$13.7 B to be spent on roads and bridges network improvement
- financial feasibility study to be completed for bypass road from Ogle to Eccles
SEVERAL key roads and bridges projects, all aimed at alleviating much of the current traffic bottlenecks across the country, will be undertaken this year under a carefully thought out budgetary allocation. Out of the total $13.7B allocation, the sum of $12.9B will be spent on roads and $844.2M on bridges. “Government recognises that investment in physical infrastructure remains a critical prerequisite to accelerated economic development, given the existing infrastructure gaps,” Finance Minister Dr. Ashni Singh said during the Budget presentation on Monday. He alluded to the fact that improved linkages with neighbouring countries, within the country’s own borders, between producers and consumers, across and within communities, all lend themselves to improved competitiveness and connectedness. According to Minister Singh, the four -lane access road to the Cheddi Jagan International Airport (CJIA) and the East Bank of Demerara four-lane highway are slated for completion this year. Further works will commence on the West Coast of Demerara Road and will include pavement rehabilitation, pedestrian and cycle lanes in selected high traffic areas, and street lighting. The Finance Minister pointed out that provisions have also been made for the widening of the East Coast Highway, and road reconstruction works for the upgrading of Better Hope to Belfield will commence. Construction of the Parika/Ruby Backdam roads will begin, thus opening up access to over 330 farming households and over 2,000 acres of mixed crop farming. Minister Singh also announced that engineering designs for the Canal Polder Nos. 1 and 2 roads and feasibility studies and designs for the extension of the highway from Diamond to Timehri will be undertaken.
On the East Bank Berbice, studies and designs will be completed and the complete reconstruction of six kilometres from Stanleytown to Everton and upgrade of 11.5 kilometres from Belle Vue to Light Town will commence. FEASIBILITY STUDY FOR BYPASS ROAD Dr. Singh also announced that the government will complete a financial feasibility study for the construction of a bypass road from Ogle on the East Coast to Eccles on the East Bank, which will open new areas for development and investment and create
a second route to reduce the congestion for the East Bank Demerara traffic. This, the minister said, will constitute the first phase in the development of an alternative route to the CJIA, thereby linking the countries two international airports and opening up a new development corridor for the East Bank of Demerara. An amount of $7.7B is allocated for the improvement of rural, community and hinterland roads, and for street lighting from Belle Vue to Patentia on the West Bank of Demerara. Further, Dr. Singh said negotiations have advanced substantially between the Brazilian and Guyanese technical working groups regarding the preparation of a design study for the construction of the Linden to Lethem road. The technical assessment for alternative transport options, Dr. Singh said, includes the cost benefit analysis of a rail link to ultimately connect with the deep water harbour and container port on the Berbice River. For this particular project, Dr. Singh said the administration has collaborated with the Surinamese Government for the construction of a fixed bridge over the Corentyne River. Further, resources are budgeted to upgrade the road link from Springlands to Moleson Creek and to prepare the bridge terminal facility at the crossing. Additionally, the feasibility study for the new Demerara Bridge has been completed, and Government has invited expressions of interest for a public-private partnership for its construction and budgeted $338M for critical works to extend the life of the Demerara Harbour Bridge. In 2013, government invested $11.3 billion to continue the construction of the East Bank of Demerara and East Coast of Demerara four lane highways, CJIA access road, rural, community and hinterland roads, additional street lighting, and the rehabilitation of the Demerara Harbour Bridge.

Remembering Cheddi
“My opponents say ‘ Jagan you are honest and sincere, but we don’t like your connections and associations and methods. Your goals, your ends may be good, but your means are foul, wicked and bad.’ My answer to that is very simple. If I am honest and sincere, it is because of my beliefs, my ideology. For me, there is a unity of ends and means. Every means must be good in itself no matter in what stage of struggle. Freedom is inseparable from struggle.” August 2, 1996

Record 11 ministers fired 19 T&T Muslims held in Venezuela ...Suspicion of being terrorists from Kamla’s govt (Trinidad Express) AN unprecedented 11th minister was fired Tuesday in the person of Glenn Ramadharsingh. A 12th minister, Jack Warner, left of his own volition amidst allegations of financial impropriety, following the Concacaf Ethics Committee report. The People’s Partnership Government has not yet completed four years in office. Out of the 11 people fired, four were axed in response to specific allegations. In May 2011, Mary King became the first minister to be dismissed in this government, following allegations of conflict of interest in the award of a contract. Next in line was Minister in the Ministry of National Security Collin Partap in August 2012, following allegations that he refused to take a breathalyser test after leaving a nightclub. One month later then Justice Minister Herbert Volney was given the boot, for allegedly misleading the Cabinet over the Section 34 fiasco. Now Ramadharsingh has been dismissed as Minister of
the People and Social Development. Sources said yesterday there were calls for Ramadharsingh to resign his Caroni Central seat in the Parliament as well, a seat which the UNC has never lost and is therefore considered very winnable for that party. Apart from having a specific infraction levelled at them, Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar has also fired ministers for apparent non-performance. In these instances she gave the vague reason of Cabinet reorganisation. In June 2011, Subhas Panday, Minister in the National Security Ministry, was relieved of his portfolio in the first Cabinet reshuffle, along with Therese Baptiste-Cornelis and Nan Ramgoolam. They were all senators and were replaced by Devant Maharaj, Verna St Rose-Greaves and Nicole Dyer Griffith (who was a parliamentary secretary). By the next reshuffle in June 2012, St Rose-Greaves was out, along with John Sandy and Dyer Griffith. In came Jamal Mohammed and Marlene Coudray.
PM Kamla Persad-Bissessar
Mohammed’s appointment was however short-lived. He was fired in September 2013 and replaced by Gerry Hadeed. In September 2012, when Volney was fired, Christlyn Moore was appointed. Moore’s appointment was terminated in September 2013 when Gary Griffith was appointed National Security Minister. Griffith replaced Jack Warner who had resigned in April of that year and was temporarily replaced by Emmanuel George.
Guatemala City fire destroys La Terminal market (BBC News) A FIRE has destroyed most of Guatemala City’s main market, wiping out more than 1,000 stalls. Four people have been injured and dozens more were treated for smoke inhalation. The cause of the blaze is still being investigated. Thousands of traders from all over Guatemala earn their living at the market, known as La Terminal. Thick smoke columns could be seen from several places in the Guatemalan capital. The fire began in the early hours of Tuesday and spread quickly, consuming Lack of water and of the appropriate equipment the stalls made mostly of plastic and hampered the work of volunteers wood.
(Trinidad Express) AT LEAST 19 Trinidadian Muslims are now in the custody of the Venezuelan intelligence service SEBIN (Servicio Bolivariano de Inteligencia Nacional), under the suspicion of being terrorists. Well-placed intelligence sources in Venezuela confirmed the arrests of the Trinidadians, along with two other non-nationals at Plaza Hotel in Sabana Grande, Caracas. The arrests followed a daytime raid last Wednesday. The Express and TV6 News understand that three Trinidadian imams were among those held during the raid. They are all being detained at SEBIN headquarters in Caracas. The Express and TV6 News were informed that officers from SEBIN searched the hotel rooms of the Trinidadians and found military-style uniforms and Jihadist videos. They also confiscated US$102,000 in cash and 66 passports that were in the possession of one of the Imams, who is attached to the Montrose Masjid. The imams claimed they were not connected to the group and said they had come to Venezuela to secure visas at the Saudi Arabian consulate for Trinidadians who were going to the Hajj pilgrimage. But intelligence sources in Venezuela who checked into their story indicated that the imams had some of the arrested group members’ passports in their custody. “When we checked into their story we understand that they were trying to get the passports of these group members renewed by going to their consulate here in Venezuela.”
Intelligence sources close to the investigation informed the Express and TV6 News that the imams were attempting to renew the passports of the members, stating that they were travelling to Syria in a few months. A high-ranking security source in Venezuela told the Express and TV6 News that the Trinidadians are being treated as suspected terrorists as it is believed they were leaving for Syria to fight in the Jihadist war. Umar Abullah, head of the Islamic Front in Trinidad, said: “We have been asking for a long time for this Government to establish diplomatic relations with the Saudi government as it relates to visa and travel requirements to the holy land. It would prevent incidents like this with Imams having to travel to Venezuela with huge amounts of money and people’s passports if we can establish a Saudi consulate here.” But one of the men, authorities believe, is instrumental in teaching some of the group members to use firearms and is wanted in Trinidad on a suspected murder charge. Another one of the men now in custody was detained for questioning during the 2011 state of emergency in Trinidad. He was suspected of being part of an alleged plot to assassinate Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar and some members of her administration. The Express and TV6 News obtained the names of all of the persons in custody, but decided to withhold them until further investigations. Apart from the three imams in custody, there are eight children, ranging in ages from two to 11, five adult men and three women.

