Mexico celebrates 204th birthday
MEXICAN Ambassador to Guyana, Francisco Olguín celebrated Mexico’s 204th Independence Anniversary last evening with a reception at the Georgetown Club. Speaking briefly at the reception he told of the dream of establishing a solid foundation on a new and stronger relationship between Mexico and Guyana. He noted that “to maximise results, we should exercise our judgments; choose the projects with the highest impacts and use our resources wisely”. He notes also that “the widening of the Panama Canal will increase competition from the economies of Asia in the Caribbean Region”. Prime Minister Samuel Hinds, in his remarks at the reception, congratulated the Mexican Government on their 204th Anniversary. “On behalf of the Government of Guyana, I wish to convey sincerest congratulations to the Government of Mexico on the tremendous progress the country has made since its independence” Hinds said. He indicated that the Ambassador has called for “use of resources wisely”. Hinds called on the Mexican Government stating “I would wish to invite the private sector of Mexico to take advantage of the possiblies in Guyana” as he encouraged that the two countries through this venture can further strengthen the already successful relationship that exists. Mexico celebrates its 204th anniversary today.

Uncle shoots nephew over road dispute By Leroy Smith Vickram Ramdhanny, 31, of 92 Alliance was up to late last evening in a critical condition at the West Demerara Regional Hospital undergoing surgery after he was shot to the head yesterday by his uncle John Bahdur. Ramdhanny,
a licensed firearm holder was shot following several months of dispute over the use of a road in the Kamuni Backdam, West Bank Demerara. Speaking with the Chronicle at the hospital last evening, Komal Ramdhanny, father of the injured man, said that he and his son were
in the backdam working on a stretch of road which they usually use to gain access to their logging concession. The man said that his brother showed up with a gun and told him that he came for him, prompting Komal to sprint to safety. As the man ran, his brother decided to shoot Vickram in the head
and then he fled the scene. Komal picked up his son and placed him a tractor and rushed him to the hospital. Komal told this newspaper that he too is a licensed firearm holder, but his gun was on his tractor which was a short distance away when his brother showed up. Meanwhile, Seeranie Ramdhanny, mother of injured man, explained that the feud between her family
and the assailant has been going on for months and she made reports to the Guyana Forestry Commission and the Ministry of Natural Resources who are both looking into the matter. The woman said that her brother-in-law, who also has a logging concession, has a road which leads to his property and she has a road leading to hers. But then he damaged the road to his concession, and has been
bullying them into allowing him access to his concession through their road, something they did not willingly give into. The Chronicle was told by Mrs Ramdhanny that she and her family has been spending large sums to maintain the road to her concession while her brother has being paying little attention to the maintenance to the road which leads to his.
Fatal stabbing at Mazaruni Prison...
Prison officials mum on knife, cell phone in possession of prisoners By Leroy Smith THERE has been no official word from the administration of the Guyana Prison Service with respect to the stabbing to death of an inmate by a fellow inmate at the Mazaruni Prison. The incident, which was sparked by the disappearance of a cell phone is also engaging the attention of the Guyana Police Force, which is trying to determine how the prisoner was able to get access to an item which is highly prohibited. Yesterday the Chronicle newspaper was told by senior police sources that the incident escalated when the deceased, Theon Smith, went to retrieve the cell phone from it’s hiding place and could not find it. He accused fellow inmate Akeem Edwards of removing the device and they got into an argument. During the lunch break at the facility, Edwards armed himself with a knife and stabbed Smith several times. Smith was rushed to the Bartica Hospital where he was pronounced dead on arrival. Meanwhile repeated efforts by this publication to get a comment from the Deputy Director of Prisons were unsuccessful. The official said that he is not permitted to speak with the media. On Sunday this publication received information of the incident and was able to confirm that both the deceased and the suspect were sent to the facility for multiple robbery under arms charges and were each serving three five-year sentences.

Benn assures no elections gimmick…
Gov’t provides free public transportation - EBD, WBD, WCD, ECD commuters to benefit By Leroy Smith FOLLOWING threats by some minibus operators to withdraw their service in order to press demands for fare increases, the Government has responded promptly by rolling out big buses to provide free transportation for commuters. The buses which are contracted from the Knight Rider Bus Service and complemented by buses owned by the Public Works Ministry will serve the following areas during morning and afternoon peak hours: East Bank Demerara, East Coast Demerara, West Coast Demerara and West Bank Demerara. Speaking with reporters yesterday at the Stabroek Bus Park, Transport Minister, Robeson Benn said that the buses will continue to provide the service as long as necessary. He indicated that the Government is prepared to keep the system in place all the way to December if the operators fail to come to the bargaining table. The minister said that the operators have been forcing commuters to pay higher fares and in some cases double fares. In that light, the Government is responding by forcing operators to come to bargaining table, instead of unilaterally increasing their fares. “We at the ministry have become increasingly concerned about the state of public transportation resulting out of threats for the withdrawal of services, forcing people to pay higher fares, double fares in some cases, and forcing people to pay full stage fares if they are dropping short of the original route of the buses,” Benn stated. Minister Benn said that the Government had to respond by putting the big buses into service at no cost to commuters in order to alleviate the situation and bring the minibus operators to a position where they will consult with the Ministries of Transport and Trade with respect to any increase in fares. Benn added that there will be no encouragement of
a situation where commuters are forced to suffer arbitrary fare increases by some groups of operators. The service initiated by the Government in the past following similar action by operators saw them leaving passengers stranded when the buses provided by Government were not plying the route outside peak hours. The minister said yesterday that the arrangement the ministry has in place now will last as long as it has to and while the service was rolled out over the weekend with an initial four buses with last evening an additional six buses joining, the ministry is prepared to have a total of twenty buses plying the above listed routes which are the ones most affected by the price gouging by some operators. The public transportation system has to be regulated, the minister stated, adding that if the present arrangement has to be adopted to make it possible it will be done. The buses plying the routes are 30 and 44-seat capacity buses. The buses will be on the bus parks and leave when they are filled. Commuters will not be dropped off to their doors

but the usual drop off points as the minibuses. Where there are instances that the buses are taking very long to be filled, they will be allowed to move off from the park and pick up persons along the way, Benn stated. PRICE TAG Asked about the financing of this initiative, the minister said there is no price tag attached to this just yet. He said that while there is a line item in the budget that provides for other services, the funds that were allocated under that heading will be used to facilitate this service to the travelling public. He remarked that if the arrangement has to go on for a very long time then the ministry will be seeking additional funds to address the issue so that persons are not stranded at the bus parks or on the roadways. Meanwhile when asked about the possibility of the move being seen as an elections gimmick, the Transport Minister firmly stated that he does not expect it to be seen in that manner since everyone knows the plight of the travelling public at mornings and nights. He said that the problem
of not being able to travel to and from home is an immediate one for citizens and the Government has responded to this need. And speaking with reporters, director of the Night Rider Bus Service, Salim Twahir related that the arrangement is not one that has a cash
transaction. He told reporters that the ministry as part of the agreement would meet the operational costs for the buses which include fuel and paying drivers. He said that his company is just trying to assist the process of getting persons off the roads, especially school chil-
dren who are often left very late at the bus parks because operators refuse to take them home for the normal fares. He said that the buses would take approximately $25,000 in fuel if supplied at Guyoil stations and this can cover four return trips, plying the routes earmarked.

Malta boat sinking ‘leaves 500 dead’ - IOM (BBC news) ABOUT 500 migrants are feared dead after their ship was rammed by another boat near Malta last week, a migration body said. Two Palestinian survivors told the International Organisation for Migration (IOM) that the boat had been intentionally sunk by traffickers. They said the boat had left Damietta in Egypt in early September. The IOM says that more than 2,500 people are now believed to have drowned in the Mediterranean this year. News of the sinking near Malta emerged as another vessel carrying 250 people sank off the coast of Libya. Over 200 people are feared to have drowned in that incident. IOM spokeswoman Christiane Berthiaume said that the two survivors from the Malta sinking were rescued on Thursday, the day
after their boat sank. They said traffickers rammed the boat after a “violent confrontation” on board. The IOM said there were nine known survivors in total. The boat had been carrying Syrians, Palestinians, Egyptians and Sudanese, the survivors said. The passengers, who included women and children, were reportedly told to move to a smaller, less safe boat. When they refused, the traffickers sank the larger vessel, the eyewitnesses said. The Maltese authorities
have not yet commented on the incident. The UN says more than 130,000 migrants have arrived in Europe by sea this year, compared with 80,000 this year. Italy has received more than 118,000 migrants, the UN said. Many attempt to cross from North Africa and the Middle East in unsafe and overcrowded vessels. The UN’s Andrej Mahecic told the BBC that more than half of those arriving by boat were refugees from Syria and Eritrea.

Islamic State crisis: World leaders pledge Iraq support (BBC News) THIRTY countries have pledged to help Iraq fight Islamic State (IS) militants “by all means necessary”. A joint statement by foreign ministers taking part in a major conference in Paris said support would include “appropriate military assistance”. The talks had been called to agree on a strategy to combat the group, which controls large parts of Iraq and Syria. The meeting followed a whirlwind tour of the Middle East by US Secretary of State John Kerry. Mr Kerry, who attended the summit, has been drumming up support for a plan of action unveiled by President Barack Obama last week. The CIA estimates that Islamic State has between 20,000 and 31,000 fighters in Iraq and Syria. The murder of British aid worker David Haines by IS militants, shown in a video released by the group on Saturday, has added momentum to the plans, says the BBC’s Lucy Williamson in Paris.
Western sanctions are testing Russia’s strength: Medvedev (Reuters) – RUSSIA’S strength is being tested by sanctions imposed by the West and the country must react in a level-headed way, Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev told members of the country’s
ruling party, United Russia, on Monday. “When a series of our partners, if they can be called that, test Russia’s strength through sanctions and all kinds of threats, it is important not to succumb
to the temptation of socalled easy solutions and to preserve and continue the development of democratic processes in our society, our state,” Medvedev said in a televised speech. The European Union

Swiss say would shield Snowden from ‘political’ extradition to U.S
Protesters supporting Edward Snowden, a contractor at the National Security Agency (NSA), hold a photo of Snowden during a demonstration outside the U.S. Consulate in Hong Kong June 13, 2013. (Credit: Reuters/Bobby Yip) (Reuters) - FORMER intelligence contractor Edward Snowden could be granted safe passage in Switzerland if he helped a potential criminal inquiry into U.S. spying there, the Swiss public prosecutor’s office said on Monday. He would probably not be extradited to the United States if Washington asked, but it was also unlikely that he would be granted political asylum, according to a document laying out Switzerland’s legal options if Snowden were to visit. The prosecutor’s office, which provided the document to Reuters, stressed the issue was “purely hypothetical” because Snowden had

not been invited to come from his current refuge in Russia. It had no further comment. The document was leaked last week and prompted a lively debate in the Swiss media. Some German politicians have suggested inviting Snowden to Germany to testify about National Security Agency spying there, but Berlin has ruled that out to avoid a clash with Washington over extraditing him to the United States. Michael McCaul, Republican head of the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Homeland Security, reacted to the Swiss debate by telling the U.S.-based Foreign Policy magazine that Snowden should not be allowed to “trade our intelligence community’s sources and methods for safe haven in other countries”.

