended up at the wine farm of Louis Moglia. However, although Bosco could pursue some studies by himself, he was unable to attend school for two more years. In 1830, he met Joseph Cafasso, an elderly priest who identified some natural talent and supported his first schooling. From thereon, his rise to greatness was meteoric. He is described as an Italian Roman Catholic priest, educator and writer of the 19th Century who put into practice the convictions of his religion, dedicating his life to the betterment and education of street children, juvenile delinquents and other disadvantaged youth, and employing teaching methods based on love rather than punishment. Opposition to Bosco and his work came from various quarters, and he was interrogated on several occasions, but he persevered and established a network of organisations and centres worldwide to carry on his work. Bosco’s capability to attract numerous boys and adult helpers was connected to his “Preventive System of Education”. He believed education to be a “matter of the heart”, and said that the boys must not only be loved, but know that they are loved. He also pointed to three components of the Preventive System: Reason, religion and kindness. Music and games were also thrown into the mix.

Aren’t we our brother’s keepers anymore? IN the February 21 edition of the Stabroek News, I read with great sadness about a robbery on Sunil and Tina Ramesh across the way from GT&T on Church St. The article stated that Mr. Ramesh was shot twice: in the stomach and abdomen. What I found sad about this article is that when Mrs. Ramesh saw her husband was wounded, she screamed out for help but no one came to their aid; and that shortly thereafter, two women came to help, but neither could drive, so her twice-shot husband had to drive himself to the hospital. Several years ago, I went to a bank near Fogarty’s to withdraw some money. I noticed a security guard kept looking in my direction; I felt uneasy, so I left the bank and drove to a store near GT&T and threw part of the money (in a purse) in the trunk and went into the store. When I came out, two men came up and told me some men had picked the lock of my trunk and took out my purse and drove off. I asked why they didn’t raise an alarm; they said they were frightened, because the men looked armed. Three years ago, I bought a 12-year-old car to use as an animal rescue vehicle; small enough to get around quickly in our busy city. I never thought I would use it as an ambulance for the elderly, but within the past four years, I have picked up several seniors in need of help. Last month, I was approaching the corner of Camp Street and Brickdam when I saw a man, face down, at the side of the road, with many persons standing around throwing water at him. He appeared to be having a seizure. I asked if they needed help, and they said yes. I offloaded my dog carrier (leaving it with a vendor), and some public-spirited citizens assisted in putting the man into my vehicle. I quickly made my way to the Public Hospital where staff quickly and efficiently assisted him to emergency. I explained to the doctor what I knew, and she thanked me for being a good citizen. I told her I just thought I was doing my duty as a Guyanese. I’m a firm believer that the more of us that get involved, the sooner we can improve the situation around us. It doesn’t take much of an effort: we can speak out against animal cruelty; speak up when we see kids pelting bricks and rocks at people of unsound mind or birds and animals; or just stop to ask if a homeless person needs help when they are sitting all alone at the side of the road. As someone said: If we are not part of the solution, we are probably part of the problem. SYEADA MANBODH

In Guyana, at a time when survival was difficult in 1879, Italian Jesuit priest, Father Luigi Casati, Roman Catholic missionary in Guyana, gathered together a number of homeless boys he saw running around the streets of Plaisance. That was the genesis of the St. John Bosco Orphanage. One of Bosco’s primary tools for healing the wounded souls of those under his care was music; and this was integral to the establishment of the bandroom by the Tina Insanally Foundation. The Tina Insanally Foundation Bosco Steel Orchestra is being housed today in a spanking new bandroom, which was opened on May 21, 2012 at the St. John Bosco Orphanage in Plaisance, on the East Coast of Demerara in Guyana. The Foundation was established in memory of the youngest Insanally daughter, Tina, who passed away in May 2010 after a brief illness. Father Malcolm Rodrigues said that the bandroom was a dedication to Tina, who loved and lived music. The melodic fruits of that gift can be enjoyed at the calendar event concert hosted each year-end by the Tina Insaally Foundation. John Bosco died on 31 January 1888. Following his beatification in 1929, he was canonized as a saint in the Roman Catholic Church by Pope Pius XI in 1934. There is great evil perpetrated on Mankind by their fellow men; but equally, there is a super-abundance of good done by some angels in the guise of men. John Bosco was one such man; and pausing to reflect on the goodness of some really great human beings is necessary sometimes to heal our souls.

Stop penalising our youths for wanting change

THIS action against some Guyanese, even though the Guyana Defence Force acted in accordance with the directives of the military court, must be tempered with human kindness. As far as I know, the law must be tempered with mercy and the judiciary should see the other side of the coin! A while back, I saw that three young under-privileged youths were jailed for 3 years each. These are possible scenarios: A young Guyanese, just out of school, is looking for gainful employment to sustain his or her family, or someone from another age group, not employed sees and admires the screen saver of the GDF. The Guyana Defence Force is seen as a viable option; so that person applies, passes the recruitment interview and subsequent background checks. They are trained, survive the rigors of induction, and are successful. Now this is a proud enlisted member of the Guyana Defence Force, who is deemed by all and sundry as a military person, subjected to Military Law, in accordance with the Defence Act, Chapter 15:01 of the Guyana Constitution. If, for some reason, this free, law-abiding citizen who sought and got gainful employment from the Guyana Defence Force, decides that this “wuk” is not to their liking and leaves it without authorization, a problem now arises and their actions are now deemed by the Army as being AWOL. When caught, they are arrested, in accordance with Section 178 of the Defence Act, which stipulates their detention. After they are court-martialled and found guilty, lo and behold, this former law-abiding citizen’s life is now destroyed because now we have cast into society a convicted felon who can never do right in the eyes of society, or ever get another proper job. This is peace-time, and one should have the right to refuse continued employment with any entity; even the army. Imagine, if all the persons that have left my employ for greener pastures without sending in their resignations are criminalized by being sent to jail for three years! Employers do not fire good employees; and employees do not leave jobs they are comfortable in. Could the illustrious Brig. General, Mr. Mark Philips, please take the necessary steps to repeal or temper this law? Let them serve the 21 or 42 days in the military prison, and be dishonourably discharged! It is unfair, and bordering on a slave master’s mentality to inflict the punishment of three years in a civilian prison. This was handed down to persons who were once free, proud Guyanese. These individuals should be allowed to make a choice. If “They don’t want the wuk”, they should be allowed to leave in peace and struck off strength, not turned into a criminal for life. I was told of the hardships and “punishment” one would endure when they voiced their disapproval of “orders”. What is acceptable to one individual will be intolerable to another (PLEASE SEE PAGE 7)