Granger shows lack of understanding of national development
IT is undisputed that the national budgets presented for the last twenty years by the PPP/C governments have delivered the following results: socio-economic programmes that have overwhelmingly brought benefits to the Guyanese people, thereby elevating their economic holdings, while at the same time enhancing their social esteem; providing an enabling environment for investment, through institutional regulatory measures, and various incentives that have eliminated impediments against doing business in Guyana; and massive rebuilding of infrastructure, that has been a central support of its transformative and modernisation programme. However, there are many within the political opposition who have had great difficulty accepting these significant and commendable achievements, albeit with a grudge. As well as another category, from within this very strange parliamentary mix, calling themselves peoples representative, who surprisingly continues to display a frightening ignorance as to what such development entails, particularly the obligatory necessity of sustaining such a programme. David Granger, despite his well-known academic pedigree, definitely displays a serious lack of understanding as to what entails national development policies, and their means of continuity. As leader of the A Partnership for National Unity (APNU) who has national leadership aspirations, this continued lack of incomprehensibility must by now convey to the national body politic, inclusive to his party’s numerous supporters, the conclu-
siveness as to his unsuitability for leadership. For him to declare in a post-budget statement, that “this is a maintenance budget” displays a blinkered knowledge of the imperatives of national development, and what such means for a country and its people. Granger needs no reminder that under the former Peoples National Congress (PNC) illegal regime, under which he once served in the pivotal position as national security adviser, that the national asset base had become the victim of abysmal care, and shameful neglect. Thus by the end of the 1980s, virtually all of its components had become obliterated. This is a record of fact, and is therefore irrefutable. Such a revealing scandal drew the frank and candid observations of a well-known West Indian international cricket commentator, about the state of the capital city’s roads at that time. There was even an earlier comment, in 1972, made by a visiting overseas-based Guyanese health worker who described the then country’s mental health hospital and other facets of the state health system, as primitive. These are undeniable truths, with the former criticism attracting the displeasure of a then very senior PNC government potentate, ever since deceased. Under the PPP/C administration, not only has the national asset base been restored, but it has expanded four fold, as part of the socio-economic development policies to meet the needs of the people, as well as that of the modernisation process. The
Poll fabricated to cause mischief within the PPP/C BY now, most readers of Kaieteur News are familiar with the venom that is spewed almost on a daily basis in the Freddie Kissoon column. Why is this man allowed to poison the minds of your readers is as mysterious as the person who conducted the ridiculous poll that suggests “former President Bharrat Jagdeo is the one most favoured to be the PPP/C presidential candidate for the next general elections” (Guyana Chronicle, March 20). It is ludicrous to believe that this “poll” was ever conducted at all. As a matter of fact, I am convinced that this “poll” is fabricated to cause mischief within the PPP/C. It will not succeed. Bharrat Jagdeo is barred by the Constitution of Guyana from ever becoming President again. Therefore, to invoke his name with others in a poll question to determine “who is most favoured to be the PPP/C Presidential candidate for the next general election,” clearly shows ignorance of the Constitution. And for anyone to suggest that this so-called “poll” was conducted by the “combined Opposition” must be new to the world of politics. No opposition party or combined opposition would release the findings of an internal poll that clearly shows results unfavourable to them. Do anyone believe that Khemraj Ramjattan would agree to release the embarrassing findings of a poll that shows if a snap election is called now, his party, the AFC would only secure 7% of the votes, less than the “undecided”? I don’t think so. And would David Granger release the findings of a poll that gives APNU 37% of the votes compared to 46% for the PPP/C in an upcoming election? Even Freddie Kissoon cannot believe David Granger would be so naive. Is there a conspiracy among some to discredit the leadership ability of His Excellency Donald Ramotar? Quite possible, for politics is a dirty game. But one thing is certain... the PPP Executive stands firmly behind the President, and so do I. Former President Bharrat Jagdeo demitted office since August 2011. He has served his country well and should be proud of it. He is committed to serve in an advisory position or as a roving ambassador undertaking special missions if asked to do so by our President. This is not a novel idea. All former Presidents of the United States serve their country in similar capacities if asked to do so by the current President, and Americans are not opposed to that. In fact, they expect former Presidents to do just that. Why then are some so focused on Jagdeo that they fail to see all the development taking place throughout the administrative regions that are improving the lives of so many Guyanese? Freddie Kissoon is nothing more than a rabble-rouser doing the dirty work of the opposition. Sources familiar with Kissoon suggest he may well be on the payroll of the opposition parties. Of course, I have no way to determine the validity of this insinuation. But reading the Kissoon column as I sometimes do, I often ask myself: “How can anyone hate so much, day after day after day?” Isn’t there anything that this PPP/C Government has done since 1992 that would be appreciated by Freddie Kissoon? Yet he lives in a very big house in an affluent neighbourhood, has an income, drives a vehicle, and abuses the very freedom of speech guaranteed by the Constitution and protected by the same people he libels: The President and Ministers of his Government. Surely Kissoon is much better off today than under the notorious PNC regime that bankrupted the economy, making it impossible for him to achieve the level of success he now enjoys today under the PPP/C. HARRY GILL
number of schools, hospitals and health centres, roads, bridges and culverts, built throughout the ten administrative regions is an unchallenged testimony as how vastly different Guyana has now become, as compared to those unproductive and repressive years of PNC dictatorial rule. It stands to good reason that any credible government that would have done so much for the country that it had removed from decades of neglect, restoring its respectability, while in the process taking it to the level of developing nation status, would want to ensure that it continues to service its asset base, assuring its sustained longevity. The fact that Granger must be reminded of is that the government has the highest regard for the labour of the Guyanese workers and their paid taxes, which forms a most integral part of paying for this country’s development. Had this been of even the slightest consideration of the former PNC administration, greater care would have been taken to maintain the nation’s assets during their infamous reign. National assets have to be maintained, as they are the raison d’etre and cornerstone of every State’s development ethos.
All is not well at J.C Chandisingh Secondary PLEASE allow me to view some serious problems that are affecting the progress at J.C. Chandisingh Secondary School. I am hoping that the relevant authorities would address these concerns urgently. Two of my children are attending this school not to mention I was a former student of this school. The following are my concerns: * The HM is frequently late and absent. As such it is very difficult to make contact with her. * The HM never addresses the students at a general assembly. * The school is always out of finance and very often fund-raising activities are being held. * Lots of time some teachers are absent, late or not going to their classes. Many days I would check my children books only to find out that they did not do any work for the day due to a teacher being absent, late or didn’t go to the class because he/she was in the HM office attending to some matter. Shouldn’t there be some sort of system in place for the students to be taught in the absence of a teacher? I am working very hard to send my children to school and it pains my heart when they waste a whole day not doing anything in school. * Another problem is that the science teacher and the head of the Science Department, encourage students to copy old SBAs instead of having these students do the experiments and write their own report. * Also the Agricultural Science head expects the students to bring their tools from home to work in the garden. I feel the school is responsible for providing tools for the students to work with in the garden. * The Information Technology Department is not functioning for over one month because the IT teacher migrated and also there is no electricity in the lab. How could the IT students be prepared for their CSEC examination which is a month from now? * The teacher that is in charge of the Social Studies Department is regularly late to work. How can the Department function with such a head? * Students are habitually late to school. I am working on the road so I can tell you this. What are the teachers doing about students’ lateness? * Last but not least, the school environment is very untidy and there seems to be an absence of bins which is contributing to the deplorable state of the compound. I suggest that the HM be transferred to a school closer to her home or a smaller school which she will be better able to manage. PARENT