UNEASE ON SOLDIERS’ CALLOUT
Rowley wants President, PM to explain why Defence Force reserves called to duty (Trinidad Express) OPPOSITION Leader Dr Keith Rowley has called on the Prime Minister and President to explain why Trinidad and Tobago Defence Force (TTDF) reserves were called out to lend security support recently. In an immediate response Sunday, National Security Minister Gary Griffith accused Rowley of creating instability and panic in the country as he stressed that calling out reserves was nothing new and has been done for the past several years, including under the former PNM regime. Rowley, in a release, stated that it came to his attention that, on August 29, 2014, President Anthony Carmona issued a proclamation which deemed it necessary to call out to duty members of the TTDF to serve “as a reserve corps to assist the Trinidad and Tobago Defence Force for parades during the months of August and September 2014 as well as to assist the civil authority in providing security support for law enforcement activities throughout Trinidad and Tobago leading into and including the Christmas period — for the period 29 August, 2014 to 7 January, 2015”. Rowley noted the Defence Force Act stated that the President may call out the Volunteer Defence Force or any portion of it for actual military service with their arms and ammunition in aid of the civil power in any case in which a riot, disturbance of the peace, or other emergency requiring such service occurs. Rowley stated that based on this, it was clear that this move should only be invoked in the specific situations where there is a riot, disturbance of the peace or other emergency situation taking place. He called on the President and Prime Minister to immediately provide explanations to the nation as to why this specific power designed only for emergency situations, where it is decided that the Trinidad and Tobago Police Service, being the civil legal authority charged with protection of the citizenry, is unable to suppress, or prevent or deal with the emergency, has been invoked. Griffith responded by a release which stated that such a “call out” has been done during this period annually for the past several years and in this case 50 reserves were to assigned to assist in specific duties for a temporary period.

Designer graves
This mother would settle for nothing less than a castle for her teenage daughter. (Jamaica Observer) ANNOTTO Bay Cemetery in St Mary has become less of a morbid graveyard and more like an attraction as passers-by stop daily to take pictures and examine the ‘designer graves’ depicting the lifestyles that the deceased once lived or wanted to live. From a fairytale castle to an aeroplane, the intricately designed tombs have given the cemetery a fanciful feel, and a well-needed facelift. Conceptualiser of the breathtaking designs and proprietor of Exodus Funeral Home, Errol Green, said more and more people are requesting the service for their loved ones. “I bury people according to their lifestyle. From the programmes to bookmarks, everything reflect the per-
son’s lifestyle and so I wanted the graves to reflect what the person used to be like or what they wanted to be like,” Green said. While he would not disclose what these tombs cost, Green said he tailors the designs to meet families’ budgets. He added that the cost would be dependent on what a particular family is requesting. He, however, explained that building a regular tomb, inclusive of a regular headstone, can cost over $100,000, while a granite tomb can cost up to $1million. Green, whose funeral home is located in the heart of Annotto Bay, said the idea to make the graves fancy was born when he decided to put more dignity into the funeral business.
“After a person is deceased and you are going to bury that person that is the last you are doing for him. That is his final resting place, and so it must be looking good,” he told the Jamaica Observer North East. He added that he got the idea a year ago and built the first such grave — a fancy two-storey house, complete with an Escalade truck in the carport — for his mother who was buried some 15 years ago. “When my mom died, I was not in the funeral business at the time and was not in a position to afford the type of funeral I would have liked for her, and so this tomb I gave her is the symbol of the kind of house I would love to give her if she were alive,” he said.
Brazil builds giant Amazon observation tower (BBC News) CONSTRUCTION has begun on a giant observation tower in the heart of the Amazon basin to monitor climate change. The Amazon Tall Tower Observatory is expected to rise 325m from the ground. Its instruments will gather data on greenhouse gases, aerosol particles and the weather in one of the largest continuous rain forests on the planet. Brazilian and German scientists hope to use the data
to better understand sources of greenhouse gases and answer questions on climate change. The tower is being constructed out of steel that was brought thousands of kilometres from the south of Brazil to the site, about 160km (100 miles) from the Amazonian city of Manaus. Because of its height, the tower will make it possible to investigate the alteration and movement of air masses through the forest over a
distance of several hundred kilometres. “The measurement point is widely without direct human influence, and therefore ideal to investigate the meaning of the forest region for the chemistry and physics of the atmosphere,” said Jurgen Kesselmeier, the project coordinator for the German side, quoted on the Max Planck Institute for Chemistry in Mainz website.
Addressing of corruption a priority, says finance minister (Jamaica Observer) MINISTER of Finance and Planning Peter Phillips says addressing the issue of corruption remains a priority for the Government. According to the finance minister, the public perception of corruption continues to mar the political process in Jamaica, despite the passage of various pieces of legislation and strengthening of extensive requirements for the reporting of incomes by public officials. “There is perhaps no single issue which saps public confidence in Government than this spectre of corruption and which impedes our capacity for collective action,” said Dr Phillips. He was delivering the opening address at a conference on the Westminster system of Government, held last Thursday at the University of the West Indies’ Regional Headquarters on the Mona campus. Dr Phillips said the speedy passage of legislation to establish a single anti-corruption agency in Jamaica is key to tackling corruption, arguing that the creation of such a body with the requisite pow-
ers of investigation and prosecution would ensure even greater transparency and accountability among public officials and result in a reduction in corrupt practices in Government. Establishment of the anti-corruption agency will fall under the provisions of the Integrity Commission Bill, which was tabled in Parliament earlier this year. The agency will be mandated to promote and strengthen measures for the prevention, detection, investigation, and prosecution of acts of corruption, and to monitor and investigate the award of government contracts and prescribed licences, and to provide for other related matters. In addition, the commission will receive declarations from all parliamentarians and public officials relating to their assets, liabilities, and incomes. The conference was organised by the Sir Arthur Lewis Institute of Social and Economic Studies and the University College of London, and held over two days under the theme: ‘Beyond Westminster in the Caribbean: Critiques, Challenges and Reform’.
Relationship discord among main causes of suicide — study (Jamaica Observer) APPROXIMATELY 20 per cent of high school students are at risk of committing suicide, a new research has shown. Following a cluster of youth suicide in 2011, the Ministry of Health conducted a research which said that Jamaica’s mid-adolescents stand at the highest risk of committing suicide. The 2012 study, which was funded by the United Nations Children’s Fund, collected data from 3,471 grade eight, 10, 11, and 12 students across 38 randomly selected secondary schools. The findings were shared on World Suicide Prevention Day, last week, at the Hope Fellowship Church in St Andrew. “Mid-adolescence seems to be the most tumultuous years, and those [in this category] are the ones we need to target. Thirty-five per cent (1,075 students) admitted to suicidal ideation in their lifetime, 69.9 per cent experienced the thoughts, 25 per cent think about it often,” explained Dr Judith
Leiba Thomas, director of child and adolescent mental health in the health ministry. She added that students in grade 10 were most at risk, while those in grade 12 had the lowest risk. Moreover, she said that the association, in terms of gender, showed that more females expressed lifestyle suicidal ideation and attempted suicide, but more males actually complete suicide. The study revealed that, while repeating grades and learning problems were associated with suicide risk, there was no relationship between suicide and a child’s relationship with his parents or attitude towards school and school performance. “The parental factors are important in childhood, but by mid-adolescence other factors are taking the forefront, such as peer factors and biological factors,” said Leiba Thomas. But, in examining those who attempted suicide and turned up at hospitals, the study focused on seven hospitals over the oneyear period.