Mr Perry’s about-face THIS letter is in response to Mr. Perry’s regarding accommodation and integration. What’s so disappointing is that the two major ethnicities in Guyana have far more in common than there are differences, but we have allowed those differences to be exploited by a few self-serving persons”, writes Mr. Clarence O Perry, responding in the SN of 3-1-14 to SN columnist Mr. Dave Martins of 2-23-14. Indicative of much decency and pregnant promise, all Guyanese should find much to rejoice with what Mr. Perry seems to crave. The word “Mankind” should have new meaning for all of us today. We can’t be consumed by our petty differences anymore. We will be united in our common interests. Perhaps it is fate that today is the USA’s Fourth of July, and you will once again be fighting for your freedom, not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution, but from annihilation. We are fighting for our right to live, to exist. And should we win the day, the Fourth of July will no longer be known as an American holiday, but as the day the world declared in one voice: “We will not go quietly into the night! We will not vanish without a fight! We’re going to live on! We’re going to survive! Today we celebrate ... our independence day”! Those were the words spoken by black American President Bill Pullman in the movie “Independence Day” after planet Earth was invaded from outer space and mankind faced certain annihilation. Where can Mr. Perry then find disagreement with the sentiments of the SN columnist that notes, “In Guyana and the Caribbean generally, we have found a measure of acceptance or accommodation other than the outright rejection that has been the response in many lands”. In an about-face baitand-switch, Mr. Perry does indeed find disagreement to condemn Mr. Martin’s perceived “accommodation of which he speaks, (as it) is essentially a buyer-seller relationship that is not social integration. Wealth

flows in one direction only – from us to them.” Isn’t this high-grade hypocrisy or someone speaking with a forked tongue? Mr. Perry should really make up his mind: Are the critical differences which have divided Guyanese exclusively based on race or buyer-seller economics, and how did it arrive there? Mr. Perry had himself earlier lamented how Guyanese, - he specifies - “we, have allowed those differences to be exploited by a few self-serving “persons” which only exposes him like an emperor on public parade without clothes. From which and whose mouth should reply be spoken -- not necessarily speaking in tongues -- to now highlight why Mr. Perry’s ignoble exhortations are all hollow fakery, unlike Mr. Martin’s observations. For Mr. Perry to admonish that “Dave Martins could have adopted a more enlightening approach to the issue of ethnic separation … (since)… he objects to Guyana being a prime target of criticism where the issue of ethnic separation is concerned” begs the question where and why is his “a more enlightening approach to the issue of ethnic separation”? In fact Mr. Perry preaches how Mr. Martin is somewhat deficient, because “He rejects the opportunity to urge protagonists that, because of our unique circumstances in the Caribbean, it is possible to demonstrate to other societies that ethnic separation can evolve into ethnic integration (?), and why attempts at ethnic supremacy are foolhardy.” Just to be helpful, and in case we do not get it, Mr. Perry simplifies Mr. Martin to read: ‘Ethnic separation is no big deal. It is a worldwide phenomenon that has been a characteristic of human social evolution since the days of Homo erectus.’ Shouldn’t Mr. Perry define what is his notion of “ethnic integration”?, i.e. is it miscegenation, unless he actually means “ethnic coexistence”, which is obviously lost to him? Mr. Perry points out that

Stop penalising our youths for ... (FROM PAGE 6) free, proud Guyanese. History has shown that a disgruntled, brooding employee is very dangerous. ‘Full Metal Jacket’, a fictional movie comes to mind. After an announced absence of three days, an employee would have been deemed to have left the job in accordance with the Labour Laws of Guyana. Remember the old Guyanese proverb? “Come see meh and come live with meh, is two different t’ing” and “Once a soldier; twice a civilian”. I was inducing my last son to join the Guyana Defence Force’s officer corps and follow tradition, but decided against it after seeing the justice of the Guyana Defence Force. The Guyana Defence Force missed out on a future officer that would have made Guyana proud. The Guyana Defence Force’s screen-saver and the real programme are two completely different environments. I know; I was in there, and it was tolerable then. Former member of the GDF Officer Corp, Air Command

our current Homo sapiens state, which evolved from our homo erectus origins in Africa to “the separation of ethnicities which confronts the human race today, was definitely not a case of one ethnicity being superior to the other”. Mr. Perry is correct about human evolution, but he conveniently forgets concomitant, evolved cultural beliefs, behaviours, values, education, scientific achievements, communications, history and religion all contribute to shaping relationships. European Christian culture and “civilization” decimated the unique native New World population, their culture, lifestyles and cities; and by slaughter and disease, reduced them to servitude and miserable dependency, because they “vanished without a fight”! Those “original buyers and sellers” who enslaved Africans

and stripped them of their cultural merchandise adorning their existence and tribal survival now boldly witness some who do not even suffer from the excess of imitation, or at least embarrassment, in visiting a similar automatic precondition “ethnic integration” paradise on others. “All are equal, but some are more equal than others (George Orwell’s 1984), seems to be causing confusion. In a challenge between extinction and survival, President Pullman’s inspiration that “We will not go quietly into the night! We will not vanish without a fight! We’re going to live on! We’re going to survive!” becomes a necessity which cannot be ignored or compromised. All the efforts and resolve to regain lost African cultural traditions in the New World cannot be but complete waste of time if “ethnic integration”

or “social integration” is finality to allay and replace “the white man’s burdens”. That black is beautiful has not been repudiated or found unattainable, but Mr. Perry would have it so. It was Mr. Perry himself who emphasized “The separation of ethnicities which confronts the human race today was definitely not a case of one ethnicity being superior to the other”. What he actually should do, with all respect, is to advocate and become a confirmed “producer-seller” rather than a perpetual undignified “buyer-entitled beggar”. The enlightened boast how “a capitalist will sell you the rope by which you will hang him”. Can such capitalist sellers who afford and do read newspapers refuse and discriminate against potential “buyers” just perchance to assist their upward economic mobility?

Mr. Perry would be most welcome to explain on whose shoulders lies the burden ‘whiles the trees grow to bear bounty. Ethnic magnificence cannot be more desirable when, by Federalism, it is the best alternative of pursuit within a united Guyana. Compare the wisdom of those leaders who destabilized the elected Ukrainian Government, and in their pyrrhic victory have now inherited their countries falling apart because they would not compromise and talk to each other. In the meantime, all the reparations which Caricom seeks for slave descendants can only give high hopes it will be shared in equality, nationwide. SULTAN MOHAMED