$1.8 billion allocated to Justice Sector - critical infrastructural works to be done
HIGH on Government’s agenda, through its Justice Sector budgetary allocation, will be to further consolidate the advances already made within the sector. Finance Minister Dr. Ashni Singh stated on Monday that the requisite law revision order was gazetted in February, bringing into effect the newly amended and consolidated version of the Laws of Guyana. This is in accordance with the Law Revision Act Cap. 2:02. Further, as part of government’s commitment towards increasing capacity within the sector, a number of practice directions are being drafted to support the new Rules of the High Court Civil Procedure. These new rules, the Finance Minister said, will
simplify the commencement of proceedings in court, to allow citizens easier access to the court, and provide the mechanism for recourse to mediation In addition, this year’s budgetary allocation will make provision for the Civil and Criminal Justice Committees to intensify their efforts toward monitoring and evaluating the performance of Magistrates’ and High Courts countrywide. Minister Singh added that a baseline report on the use of court resources is expected to be produced to aid the monitoring and evaluation of the performance of the courts, thereby ensuring more timely access to justice. Additionally, in 2014, voice recordings will be in-
troduced for the first time in the Chief Justice’s Court, the Commercial Court and the Court of Appeal, which is expected to further reduce the time taken to record and process cases. Moreover, Government has also increased the number of Puisne Judges to 20, with a view to enhancing the system’s capacity to discharge its important functions in a timely manner. As it relates to investments for infrastructure, the sum of $238.5M has been allocated for same. Out of this allocation, the manifestation of the Land Court will be realised, along with a new Magistrates’ Court at Sparendaam, the completion of the No. 51 Village Court, the rehabilitation of courtrooms at the High Court, and maintenance of
Parfaite Harmonie businesswoman shot during robbery FIFTY-TWO year old Ann Gravesande of 301 Westminster Parfaite Harmonie West Bank of Demerara was yesterday morning shot when three bandits invaded her business place which is located at her home. The Guyana Chronicle was informed that the men entered the shop under the pretext of being customers and called for an item. When the woman decided to tend to them, one of them pointed a gun in her direction and demanded the cash which was in the drawer. The woman who eventually handed over the money had had some hesitation and was shot. The bandit then shot the woman a second time causing her to sustain two shots during the incident. She was shot to the arm and leg and was rushed to the West Demerara Regional Hospital. When the woman arrived at that hospital her condition was assessed and she was transferred to the Diamond Hospital where she was given some amount of treatment before referring her back to the West Demerara Regional Hospital where she was admitted. This newspaper was Ms. Gravesande being taken into the West Demerara on hand when the woman regional Hospital returned to the West Demerara Regional Hospital with her husband by her side. Her hand and foot were bandaged and she was being wheeled into the emergency room. Her husband who identified himself as Paul said that he was not in a position to speak at the moment. He however said that it was his wife who can give the information about what transpired but she too was unable to speak since the doctors were tending to her. Yesterday the police said that one of the bandits was armed with a hand gun and it was he who shot the woman. The police have not been able to apprehend anyone in connection with the incident.( Leroy Smith )
facilities nationwide. Meanwhile, in 2013, $275.5M was spent on infrastructure in the justice sector for the construction and upgrade of several facilities, including the Mediation Centre in New Amsterdam and various Magistrates’ Courts, along with rehabilitation of the High Court. Additionally, the Chambers of the Director of Public Prosecutions in Georgetown and New Amsterdam were fully renovated, thus expanding
the residential presence and, by extension, effectiveness of the public prosecutorial function beyond Georgetown. With regard to strengthening effectiveness of the justice system, both one Civil and three Criminal Justice Committees were established to review the functioning of Guyana’s justice system, monitor and evaluate the performance of the courts. In addition, a Prosecutors’ Management Information System, which is expected to accel-
erate the processing of criminal depositions, was installed and is operational at the DPP’s Chambers. Guyana’s Law Reports for the period 1930 to 2007, and the revision of the Laws of Guyana up to 2010 were completed, and the latter is now available in print for the first time in 34 years. Reduction of backlogged cases continued apace, with an additional 1,000 cases being cleared out of the court system. (GINA)

Education sector allocated lion’s share of National Budget ($32.2B)
* $32.2B for education, 2013 allocation was $28.5B
* US$10M Universal Secondary Education initiative * $450M for UG student loan programme * $1.4B for UG campuses By Ravin Singh
THE Education sector was allocated the lion’s share of the 2014 Budget-32.2B, which was presented to the National Assembly on Monday by the Minister of Finance, Dr. Ashni Singh. And the monies are expected to go towards the implementation of year one of the new Education Strategic Plan for 2014 to 2018 and other aspects of the education system. Singh said: “The new Education Strategic Plan for 2014 to 2018 is currently being finalised and is anticipated to focus on improving literacy rates, early childhood development, teacher training, enrolment in single sciences, technical vocational educational programmes, and more structured partnerships with private sector providers and parents. “…support will be given to develop strategic plans for ministries and regions and for the first time regional action plans will be formulated to support the consistent roll out of the new five year strategic plan for education sector.” AREAS OF SUPPORT The minister explained that in 2014, some $2.9B will be dedicated towards the construction, rehabilitation, extension and maintenance of our educational facilities including a new and expanded Zeeburg Secondary School and the Kato Secondary complex. In addition, the monies are expected to facilitate the implementation of a US$10M Universal Secondary Education initiative, which will facilitate the construction of new secondary schools and provision of materials for improved teaching techniques and technology assisted learning in mathematics. Singh said: “Our teachers’ training college will continue to offer their existing programmes, as well as focus on the appraisal and development of their lecturers including having some teachers pursue postgraduate degrees.” Works are also expected to intensify to eliminate illiteracy and strengthen public awareness to ensure that parents understand their vital role in the literacy development of their children. In the area of ICT, Government will allocate resources to ensure
that an additional 2,500 teachers are trained, and all of our secondary schools are equipped with computer laboratories before the end of 2014.” “We recognise that equipping our young people with technical vocational education training (TVET) skills linked with entrepreneurship training is an assured option for enabling their viability, and this year we will expand opportunities to include occupational programmes to support the mining and hospitality industries,” the minister added. Continued emphasis is also expected to be placed on tertiary education with an allocation of $1.4B towards the operation of both campuses of the University of Guyana, inclusive of $450M for our student loan programme. “Later this year our students will have the option of online degree programmes for the first time ever. Also, through the University of Guyana Science and Technology Support initiative 14 science and technology buildings will be rehabilitated and equipped and a feasibility study for the new Centre of Excellence for the Study of Biodiversity will commence. Futher, 17 programmes have been identified for curriculum reform which will be designed and tested over a three-year period,” Singh disclosed, WORK IN 2013 Last year the education sector received an allocation of $28.5B. The Finance Minister pointed out the many works undertaken last year. A sum of $2.7B was spent on the infrastructure of schools and other educational facilities, including commencing the reconstruction of One-Mile Primary School, La Venture Secondary School and Parfaite Harmonie Primary. Additionally, the $50M Harold B. Davis Special School for differently-abled children was commissioned in January this year. In addition 16 secondary computer labs were completed as part of our efforts to ensure all secondary schools have access to IT. Another $35.2M was expended towards the commencement of the University of Guyana Science and Technology Support initiative, while $50M was made available to ensure greater access to tertiary level education via online programmes. In the area of teacher training Government continued the upgrading programme in the communities in Regions 1, 8 and 9 permitting more hinterland persons to be
eligible to access the Trained Teacher’s Certificate Programme and under which 159 teachers were certified in 2013. Additionally 177 teachers have entered the system as trained teachers from the Cyril Potter’s College of Education (CPCE). Singh said: “Over $1B was expended on the National School Feeding Programme to the benefit of over 65,000 children, while $208M was spent on the National Uniform Programme, benefitting over 139,000 children in our efforts to ensure improved attendance and attentiveness in the classroom.” Last year also, a five per cent increase in salaries was granted to teachers in the public education system with effect from January 2013, following an agreement between the Government and the Guyana Teachers Union for the years from 2011 to 2015. “Government has already made significant investments in the education sector, seeking to ensure universal access, and to raise both quality of delivery and attainment rates. The result has been the achievement of universal primary education and significant progress towards achieving universal secondary education,” the minister said. He maintained that the Guyana envisioned by the current Administration is one where every single Guyanese person has access to social services of a suitably high quality, and where national education attainment indicators meet international standards.