Resilience of Amerindians buoyed by Government support DURING Budget 2014, as Guyana’s First Peoples turned out in their numbers to protest the Opposition combo’s heartless slashing – once again – of budgetary allocations with which Government, in collaboration with village Toshaos and elders, had estimated would catalyse the developmental trajectory of Hinterland communities to levels that would enhance their individual lives and communal lifestyles. One has to ponder on the betrayal of their people by Opposition Amerindian MPs, for whom it seems their parliamentary pay, benefits and power supersede the mandate provided them by their people’s votes to represent their interests in the highest national forum for justice. But justice is only given to living beings, while Opposition MPs see Guyanese only as ‘collateral damage’ in their pursuit of self-empowerment and self-aggrandisement. The combined Opposition’s ruthless and inexplicable $1.1B cut to the 2014 budgetary allocations to advance Amerindian development resonates in their historical contempt for Guyana’s First Peoples. They cut away $796M provision for YEAP; $12M for construction of village offices and multi-purpose
buildings; $5.6M for the purchase of sport gear and musical instruments; $30M for implementation of drip irrigation systems and purchase of tractors; $1.5M for eco-tourism facilitation; $200M for 2014 Presidential Grants; $5M for the Secure Livelihood programme; $4M for the language revival programme, among other developmental programmes to enable the socio-economic growth and development of Hinterland communities and the long-suffering Amerindian peoples. Despite promises by Opposition parties in efforts to inveigle Guyana’s First Peoples to vote them into office during elections campaigns, PNC coalition parties (including the AFC) which are perceived as mere satellites hanging on to the PNC’s coattails, have historically betrayed the Amerindian people’s trust, time and again, treating them with utter contempt. The disdain that Opposition leader David Granger showed in dismissingly giving the media nebulous and scurrilous explanations for the cuts, blaming the PPP/C Government for all their contemptible actions toward all the Guyanese people in general, and Guyana’s First Peoples in particular, is a replication of their treatment of indigenous people’s dating
back to decades of PNC in politics. But, conversely, the PPP/C has never seen Amerindian peoples as separate from the Guyanese nation and has always been instrumental in the development of Indigenous communities – in or out of office. Since Dr. Cheddi Jagan decreed September to be Amerindian Heritage Month in 1995, there has been projected into the national and psychological psyche that Amerindians are no longer going to be a marginalised people subsisting on the crumbs of developmental initiatives within the national construct, but will be fully integrated into the holistic national programme for development by the PPP/C Administration; and one of the basic components of this new paradigm is the Amerindian Act. The Amerindian Act, 2006, provides for, inter alia: 1) Grants to communal land: Unlike the old Act, the new Act includes a process for the granting of land. For instance, a community can apply for land once they can prove that they have been living there for at least 25 years and the Minister must commence an investigation and make a decision within 6 months. 2) Leases: The Minister is not required to approve
leasing of titled Amerindian land, as opposed to the 1st. Act where the Minister is required to approve it. In the new Act, the communities are only required to seek the advice of the Minister. 3) Intellectual Property Rights: With respect to the use of scientific research, the Researcher will, among other things, have to submit to the Village Council a copy of any publication containing material derived from the research. 4) Environmental Protection: The Amerindian Act supports the need for the communities to use their natural resources in a way that lends support to the concept of sustainability: Impact Assessments will have to be completed in accordance with the Environmental Protection Act. 5) Mining and Forestry: Amerindians will have a legal right to traditional mining with the consent of the Village Council and they must comply with the relevant legislation. With regard to forestry, the Village Council plays an integral role in determining who is allowed to use their land and on what terms. 6) Governance: The Village Council is empowered to establish rules for their communities and set fines within the legal confines of the law. Notably, the money received due to
the non-adherence of the rules, goes into the Village Council’s account, not the Government’s. 7) Consultations: More than half of the recommendations are reflected in the Act. These inclusions were as a result of recommendations from the communities and other stakeholders. The process lasted two years and is an unprecedented one in this part of the hemisphere. In November 2010, The Amerindian Act 2006 (Commencement) Bill 2010 was passed in the National Assembly, with the new legislation correcting an oversight that saw the Amerindian Act 2006 failing to come into force The Bill was piloted by Amerindian Affairs Minister Pauline Sukhai, who explained that the Bill validated the commencement of the Amerindian Act 2006, with effect from March 14th 2006. The Amerindian Act brought before the National Assembly in August 2005, was debated in October of the same year, and was sent to Select Committee, thereafter being subjected to another round of debates, and finally passed in Feb-
ruary 2006. Then President Bharrat Jagdeo assented to it sometime after and it came into effect shortly after in 2006. According to Sukhai, a Commencement Order was signed by the then Amerindian Affairs Minister Carolyn Rodrigues-Birkett, but a Gazetted copy of the order was misplaced, hence the necessity for the new Bill. The Amerindian Affairs Minister said the Amerindian Act 2006 is a product of the Amerindian people’s intelligence and testimony to the “free, prior and informed consultation” approach that the current administration advances in development. The Amerindians of Guyana are given equal status within the landscape of Guyanese citizenhood, while yet being encouraged to sustain their cultural and traditional norms, which far surpass the treatment meted out to indigenous peoples of even first-world countries. The Amerindian Act is merely one component of the holistic approach successive PPP/C Governments have taken to enhance economic growth and social development in Amerindian communities.
The police must stop and search these suspects ARMED robbery is an everyday occurrence in Guyana today. One has to just tune into the various media fora and get the morbid report of another fatal armed robbery. It never ends, because the bandit is always one step ahead of the police. One sure tactic used in these successful attacks is their mode of transport,
that is, the use of the CG Motorcycles as well as expensive motor cars. The criminals’ main targets are businessmen and business places where, to date, many successful heists have been made. Law enforcement is often caught flat-footed, always turning up at the scene minutes later when the bandits have already made good their getaway.
When these things happen criminals get even more brazen in their nefarious activities and more and more businesses are targeted. We cannot allow this to happen; we cannot allow the bandits to believe that they are getting the better of us with their banditry. Successful forays by bandits hurt honest, hard-working achievers in business while
stifling investment. No one would want to invest in a society where bandits roam free and their hard-earned money and their lives are at stake. This is the worst case scenario confronting us. The point I am making is that, had those very policemen stopped the CG Motorcyclists or stopped and searched the suspicious vehicle then it would have
been a stitch in time. A very serious robbery would have been foiled and the suspects placed before the courts and given the punishment they rightly deserve. My call to law enforcement is to be more on the alert for these “vehicles”; be more vigilant - stop and search suspicious elements in the aforementioned mode of transport. Stop
and search them at different times, late at nights or early morning, during rush hour, or any time, because the police must always be on top of their game. Don’t let the criminals off the hook. When criminals realise that a dragnet is out there for them then certainly the crime rate would see a downward spiral. NEIL ADAMS

Plainer, less ambiguous speaking and posturing needed PRESIDENT Donald Ramotar is seeking clarification from Opposition Leader David Granger about his ultimatum on local government elections. Perhaps the President should have put it plainer - “In light of the pending no-confidence vote scheduled for October, I need to know, as soon as possible, which one of the elections, Local or General do you wish to have first before I can set a date for either.”
From afar, the Government seems to have a tendency to act or react to the Opposition with a more political slant than a practical one. They should simply address all issues with all the facts, whether favourable or not to them, together with what remedial action is being taken if necessary, with an invitation for the Opposition to present what proof they have to dispute its position. The Government must include members of civil
society in any discussions with the Opposition to afford Guyanese a more independent version from those of the political parties as to what transpired at such meetings. The Government must be the first to admit a problem and must be seen to be concerned about it, and aggressively seek to determine what happened, assess accountability, pursue any actions needed and report its findings promptly to the public. People need to see that
Governments are transparent, accountable, fair and effective, throughout their tenure. Plainly speaking, Government must act as elected public servants and not as a party in power, and the Opposition must show that it is making proposals and willing to cooperate with Government in the public interest and not simply opposing and making statements without valid evidence or reasons: just saying.

The Ukraine problem is a purely European problem I WRITE in connection with the situation in the Ukraine where attempts seem to be made to project it into Guyana. May I point out a few things about that situation: (1) The Ukraine problem is a purely European problem and not a world problem and the Europeans should be allowed to settle the problem by themselves than to have other intervening, complicating and making it even more difficult to solve. (2) The genesis of the problem: Ukraine has always been in the Slavic-Russian sphere. There has always been free migration either way and many people in the highest governmental and other circles in the Russian Federation are Ukrainian or
of Ukrainian origin. There is little difference between Ukrainians and Russians and it hurts the psyche of both sides when people are being killed. After the overthrow of the last pro-Russian President, a pro-Western President took over and he wished to bring Ukraine into the European Community (EU) and join the NATO military alliance with NATO now coming to Russia’s borders. In so doing, he was attempting to yank Ukraine from its Slavic roots and at the same time ignore the wishes of a large percentage of his population. With an almost 19th century adventurism, the EU and the West assiduously started to assist the pro-Western President in his designs.
(3) The Russian Federation belatedly responded when their interests had been almost completely extinguished. To try to restore some equilibrium, they seized Crimea which was part of Ukrainian territory. Crimea had always been part of Russia until Khrushov, President of the USSR, detached it from Russia and joined it to Ukraine. (4) Solution: (a) the rest of the world should allow Europe to solve the Ukrainian problem and should not get involved since non-European involvement would make the problem more intractable. (b) The Russian Federation should immediately work out a Crimean solution whereby they would permit free movement and
settlement of Ukrainians into Crimea with all rights of citizens. Elements of such a solution would be found in the relations between Britain and Ireland from Irish Independence onwards. (c) Ukraine itself should work out some kind of Federal or near-Federal Constitution whereby they could unify and integrate the whole nation again. (d) Ukrainian neutrality should be guaranteed by the West and Russia and they both should give the Ukrainians the billions of dollars they were both offering when the Ukrainian problem started. The Ukrainians, from being an unhappy people would then be one of the happiest in the world. R. WILLIAMS
Working towards a cohesive society is a continual PPP thrust By David Degroot IN the context of Guyana’s socio-political demographics, the question is being asked what, in the final analysis, is “national unity”; which, according to Ralph Ramkarran, is “... now a popular call”? Our political history should inform us - and surely Ralph himself, together with Henry Jeffrey, Tacuma Ogunseye, as well as Grantley Walrond must be aware that the late Cheddi Jagan and his nineteen fifties PPP led the way in uniting almost a hundred percent of the electorate on the basis of national unity, despite the fact that we were then British Guianese. Students of history are well aware of the imposed fate of that inspired policy of the PPP. Yes, the question of national unity is not a new phenomenon that conforms to the basis of moving this country forward; and there is no need to have to proselytise on the virtues of unity. The PPP have long succeeded in awakening the minds of the people on the necessity of closing ranks and getting together. They continue to practise the policy of togetherness, which is inherent in the call for a national democratic front. But what is pellucid in this transformation, and in consonance with our socio-political demographics and relevant politics, is the accommodation of one
party by the other. In this regard, the PPP has led the way once before and naturally should be expected to again assume the responsibility for spearheading the initiative it takes to make a reality of national unity. Over the long years those intellectuals and sundry professional commentators have resorted to “beating around the bush” when it comes to our political impasse. No one has attempted to say it as it is; that is, the perceived racial bias being promoted by the two dominant parties. But an honest review of the history of the PPP will reveal that racial and working-class unity has been steadfastly embraced as a principled policy. The People’s Progressive Party should again be given the mandate of welding the two groups together, as happened in 1953. The next elections will provide the opportunity for Guyanese to show their appreciation of the PPP’s endeavours toward building a united Guyana.
American Janet Jagan is Guyana’s matriarchal freedom fighter I ATTENDED the ‘Thunder in Guyana’ show and was touched by the immense dedication and patriotism lived by the Jewish American wife of late President Cheddi Jagan, the late President Her Excellency Mrs Janet Jagan.
While much of our history is still unknown and rift with misrepresentation, there is no doubt that the sparse attendance by the Guyanese Diaspora at this Toronto Caribbean Film festival event, hosted by a Trinidadian artiste, who by
the way was given the title film from the Jewish Film festival, is indicative of the growing indifference of our national pride and lacklustre attitude towards our heritage. Guyana is a country of extreme potential, sitting on the most strategic edge
of South America and the documentary demonstrates boldly the imperial powers’ past obstruction of fair democratic courses of political engagement in Guyana. It is unfortunate that we have lived and developed much, but learnt little from this
bloody and tearful history, such as the sacrifices of the Enmore martyrs and long days of strike, as we struggled everyday on the battleground of poverty, corruption and crime. As Bob Marley rightly said, those who do not know
their history will not be proud of their identity, and that is our own crisis in the making. I believe, instead of saluting her as ‘blue- eyed bhoujie’ we should nationalise her as blue-eyed Maa! HABEEB ALI