EU remains committed to promotion of gender equality THE European Union (EU) remains committed to the promotion of gender equality and the empowerment of women. Consequently, it is currently funding about 200 projects and initiatives around the world aimed at helping women benefit from education and health care, to work and live free from violence and discrimination and assume their rightful place in society. The rights of all women and girls are a universal priority for the EU and this is reflected in the current discussions on the post-2015 framework for poverty eradication and sustainable development. All that was said by EU Ambassador to Guyana, Mr Robert Kopecký, on behalf of Ms. Catherine Ashton, the EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy and Vice-President of the European Commission. On the occasion of International Women's Day, she said: “We celebrate the real transformation the world has witnessed in women's rights, thanks both to individual achievements and our common participation in political life. “Women have made great advances but there is still a long way to go to achieve a world free from gender-based discrimination. Equal access to education and health services and the chance to become a full participant in political life is everyone’s right and an essential

ingredient of democracy. “Long-term stability and development can only be achieved, if violence and discrimination against women are addressed,” she posited. WORKING CLOSELY Kopecky had said that, in Guyana the EU is working closely with the government and

civil society to promote gender equality and the rights of women, through programmes such as the European Instrument for Democracy and Human Rights and the Non-State Actors/Local Authorities instrument. Those instruments help to empower women, combat domestic abuse and end gender discrimination, by funding

projects with local partners like Help & Shelter, ChildLink, Merundoi and the Mangrove Reserve Women Agriculture Producers (an association comprised entirely of women entrepreneurs). They are examples of the collaboration between the EU and local organisations which are resulting in the empower-

ment of Guyanese women. He said the EU also remains committed to cooperating closely with the Government of Guyana in implementing international resolutions, condemning violence and discrimination against women on all fronts. “Where women prosper, societies prosper; where women suffer, so do the societies they

live in. I have had the privilege of meeting many inspiring women who, through their hard work and sacrifices, have played an extraordinary role in the history of their countries. “Today, I pay tribute to these women whose courage and determination pave the way for future generations,” Kopecky stated.

Ganja accused Corriverton man Man, 32, slaps his mother who told him alleges cops hit his alleges broken to be home early mom after barging nose due to police THIRTY-TWO-YEAR-OLD Trevor Sinclair confessed to slapping his mother after she demanded that he be home by 20:00hrs. The defendant told Magistrate Rabindranauth Singh at the Albion Court on Tuesday, “I am a 32-year old man and she always want me to get home at 8pm.” But the magistrate said to Sinclair, “You are 32-years-old and still at your mother’s house? If you need to remain there you must obey, otherwise you need to get your own home.” Police Sergeant Phillip Sherriff, prosecuting, said that on February 4, Sinclair unlawfully assaulted his 62-year-old mother, Carmen Rhobe. The virtual complainant was resting in her bedroom when the defendant started using a series of expletives, while forcefully

pulling the curtains off the wall. When she objected to his behaviour, he dealt her several cuffs to her face and slapped her to the head. The matter was subsequently reported at Albion Police Station. Meanwhile, the mother pleaded with the court to give him a chance and the magistrate imposed a six-month bond requiring him to keep the peace.

into his home

EIGHTEEN-YEAR-OLD Jairam Singh who allegedly had in his possession four grams of cannabis sativa denied the charge before Magistrate Rabindranauth Singh at the Albion Court. He was granted $20,000 bail after informing the court that six policemen barged into his home, but not before hitting his mother in an attempt to get to him. However, he was advised to make a complainant to the Police Complaints Authority. Meanwhile Police Sergeant Phillip Sherrif, prosecuting, said Singh, known as ‘Johnny’, was seen acting in a suspicious manner at a pig farm at Miss Phobe, Port Mourant, Corentyne. As a result police arrested him and following a search on his person a Ziploc transparent plastic bag wrapped in aluminum foil was removed from his left side pants pocket. The case has been transferred to Whim Magistrate’s Court for hearing on April 7.

Man put on $75,000 bail for malicious damage charge

MAGISTRATE Rabindranauth Singh ordered Shivarlat Persaud to post $75,000 bail at the Albion Court on Tuesday after he denied a charge of malicious damage to property, following a domestic feud with his common-law wife on Valentine’s Day. Police Sergeant Phillip Sherriff, prosecuting, said on Valentine’s Day [February 14], the defendant and his common-law wife Natasha Narrain had a misunderstanding at their home at Hampshire Settlement, Corentyne. As a result, Persaud got annoyed after the woman said she wanted to move on with her life. The defendant is alleged to have maliciously damaged the woman’s belongings which included a shalwar kameez, six short jeans, five long jeans, eight dresses, a quantity of cosmetics and other personal articles totalling $280,000 in value. As a result a report was made and charges were instituted. The case is fixed for trial on March 23.

His case was transferred to Springlands Magistrate’s Court for hearing on April 4. Police Sergeant Phillip Sherrif, prosecuting, said the defendant and Doren Ramcharitar had a prevailing issue and on February 24 at about 14:00hrs the virtual complainant was on his bridge washing his motorcar when the defendant started to abuse the complainant, before picking up a quantity of bottles and pelting them into the yard. The matter was subsequently reported at Springlands Police Station and ranks promptly responded.

Old Kai: Chronicles of Guyana…

PNC and Granger trying to escape responsibility for the ‘disturbances’ - by seeking to lay blame on citizens OLD Kai is not amused by the latest effort of David Granger to rewrite our history in Guyana; he has been doing that for five decades. What is shameful about his current agenda is that he seeks to escape blame for the party he now leads, and his mentor in orchestrating the ‘disturbances’ during the 1960s. During a recent visit to East Berbice, according to an APNU press statement, Mr. Granger visited the gravesite of someone killed during that period, and as he stood there, he had the gall to call on Berbicians to “commit themselves to national unity and racial reconciliation.” This is where the subtle aspect of revisionism comes into play, as he is, in effect, unloading the blame of this dark period from his party to each and every citizen of our country (except the PNC leaders, including himself). Nowhere in the statement is any mention made of the PNC or APNU being remorseful of their actions, as we now have the benefit of declassified information from the US CIA during that period to understand that the PNC leadership was the main architect of that violent period, in their effort to overthrow the legitimate government of Dr. Cheddi Jagan. This information, along with other valuable material is readily available on the Internet for all to read at: http:// www.guyana.org/features/guyanastory/chapter169.html We are told that in 1962, Dr. Jagan, as Premiere, is credited with making a ‘prophetic’ statement after the opposition (PNC/UF) walked out of the House of Assembly to begin their campaign of destruction, using their illogical opposition to the budget proposals by Dr. Jagan’s Government. Said he, “It has come to the knowledge of the government that violence is actually being planned on a general scale by certain elements acting for a minority group… These acts of violence are intended to secure the overthrow of the legally elected government by force, and the tax proposals in the budget are being used as a screen for the general strike for Monday, February 12, 1962… “Every step possible is being taken to bring the civil service in on this strike, and if these designs are successful, the total result will be to cause widespread dislocation of the colony's economy. Such a course of action will be very likely to end in riot and violence. The people who plan this operation must be aware of this. It seems that they are seeking to cause turmoil and unrest in order to halt our march to independence, and the economic wellbeing for all.” That was Dr. Cheddi Jagan over six decades ago. Have you noticed how the general plan of the opposition has not changed? As today, their focus remains on crippling the economy through any and every means, so they can acquire political power.