Old Kai: Chronicles of Guyana
Granger’s attack on private sector’s initiative not surprising DAVID Granger continues to exhibit the economic skills which once brought this country to ruin in attacking the Pakaraima Mountain Safari Old Kai is not surprised at the latest attack by the opposition against a private sector initiative; it is trademark stuff, this time being led by opposition leader, David Granger. The focus of Granger’s ire is the 12th annual Pakaraima Mountain Safari organised by Rainforest Tours, whose owner Frank Singh has received numerous awards for his contribution towards expanding the tourism industry in Guyana. Old Kai is very familiar with this Safari, having been a member on more than one occasion. Frank also conducts overland trips to Kaieteur Falls and several other similar ventures which should be applauded, rather than condemned by the APNU leadership. Imagine, this is the very David Granger who just the previous day complained about ‘job creation’ after the reading of the national budget but now he finds it convenient to attack private sector led initiatives which are creating those jobs for our people. It does not get more hypocritical than this. The ignorance is magnified when one considers the contentions which led to Granger’s attack on the annual safari. According to the eternal green shirt man, who must not be mistaken for a sour-fig banana, “The residents, mainly indigenous people of the Patamona nation…continue to suffer the daily disdain of central government and negligence of the Ministry of Local Government and Regional Development.” He goes on to state that the region which is the country’s fifth largest, “…. possesses no proper roads, despite the Government’s safari…The entire region remains virtually inaccessible by road and is dependent on expensive air transport for travelling, evacuation of medical patients and cargo.” Notice the contradiction, as if the region was ‘virtually inaccessible by road’ how are so many vehicles embarking on this Safari every year?
That aside can the Mr. Green shirt man please tell us who cut the funding for these very people in the National budgets of 2012 and 2013, including the numerous initiatives under the Low Carbon Development Strategy to the tune of billions? Can the APNU leader also say why he teamed up with the AFC again to cut the presidential financial grants to Amerindian communities, including for these very communities he is now shedding crocodile tears over? And, when he is done answering those, he can tell us why he sat in Parliament and remained silent when the AFC led by Khemraj Ramjattan attacked a PPP/C Government initiative which sought to provide transportation to take Amerindian children to school in these very areas and to provide transportation for citizens and their farm produce? Mr. Granger should know that Guyanese are not foolish; they are more familiar with the geography of this country, unlike a time when they were prevented from visiting certain parts of their homeland when he was carrying out the orders of Papa Doc Burnham. Citizens know the land outlay of the Pakaraimas, after all it is a mountain range but apparently APNU expects a four-lane highway to be constructed. Travelling through these mountains will always be difficult and the terrain is sometimes unforgiving, but that is the natural layout of the land. I am wondering what kind of a history bluff is Granger as we are told that these communities were established centuries ago when this particular tribe went to the most isolated areas to avoid the aggressive Caribs. So obviously, it will be a challenge to access these communities. However, it should be noted that no roads existed prior to 1992 in these areas; it was the PPP/C which started an initiative to build roads linking these communities. PPP stalwart Harrypersaud Nokta is the man who was instrumental in this process and it was he who initiated this Safari as a way of bringing much needed attention to these communities and
Teixeira: APNU ‘still amending their amendments’ By Vanessa Narine
CHAIR of the Parliamentary Special Select Committee reviewing the Anti-Money Laundering and Countering the Terrorism of Finance (AML/CFT) Bill, Ms Gail Teixeira, told the Guyana Chronicle that A Partnership for Unity (APNU) is still making amendments to their amendments. “Up to last night (Tuesday night) Mr. Dhurjon was asked to undertake further drafting of the amendments that were proposed by the APNU,” she said, adding: “Amendments have been made to the initial amendments, so the work of the Committee continues.” The APNU’s three amendments address: Changing the entire governing apparatus of the Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU); removing the term, Attorney-General, wherever it appears and replacing it with the initials, FIU; and vesting police or customs officers with the power to seize currency from any person, anywhere in Guyana, if those officers have reason to believe that the currency is the proceeds of a crime or will be used to finance crime. Teixeira said the government has voiced its concern over the inordinately long time it has been taking to have the AML/CFT Bill returned to Parliament for passage. “It is very clear at the Committee level what the APNU wants… They are not prepared to move ahead with the Bill on which there is agreement,” she said. Noting that the work of the Committee is not the only deciding factor where passage of the critically important Bill is concerned, Teixeira said: “You have to keep remembering that they have made this a package with the many demands that have been linked to the AML/CFT Bill.” She said that in addition to their amendments, APNU is also calling for President Ramotar to assent to several Bills he returned to the National Assembly, with an explanation of his
decision, reasons that were centred on the unconstitutionality of the legislations. On the other hand, the Alliance For Change (AFC), which supports APNU’s every position, is calling for the establishment of the Public Procurement Commission (PPC), which the government is in favour of, provided that Cabinet retains its no-objection role in the procurement process. The latter has been rejected by the AFC. Guyana missed the February 28 deadline when the country was required to submit a report to the CFATF; that report was expected to include a copy of the enacted Bill, which, after analysis, will be correlated to the deficiencies identified by the Body at its November 2013 Plenary meeting, before a report is made in May 2014. Guyana, unfortunately, was only able to report on the non-legislative recommendations by CFATF. If the May Plenary is dissatisfied with Guyana’s progress, CFATF’s November GAIL TEIXEIRA 2013 s tate me n t al ready provides for the decision for the country’s referral to the Financial Action Task Force (FATF), which meets again in June 2014.
their people. Guyanese and foreigners now had an opportunity to witness this aspect of our unique culture and this venture in turn, had its own economic spinoffs. Persons are employed from these communities along the trail; the shops receive more business as money is injected into these village economies. How can Mr. Granger in his right mind, criticise such an initiative and at the same time say he is concerned about the future economic well-being of these communities? The first Safaris were the start of something which hopefully will lead to greater activities year-round for these communities. Today, it has grown in the numbers participating and I am confident that in the future this trend will continue. Back in my time, apart from the village guest house there was not much accommodation. We would have to set up our hammocks in trees along the route, the police outpost where ranks were accommodating, or around the homes of villagers. It was the first time in living memory, there was competition to sleep in a police cell. Basically wherever we found a bit of shade over our heads we slept, it did not matter. That was part of the raw adventure. However, with the numbers steadily increasing, including overseas visitors and consideration for an increased number of females, it is creating a demand for established accommodation facilities. We started with about 7 to 8 vehicles 12 years ago; today we are told that figure has grown to over 40. So you can clearly see the increasing trend and the economic opportunities which are being created for these communities. Had the APNU and AFC not cut the LCD’s funding and the Presidential grants, some of those funds could have very well been used by these Amerindian communities to establish better accommodation areas which would bring in an additional source of revenue for their villages. So essentially, Mr. Granger has to hold himself and Ramjattan responsible for the concerns he has enumerated.