Granger on PSC nominations...
APNU has fulfilled its obligation under the Constitution LEADER of the Opposition, Brigadier (Rtd) David Granger noted last Friday that his Party, A Partnership for National Unity (APNU), has fulfilled its obligation under the Constitution in the nomination of the five-member Police Service Commission. He made the declaration at APNU’s weekly press conference at its Hadfield Street, Werk-en-Rust Office of the Opposition Leader. Granger, who aligned his views in support of the reconstitution of the Service Commissions with that of President Donald Ramotar, on August 22 assured that the nominations, which were made by APNU with regards to the members of the Police Service Commission, “were in accordance with the Constitution.” The five members who will be serving on the Police Service Commission were sworn in on Thursday, September 4, before Commander-in-Chief of Guyana’s Armed Forces, President Donald Ramotar, at the Presidential Complex here in Georgetown. The Commission will be headed by Omesh Satyanand, who will serve as its Chairman, while the other members are: Lloyd Smith, Keith John, Harold Martin and Carvil Duncan. Responding to questions from the media regarding his confidence in the appointed members, Granger said: “APNU has performed its functions under the Constitution, and it is not for me to say whether those individuals appointed by the President are competent or incompetent. We will have to see how the Commission works.” The Police Service Commission is one of four service commissions in operation here, the other three being the Judicial Service Commission (JSC); the Teaching Service Commission (TSC); and the Public Service Commission (PSC). The lives of these Commissions expired over the past year, and the constitutionally mandated provisions for their reconstitution have finally been completed. (Ravin Singh)
Police faced with two investigations after Sunday’s fatal accident on C/tyne H/way THE death of pedestrian Reena Devi Singh, called ‘Asha’ and ‘Ashmanie’, of Letter Kenny Village, Corentyne, Berbice has sparked two investigations, respectively in causing death by dangerous driving and in the subsequent torching of the blue station wagon, motor car PMM 3080. Police Deputy Commander Marlon Chapman, acting Berbice Divisional Commander in absence of Commander Brian Joseph, who is on vacation, told the Guyana Chronicle that the police are seeking assistance from public-spirited citizens who would have witnessed and recorded what may have transpired on Sunday evening when the pedestrian was struck and when the vehicle was torched. Investigations have revealed that the driver of motor car PMM 3080 was motoring eastward along the Letter Kenny Public Road when another vehicle ahead suddenly turned right into a cross street without that driver indicating his intention. In an effort to avoid a collision, the motorist behind swerved to the right, and into the path of the unfortunate Reena Singh, who had seconds before disembarked from a minibus. The consequence resulted in angry residents protesting the
outcome, and allegedly torching the car after they learned that the teenager had died. Subsequent intervention of the police resulted in the protest being quelled, but anger and frustration were at their peak, as residents recalled the deaths of teenage girls Tabitha La Toya Bagot and Malika Waneta Bagot, and their three-year-old niece Shamaine, only a few months ago. On June 4, 2014, at 18:30hrs, motorist Nekash Persaud allegedly drove his vehicle under the influence of alcohol and hit Delroy Park who was cycling along the Kilmarnock Village. Failing to stop and render assistance, the motorist instead accelerated his vehicle, slamming into the three girls and resulting in them being flung in various directions. And as if that were not enough, the motorist, who told investigators that he thought he had hit donkeys, continued his journey to Number 35 Village, Corentyne, where he hit another cyclist, Matthew Mc Bean. Residents of Letter Kenny have said that stiffer laws need to be implemented with respect to the offence of causing
death by dangerous driving. They opine that a vehicular manslaughter charge should be implemented by which suspects should remain incarcerated until determination of their matters. A resident who spoke under condition of anonymity said, “Look at the other accident at Number 19 Village in October 2010, twelve people died. The driver was granted bail and continues driving as though nothing happened. Justice was never served. Bread winners died, life changed for the relatives, but for that driver (name supplied) life goes on…. “This forces people to take matters into their own hands …the legal system is a waste of time.” This newspaper was reliably informed that the gun found in the car that was involved in last Sunday’s accident was not a genuine weapon, but was a toy gun. The identification cards were not fake, but belonged to the driver, the owner of the car and another relative; while the hat which was described as a toque was a Taquyah [skull cap] a male Muslim headwear. The driver of PMM 3080 remains in police custody as police investigations continue into the incident.

Tackling the garbage issue ...
Gov’t rolls out comprehensive plan
AS PART of the sustainability plan for “Clean-Up My Country” programme, the Government of Guyana through the Ministry of Local Government and Regional Development is tackling the issues of solid waste from a holistic approach where several measures are in place to strengthen the capacity of the six municipalities across Guyana with the aim of each being more proactive in managing the regional solid waste programme. Minister Norman Whittaker, in a recently held press conference, stated that to tackle the crises of illegal dumping of garbage which is having a direct negative effect on the environment, the ministry will strengthen the capacity of the municipalities to make them more efficient in the collection of garbage by procuring machinery and solid waste receptacles. While the Georgetown cleanup focus is on community enhancement, improving drainage network and minimising the health risks due to untidy environment, the regional aspect will be focused more on procurement of machinery which will help the NDCs in maintaining a clean environment. Under the “Clean-Up My Country” programme, all Regional Democratic Councils (RDCs) will be in possession of machinery to collect and transport garbage to their local landfill sites. Tractor and trailers are being procured and will be handed over to the NDCs which will help support the councils with transporting of garbage from public spaces and mini excavators will be distributed to some of the RDCs where intensive drainage programmes needs to be undertaken. To improve the level of efficiency during transporting of solid waste, access roads to landfill sites will be repaired and constructed where necessary. For commercialised waste, 130 skip metal bins will be
procured and placed in highly commercialised areas and markets within Georgetown and at the most at risk locations within the NDCs. For the storing of domestic solid waste in Georgetown and across the regions, 45 gallon metal bins will be procured and distributed to residents within communities where households are in need of bins to retain the garbage. Simultaneously, with the community clean up exercise, residents will have the opportunity to get rid of bulky waste since the Ministry is in the process of implementing a pickup schedule within communities. To address the issue of the spread of vector-borne diseases in light of the chikungunya virus, each Regional Democratic Office will receive a fogging machine which will be used to control the mosquito population. Last week, Region
3 administration received its fogging machine. While the Government of Guyana is providing the necessary support mechanism of instruments to the local authorities, it is expected that this support infrastructure will be utilised for the sustenance of the end product of the “Clean-Up My Country” programme, hence there should be no excuse why the country is not kept clean and the environment healthy for persons to dwell in. For the Georgetown Municipality, non-functioning garbage collecting machinery of the Mayor and City Council will be repaired and used for maintenance of the Georgetown programme. Last week, the Ministry was given approval from the National Tender Board to repair the council’s machinery. Minister Whittaker also stated assets procured under the “Clean-Up My Country” programme will be housed at the RDCs but used primarily by the NDCs for community disposal of garbage and development under the Garbage Cleaning/Removal aspect of the programme. “Clean-up My Country” is a $1B programme which has been approved by the Government of Guyana to improve the aesthetic and sanitation of the country. This programme is divided into two aspects: the Georgetown cleanup and the Regional cleanup. In Georgetown, $500M was allocated for the improvement of the aesthetics and health Dr. Nadia Coleman receives fogging machine on behalf of RDC Region 3 from Minister of the environment of the Norman Whittaker capital city.

Rohee calls for international help in containing Ebola Virus - ‘Ebola is real’ he said
By Telesha Ramnarine GENERAL Secretary of the People’s Progressive Party (PPP), Clement Rohee yesterday said the spread of the deadly Ebola Disease is real, and that all efforts must be made by the international community to contain and possibly eliminate this threat to the human race. Speaking at the Party’s weekly press briefing at Freedom House, he said the PPP has noted with alarm the spread of the disease, and its threat to wiping out countless numbers of people, especially on the African continent. “In this regard,” he told reporters, “we welcome the extension of help by the Cuban Government to fight this scourge. The PPP is convinced that, like the HIV virus, this disease can be controlled, provided the right amount of financial and other resources are made available in a timely manner by the relevant bodies. The PPP is confident that given the will and commitment by the industrialised states, the resources can be found.” The Party is also calling on the powers-that-be to immediately make the requisite resources available to combat this dreaded disease.
“The PPP takes this opportunity to renew the call by former president, Dr. Cheddi Jagan, for the introduction of a New Global Human Order in which people are placed ahead of profits,” he said, adding: “It is this drive for profits by the military industrial complex that is responsible for so much tension and conflicts in the world. The resources that are spent on war if diverted to human development could go a far way in terms of the reduction and eventual elimination of poverty and want in the world at large.” He continued that it is a collective shame on humanity that so many millions of people die each year for want of food and water, not to mention the millions of children who are unable to go to school due to extreme poverty. Something must be fundamentally and structurally wrong, he said, when nearly a third of the global population is forced to live on US$1 each day. The income gap between the rich and the poor is getting wider with each passing day, he observed, despite the advances in science and technology. The party calls on the relevant international agencies to put in place the necessary mechanisms to give effect
PPP welcomes donor community’s committment to strengthening GECOM - sees it as essential to readying Commission ‘for mammoth task ahead’
By Telesha Ramnarine THE announcement by Cabinet Secretary, Dr. Roger Luncheon that the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM) will be further strengthened with the critical support of members of the donor community is welcomed by the People’s Progressive Party (PPP). This is according to Party General Secretary, Clement Rohee yesterday while addressing the weekly press briefing at Freedom House, Robb Street, Georgetown. Besides noting that the Party views the donor community’s intervention as a most positive development which emerged out of discussions between the Government of Guyana and the electoral body, Rohee said the PPP is pleased that GECOM will now be able to request support from the European Union, the United Nations, the United States Agency for
International Development (USAID), the United Kingdom, Canada, etc. The Party also sees the support as essential and necessary in readying the Commission for the mammoth task ahead as it organises for both Local Government and General and Regional Elections. “We believe that, given our recent findings and the concerns raised, the Commission is in need of all the help it can acquire to execute its constitutional mandate effectively and independently,” Rohee said, adding: “The Party will continue to lobby the Commission to address the recurring deficiencies on the Preliminary List of Electors with the aim of helping GECOM see the shortcomings wherever they exist and to have them fixed.” “The Party’s concerns that have been submitted to GECOM,” he said, “were
born out of extensive and intensive field checks on the NRR during the registration exercises and our house to house work and the PLE of 2014.” He noted that the Party will neither be deterred nor distracted by those who are pursuing agendas other than that of ensuring that all eligible citizens be enfranchised. “The Party has noted that the level of urgency and consciousness of GECOM Secretariat and its field staff have skyrocketed and renewed efforts are being made to ensure that all is well with certain aspects of the list. “This is a positive development which will only result in a truly made perfect list which does not currently exist. The PPP’s resolve is strong and its focus will continue to be placed on putting systems in place to reduce and detect skullduggery and electoral rigging,” said Rohee.
to the new global human order which was adopted by the United Nations. “The need to end the gap between the rich and the poor, and the digital divide is an imperative that cannot be further delayed. Indeed, there is no reason in today’s highly sophisticated technologically advanced world for any information in communication gap between rich and poor countries. “We live today in what is considered the information age and it is not only desirable but absolutely necessary for everyone especially in the developing world to be able to obtain and process information and knowledge failing which they run the risk of being pushed further into the back water of individual and national development,” Rohee said. The Party is calling on the industrialised countries to take “concrete and measurable” steps to allow for technological transfer and a more equitable and just information and communication order. “In this regard, the Party commends the current PPP/C administration for having the vision to implement the ‘One Laptop per Family’ programme targeting, in particular, the poor and vulnerable which is aimed at the local level in bridging the digital divide,” Rohee said.
Rohee says...
Mariott very critical to Guyana …will offer tremendous amount of jobs
By Telesha Ramnarine GENERAL Secretary of the People’s Progressive Party (PPP), Clement Rohee yesterday reiterated the need for the Marriott Hotel in Guyana to decide how it will offer employment to a considerable number of Guyanese. Rohee was speaking at the Party’s weekly press conference at its headquarters, Freedom House, Robb Street, Georgetown. “Marriott is very critical to Guyana, because it will offer a tremendous amount of jobs,” he said, adding that it will also contribute positively to tourism in the country. “Development has to be all-embracing,” Rohee said. “If you look at other countries in the Caribbean, you will see that their developmental process has not been of the type like Guyana. Guyana’s developmental process has been multifaceted; agricultural, industrial, human, services sector.” The hotel industry falls within the ambit of the Services Sector, which Rohee observed is a growing sector within the global economy. “The Services Sector is actually the largest sector in the global economy and Guyana has to be a player in that respect,” he said. “So we have to look at the Marriott Hotel in the context of the services sector and Guyana’s desire to play a meaningful role in that sector.” At a previous press briefing, the PPP made it clear that the Marriott Hotel will not be “a white elephant”. He maintained that the PPP has never discriminated between any form of investment in Guyana, and it will not do so in the future. The principal investors in the Atlantic Hotel Incorporated (AHI) Marriott Hotel Guyana project and Entertainment Complex) are the National Industrial and Commercial Investment Limited (NICIL) and the British Virgin Islands-registered ACE Square Investments Ltd. Head of the Presidential Secretariat, Dr. Roger Luncheon had said the Marriott Hotel is likely to be the “benchmark of excellence” in the hotel industry. The hotel, expected to provide ‘world-class accommodation and services’, will boast 197 rooms, with a large ballroom, a conference centre, a 14,000 square foot casino, a 6,400 square foot night club, and an 8,300 square foot restaurant. Guyana now represents the 72nd country in the world with the hotel brand. It also represents 3,600 hotels in the world, with 23 brands, and employs some 129,000 associates.