Further, the violence which followed on February 16, 1962 was forever to be known as “Black Friday”. We are told that “the toll was 56 buildings destroyed by fire; 21 damaged; and 66 both damaged and looted. 29 market stalls were damaged and looted, and five (5) vehicles burned, and five (5) other Police vehicles severely damaged. One police officer died; four (4) looters were killed; and 41 others injured.” After the violence had subsided, Dr. Jagan immediately requested the British Government to appoint a Commission to investigate the causes, which in turn appointed a Commonwealth Commission on May 11, 1962. That Commission, in publicly handing down its findings in early October 1962, laid full blame for the disturbances on the PNC, UF and the TUC. The Commission declared that the Opposition used the budget "to form a veritable torrent of abuse, recrimination, and vicious hostility, directed against Dr. Jagan and his government, and each day gave fresh vigor to the agitation.” The TUC (many of whose members were also PNC leaders)’s decision to call a general strike was criticized as "a breach of faith, and a display of irresponsibility." The Commission further stated: "The story put forward before us was that the unbending and indeed the provocative attitude of the government was the sole reason for the decision to call a general strike or at any rate of precipitating that decision. We find it difficult to believe this version and we are of the opinion that the facts have been greatly distorted by the trade union leaders for the purpose of placing responsibility of arousing the workers' hostility upon the government...” The Commission had also pronounced on the source (the budget) of the illegitimate concerns by the PNC opposition. "The budget provoked fierce opposition from several quarters, and was made the excuse for sustained and increasingly hostile demonstrations against Dr. Jagan and his government. It will be seen that there is nothing deeply vicious or destructive of economic security in the budget. It had been drawn up on the advice of an experienced economist...” Here is where we come to Mr. Granger’s mentor, then opposition leader Forbes Burnham, as the Commission dealt in detail with his role in the ‘disturbances’. "The real motive behind Mr. Burnham's assault was a desire to assert himself in public life, and establish a more important and more rewarding position for himself by bringing about Dr. Jagan's downfall." Even more damning is the fact that we are also informed that the Commission stated, on the evening of February 15, Burnham,

at a public meeting, worked up his audience into a "state of frenzy". It declared: "He began by congratulating his listeners on the splendid performance of the morning when there had been a wholesale breach of the Proclamation. In his peroration, he declared that ‘Government could not be got rid of by merely saying 'Resign' or 'Down with Jagan'. Those are useful slogans; but more than slogans are required in the present circumstances.’" The PNC leader was also described by the Commission as "callous and remorseless". The Commission revealed that “the Governor had appealed to Burnham to use his influence to advise the crowd to refrain from violence, and to use his public address system to ask the people to leave the streets. Burnham, however, declared that he could not assist.” There you have it! Just like what occurred in the Linden unrest in 2012, where the people were instigated by the political opposition of the PNC/R (APNU) and AFC, and then abandoned when it was time to be held accountable for their actions. This is how the opposition, particularly the PNC, has been using and abusing their supporters all along, to the extent that Mr. Granger can now travel to East Berbice and, like a Saint, look down and try to pin the blame on citizens there, and by extension, all across Guyana for the ‘disturbances’. But Mr. Granger’s attitude is not new; in fact, the Commonwealth Commission had noted in 1962 that the opposition leaders’ refusal to appeal to the crowd to desist from violence was a "strangely unfeeling attitude of political leaders when passions aroused by them had been let loose on the town." While our people have moved on from that period, this diabolical attempt by Mr. Granger and his party on Saturday, March 8, 2014 to shift historical responsibility of this period onto our citizens must be condemned by all. David Granger has clearly shown that he at least is not ready for ‘national unity and racial reconciliation’ in our country, with his steadfast refusal to come to terms with the role his party and leader played during this dark period in our history. It is primarily because of this rigid unrepentant mindset, and their almost identical actions today, including their multipronged attack on the economy which has seen the opposition losing support among the masses. Clearly, Guyanese have made enormous strides in the area of ‘reconciliation’, the PNC/APNU and others under the control of Opposition Leader David Granger clearly have a lot of catching up to do.

The role and functions of a proper ‘shadow cabinet’ A SHADOW Cabinet, derived from an Opposition political party leader, is a body that matches, though unofficially, the portfolios of its counterparts in government. Its frequent pronouncements convey the perception that it is monitoring the policies of the government, apart from pointing out areas of perceived shortcomings, and neglect. This function is derived from the role that an official opposition is expected to perform as part of its schedule of responsibilities. Though an opposition party, it is expected to play a responsible role in the affairs and governance of the nation. Can we truly say that APNU’S ‘shadow cabinet’ has been responsible, serving in a manner that is in consonance with its role, to the extent that its leader, Mr. David Granger, has declared his satisfaction with its performance? OBSERVER is admittedly puzzled by such a bold declaration, given this particular opposition party’s anti-national contribution to the nation’s business, as portrayed in the 10th

Parliament. Two examples will suffice. CASE 1: Mr Carl Greenidge, Minister of Finance in the former PNC government, was reported to have been absent from several budget meetings in the run-up to the presentation of Budget 2013. Yet, he was the chief architect of $31B in cuts effected to the national estimates! Can this be labelled as a satisfactory performance by a Shadow Cabinet finance spokesperson? CASE 2: On the same issue of consultation with the Minister of Finance with regard to the estimates, this time for 2014, Greenidge declared that it was a waste of time attending such meetings, since it his opinion that the Budget for 2014 had already been in an advanced state of preparation. In other words, he, in collaboration with his party, refused the minister’s invitation. One can even offer another instance: that of this Opposition party’s refusal to give support to the crucial Anti Money

Laundering and Countering the Financing of Terrorism Bill (AML/CTF). It is unimaginable that some members of the Shadow Cabinet were absent from sessions of the Special Select Committee that has been tasked with finalising this Bill for legislation. All three instances have been critical to the national economic sustenance, more so the current battle to legislate the AML/CTF, the refusal to do which, because of the Opposition’s inexplicable tactics, has resulted in Guyana being blacklisted. It is always held that despite political differences, opposition parties and governments will always find common ground for the good of the particular State. With regard to any parliamentary opposition party, this means its shadow cabinet being pivotal to its final decisions. Therefore, given the Opposition’s mainly irresponsible and unconstitutional actions, what justification does Granger have for such a positive grading of his ‘shadow cabinet’?