Police ‘A’ Division holds farewell parade for outgoing CoP Brumell By Leroy Smith
‘A’ Division police yesterday held a small farewell parade and appreciation ceremony for outgoing Commissioner Leroy Brumell at its headquarters on Brickdam. At Brickdam, the farewell wishes were many, and all were delivered with one note: Police Commissioner Leroy Brumell was a very simple, even-handed, approachable, respectful and respected police officer; and those were the qualities that facilitated his elevation in rank to become the highest police officer in the Force. In his speech, ‘A’ Division Commander George Vyphius recalled that it was Commissioner Brumell who had been
the best man at his wedding years ago. Vyphius said that Brumell led by example and from the front. He recalled the many combat periods where Brumell was always literally in the frontline. Another officer who worked with Brumell told the gathering that it was Brumell who stood out during the crime wave of 2002, and who would join his ranks whenever they were required to go into the danger zone -- Buxton. In his response, CoP Brumell told his officers he is proud to be leaving the Guyana Police Force with a clean record, and one which allows him to lift his head high and walk. He said he was happy and confident that
A section of the crowd at Brumell’s farewell parade at the Brickdam Police Station yesterday afternoon he was leaving a stable police force which would be able to stand up to any situation that comes along. According to the Top Cop, the media reports that the Force will be left with inexperienced ranks when he and the A Division Commander retire, but that is far from the truth, because there are many capable and ambitious young men and women in the Force who can lead it to the place it needs to be, and they have been receiving training and are fully ready to lead the Force when called upon. An official farewell parade will be held for outgoing Police Commissioner Leroy Brumell tomorrow at Eve Leary.

Willis’ body being removed by undertakers
Ms Joyce Willis (Photos by Asif Hakim) deceased lived through a back window on the lower flat, since the grillwork on that window was removed and the house ransacked. Ms Willis, described as easy-going and a good neighbour, has reportedly been living alone since her husband, an ex-policeman, died, and her children migrated to the United States. Speculation is rife in the neighbourhood that the perp(s) may have been someone outside the community since Ms Willis was well loved by just about everyone in theirs. Her best friend, who asked to remain anonymous, said she got up on the night in question around 00:00hrs and spoke with Willis, as they were planning to go shopping the following day, as is their wont on occasion. The woman said that after speaking with Willis, she went back to bed at around 01:00hr, and, getting back up at 06:00hrs, began calling for Willis but the phone just kept ringing out.
The home in which Joyce Willis was murdered After going at it for about thirty minutes, she then placed a call to the deceased’s son, whose only name was given as Dr. Stanley, and told him that something may have been the matter with his mom. She said Stanley called back moments later with the shocking news that her friend was dead. Unable to control herself, the woman said: “I can’t live without Joyce; I can’t do without Joyce; she is my best friend. Everywhere she goes, she takes me; she means a lot to me; she helps me a lot; I can’t live now.” Shane Willis, a cousin of the deceased, told the Guyana Chronicle that having gotten a call from a relative of theirs saying Joyce had died, he rushed down to her Christiani Street house where he met her sister crying and screaming at the top

Dem kill she!” At the time, Shane said, the police were already at the scene, and upon seeing him, the deceased’s sister told him to jump the fence, whereupon he saw a bloody cutlass wrapped in green cloth and a bundle of keys in front the house. Shane, who was in the habit of checking up on his cousin from time to time, since she lived all alone, said: “My cousin is a very good woman; she is a very good and helpful woman; she don’t trouble noone. Why did they tie her down and rape her? She is so old, and they did her that?” Willis’ body was removed by undertakers from the Lyken Funeral Home after the police were done with their investigation.

Budget 2014 answers call of allocated for Shipping Association – funds Port Georgetown THE submission of a paper to government entitled ‘Concept paper for the improvement of the Georgetown Harbour through public/private sector partnership’ has seen results as an allocation for Port
Georgetown has been made in the 2014 Budget. The document had been submitted by a working group comprising 10 persons, five each from government and the Shipping Association of Guyana (SAG).
Minister of Finance Dr. Ashni Singh stated in his presentation of the Budget on Monday that government has recognised the urgent need for capital dredging of the mouth of the Demerara River. He ex-
plained that this has been the subject of considerable attention from government, and from the private sector, affected by its implications for shipping access to the river channel. The depth of the channel basin has been reduced to an unsatisfactory level which has resulted in limitations in the draft of vessels able to transit the route. The consequence has been reductions of the volume of cargo per vessel being moved and increased freight costs. As such, government will establish a special purpose entity to address this matter this year, and will work closely with the private sector to attract
the necessary financing for this endeavour to commence and be successfully executed. “To support the preparatory work, Budget 2014 makes an allocation of $100M to advance the required technical and other assessments,” Minister Singh stated. In January, SAG Chairman Desmond Sears had stated that the organisation’s vision was one of optimising Guyana’s maritime transportation potential through the provision of effective and efficient services at ports and harbours. This, he observed, would contribute to the improvement of Guyana’s international trade competitive-
ness, by ensuring maximum utilisation of the country’s water terminals. The concept paper submitted to government was drawn up by government’s representatives including three from the Maritime Administration (MARAD), one from the Ministry of Trade and one from the Ministry of Finance. They identified the shallow depth of the Demerara channel as having a negative impact on maritime commerce in Guyana, to the extent that the volume of cargo being moved per vessel call has been declining significantly.

Shipping Assn. sees budgeted dredging of Demerara river channel as highly welcome development
By Clifford Stanley
THE Shipping Association of Guyana (SAG) has described the $100M allocated in the 2014 budget to advance the required technical and other assessments which support preparatory works for capital dredging of the mouth of the Demerara River as a highly welcome development. SAG President Desmond Sears said yesterday that the Association views this development as an unambiguous sign of Government’s commitment to engage in port activity and development. He said the upgrade was an absolute necessity, especially because Georgetown is the hub of all import and export activities. “Over the past two years, there has been a lot of agitation done to encourage the Government to be involved in deepening the harbour,” he said. “So this is a first step. “SAG welcomes this initiative in the form of the allocation. We are very happy that we are moving from talk to action,” he concluded. In rationalising the allocation on Monday, Finance Minister Dr. Ashni Singh concurred that there is urgent need for deepening the channel at the mouth of the river. He said:
“The urgent need for capital dredging of the mouth of the Demerara River has been the subject of considerable attention from our Government and from the private sector, affected by its implications for shipping access to the river channel.” The depth of the channel basin, he acknowledged, has been reduced to an unsatisfactory level, which has resulted in limitations in the draft of vessels able to transit the route. The consequence has been reductions in the volume of cargo being moved per vessel, and increased freight costs. Dr Singh disclosed that Government would establish a special-purpose entity to address this matter this year, and would work closely with the private sector during 2014 to attract the necessary financing for commencement and successful execution of this endeavour. Noting yesterday that the Demerara River Channel has, in recent years, been getting increasing shallower due to heavy silting from outflows from the Amazon River, Mr Sears said the SAG would like to see the depth of the channel increased from what currently obtains at between 4.5 and 5 metres to at least 6.9 metres. Moreover, he said, there would have to be
steady maintenance. He said the SAG estimates capital dredging would cost between US$9M and US$10M, but he also said there were financial institutions that loan monies for port development at low interest rates. Those monies, he said, could be recouped through a port development surcharge. He said this was one model which could be pursued, since the charges would be offset by the savings to importers and exporters resulting from the increased efficiency of the port. “With a deeper channel, vessels will be able to bring in more containers at the same cost to the importer. Similarly, vessels leaving with exports will be able to take out more containers in one shipment,” he disclosed. “There will be better value for exports going out, and lower costs for imports coming in”, he said, as he stressed that such a situation would yield rich dividends, and bolster the national economy. He also added that the dredging would lead to more ships coming in. “Ship owners would not have to fear that their ships will run aground, or be damaged, or that they will be stranded for hours waiting for the tide,” he said.