CARICOM strengthens Chikungunya, Ebola response
(CARICOM Secretariat, Turkeyen) The Caribbean Community (CARICOM) is formalising recommendations to deal with any possible incidence of the Ebola virus and is ramping up efforts to respond to the Chikungunya epidemic. On Friday Chief Medical Officers and other technical health experts from CARICOM Member States met via video conference to rationalise the Region’s response to the two diseases. This meeting was convened by the CARICOM Secretariat in collaboration with the Caribbean Public Health Agency (CARPHA). Among draft proposals
that were fleshed out at the meeting was the achievement of the core competencies cited in WHO's International Health Regulations. Discussions additionally focused on the need to urge a calm but prudent response when applying the World Health Organisation's (WHO) recommendation with regard to the Ebola virus - no restrictions on travel and trade in areas where the Ebola transmission has occurred. The urgent need to put in place isolation facilities and resources to permit barrier management of suspected or affected cases of Ebola was also ventilated at the meeting. Meanwhile, Director of the Pan American Health
Organisation (PAHO), Dr Carissa Etienne on Thursday assured that there was a very low death rate from Chikungunya, despite the significant illness and disability it causes. Dr Etienne visited the CARICOM Secretariat for a courtesy call on the CARICOM Secretary-General, Ambassador Irwin LaRocque, and met with officials of the Directorate of Human and Social Development to discuss the Region’s response to the current disease alerts. Dr Etienne said that Chikungunya has had a significant effect on productivity and the social and economic life of affected communities, and it was therefore critical to concentrate response efforts
on vector reduction. “It is a household mosquito (A. aegypti) and all householders must become active in reducing the breeding sites inside and outside of their homes … garbage disposal, drainage of water, emptying of containers… We also have to ask people to
sleep under bed nets - so that they don’t get bitten, particularly an infected person… the treatment is mini-supportive, we give Tylenol, Paracetamol, Acetaminophen, and ensure fluid intake,” Dr Etienne stated. She said multi-sectoral action was needed to ensure
access to water, to avoid storage which encourages mosquito breeding. Adequate garbage disposal and activating communities to take better care of themselves at the community and individual levels were Please turn to page 14

Rohee: Felix up to his usual mischief … as he accuses the PPP of attacking Chief Elections Officer
By Telesha Ramnarine A PARTNERSHIP for National Unity’s (APNU) Shadow Minister of Home Affairs Winston Felix is “up to his usual
mischief” in accusing the People’s Progressive Party (PPP) of attacking Chief Elections Officer, Keith Lowenfield. In fact, Felix is trying to pitch the PPP against
Lowenfield, PPP General Secretary, Clement Rohee said yesterday at the party’s weekly news conference at Freedom House in Georgetown. Felix recently accused
the PPP of attacking Lowenfield by raising repeated concerns about the voters list and the management of the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM). “Mr. Felix is the man who was responsible for the death of so many policemen under his watch. He was responsible for so many things that took place under his watch and what kind of moral authority does Mr. Felix
have to come out and make a statement of this nature? He is up to his usual mischief,” Rohee remarked. He said the PPP welcomes Lowenfield’s assumption to office and has no interest in attacking anyone personally at GECOM. “We attack issues, not personalities. Our position is very clear and very principled. If we have a problem with any aspect
of the elections preparations, list or otherwise, we would make our views known publicly. We will send our views written to GECOM. “We have nothing to hide. We are not doing anything surreptitiously. We have no interest in rigging elections. We have fought against all those things and therefore our position is a principled one,” Rohee remarked.

Kaieteur News being used as a weapon against me … says GRA Commissioner General Kurshid Sattaur
THE Kaieteur News is being used as a weapon to prevent the Commissioner General from preforming his statutory duties and functions which include investigating the envasion of taxes and ensuring that persons pay their rightful amount of taxes to enable the state to deliver goods and services to the people of Guyana. This is according to the Kurshid Sattaur, Commissioner General of the Guyana Revenue Authority (GRA), who, in a telephone interview with the Guyana Chronicle, highlighted his frustration with what he describes as libellous and vitriolic information that the Kaieteur News in spewing about his character because he is investigating “without bias or prejudice” the publisher of Kaieteur News, Mr. Glenn Lall, on two separate instances of tax evasions. Something which he alluded, may have caused much embarrassment to Lall when it was uncovered by the Guyana Chronicle. Ever since those revelations, Sattaur said that Lall has been using his paper to malign his character under the guise of his satirical column “Dem boys seh.” According to Sattaur, Lall’s most recent escapade in “Dem boys seh” which “disrespectfully” refers to him as “Cow Shit,” libels his name and reputation, saying he was arrested in Trin-

idad, “a complete and absolute fabrication,” said Mr. Sattaur. He highlighted that such unwarranted attacks were hurled at him on previous occasions. The GRA head however exclaimed that he will not be subjected to such slander and disrepute any longer, since he will be taking the matter to the court for redress, since the attacks on him are: “Unwarranted and unlawful, intended to prevent me from executing my mandate. This character assassination which the Kaieteur News, under the direct guidance of its publisher Glenn Lall, has inflicted on me, has to stop.” The Commissioner General calls upon the Government to protect him, “So that I can continue my work without being harassed, or in fear … I have my work to do and if I don’t do it fairly I will be accused of having double standards.” He said further he “intends to go full out with the law in dealing with these kinds of opposing forces; very soon you will be seeing references being made to charges of the perpetrators carrying offences of intimidating me.” Sattaur bemoaned the “double standards” which he said Kaieteur News seems to be exhibiting. “I find it strange that this newspaper, which is attacking me, that preaches about accountability and fighting corruption, is now engaging in the very conduct contrary to its claims.” He outlined that it is appalling that there is no word from the human rights and labour organisations speaking out or championing the cause of a public officer who is being oppressed, attacked and victimised for doing his duties without fear or favour. Nevertheless, Sattaur said that he has to remain resolute since the Guyanese people are looking to see what he will be doing in this matter. “Kaieteur News will not be a deterrent to me fulfilling my duties and obligations as the Commissioner General of the GRA, a position I have served for over ten years without fear or prejudice.” “I am happy that this is a test case, just to show that I am not a weak person, I am a strong character and will not be
intimidated by persons who feel that they are above the law,” said Sattaur. In recent times, the GRA has been conducting two major investigations, one involving two Toyota Lexus SUV luxury vehicles that have been impounded because it is alleged that Glenn Lall and his wife, who were in possession of the vehicles, benefited illegally by evading over $100M in taxes by allegedly allowing his remigrant family friends to import the
vehicles, thereby benefiting from the duty free concessions entitled to them as remigrants. The second investigation related to the importation of printing ink packaged as a CARICOM (Caribbean Community) product enjoying duty free concessions under the revised treaty of Chaguramas; however, under closer inspection, it was allegedly found that the origin of the inks were from overseas, thereby in breach of the treaty.

‘The Mission Goes On!’
…on International Day For The Preservation of the Ozone Layer
More than two decades ago the world was rudely awakened to the discovery of the great hole over the Antarctica caused by chloroflourobcarbons (CFCs). Even more surprising was that these “CFCs” were found in our hairsprays, and our refrigerators and our pesticides. However September 16, 1987 marked the achievement of one of the most momentous agreements in the struggle against Climate Change. The Montreal Protocol on Substances that deplete the Ozone Layer was finally agreed upon at the Headquarters of the International Civil Aviation Organisation in Montreal. Guyana is within the List of Parties in this agreement. The protocol was designed to reduce the production and utilisation of ozone depleting substances (ODS) in order to protect the earth’s fragile ozone layer. The protocol came into force on January 1, 1989, but the International Day for the Preservation of the Ozone Layer is celebrated annually on September 16. This year’s theme is “Ozone Layer Protection: The Mission Goes On.” Dubbed “The world’s most successful environmental agreement,” the Montreal Protocol sparked a frenzy in phasing out and the reduction of producing ozone-harmful substances.

other critical responses the PAHO Director proposed. With regard to Ebola, Dr Etienne noted that PAHO has observed outbreaks in Liberia, Guinea-Bissau, Sierra Leone, and three other African countries, Nigeria, Democratic Republic of Congo and Sengal, which have reported cases, but have contained the disease. “At this stage, the current Ebola outbreak has been upgraded to a United Nations Humanitarian Crisis which activates all of the UN to react to the crisis. It is being viewed not only as a health problem; it is generating food security and human security issues,” Dr Etienne informed. She said PAHO convenes regular meetings with its focal points that deal with international health regulations and disease control, and has collaborated with the WHO in providing guidelines to all countries. “We are working assiduously in those countries that are affected…At this stage, the objective in the Americas is to set up high surveillance to detect the first case early. We suspect that the first case will come either by airport or sea port…”, so setting up the possibilities there to identify and isolate the first case was important,” Dr Etienne said. She said that part of the response is to follow up on suspected cases up to 21 days, as the incubation for Ebola is 2-21 days. “Having done that, we need to develop isolation areas where they can be treated. We have to train individuals to deliver the treatment without putting themselves at risk. We also need to stockpile personal protective equipment and gear,” Dr Etienne informed.