CEO appointment a priority for GECOM meeting today By Vanessa Narine

THE overdue appointment of a Chief Elections Officer (CEO) is expected to be a main priority of the Commissioners of the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM) when they meet today. GECOM Public Relations Officer, Vishnu Persaud, told the Guyana Chronicle that the Commissioners were unable to meet sooner because of prior engagements related to training and observation of other elec-

tion processes, among other reasons. He added that since it was reported in the media that four persons were shortlisted and are being considered for appointment to the post, that position remains the same. The Guyana Chronicle understands that among the four applicants are two Guyanese, the acting Chief Elections Officer, Calvin Benn and acting Deputy Chief Elections Officer, Keith Lowenfield. The two Guyanese are reportedly

among the top candidates for the post. GECOM advertised for applicants last August and applicants had until the end of September to make their submissions. Persaud noted that the “substantive number of applications” have already gone through the process of short-listing. The post of Chief Elections Officer became vacant after GECOM declined to renew the contract of Gocool Boodoo, following concerns that were

raised by the Opposition over a computing mistake that was made in the allocation of seats in the 2011 elections. The mistake had been rectified. Also, Boodoo’s late submission of notice of his intent to seek renewal of his contract affected his prospects of being reappointed to the position. GECOM in an advertisement invited applications last August and applicants had until the end of September to make their submissions. The Chief Election Officer is required to play the key leadership role in the Secretariat of the GECOM, with responsibility for implementing all aspects of its operations, and ensuring that results achieved are consistent with the laws of Guyana and the policies determined by the Chairman and Commission. The Chief Election Officer will act as the Commission’s primary point of contact to the staff members of the Secretariat, whose activities include the registration of registrants; the

GUYANA CHRONICLE Tuesday March 11, 2014 distribution of ID Cards; the provision of information and guidance on electoral operational matters to community organisations and other stakeholders. The new official will also be required to represent the Commission’s policies and activities in interactions with stakeholders, and other interest groups, including political parties, non-governmental organisations (NGOs), donor and international agencies, in matters relating directly to the operations of GECOM. The post of CEO has been vacant now for some six months and is integral to the highly anticipated hosting of Local Government Elections. WORK PLAN Asked about the Commission’s readiness for Local Government Elections, given Parliament’s approval of the Local Authorities (Elections) (Amendment) Bill 2013, which states that elections must be held on or before August 1, 2014, Persaud maintained his earlier publicised position and said, “The Bill has not yet been assented to and even when it is signed by the President, GECOM has a work plan that spans 180 days to facilitate the hosting of the Local Government Elections.” He maintained that GECOM would need the six

months of notice to get that plan operational. Asked about the status of the continuous registration process, Persaud noted that the last cycle was completed in December. “The sixth cycle is likely to be commenced in March,” he said. Local government elections were not held in Guyana since 1994. Prior to that, local government elections were last held in 1970. Subsequent to 1994, the elections could not be conducted because of the coincidence with the general and regional elections of 1997. Minister of Local Government and Regional Development, Norman Whittaker, when asked last week about the ministry’s and, by extension, the government’s preparations for the elections disclosed that, in terms of public awareness, efforts continue apace. The minister stated that these efforts, which began last October, are quintessential to ensuring that there is good voter turnout for the elections. H o w e v e r, W h i t t a k e r stressed that the ministry’s readiness, nor that of Guyana’s three political parties, is not the only factor that determines Guyana’s overall readiness to host the elections, citing in particular the preparedness of the GECOM as crucial.

Reform Consultations and Commission on Economy endorse relevance of CSME

(CARICOM Secretariat, Greater Georgetown) SPEAKING about the on-going CARICOM Reform Process, Secretary General of the Caribbean Community, Ambassador Irwin LaRocque, said it had validated the relevance of the CSME as the platform from which to build the Community’s economic resilience. Ambassador LaRocque was speaking yesterday during the opening ceremony of the Twenty-Fifth Intersessional Meeting of the CARICOM Heads of Government in St. Vincent and the Grenadines on Monday. Secretary General LaRocque said following a review of CSME’s operations by the Prime Ministerial Committee on Sunday, the next steps regarding the process would be presented to the conference. He said the Commission’s preliminary report will recommend that priority attention be focused on fiscal sustainability, including debt management, and promoting a conducive environment that would reduce regional impediments to investment and trade and spur private sector growth and development. Speaking in more detail about the CARICOM Reform Process, Ambassador LaRocque said a broad consensus was emerging on the strategic priorities for CARICOM in the next five years. He explained that the Reform Process was built Ambassador around a five-year strategic plan for the Community and a Irwin Larocque transformed Secretariat. He said governance arrangements envisaged based on the change consultations must include all the Community institutions as part of a CARICOM architecture for delivering the benefits of the integration movement. “In that regard, the CARICOM brand must permeate all our institutions and activities as we seek to build our sense of identity” he said. The Secretary General also indicated that issues of growth, sustainable development, ICT, human resources and transportation were among the priorities that heads of government will deliberate on over the next two days. Regarding ICT, Ambassador LaRocque said it was both an enabler of socio-economic development, as well as a sector in its own right for creating employment. He said this sector, in both its forms, must be viewed as the new frontier for regional integration and has to be a significant factor in forging a path towards growth and sustainable development and efforts to strengthen Community spirit. “To enhance those possibilities, the creation of a single ICT space within our Community should be pursued vigorously in our efforts to bring technology to the people, while aiding in building our technological resilience” he said. In discussing human resource development, Ambassador LaRocque said the issue would be discussed from a holistic approach to the region’s education system. He said this would help to address the shortcomings and challenges that had been observed in human resource capacity in both public and private sectors Concluding his remarks, the Secretary General said a sense of unity and solidarity must become the central force that drives the Community to find a route to ignite growth in its economies. “As we move to reform our Community, let us do so driven by that spirit and welcome the participation and involvement of all stakeholders in a way that ensures a CARICOM which fulfils the hopes and aspirations of its citizens” Ambassador LaRocque said.

Part of the 2014 Mash Day celebrations

Mash 2014 executed with considerable success - Coordinator Canterbury THE jubilation and intense festivity that surrounded this year’s Mashramani celebration came to a close on March 7, when the Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sport, in collaboration with the Mash Secretariat, hosted its prize-giving ceremony in Georgetown. In an exclusive interview, the Secretariat Coordinator, Mr. Lennox Canterbury told the Guyana Chronicle, yesterday, that the 2014 programme was executed with considerable, if not astounding success. He noted that it was launched in October 2013 and a series of events in the Calypso, Chutney and related genre were staged as part of the 2014 activities. Canterbury said great em-

phasis was placed, this year, on the intellectual aspect and, as such, several lectures, educative exhibitions, art contests and other competitions were put on. He said that was done so as not to allow the annual event to be a one day celebration but instead offer intellectual, social and cultural contests. While Canterbury acknowledged that the commemorative side of things dealt with the hosting of flag-raising in all 10 Administrative Regions of Guyana, and at the Public Buildings, he expressed disappointment that, yet again, the planners were faced with the congestion problem along Irving Street in the city. He recalled that, over time that has been hampering the progression of floats and cos-

tume bands using the official route on Mash Day. CONTINUING CHALLENGE Canterbury said, as a result of this continuing challenge, the last float did not arrive in the National Park for final judging until after 19:30 hrs. He said this situation will have to be resolved for Mashramani 2015 and an alternative route may very well have to serve as the solution. Canterbury is, however, comfortable with the outcome of the social aspect of Mash 2014 which, he said, was considerably improved by the quality of floats and costumes that took to the road. He is particularly happy with the fact that participants

kept in tune with this year’s theme ‘Cultural Folklore, Celebrating 44’ and brought out the Guyanese culture, folklore and tradition in the form of attractive costumes and dazzling floats. Canterbury was not too pleased, though, with the quality of music supplied by competing calypsonians this year, declaring that the songs reflected too much of political issues and, in some instances, matter that certainly could not be aired on the radio. This year the ‘big truck revelling’ was introduced into the Mash Day Parade by a few entities and, while he has no qualms about that initiative, he posited that the safety of the vehicles would be an issue to be closely examined come