Gov’t continues to back long-term $6B provision viability of sugar industry - makes in Budget 2014
GOVERNMENT’S commitment to the sugar industry has never been in doubt; and while there have been those who believe that the industry is dead, the People’s Progressive Party/Civic Government has remained firm that the industry will recover and play its role in Guyana’s future of sustainable and accelerated growth and development. This unswerving pledge by Government has manifested itself throughout the years in tangible support, and 2014 is no exception. Budget 2014 provides for the advancement of $6B to the Guyana Sugar Corporation (GuySuCo,) to help the industry reverse its fortune and to preserve the jobs of the industry’s 18,000 workers. The provision will in addition redound to the benefit of an additional 120,000 people directly and indirectly, Minister of Finance Dr Ashni Singh pointed out during his Budget presentation on Monday. In 2013, an amount of $1B was transferred by government to GuySuCo to assist the company in meeting employment and other overhead costs, and the financing requirements of a transformation plan which includes the implementation a critical three-year (2013-2016) Strategic Plan. The previous year, 2012, a provision of $4B was made to GuySuCo.
Over the years, Government’s support to the industry would have seen the injection of over $40 B for the shoring up of its operations. The fact is-the once thriving sugar industry that was the backbone of Guyana’s growth in the early years of Guyana’s independence, was not the industry that the PPP/C Government inherited in 1992. It inherited a dying industry, a broken one in which every aspect, from fields to factories, was in a dismal, dilapidated and neglected state. New circumstances, such as global weather, dwindling labour pool, more expensive equipment and the termination of the European Union sugar quota guaranteeing favourable prices to the industry further exacerbated the problems in the industry. In many countries, these very issues led to the killing of many sugar industries, including, in CARICOM, in St Kitts, Barbados, and Trinidad and Tobago. In other countries, like Jamaica, and Cuba, the governments chose to down-size their industries. The Government of Guyana however, instead of lamenting the changing circumstances and being overwhelmed, chose to help support the industry to rebound, and to this end has been making annual bud-
getary allocations to help support interventions to move the industry into the 21st century, to boldly embrace its challenges and seize opportunities. Government’s focus has been on the mechanisation of the industry and rehabilitation and maintenance of the factories and fields. The expansion and the modernisation of Skeldon Factory is a flagship initiative in this regard. Also included is the billions expended on state-of-the-art equipment to improve value-added products at Blairmont and the Enmore Packaging Plant. The road to the industry’s recovery has not been without setbacks. However, government has remained committed and has ended all efforts to privatise the industry and continues to ignore calls to shut it down. These include a recent call by A Partnership for National Unity (APNU), which was later supported by the Alliance For Change, to shut down the industry. APNU’s careless disregard for the industry and its workers however is nothing new and dates back to the 1980s, when, as the then People’s National Congress, they moved towards the privatisation of the industry. Because of government’s support, sugar has survived and is showing remarkable signs of
recovery, as more estates are meeting their targets and workers are getting extra days pay. During his Budget presentation, Minister Singh noted that the emergence of a revitalised sugar industry is anticipated, with the soon-to-be-appointed
new board of directors and senior management at GuySuCo, and the injection of more innovative thinking into both the strategic and operational challenges that continue to beset the industry, and a more harmonised industrial climate.
The sugar industry is projected to record an improvement of 15.6 percent in output to 215,910 tonnes in 2014. Budget 2014 was presented under the theme “By All Guyanese, a Better Guyana, for all Guyanese.”(GINA)

HIV/AIDS epidemic further reduced in Guyana
THE steady commitment of the health sector and Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) in Guyana in the battle against the HIV/AIDS epidemic has seen a drastic reduction in the dreaded disease. This was revealed on Monday at the Regency Hotel during a discussion meeting on the 2013 Guyana Country Progress Report on HIV/AIDS. Chief Medical Officer
of the Ministry of Health, Dr. Shamdeo Persaud, observed that it was not an easy task to get the information together, but it had to be done. He noted that while Guyana stills stands a little bit ahead of most neighbouring countries, with 1.2% prevalence in the general population, the Caribbean has actually achieved about 1% and Latin American countries 0.5%, there is still
work to do. Dr. Persaud emphasised that screening is vital for intervention and treatment, and that the education of families to understand this by the National Aids Programme Secretariat (NAPS) is to be commended. The opening of the stakeholders’ forum also saw remarks delivered on the state of the HIV/AIDS fight by Civil Society Representative, Desiree
Edghill; and UNAIDS Guyana Country Coordinator, Dr Roberto Brant Campos. The submission of Guyana’s report will be in keeping with the targets set in the 2011 Political Declaration on HIV/AIDS, and is to be presented to the United Nations General Assembly by September 2014. Monday’s meeting was the final in a series of stakeholders’ meetings held to finalise Guyana’s document for submission to the Global UNAIDS Secretariat for the monitoring of targets set in the 2011 Political Declaration on HIV/AIDS. The submission contributes to the UN Secretary General’s report to the General Assembly, as well as the 2013 end of year report on the global AIDS epidemic. The 2011 Political Declaration on HIV/AIDS committed countries to, by 2015, halve sexual transmission of HIV and transmission among intravenous drug users, eliminate mother-to-child transmission, significantly reduce AIDS-related maternal deaths, halve tuberculosis deaths in people living with HIV, and put 15 million people living with the disease on antiretroviral drug therapy. In addition, member states committed to accelerating research and development for a safe, affordable, effective, accessible vaccine and for a cure for HIV, as well as to deploy new biomedical interventions, such as microbicides, HIV treatment prophylaxis and early treatment as prevention as soon as they are validated. Moreover, countries are expected to report annually on progress towards
– will be stated in Guyana’s submission to UN
these aims. NAPS Programme Director, Dr Shanti Singh, said the only way to address the existing challenges is to strengthen education programmes throughout the society, even at the level of the workplace, among key target populations and even among health care workers. She also pointed to the fact of the consequences of stigma and discrimination which are many. Dr. Singh explained that the whole concept of treatment and prevention is one that speaks to having persons who are HIV positive being able to access treatment to lower or suppress their viral-load to a point where HIV becomes almost non-transmissible. She added that the national fight against the disease is likely to be severely hampered since the continuance of stigma and discrimination is likely to see infected persons being unwilling to access treatment programmes. “The meeting was one in a series of many stakeholder meetings which saw the crafting of many, many drafts before we got to this first draft that we are disseminating here today,” said Dr Singh. Meanwhile, Dr Campos observed that in 2013, it was highlighted that the end of AIDS is possible, and this was deter-
mined as a scientific possibility. He urged that Guyana continue the fight with this aim in mind. The Health Ministry observed World AIDS Day in 2012, under the theme “Getting to Zero”, meaning “Zero new infections, zero discrimination, zero AIDS related deaths.” The country’s HIV fight began in the late 1980s as a daunting task, as quick mobilisation of the international partners, health services and NGO’s, saw the recognition for immediate action. The answer to this call to action showed results, leaving several areas of focus for Guyana. Firstly, Guyana intends to report the elimination of mother to child transmission in 2015. The tireless work and drive in this area by health personnel and others will ensure that no babies are born HIV infected, an investment in the future. Secondly, persons living with HIV continue to access high quality services and high quality anti-retroviral medication, which has resulted in persons living longer and healthier lives, and fewer deaths related to AIDS. Thirdly, new infections have continued to be reduced among the population as efforts are intensified in targeting the population at higher risk for HIV. The fourth point was that stigma to HIV is less than before. (GINA)