He further stated that, “community policing is not only respected for the work it has done across this country, but the leadership and initiative set out by the Honourable Minister.” Meanwhile, Minister Rohee thanked the CPGs for the opportunity and for having confidence in his leadership. The minister on behalf of the Government also thanked the policing community for supporting the policies of the Government in respect of public order, safety and security throughout the length and breadth of Guyana. “Community Policing Organisation stands out as an organisation that has made its contribution, and in this respect I want to take this opportunity as you congratulate me, for me in turn to congratulate you for

This mandate was subsequently expanded to include youth development, health consciousness, road safety, environmental enhancement, and other community-related activities.

Amerindian heritag extravaganza at Kar
By Derwayne Wills
“THEN there was the bad weather” - novelist Ernest Hemingway could never have been more accurate when he referenced this line in his acclaimed “A Moveable Feast”. Similarly that line could be applied to the events of this year’s Amerindian heritage village celebrations on Saturday at Karrau in Region 7 (Cuyuni-Mazaruni). When the rains rolled through, the ceremonial welcome of President Donald Ramotar and other notable officials had already gotten underway, the cultural presentation had commenced and the overplayed “Matapee song” seemed to be the anthem of the day. While some sections of the crowd sought to escape the rains, rest assured that like moths to a flame they returned to revel in the explosion of Amerindian culture. As one resident put it, there wasn’t a great focus on culture in the village, but with the identification of Karrau as the Amerinidian Heritage Village; things were shaping up pretty well for a people who needed a gentle reminder for pride’s sake. The Guyana Chronicle was on the scene to capture the extravaganza from President Ramotar’s arrival to the all-night band of musicians with songs that moved across genres and languages.

‘Sooba is not my type so she can’t know if I’m tired’
– Mayor Green says in response to her call for him to ‘bow out’ as he has outlived his usefulness
By Ravin Singh MAYOR of Georgetown Hamilton Green, who is
Mayor of Georgetown, Hamilton Green
almost 80 years old, has issued a public declaration that acting Town Clerk Carol Sooba is not his type, and as such she is not capable of knowing if he is tired or not. The Mayor’s revelation came against a backdrop of the acting Town Clerk accusing him of “being too tired” and requested him to “gracefully bow-out” as Mayor of Georgetown since he has outlived his usefulness. According to Sooba, the Mayor has been lagging behind in addressing the concerns of the citizens and this has contributed to a further deterioration of Georgetown. At last week Monday’s statutory meeting, the Mayor had only addressed one agenda presented before the Council while another seven were ignored. This, Sooba
contended, was a slap in the face of the citizens since their work is once again put on hold. As such, Sooba made her call for the Mayor to “gracefully bow-out” as Mayor of Georgetown since, in her estimation, he seems “too tired” to function in this capacity. D e p u t y M a y o r, P atricia Chase-Green also responded to this accusation of the Mayor being too tired, saying that the Council has the confidence in the Mayor and that he has efficiently and effectively been performing in this capacity.

Colwyn Harding rushed to hospital after intestine collapses COLWYN Harding, who was sodomised with a police baton by a police constable in 2013, was yesterday rushed to the Georgetown Public Hospital Cooperation (GPHC)
Speaking with this publication late last evening, his mother, Sharon, indicated that the intestine collapsed causing the young man to bleed a lot and resulted in grave discomfort.
Tuesday, September 16, 2014 - 11hrs to 12:30hrs
She said that a decision was immediately taken to rush him to the Georgetown Public Hospital, but he was removed from that institution after doctors there attempted to perform an operation without properly informing her of what the nature of the operation would be. The woman said that as soon as the young man was taken into the facility two doctors rushed to them and indicated that they needed to take him into surgery since they had a body part to replace and she became very upset and suspicious. The woman then moved her son to a private hospital where he was seen by a doctor. The family was also advised that at no point should the relatives allow the doctors at the GPHC to administer any medication to the young man or perform any operation on him. Since the relatives of Harding were unable to raise $3.7M to perform corrective surgery on him, the young man has been going through much pains. However by late yesterday, the young man was able to have medical attention at a private hospital and was sent home.
Aries Your fantasy world is piqued today. Your imagination is running wild. Maintain a certain amount of control over your emotions or they may get the better of you. You could find yourself in a cloud of confusion by afternoon. Avoid this by making an effort to ground yourself throughout the day. Make sure your actions result from an equal balance between thought and emotion. Taurus You may get the feeling that you’re operating in an emotional crossfire today. On the one hand, you may have a “me first,” selfish feeling that demands attention from others. You may also sense the need to work to serve others and bring like-minded people together. Realise that both of these energies are valid and deserve your attention. Balance is the key. Work to soothe your fluctuating emotions. Gemini You’ll enjoy a day of high spirits and friendly interactions. The energy of the day is in your favour, although it may not seem like it. Your emotions may become cloudy and it might seem like people are working against you. Although this may be true to some extent, realise that much of this paranoia comes more from your emotional insecurity than another’s plot against you.
Cancer Ask for help if you need it. Your nature is to serve others, but in order to maintain that energy, make sure that you’re taken care of as well. Offer extra hugs to the people you love. In work-related issues, make sure that you aren’t biting off more than you can chew. Delegate tasks to others. Pamper yourself tonight with a hot bath and a good meal. Leo Keeping your emotions in balance is going to be the key to a successful day. Don’t get swept away by a fanciful situation that could send your mind spinning. Maintain control at all times. This might be easier said than done. Give yourself a break and avoid excess alcohol or any sort of drug use. It will be hard enough to keep your mind clear without them. Virgo You may feel like you’re running into a brick wall at every turn, especially when it comes to emotions. The intensity of the day may have you feeling like you’re in a pressure cooker. Try not to blow things out of proportion. Realise that much of the drama is more a figment of your imagination than reality. Clear away the clouds and get to the heart of the matter.
Libra Bask in the sunshine of today. Focus on the positive aspects of your life and work to expand these energies. There’s a great deal of opportunity open at this time. The key to taking advantage of this is to stay close to the things that truly bring you the most happiness. The details will work themselves out with almost no effort. Have faith that you’ll succeed and you will. Scorpio Make sure you’re getting enough sleep. You may seem groggy and your head could be a bit cloudy today, but try not to let this stop you from getting your work done. Much of what you perceive may not exactly correlate with reality. Your emotions could be especially distorted. You may have a strong desire to escape into a fantasy world. Try to keep both feet on the ground
Sagittarius There may be an area of your life that seems completely fanciful now. The issues regarding it have become a bit hazy. You may no longer be sure of the reality of the situation. Today’s energies will bring these issues into focus. Your emotions are especially heightened, and they, too, will seem a bit clouded. Try to stay balanced and gain a new perspective on the situation. Capricorn Your fantasy life is especially active today, so enjoy this little break into your dream world. Coming back to reality may be difficult. Keep tabs on your emotions so they don’t get the better of you. The impressions you receive from the outside world may not be accurate today. Keep your wits about you and try not to get caught up in drugs and alcohol. Aquarius You’re in a fun-loving and jovial mood today, and you should make time to enjoy it with friends. The one caveat to the day is that your emotions may be a bit clouded. You may not have the most accurate impression of a situation. You might feel that people have the wrong impression of who you are. Try not to feel insecure. Have confidence in yourself and take the lead. Pisces You may have a strange paranoia that people are out to get you today, but don’t let this feeling paralyse you. Your emotions are more than likely getting the better of you. The reality of the situation is much different than your sensitive emotions perceive. Avoid the tendency to escape even further into this fantasy world. Stay away from drugs or alcohol.

Pacquiao fight, ‘let’s make it happen’ says Mayweather By Steve Keating\ LAS VEGAS, USA (Reuters) - It took just minutes after Floyd Mayweather Jr had scored a dominant win over Argentine Marcos Maidana on Saturday night before the undefeated welterweight champion faced the inevitable question. Will Manny Pacquiao be his next opponent? Still in the ring, still covered in sweat, Mayweather had barely time to catch his breath following a bruising 12-round battle with the hard-hitting Argentine when he was asked about the fight that has fascinated and obsessed the boxing world. Mayweather ’s unanimous decision over Maidana that improved his perfect record to 47-0 immediately renewed speculation about a longawaited super-fight between the 37-year-old American and the Filipino great. “I got to go back and talk to my team, I’m not ducking or dodging no opponent,” Mayweather said from the ring. “If a Pacquiao fight presents itself, let’s make it happen.” A duel between the defence-minded Mayweather and the aggressive Pacquiao, the biggest drawcards of their generation, has long been savoured by boxing fans, if only to decide the mythical title of the world’s best pound-for-pound fighter.

(REUTERS/Mark Hundley) after successive defeats to American Timothy Bradley and Mexican Juan Manuel Marquez in 2012, prompting talk of his possible retirement, though he has since bounced back with two impressive wins. Five-division world champion Mayweather had been expected to meet Pacquiao in 2010 until negotiations collapsed over the American’s demand for random drug testing methods by often questioning how Pacquiao could have won world titles in an unprecedented eight weight classes. “I don’t think about
Pacquiao, I don’t even know him. I wish him the best but that’s not my focus,” said Mayweather. My focus is Floyd Mayweather that is how I got to where I got to. “I try not to focus on anyone else’s business. “If it happens it happens. You guys can keep asking the same questions over-andover and I will give you the same answers. “That’s not my focus. “My business model is I am my own boss. I call my own shots.” Mayweather announced last week that he will retire in 2015 when his Showtime contract ends in two more
fights. His next fight is expected to come in May but Mayweather said no date has been set and would consider a number of opponents, including Pacquiao. “We don’t know what the future holds for Floyd Mayweather,” said the champion. “What’s realistic is I am 47-0. “As of right now I want to enjoy my time off. We don’t know who we going to be fighting. “We’re not in a rush. We take our time that’s how we got to where we got to. We’re not sure what the game plan is.

Chanderpaul, Blackwood... From back page He batted 161 minutes, faced 100 balls and struck two fours and a six, extending the eighth-wicket stand with Shafiul Islam (10) to 45. It was pacer Shannon Gabriel who got the breakthrough in the third over of his first spell of the morning, finding Shafiul’s edge through to wicketkeeper Denesh Ramdin at 134 for eight. After the drinks break, Mahmudullah clubbed Gabriel over the ropes at mid-wicket and then raised his half-century but banging a full toss from the same bowler to the long on boundary. However, he was gone two balls later in the next over when he edged a cut at Benn behind and Robiul Islam followed soon afterward, lbw without scoring to the lanky Barbadian. With the Windies opting not to enforce the followon, Brathwaite and Johnson gave them another cautious start, putting on a sedate 76 to set the foundation for an intimidating target. On 12 without loss at lunch, West Indies pushed on, with the left-handed Johnson striking eight fours in an innings lasting 59 balls and 77 and Brathwaite counting three fours and a six, off 112 balls in 139 minutes at the crease. Johnson looked at ease but was bowled 40 minutes before tea, coming down the wicket and playing over a full-length delivery from left-arm spinner Taijul Islam. Kirk Edwards’ miserable form continued when he fell cheaply, for two, after spending eight balls at the crease. He was given out lbw before he had scored to the third ball he faced, but reviewed the decision and replays showed he had gotten an inside edge. However, the righthander failed to capitalise on the good fortune and was eventually caught at gully by Shamsur Rahman, fending off one from seamer Shafiul Islam which bounced awkwardly. On 90 for two at tea, West Indies suffered two major setbacks almost immediately afterwards. Bravo, unusually watchful, lofted the first ball of the fourth over after the resumption over long-on for four but was then bowled the very next ball, attempting to pull but getting an edge onto his body and then onto the stumps. Two overs later, Brathwaite prodded forward to one from
Mahmudullah which drifted, took the edge and found the save hands of Shamsur at slip. With the Windies wobbling, Chanderpaul and Blackwood rallied the innings. The veteran left-hander punched Mahmudullah off the back foot through extra cover for four and also drove a stray full toss from Taijul to the long off boundary, to find his stride. Not to be left out, Blackwood discarded his guarded approach to smash Mahmudullah for a straight six, a stroke that put the Windies on the brink of the 350-run lead.