Mash Secretariat’s Co-ordinator, Lennox Canterbury Mash 2015. That aside, Canterbury wishes to thank the Guyana Police Force (GPF), participant celebrants, the media and the general public for an incident free 2014 Mashramani and emphasised that the secretariat will, most certainly, look, in the near future, at means of developing the festival. On that note, he said the Mash Secretariat is open to suggestions to help in making the Mashramani celebrations a ‘true Guyanese festival’.

GUYANA CHRONICLE Tuesday March 11, 2014

Foreign experts engaged to consolidate emergency telephone service A PROPOSAL by expert consultants to consolidate the crime, fire and medical emergency numbers – 911, 912 and 913 – is being considered, Home Affairs Minister Clement Rohee disclosed yesterday. “If it’s a fire you call the same number; if it’s a Police request you call the same number; if there’s an accident you call the same number. We will study whether to keep the 911 separate from 912,” he told a press conference at Freedom House, in Robb Street, Georgetown. Mr. Rohee revealed that two American experts spent five days in Guyana, last week,

reviewing the emergency hotline system, as well as visiting police stations and meeting with various stakeholders. Their report, the minister said, is still to be submitted for review and, while he could not state how much was paid to the foreigners, he acknowledged that Cabinet approved a “tidy sum” for the undertaking. Rohee said: “I felt it was necessary to bring them here, at great cost, for them to do some rectification of the 911 system because the complaints were numerous. Therefore, we couldn’t sit on our hands and do nothing about it.”

For Tuesday March 11, 2014 -13:30hrs

He said, too, that the need for the expertise was necessary, given the lack of “internal capacity” to address the deficiencies in the network. NATIONAL CAPACITY “Apparently, we don’t have the capacity, at the national level in Guyana, to correct this deficiency. So I thought it was necessary to bring persons from outside, since we don’t have the national capacity here to address this problem,” Rohee asserted. Last December, the minister remarked on the poor performance of the 911 service, acknowledging that the criticisms aired to date are genuine. “I am fed up with this whole situation of poor performance of the 911 system,” he declared, referring to the fact that the problem has been raised time and time again. He proffered the opinion that it could not be as a result of staffing, as the police have sufficient “general duties” staff to man the 911 line. “This issue has come up at several meetings….I don’t know if it is a technological problem,” Rohee admitted. In addition to the recruitment of the foreign expertise, the minister also promised to meet with the Guyana Telephone and Telegraph Company (GT&T), the Police, Home Affairs officials and other stakeholders to address the issue.

Aries March 21 - April 19

You didn’t choose your family like you did your friends, but you still have a certain amount of responsibility when it comes to their well-being. Try to be as helpful as possible. Accept responsibility for your mistakes, admit when you’re wrong and accept any apologies headed your way. Taking the first step down the path of reconciliation isn’t as difficult as you think. This is your chance to set things straight between you and an estranged relative, and you should make the most of this opportunity.

Taurus April 20 - May 20

What do you see when you look around your home? If you don’t like the paint colour that’s on the walls, the accessories or the major pieces of furniture, this is the time to make some changes. Beauty is an important element in your life, so if anything is out of place, you aren’t happy. It might be time for some radical changes. Keep in mind that while you don’t have to be an expert in interior design to know what works and what doesn’t, sometimes it helps to have a second opinion.

Gemini May 21 - June 21

You have a firm grip on all of your things and you don’t want to let any of them go. What is causing you to be so possessive? Chances are there is plenty of everything to go around. Loosen your stronghold and think about sharing what you have with the other people in your life. And try not to keep such close tabs on trivial things, such as whose food is whose or who bought the last round of drinks. Sometimes the more you give, the more you get in return. And besides, it might be nice to be known as the generous one.

Cancer June 22 - July 22

If you know what you want, don’t be afraid to go after it. Now it’s your turn to watch your dreams come true. The stars are on your side, which should provide you with the assertiveness you need to go after the things you find important. Use your intuition if you get stuck about which way to go next. Your inner voice is shouting directions to you, but you have to be willing to listen to benefit from it. Although others may offer you their assistance, a certain amount of satisfaction comes with the knowledge you’re doing this on your own.

Leo July 23 - August 22

You might be feeling surprisingly sensitive right now, which means an offhand remark could hurt your feelings pretty easily. Try to take other people’s comments with a grain of salt, or at least don’t let them know that what they’ve said is bothering you. Some people might try to get a rise out of you if they know you’re prone to taking things a little too seriously. Wear a calm exterior, but let the people closest to you know you’re hurting inside. You can take great pride in the way you’re conducting yourself.

Virgo August 23 - September 22

Rely on your best friends for support if you need it. You have strong shoulders and can handle most situations, but it’s nice to know you have allies just in case. Spending time with other people -- preferably a big group of your closest friends or family members -- is a good way to pass the time, and you’re the perfect host or hostess. You’re particularly good at taking care of party-related arrangements, so this is a good time to throw an impromptu gala. You have a knack for perfecting everything right down to the smallest detail, so the get-together is sure to be a smashing success.

Libra September 23 - October 22

Things may not be progressing at the rate you’d like them to, but at least you’re making significant headway. It might be tempting to give up on projects that have been a long time in the making, but you’re closer to completion that you think you are. Buckle down and really focus on what you have to do. The more you put off the tedious, more painstaking steps of the process, the longer it will be until you complete it and can finally wash your hands of the whole thing.

Scorpio October 23 - November 21

You’re the intellectual of the group, the person who asks the meaningful questions and digs for the answers. The big issues are important to you right now, but you’re also enjoying the attention you’re attracting. Just make sure you don’t use big words you don’t know the meanings of. On the same note, make sure you’re actually asking questions you’re really curious about, not just the ones that sound good.

Sagittarius November 22 - December 21

This is a great time to brainstorm, collaborate and form new partnerships with people who really have something interesting to say. You aren’t in the same mood as all of your friends, but that doesn’t mean you can’t hang out together. Your differences complement each other right now, which makes get-togethers all the more energetic. If someone expresses an idea or opinion you don’t understand or agree with, don’t hesitate to question it. You can learn a lot by discussing different topics with different types of people, and they can learn a lot from you as well.