By Michel Outridge THE Guyana Police Force (GPF) yesterday held the closing ceremony for the first phase of training for its SWAT (Special Weapons and Tactics) team at the Police Officers Training Centre, Eve Leary, Georgetown. Minister of Home Affairs, Clement Rohee during his feature address said that in the modernisation of the GPF, the SWAT team is a major contributing factor because the unit will be filling a vacuum with its establishment. He said further that the SWAT unit is trained to save lives as every human being has the fundamental right to life and that is the mantra of this elite team which has completed intense basic training. The Home Affairs Minister noted that the occasion yesterday was a very historic one in light of the great expectations of the public regarding the SWAT team’s role in maintaining law and order in the interest of the public safety of taxpayers.
Commissioner of Police Leroy Brumell during his feature address yesterday The minister pointed out that in Monday’s national budget presentation in Parliament by Minister of Finance Dr. Ashni Singh, a $19 billion allocation was made to the security sector and there is provision for the requisite resources for the SWAT team. Meanwhile, in observing that the SWAT team is a component of the GPF, Rohee condemned the ongoing ‘bashing’ of law enforcement by sections of the media, which he said is quite uncalled for and unwarranted although they are open to constructive criticisms. He highlighted the government’s satisfaction with the formation of the SWAT team which is now poised to move to the next level following the successful completion of the first phase of training. He noted also that the MOHA is in support of the SWAT team which is geared to uphold the basic human rights of every individual and without doubt they will perform creditably because their tenure is secure. Meanwhile, lead trainer Dallas Stidd, in giving a course overview, said that the journey of the SWAT team was not easy but the group that remained successfully completed the first phase. MINIMAL INJURIES AND LOSS OF LIVES Stidd explained that the group of men selected for the SWAT team received training in several areas in which they must save lives, while dominating any situation and eliminating any threat with minimal injuries and loss of lives. The lead trainer stated that the team is now equipped with the ‘know how’ of SWAT operations and in August this year the second phase will be completed, and he thanked the men for choosing a career in law enforcement. Director of The Emergence Group (TEG) of the United States, Dan Waddington said that the SWAT training was tailored to suit the GPF which has a five-year plan for its upgrade. Waddington stated that the SWAT team is a specialised group who have special skills and tactics to embrace any situation and they have developed the capacity to act accordingly. Assistant Commissioner of Police (Administration) Balram Persaud and Assistant Superintendent L. Withrite also made brief remarks at the function.

12th Pakaraima Mountain Safari billed from April 12th to 20th By Rebecca Ganesh-Ally
THE 12th Pakaraima Mountain Safari was launched last Friday by Minister of Tourism (ag), Mr Irfaan Ali and the 2014 Safari from April 12th to the 20th is expected to have more than 40 vehicles participating. There are also plans to increase the participation of locals and promote Amerindian villages and community-based tourism. This year’s safari is dubbed “an adventure of a lifetime” and is part of the ministry’s ‘Drive Guyana Imitative’ which is one of the most adventurous journeys across Guyana. The aim is to have a convoy of 40 vehicles, inclusive of motorbikes and ATVs, and participation will include persons from Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago, Suriname, Brazil and Venezuela. According to Mr. Frank Singh, organiser of the safari, “this year a new Pakaraima Mountain Safari Club will be launched as efforts are afoot to make the event more organised. Those desirous of joining the club will have to pay an annual fee of $25,000. Singh told reporters “already 10 vehicles have registered with April 02 being the final day for inspections of vehicles which will cover between 529 and 600 miles during this year’s safari and there are quite a few requirements to which the vehicles have to adhere. Details on these requirements can be uplifted from the Guyana Tourism Authority (GTA) office.
- dubbed “an adventure of a lifetime”
Lethem, Region 9, affording participants both the option of returning to Georgetown for the Easter Monday celebrations or remaining in Lethem for the Rodeo. CHARTER FLIGHTS There are also plans in place for persons who may want to join the safari after it has set out on its journey with scheduled flights by Air Services Limited (ASL) and charter flights. Guyoil Castrol Brand is one of the major sponsors and has yet again indicated they will be providing fuel as well as oil and other products to assist in making this year’s Safari a
success. Mr Leonard Khan, Castrol Brand Manager Guyana, said, “every year the company looks forward to supporting the safari because we are afforded the opportunity to give back to our drivers since they would have been utilising our products over the years and we also get an opportunity to support the Ministry of Tourism in its drive to build our tourism package for our country and lastly to have proof that the Castrol brand is the life of the engine.” Also sponsoring the event this year is the Guyana Telephone and Telegraph Company (GT&T), which will be outfitting the entire team, Marketing & Distribution, and Mekdeci Machinery and Construction (MMC).
PARTICIPATION OF LOCALS Minister Ali excitingly said, “The difference with this year’s event is to ensure a wide participation of locals in the event. As such the GTA will be providing a 4×4 truck for 30 persons, a small fee will be attached but we have not yet made that public.” He said “GTA and the ministry have discussed with Fly Jamaica to make packages available for the Jamaicans who may want to participate in this year’s safari and they have signalled their support.” Ali was particularly passionate about the fact that the event will significantly promote Amerindian villages and Guyana’s very own community-based tourism. Participants will be provided with a list of items to be sold on the route. The event is also set to coincide with the Rodeo celebration in

US$1.5M agreement signed for Solid Waste Management Project THE Ministry of Local Government and Regional Development Tuesday signed a US$1.5M agreement with the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) for the Guyana Solid Waste Management Project. The three-component project is being funded by the India/ Brazil/ South Africa (IBSA) Trust Fund, but is being implemented by the UNDP. It is aimed at the strengthening of Solid Waste Management in Guyana. It will see the rehabilitation of the six municipal markets in Georgetown, Anna Regina, Rose-
hall, Linden, Corriverton and New Amsterdam. It will also see the placement of washroom facilities at the newly constructed market tarmacs to further facilitate and encourage vendors to utilise them for vending purposes rather than occupying the road corners and pavements. Minister of Local Government and Regional Development, Norman Whittaker highlighted that solid waste became a huge problem after the development of road side vending. The project also has a public awareness component, which will seek to encourage and educate

citizens on environmental friendly practices relating to solid waste management. This will be done through a variety of means, including ads, flyers, brochures and other such attributes. Two compactor trucks and semi excavators will also be purchased to aid in garbage collection and dumping at the Haags Bosch landfill site aback of Eccles. The minister also noted that under this project, a board will be developed to oversee the project.
This board will consist of eight representatives from the ministries including Health, Agriculture and Finance. Among the gathering at the ceremony were Indian High Commissioner to Guyana (ag) Mr Tirath Singh; Brazil’s Ambassador to Guyana Luiz Guilberto Seixas De Andrade; UNDP’s Resident Coordinator for Guyana Khadija Musa; and Permanent Secretary of the Ministry Collin Croal, among other staff members of the Ministry and the UNDP.