World basketball champions USA celebrate with their trophy.
U.S. rout Serbia to win basketball World Cup By Iain Rogers MADRID, Spain (Reuters) - The United States retained their basketball World Cup title after overcoming an early deficit to beat the tournament’s surprise package Serbia
129-92 in a one-sided final on Sunday. An athletic U.S. team, missing top NBA players such as LeBron James and Kevin Durant, finished the tournament in grand style after their captain James Harden inspired an
effervescent performance in Madrid’s City Arena. With his team trailing 15-7 early on, Harden instigated a 15-0 run and the Americans never looked back as they romped to a 35-21 lead at the end of the first quarter.
Centre DeMarcus Cousins dominated the boards at both ends as the U.S. nailed 11 of 16 three-pointers in the first half to take a 67-41 lead into the locker room on the back of 18 points from playmaker Kyrie Irving. Serbia, who reached the
final with three upset wins in the knockout stages, fought hard to keep the score respectable in the second half but had no reply for either lethal long-range shooting or superior rebounding by the United States. Irving led the
champions with a gamehigh 26 points, Harden added 23 while six of their team mates finished with double-scoring digits. Forwards Nemanja Bjelica and Nikola Kalinic stood out for Serbia with 18 points each.
Manchester United feed off Daley bread as feel good factor returns By Ed Osmond
LONDON, England (Reuters) - As Manchester United fans delighted in an exuberant attacking display against Queens Park Rangers (QPR) inspired by Angel Di Maria, they would have been equally happy to watch an outstanding debut performance by Daley Blind. The versatile Dutchman played a disciplined midfield holding role, protecting his defenders and seamlessly controlling possession with clever movement and a stream of accurate short passes. Blind’s industry and calming influence provided a solid platform from which to unleash the flair of Di Maria, Juan Mata and Wayne Rooney as United powered to an emphatic 4-0 win in the autumn sunshine at Old
Trafford. “He is a player who can see situations in advance,” United manager Louis van Gaal told Manchester United television. “He can always pass to the free player and when he doesn’t have the ball, he knows when he has to press the opponent. That’s a very good ability to have. “I like him as a defensive midfielder, but he can also play in central defence or at left full back. He can run for 90 minutes too and is always fit. That’s another very good quality for a player.” QPR were, admittedly, weak opposition and far tougher tests lie ahead but van Gaal was a happy man after overseeing his team’s first win of the season. “When you have a result of 4-0, then you can be happy as a coach, but you always have points you can improve,” he told reporters. “We have always to analyse what we have done.
The result is fantastic but we can get much better. “I said ‘let’s make a new start today’.” It certainly felt like a new start after months of misery for United who enjoyed a trophy-laden 20-year spell under Alex Ferguson’s management before last season’s dismal seventh-place finish with David Moyes at the helm. Di Maria opened the scoring with a free kick from out wide, Rooney teed up Ander Herrera for his first United goal and the England forward’s crisp shot put United 3-0 up at halftime. Mata added a fourth before Old Trafford rose to acclaim the introduction of substitute Radamel Falcao for another muchanticipated debut. The Colombian striker showed his predatory instincts when he latched on to a rebound after Blind’s powerful shot was

(Credit: Reuters/Andrew Yates) parried by Rob Green but his effort was well saved by the goalkeeper. “My teams are always focused on attack, but it is not our focus - that is to be in the first three,” van Gaal said. “The most important
thing is the trajectory.” After the misery of Moyes’ reign, United fans will relish their manager’s confidence. The victory over QPR lifted United into the top half of the table after four matches and the next two
games are away to Leicester City and home to West Ham United. If van Gaal can maintain his team’s upward trajectory, they will be in good shape for the much harder challenges that lie ahead.

PMCC and West Berbice chalk up impressive first-round victories
… Bermine draw bye into semis By Calvin Roberts IN SWELTERING heat and on a heavy outfield Port Mourant Cricket Club (PMCC) made light work over their hosts Blairmont Cricket Club to come away with a 53 run victory in their Berbice Cricket Board/Berbice River Bridge Company-sponsored first division 50-overs knockout competition on Sunday. Also recording an openinground victory were West Berbice who humiliated tournament debutants by 207 runs, thanks to Quacy McPherson’s ton and a mean spell of fast bowling from national fast bowler Raun Johnson. At Blairmont, the visiting PMCC won the toss and chose to bat first on an under-prepared track due to the unavailability of ground staff at the venue, which resulted in the match starting late and being reduced to 45 overs-a-side. Thanks to an 80-run thirdwicket partnership between Lloydel Lewis 62 (2x4, 2x6) and skipper Devendra Thakurdeen 33 (2x4), PMCC rallied from 16 for 2 to 96 for 2 before being bowled out for 161 which was scored off 39.1 overs. Waqar Hassan engineered the visitors’ batting collapse, by claiming 5 for 21, backed
by Kevon Jahawir’s 2 for 46 while bowling for Blairmont, who in reply were bowled out for 108 off 36.2 overs, as only Deryck Prashad 42 (5x4) and Avishkar Sewkarran 22 offered resistance to the bowling of Amir Khan (3 for 10), Thakurdeen (3 for 14) and Dimitri Cameron who bowled with aggression to take 2 for 23. At the D’Edward ground, the home team had an introduction to first division cricket in the Ancient County at the hands of West Berbice and one they would wish to forget very quickly, having dominated at the second division level for a number of years. Winning the toss and opting to field first, D’Edward saw McPherson striking 11 fours and six sixes in his 105, which was ably supported by Andrew Dutchin’s 58 (3x4, 3x6), as the duo added in excess of 100 runs for the second wicket, after Arthley Bailey was dismissed off the first ball without scoring. Kenje Sedoc chipped in with 24 (2x6, 1x4) for West Berbice, who were bowled out for 267 off 45.3 overs, with Devindra Singh (3 for 41), Christian France (3 for 49), Navindra Rampersaud (2 for 38) and Deryck Lalsa (2 for 43) doing the damage with the ball for D’Edward.
Quacy McPherson In their turn at the wicket, the home team faced a redhot Johnson who bowled with pace and aggression to support Krishendat Ramoo (3 for 11) and Keith Fraser 3 for 16, with his 3 for 25 and they crumbled for 60 for 9 when their innings was declared close. Only Ramesh Boodram 27 (3x6) was the lone batsman to reach double figures, as the experienced Eon Abel did not show up for the contest. At Cumberland, Universal Solutions Bermine on the back of a solid all-round performance from Romario Shepherd-DeJonge, recorded a comfortable four-wicket victory over a game Young Warriors lineup to not only earn a bye in the second round, but land themselves a place in the semifinals as well. Batting first, Young Warriors were bowled out
Lloydel Lewis for 164 from 46.2 overs, with Seon Hetmyer 33 (2x6, 1x4), Ishwar Singh 31 (1x4) and Waheid Edwards 23 leading their batting even as ShepherdDeJonge grabbed 4 for 36 and got support from Steven Latcha (3 for 30) and Niall Smith (2 for 32). In their reply, Universal Solutions Bermine struggled up to 70 for 4 following the departure of Shemroy Barrington for 36 (3x4, 1x6), at which point ShepherdDeJonge came to the wicket and struck five fours and three sixes in his unbeaten 56 which took them to 167 for 6 off 41.2 overs, while Linden Austin (2 for 13) and Vishal Mohabir (2 for 53) bowled well for Young Warriors. At Edinburgh, the home team were arrested and sent packing out of the tournament
Romario De Jonge by a disciplined Police lineup, who came away with a threewicket victory, despite some resistance. Batting first after being asked to do so, Edinburgh were bowled out for 123 in 28.2 overs, as only Joseph Giddings 33 and Jerome Andrews 31 resisted the bowling efforts of Kwesi Mickle (5 for 32), Rocky Hutson (3 for 28) and Carl Campbell (2 for 10). In their turn at the wicket, Police scored 126 for 7 off 20 overs, led by Kurt Griffith’s unbeaten 28, 23 from Ellon Shultz and 22 from Michael Campbell, as Jerome Andrews, Shafeek Khan and Michael Sampson took two wickets each for 20, 22 and 30 runs respectively to restrict the lawmen before their win. At the Skeldon ground, the home team were handed a humiliating nine-wicket defeat
Stag Beer/EBFA Div.1 League – Round. 2
Timehri trounce Herstelling; Diamond win by walkover from Mocha TIMEHRI Panthers blanked Herstelling 4-0 while Diamond United gained full points without breaking a sweat after their opponents, Mocha Champs failed to show up when play in the Stag Beer-sponsored East Bank Football Association (EBFA) divisionone league second-round continued yesterday at the Grove Playfield, East Bank Demerara. Herstelling showed some signs of toughness early on but once Timehri got their scoring form in place, it was just a matter of how wide the margin of defeat would be as the experienced Timehri boys made light work of their less experienced opponents. It did take some time for the opening goal to hit the back of the net, Orin Steele obliging in the 23rd minute - the Herstelling and
goalkeeper Quazim Yussuf failing to stop the effort. Goal number two was converted in the 34th minute when Royston Burgess’ shot got past Yusuf who failed to get down in time to stop the ball. Timehri 2 Herstelling 0. The halftime whistle sounded with the score unchanged. Timehri continued their control of proceedings in the second stanza, netting two more goals while keeping their opponents goalless. Troy Johnson in the 48th minute and Leon Denny in the 60th sealed the win for Timehri and full points which took them ahead of Agricola to third place in the standing while Herstelling dropped below Diamond United to seventh place. More matches will be played this Sunday at the same venue.

at the hands of a purposefullooking Rose Hall Town Gizmos and Gadgets lineup, who saw their hosts win the toss and decide to bat first but they were bowled out for 154 off 31.2 overs. Charles Frank 32, Junior Blair 23, Sherwyn Murray 22 and Parmanand Narine 21 led Skeldon’s batting with Shawn Pereira 4 for 48 and Royston Crandon 2 for 37 did the damage with the ball for RHTGG, who in their turn at the wicket raced to 155 for 1 off 23 overs. Delbert Hicks struck an unbeaten 85 (10x4, 2x6) and Jason Sinclair an even unbeaten half-century that included four fours, as they added 130 from 10 overs following the demise of Crandon (8) at 25 for 1 in the seventh over of their innings. The final first-round match will be contested this Saturday between Guytrac Upper Corentyne and Bush Lot Rising Star at the Number 69 ground, with the winner playing Albion, who drew a bye in the first round, in Sunday’s second-round fixture at Albion.