Capricorn December 22 - January 19

Changes are on the way for you, so be open to any and all possibilities that enter your life. You may have to deal with some old issues to make room for new opportunities, but taking care of past business shouldn’t be too difficult. There is one person who stands in your way right now -- and one person who can be of great assistance. It’s up to you to figure out who is on your team and who isn’t, but when you look at all the facts, the answer is obvious.

Aquarius January 20 - February 18

Half of life is just showing up, so don’t sit this one out. The events that are about to take place are too important miss. Find a way to deal with whatever is bothering you and move on. Try not to let your emotions rule the rest of your body. You have enough inner strength to get through these circumstances, but you may not know it yet. Do whatever it takes to summon the courage you need to get past this so you can claim your next victory.

Pisces February 19 - March 20

Although you don’t usually seek out chances to be the centre of attention, right now the stage is a perfectly comfortable place for you to be. If you have a real talent for the dramatic arts, this is a great time to pursue a career in the theatre, movies or TV, or to explore other artistic arenas. If you’re feeling more low-key, put on a show for your nearest and dearest. You’ll be guaranteed a standing ovation.

Adidas and Nike battle for soccer supremacy in World Cup year By Keith Weir and Emma Thomasson LONDON/BERLIN - (Reuters) - With the soccer World Cup only three months away, Adidas and Nike are squaring up for a marketing battle to match the fierce on-field rivalry of nations like Brazil and Argentina. The sportswear giants dominate a soccer kit industry worth more than $5 billion (£3 billion) annually. They vie for the title of market leader in the supply of hi-tech boots and jerseys to fans inspired by Argentine Lionel Messi, who wears Adidas, or new Brazilian idol Neymar, who is in the Nike camp.

Flashback: Barcelona’s soccer player Lionel Messi of Argentina speaks as he presents his Adidas adiZero F50 shoes during a news conference in Barcelona January 13, 2011. A boot-maker since the swiftly, having got heavily in1950s and a World Cup sponvolved in soccer only 20 years sor, Germany’s Adidas reago when the World Cup was gards soccer as its territory played in the United States.

Nike has built its business innovation in design of boots

which the manufacturers claim will give players the edge in the big matches and hopefully go on to be big sellers throughout the rest of the year. “With replica kits, you will suddenly see an uptick in terms of sales during a tournament but with boots it’s more continual,” said Nike’s Edwards. Nike last week launched its new Magista boot, based on the company’s Flyknit technology in which the upper is made from knitted synthetic strands of material. The technology has been used for Nike’s running and basketball shoes and the aim is to create a lightweight product which is also durable. Spanish international Andres Iniesta and German Mario Goetze were involved in developing the boot and Edwards said players wanted a “barefoot with studs” feel. Park players who want to emulate their World Cup heroes will have to dig deep into their wallets as the boot will cost $275. There are only so many ways a soccer boot can be remade and new products from Adidas and Puma draw on technologies and ideas that don’t appear to differ radically from what Nike is doing. Adidas has already launched colourful ‘Samba’ versions of its four main boots and will present its first “knitted” boot in mid-March. Hainer said the technology had the potential to revolutionise how and where Adidas produces shoes. Puma, based in the same

However, a West Indies Cricket Board release yesterday said that Narine has recovered and would be considered for selection. “West Indies spinner Sunil Narine has recovered from the knee injury he suffered during Sunday’s first T20 International against England at Kensington Oval,” the statement said. “He was due to have a scan yesterday morning but it was not required.” Narine is the leader of the Windies attack in the game’s shorter formats, and currently tops the ICC T20 bowling rankings. More importantly, he is expected to be central to the Windies plans as they defend their title at the T20 World Cup, later this month in Bangladesh.

small southern German town as Adidas, wants the World Cup to underline a shift back to performance sports and away from fashion. To that end, it has already launched a snug-fitting bright orange “evoPOWER” boot with yellow laces offset to one side. “It is inspired by barefoot beach soccer in Brazil,” Torsten Hochstetter, Puma global creative director, told Reuters. THE BALL THAT TWEETS Technology is also being used in shirt design. Adidas says its World Cup shirts are 50 percent lighter than previous ones. Eight teams will wear Adidas at the tournament in June, including world champions Spain, Germany and Argentina. Puma launched shirts last week for the eight sides it is outfitting at the World Cup, including Italy, Switzerland and four teams from Africa. The tight-fitting jerseys feature built-in tapes designed to stimulate players’ muscles. “This is based on taping used by physios to provide compression and stimulation,” Hochstetter said. Just like team coaches, the big brands are deploying a variety of tactics to try to gain an advantage. Nike used a Brazil friendly match against South Africa last week to model two kits, playing in the traditional yellow in the first half before switching to a new blue outfit for the second half.

We enjoyed our time in Guyana and I look forward to coming again and even seeing one of these teams in Jamaica.” The Jamaicans first drew 1-1 with Slingerz FC in their first game, thanks to a 90th minute goal from Peter Keys after Anthony ‘Awo’ Abrams had given the Guyanese club the lead. They then went on to defeat a young Buxton United team 3-1 in Buxton on Friday then losing to Alpha United 1-0.

Pistorius vomits in court at Steenkamp autopsy details By Vanessa Romeo PRETORIA, South Africa (Reuters) - Track star Oscar Pistorius, on trial for the murder of his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp, wept and vomited into a bucket in a South African courtroom yesterday after hearing graphic details from her autopsy. Pathologist Gert Saayman was interrupted several times by the 27-year-old Paralympic and Olympic athlete’s sobbing and retching but the defence team argued against an adjournment, saying a break would not improve his state of mind. Earlier, Judge Thokozile Masipa imposed a broadcast blackout on Saayman’s testimony out of respect for Steenkamp’s family and to prevent children from accidentally hearing its contents. “Broadcast would compromise the privacy of the deceased, hurt the interests of the Steenkamps and be against

Masipa, who has been presiding over the week-long trial, extended the ban to live reporting on Twitter.

Pistorius, nicknamed ‘Bladerunner’ for the special prosthetics he wears in competition, admits he shot 29-year-old Steenkamp, a model and law graduate, but argues that it was a tragic case of mistaken identity and that he thought she was an intruder who had broken into his

Root out of World T20, Bell comes in for England (REUTERS) - England batsman Joe Root will miss the World Twenty20 in Bangladesh after fracturing his thumb, with Ian Bell replacing him, the International Cricket Council (ICC) confirmed yesterday. Root suffered the injury during England’s one-day series clincher in the West Indies and the ICC said in a statement that it has approved Bell as his replacement ahead of the tournament, which begins on March 16. Root scored his first international limited-overs century

during the three-match series in the West Indies, which England won 2-1. He played all three games and was injured in the series decider after being struck on the thumb by a Ravi Rampaul delivery. Test veteran Bell has represented England in seven T20 matches, in which he scored 175 runs, and will join up with the squad ahead of their first match of the tournament against New Zealand on March 22. The news comes as another injury blow for England after captain Stuart Broad was

ruled out for the remainder of their T20 series against the West Indies, which began with a 27-run defeat in Barbados on Sunday. Broad is suffering from an ongoing knee injury, but hopes to be fit for the World T20 opener. West Indies are the defending World T20 champions and the three-game series against England, who won the title in 2010, is a precursor for the fifth edition of the tournament. The series resumes today, with the West Indies leading 1-0.