Champagne to run against FIFA president Blatter By Simon Evans (REUTERS) - Former FIFA official Jerome Champagne formally announced yesterday that he will stand against incumbent Sepp Blatter in next year’s election for president of the world football body. “I have the honour of informing you that I have just written to the FIFA adhoc Electoral Committee and its president, Mr Domenico Scala, to confirm my intention to run for FIFA president,” Champagne said in a letter on his campaign website. The Frenchman, FIFA’s former director of international relations, announced in January that he intended to run for the presidency - the most powerful job in football - but then confused many observers with his comments regarding Blatter. At his launch news conference, Champagne had declared he did not believe he could beat Blatter and that he was undecided about
whether he would even run if his former boss was a candidate. Blatter, 78, announced last week that he would seek a fifth term and, with UEFA president Michel Platini having decided against challenging him, the prospect of the Swiss being unopposed looked likely. Champagne did not mention Blatter by name in his statement but the 56-year-old said it was important to have a debate over the future of the game. “I am happy that the debate about the future of FIFA and football has finally begun with the prospect of various candidates,” he said, adding that he would like all candidates to take part in public and televised debates across the world. “First and foremost, debating about issues is a normal process in an institution based on democratic principles. “Then, this debate is particularly indispensable for football,” he added. “We have to take clear and informed decisions on
Jerome Champagne speaks during a news conference in London last January 20, 2014 whether we want to continue with the current economic polarisation, and the sporting imbalances it brings in its wake, or be willing to rebalance the game in our globalised 21st century.” FIFA’s Deputy Secretary General between 2002 and 2005, Champagne worked on special projects between 2005 and 2007 and was Director of International Relations from 2007 until he left FIFA in 2010 after political infighting cost him his position.
A former diplomat, since 2010 Champagne has worked as an independent international football consultant focusing on resolving issues in Kosovo, Palestine and Israel and Cyprus. In 2012 he issued a 26page 20 000 word document entitled ‘What FIFA for the 21st Century?’ outlying his ideas for reform. He is married with three children, lives in Zurich and supports French club St Etienne.
Lloyd wants Windies players to be loyal KINGSTON, Jamaica - New chairman of the West Indies selection panel, Clive Lloyd, believes loyalty should be the order of the day as players contemplate decisions to either represent the West Indies against England or play in the Indian Premier League (IPL) next April. The West Indies, currently ranked eighth in the International Cricket Council (ICC) Test rankings, are scheduled to face world number three England in a three-match Test series beginning on April 9 and ending May 5, 2015. The matches, however, are set to clash with the ICC-approved IPL, which is held between April and June each year. “What we are saying is that anytime we have our cricket we would like you to be here. You must play in our cricket. And, hope the players take it on board,” said Lloyd. “What we are asking the players to do (ahead of the England series) is to show loyalty, and that West Indies cricket comes first. I know some people may not like
how that sounds, but our cricket has got to be first.” The IPL, arguably the most lucrative cricket domestic tournament in the world, attracts several of the West Indies leading cricketers on a yearly basis. Explosive opener Chris Gayle, mystery spinner Sunil Narine, stylish batsman Marlon Samuels, and influential all-rounder Dwayne Bravo, head the list of players. However, with the West Indies looking to reestablish itself as a world cricket powerhouse, and England offering several ICC Test rankings points, it is anticipated that these players will be asked to largely forego their 2015 IPL ambitions. This is expected to put the players in a spot of bother given that what some players earn via an annual West Indies player contract is sometimes three or more times less than what they would earn playing for their IPL teams. “We can understand the situation (of the players). However, it is not about earning all the money,” said Lloyd. (Jamaica Star)
Former WICB president honoured for service to game GROS ISLET, St Lucia (CMC) – The West Indies Cricket Board last Saturday honoured former president Sir Julian Hunte, for his contribution to the game across the region. Sir Julian, served as president from 2007 to 2013 and also served as a Director of the International Cricket Council.

GCB four-day senior Inter-County … Jacobs to lead GCB bowls off on Thursday Development squad HAVING completed their limited overs version last Saturday, in which Berbice came out on top over their nemesis Demerara, the four-day version of this year’s Guyana Cricket Board (GCB) senior men Inter-County competition is set to bowl off on Thursday with two first-round matches at the Georgetown Cricket Club (GCC) and the Demerara Cricket Club (DCC) grounds. In the first round, 50Over champions Berbice will clash with Demerara at GCC while Essequibo will meet the GCB Development Squad at DCC, with Essequibo and Berbice doing battle at DCC in the second round from September 24 to 27, which will also see the GCB Development Squad come up against Demerara at the Everest Cricket Club ground. The third and final

All matches bowl off at 09:30hrs each day unless stipulated otherwise by the match referee, in the event of rain. Meanwhile, former Guyana and West Indies Under-19 skipper Steven Jacobs has been entrusted with the captaincy of the GCB Development Squad, which competed in the limited overs version of the Inter-county tournament as the National Under-19 unit. While several players, including historic-winning Under-19 skipper Brian Sattaur, first class openers Tagenarine Chanderpaul and Shimron Hetmyer, spin twins Balchand Baldeo and Shiraz Ramcharran have
Umpire Sang Hue hailed as ‘gentle giant’ KINGSTON, Jamaica Remembered as having an immense knowledge about the laws of cricket, as well as being a “gentle giant” of the profession, former West Indies umpire Douglas Sang Hue was immortalised in tribute during a thanksgiving service at St Paul’s Methodist Church, Port Royal last Saturday. “Sang Hue possessed an abundance of knowledge on the rules and laws of the game, so much so that whenever he made a decision, it was respected,” said former president of the Jamaica Cricket Umpire Association (JCUA) Johnny Gayle, who gave the eulogy at the service, which was attended by several regional and national cricket personalities. “His work was so admired that his experiences even led to the change of a number of cricket laws and rules, including batsmen playing on the frontfoot leg-before-wicket rule,” he declared. GAYLE’S TRIBUTE A former West Indies umpire himself, Gayle, a close friend of Sang Hue, was the first of several individuals who paid tribute to Sang Hue, hailing him as one of the best ever umpires
in the game. “He was fair and balanced, irrespective of the team or opposition, and always aimed to deliver justice,” said Fritz Harris, secretary of the JCA, who spoke on behalf of West Indies Cricket Board president Dave Cameron and Jamaica Cricket Association president Billy Heaven, who were both absent. West Indies Cricket Umpires Association president Cecil Fletcher and vice-president Billy Doctrove also hailed Sang Hue. “Never boastful or show-off, but quiet and unassuming, Sang Hue was a star in his own right, a dynamo. May his soul rest in peace!” Fletcher said. Doctrove, who read the second lesson, described Sang Hue as a “trailblazer”, and, “one who set the stage for other regional umpires like himself”. “He applied the laws as they should, and was a stickler for details,” said Doctrove, who recently retired from the ICC Elite Panel of Umpires. Sang Hue, who umpired at the international level in the 1970s and 1980s, and was the first West Indies umpire to officiate at county cricket level in England, died on August 22. He was 82.

Shairaz Roshandin enthusiastic about September 28 race meet

WITH the Guyana Motor Racing and Sports Club (GMR&SC) Race Day just one week away, some drivers are eager to put their machines on the track at the South Dakota Circuit and to thrill the thousands of motor racing-hungry fans who usually grace the famed venue. One driver, Shairaz Roshandin is already sounding the horns and his intention to make a clean sweep when he competes in the Group 2 category on Sunday, September 28. Roshandin is one of Guyana’s premier drivers and, coming off a horrid showing at the Caribbean Motor Racing Association (CMRA), Caribbean Motor Racing Championship (CMRC) leg in Trinidad, the Honda Civic sporting driver is hoping to use the event to bounce back and prepare for the November 16 race meet. Sponsored by RUBiS Guyana Inc, MS Roshandin Professional Diesel Work and Total Lubricant, Roshandin told Chronicle Sport yesterday, “Things didn’t go too well in Trinidad, though we did great in Barbados, so the race meet on September 28 is very important
to most of us and it will be very competitive. He added that the likes of Chet and Ray Singh along with John Joseph will pose a threat on race day, but he’s hoping his 2000cc power Honda Civic will be in tip-top shape to ensure victory. “I was on course of having a great time in Trinidad but unfortunately, I was among the Guyanese drivers whose cars faulted over there so most of us didn’t do too well, except for Danny Persaud. So September 28 is important,” said Roshandin. It’s clear that most drivers will be using the September 28 event to give Guyanese a taste of what to expect in November when the South Dakota track plays host to the Caribbean best drivers and their toys in round 3 of the CRMC. Meanwhile, Guyana’s Kristian Jeffrey leads the CMRA individual points standing with 85 points and he is followed by Danny Persaud who is 11 adrift, while another Guyanese Paul Vieira has 43. In the Country standing, T&T lead on 314 followed by Barbados with 300, Guyana third on 297 and Jamaica in the cellar on 151.

Chanderpaul, Blackwood propel Windies to massive lead GROS ISLET, St Lucia (CMC) – Shiv Chanderpaul’s second half-century of the match and third in as many innings, propelled West Indies to a massive lead and left Bangladesh with a Herculean task of saving the second Test. At the close of the third day here yesterday, West Indies were 208 for four, already a lead of 427 runs, with two days still left in the contest at the Beausejour Cricket Ground. Once again, it was Chanderpaul who was at the heart of the Windies progress, finishing on 63 not out to follow up his unbeaten 84 in the first innings. He has so far added 108
for the fifth wicket with Jermaine Blackwood, who was in sight of his second Test half-century on 43. Their stand was required when West Indies slumped to 100 for four, 20 minutes after tea, courtesy of a double strike by offspinner Mahmudullah who removed Darren Bravo for seven and then opener Kraigg Brathwaite in quick succession. Chanderpaul has so far faced 98 balls and struck five fours while Blackwood has hit a four and a six off 96 deliveries. West Indies had earlier claimed a commanding 219-run lead, after leftarm spinner Sulieman Benn picked up two of the last three wickets to fall as
Bangladesh were bowled out for 161 in their first innings. Resuming from their overnight 104 for seven, the visitors were eventually dismissed 20 minutes before lunch, with Benn finishing with two for 19. Seamers Kemar Roach, who took five for 42, and Jerome Taylor, two for 41, failed to add to their spoils from Sunday. Bangladesh kept the Windies wicket-less for nearly 45 minutes in the morning session with Mahmudullah, unbeaten on 13 overnight, taking the fight to the West Indies bowlers with a top score of 53.