Stag Beer EDFA Division One League

Agricola top table after trouncing Herstelling 8-0; Grove better Soesdyke in epic WITH the intensity of the Stag Beer-sponsored East Bank Football Association (EBFA) division-one league increasing, the latest battle between Grove Hi Tech and Soesdyke was an epic on Sunday afternoon at the Grove Playfield and has been dubbed the most exciting game to date. Grove ran out 5-3 victors but it was not an easy battle, barring some questionable referrals that saw both teams on the wrong end, te game had the attention of the fans throughout the game. Sunday’s other match-up saw Agricola Red Triangle trounce Herstelling 8-0, their

second win in as many matches and with the win they have assumed the number one spot on the points table by virtue of a better goal difference ahead of Kuru Kururu Warriors and Timehri Panthers. Grove were led by their captain Domini Garnett, who has been named in the National Squad that will commence preparations for the Caribbean Football Union championships. He opened the scoring for his side in the 12th minute. Garnett’s goal was soon matched by teammates Denzil Crawford in the 17th minute and Joel Dick one minute later from the penalty spot (first of a double from him) as Grove

raced to a 3-0 lead. But even such a comfortable advantage was not to deter the Soesdyke boys who kept up their offensive efforts. Their persistence brought the desired results and in the 32nd minute. The advantage was narrowed compliments of a Colin McLean goal. This change in fortunes brought more energy to the Soesdyke team even as Grove tried to keep them at bay, the half ending 3-1 in favour of Grove. On resumption, Soesdyke continued where they left off from the first half and five minutes on, they found their second goal to bring down the deficit to one, Dwayne Dillon converting in the 50th minute.

Branford slams home helmet-trick for Charlestown … Wins for North Ruimveldt, Freeburg and Cummings Lodge CHARLESTOWN Secondary School warmed up for their defence of the Scotiabank/ Pepsi Football Academy title defence, by inflicting a 6-1 drubbing on New Campbellville Secondary, when the two sides met in this year’s Milo/ Petra Organisation Under-20 tournament at the Ministry of Education ground last Sunday. They were indebted mainly to Aroydy Branford’s helmet-trick that was backed by a double from Omari James, as North Ruimveldt Multilateral, Freeburg Secondary and Cummings Lodge emulated Charlestown, with wins of their own over Christ Church, North

Georgetown and Tucville. James opened the scoring for the victorious Charlestown lineup in the 28th minute, before Branford added the first of his four goals two minutes later and got his second nine minutes after his first to give his team a 3-0 lead. Branford completed his helmet-trick with two more goals in the 48th and 66th minutes of play, and then watched as James completed his brace in the 68th minute, even as Eukini McPherson ensured Charlestown’s defence was breached, with his 70th minute goal for New Campbellville.

Germany’s Bayern Munich boss Hoeness admits to tax cheating MUNICH, Germany (AFP) The boss of German football giants Bayern Munich, Uli Hoeness, told a high-profile tax trial yesterday that he hid millions of euros more than authorities thought but denied being a “social parasite”. In a surprise twist, defence lawyer Hanns Feigen said that Hoeness cheated the taxman out of 18.5 million euros ($25.5 million) -- vastly more than the 3.5 million euros listed in the prosecution brief. Vowing he wants to come clean on his fiscal wrongdoing, Hoeness told the Munich court that he stashed away the money in a secret Swiss bank account during years of obsessive stock “gambling”. “I am glad that everything is now transparent and on the table,” the 62-year-old former pro

player and businessman, who now faces a possible jail term, said on the first day of his trial. “I deeply regret my misbehaviour. I will do everything to ensure that this distressing chapter closes.” The case against Hoeness -- a football legend, well-connected sports functionary and conservative TV talk show regular from the southern state of Bavaria -- has captivated the sport-obsessed nation When the tax scandal first broke a year ago, it rocked German sports and politics, and even Chancellor Angela Merkel voiced her “disappointment” with the 1970s national player. “I have evaded taxes,” a rueful Hoeness told the packed court. “I am aware that turning myself in to the authorities does not change that. I was hoping to

escape criminal charges with a voluntary disclosure.” Prosecutors argue that his self-reporting of a Zurich account in January 2013 contained irregularities and is invalid because authorities already had Hoeness in their crosshairs at the time. MILLIONS ‘GAMBLED’ ON STOCKS The veteran footballer, who also runs a lucrative sausage company, said that during years of stocks trading from 2003 to 2009 that amounted to virtual “gambling”, he had lost sight of his gains and losses. He had earlier told German media that he received a 20 million deutschmark (10.2 million euro) loan for trading in his Swiss bank account in 2001 from the

Overall, he told the court, he had ended up in the red after his trading years, but he added that he now knew he still has an obligation to pay taxes on the interim winnings he made. But he also stressed that over the years he had donated a total of five million euros for social purposes, telling the court that “I’m not a social parasite”. Hoeness faces a possible jail term if found guilty by the court in the southern city of Munich, which has scheduled a four-day trial with a verdict expected on Thursday. The maximum punishment for major tax fraud under German law is 10 years jail, but shorter terms, which can be suspended, are more commonly handed down. He arrived in court yesterday through a back entrance and gave photographers a pained smile at the start of the trial in a courtroom packed with media and other audience members.

BRIDGETOWN, Barbados (CMC) – West Indies captain Darren Sammy says his side have put the thrill of winning the Twenty20 World Cup behind them and are prepared to work hard in order to defend their title later this month. Sammy, who was at the helm when the Windies beat hosts Sri Lanka in the final two years ago, believes the tournament in Bangladesh from March 16 to April 6, represents a new start for everyone involved but is confident his charges possess the quality to be successful. “It is a great feeling to be World champions but that’s all gone. When we get to Bangladesh it’s a fresh start and everyone’s got to do again what they did in Sri Lanka (two years ago),” Sammy told reporters here. “Which is to play as a team, play for the people and the goal was to win the title. This time around it is to defend the title and the lads are quite confident and they’ve been working hard in order for us to retain that title.” He continued: “We will miss the services of (Kieron) Pollard who is one of our most experienced T20 players (but) we are now much more experienced. Guys have gained more exposure all over the world and we still have the core in the team and we know once we go out there and perform to our full potential we will be T20 champions.” In 2012, West Indies rode