CARICOM reiterates call for end to US embargo on Cuba - reaffirms its unwavering support of the island GUYANA and Cuba have enjoyed close collaboration on health, education, culture and sports since the establishment of diplomatic ties in December 1972, and Guyana’s position on the United States (US)’ decades-old economic and financial embargo on Cuba remains unchanged. The position of the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) also remains the same, with the Secretary-General Irwin LaRocque as recent as Tuesday reiterating the regional body’s call for the US to end its embargo on Cuba. LaRocque was at the time speaking at the presentation of letters of accreditation by Cuba’s plenipotentiary representative to CARICOM, Julio César González Marchante, at the CARICOM headquarters, Turkeyen, Georgetown. The Secretary-General said, “Excellency, CARICOM knows well the value of unity on the international front, given that co-ordination of foreign policy is one SECRETARY-GENERAL, of the pillars of our integraIRWIN LAROCQUE tion movement. “We have, as a bloc, joined with like-minded States to both advance and protect our interests, and support causes and initiatives of priority concern to us. This is why we have consistently supported United Nations resolutions aimed at ending the US embargo on Cuba, and will continue to do so.” Noting that Cuba has, time and again, demonstrated its unwavering support of the Caribbean Community, hence the latter’s reciprocal consistent call for the removal of the US embargo on Cuba, Ambassador LaRocque told the new envoy: “Ambassador, the four CARICOM countries that in 1972 broke the diplomatic embargo on Cuba in this hemisphere and Cuba’s active CUBAN AMBASSADOR involvement and recent chairJULIO CESAR GONZALEZ manship of the Community of MARCHANTE Latin American and Caribbean States (CELAC) is evidence of the significant evolution of your country’s diplomatic role within the Americas. “On behalf of the Caribbean Community, I congratulate Cuba on its successful pro-tempore Chairmanship of CELAC, which saw several issues of importance to CARICOM being addressed at the Summit in Havana last January. “These included recognising the special circumstances of small developing middle-income countries; Reparations for Native Genocide and Slavery; the role of Information and Communication Technology in Development; climate change and disaster preparedness, to name a few. All of these are topics actively being pursued on the Community’s programme of work.” He also lauded Cuba’s calls for inclusiveness, when considering issues related to the UN Post-2015 Development Agenda. “The Caribbean Community is in full support of that call, and it is my hope that we all take an active role in this global dialogue which will decide the future, beyond the global development compact represented by the Millennium Development Goals. We must ensure that our Region’s interests are adequately and effectively addressed,” he said. Established in 1973, the regional body has become an important platform for its 15 members to promote regional cooperation, and CARICOM-Cuba joint initiatives have caused the countries to grow closer, and the Region to become more integrated.

and a mixed jury in the Demerara Assizes heard yesterday that murder accused Tiffany Clarke had told the police that her deceased girlfriend Sonobia James was ‘bored accidentally’. Detective Corporal Shamkin Miller, testifying in the Dragon Night Club murder trial, said the accused alleged in a caution statement that her friend, who ‘got bored with the knife’, was hurt accidentally. He said that in her statement, which the accused had written herself, she claimed that Sonobia was aggressive that night, but added, “I pulled out da knife, and she accidentally get bored by de knife.” After defence counsel, G e o rg e T h o m a s h a d s u ggested to the corporal that the accused, being attacked by an aggressor, might have been acting in self-defence, the witness hesitantly said he could not agree or disagree with the suggestion, since there was no supporting evidence available. Noting that Sonobia James died on February 26, 2011, and her close friend, Tiffany Clarke of Georgetown, is facing trial for her murder, counsel got the witness to say that, apart from the accused, there was no ‘eyesee’ witness to say that he or she had witnessed the crime or had seen from where the knife had come. Counsel also suggested that the accused was not given anything to eat, and was told that she would not be charged. Miss Dhanika Singh is prosecuting as the trial continues today.
Aries March 21 - April 19
You might not realise it at first, but whenever you’re in a group of people today, laughing and having a good time, you are actually creating something -- energy, strong support and friendship. Right now, you’ll find that group settings are a great source of productivity, even if the group is a chatty and relaxed one. So try to be as collaborative as possible. Even if it’s just you and one other person, you’ll get way more done than you would get done by yourself.
Taurus April 20 - May 20
Some weird behaviour that has been going on in your social circle right now might be meant to get a rise out of you -- and you simply can’t ignore it anymore. Give it some of your attention today, and push back when the comments get too pushy or provocative. Set aside time early in the day to start the conversations you need to have. Be bold and honest -- get to the bottom of things as quickly as possible. You will be very relieved when you do.
Gemini May 21 - June 21
New people can add vitality and energy to your life, but they can also distract you from other important things. There are many work or school issues that need your full attention right now. Be careful about accepting too many invitations or going out on too many dates -- you might not have as much free time as you think you do, and it would be a real shame to start something you can’t follow through with.
Cancer June 22 - July 22
Just as one bad apple can spoil the whole barrel, one bad idea (if left unchecked) can ruin a healthy team dynamic. So watch out for unusual, untested theories today. You have to be diligent in your professional role and stay focused on the greater good. Don’t let peer pressure, fancy titles or outright bullying intimidate you into going along with the crowd if you know that the crowd is going in the wrong direction.
Leo July 23 - August 22
Someone you know who has a huge ego is going to get knocked down a peg or two today -- and you are going to find the spectacle exceedingly entertaining. But seeing another person humbled should not make you gloat. You can be proud of being a bit wiser than certain people -- but if you get too cocky about it, you’re sure to end up making a fool of yourself, too! Humility makes wise people like you seem even wiser.
Virgo August 23 - September 22
If you don’t have anything to look forward to right now, then make something to look forward to -- you need to remind yourself that you’re in charge of your life. It’s time to stop waiting for other people to make things happen! Reorganise your day -- do your morning routine in the afternoon for a while, and see how that feels. You’ll be surprised at how a slight change in your schedule can energise you.
Libra September 23 - October 22
Someone you know very well could be working too hard at having a good time. This person wants to be the life of the party but is perhaps losing sight of what ‘fun’ really means. Try to schedule some time for just the two of you -- create a relaxed situation that will encourage him or her to talk about what’s going on. Your listening skills are needed in this situation, so don’t feel obligated to provide answers. Just offer a sympathetic ear.
Scorpio October 23 - November 21
Change affects different people in different ways. Expect your reaction to a major transition to be unlike anyone else’s. You have always been open to new experiences, and right now you are very eager to see things get mixed up in your life. This is not the case for everyone close to you, though -- and you must be sensitive to this fact. When the change happens, ask people what their feelings are, and work with them until everyone is on the same page.
Sagittarius November 22 - December 21
The give and take of ideas is not always an effortless experience -- your ego can get involved, and trying to ‘win’ a debate can distort the exchange. Whenever you share ideas, you need to focus solely on accurately conveying what you think, not on proving that you’re the only person who’s ‘right.’ And you definitely can’t make things personal. If a debate gets too heated today, you should be prepared to agree to disagree, and just walk away before things go too far.
Capricorn December 22 - January 19
You can never be sure what the future will hold -- but you should still try to plan for it. To some extent, you can make your future happen the way you want it to. Today, try to lay the foundation for a few important things you hope to do someday -- whether that means requesting vacation time from work, upping the ante on your retirement savings or figuring out the best time of year for your dream wedding.
Aquarius January 20 - February 18
The fact that you’ll have a lot of high energy today will do more than fuel your own productivity -- it could make some inspiring changes within your group of friends. In all your activities, your enthusiasm will bubble up from deep inside you without any effort on your part -- and this enthusiasm will be contagious. Without realising it, you’ll show people options they’ve never considered before. If they decide to follow you, welcome them warmly and lead them fearlessly.
Pisces February 19 - March 20
If you have a somewhat busy day today, make an effort to get things done as soon as you can -- you will need some free time in the afternoon so you can daydream about your future. Sound silly to schedule fantasy time? It’s not -- in fact, it’s just as important as a doctor’s appointment or a staff meeting. Your imagination requires maintenance, and you need to get some imagining done so you can recognise a dream coming true when it happens.

Dolphin and Lodge advance to Milo/Petra U20 semifinals By Calvin Roberts DOLPHIN Secondary and Lodge Secondary Schools booked their respective spots in the semifinals of the second Milo-sponsored, Petra Organisation-organised Under-20 Schools Football Championships, following their quarterfinal victories at the Georgetown Football Club ground yesterday. In the first game, Dolphin played and defeated their fellow Charlestown-based opponents, Charlestown Secondary School, 2-0, in the opening game, while Shemar Smith scored a brace which guided Lodge to a 3-0 win over giant-killers Queen’s College in the feature encounter.
… two more quarterfinals to be played today
A partisan crowd was on hand to witness the opening game between Charlestown and Dolphin and it was the former who took control early when their skipper Omari James made a break for his opponent’s goal area, only to be thwarted by the defence. At the other end of the field, Dolphin’s Job Caesar’s through ball intended for Dakhawn Matthews, was intercepted by Charlestown’s Aroydy Branford, who is known mostly for his exploits as a hockey player with Hikers Hockey Club. At lemon-time, the scoreline remained unchanged, but it was Dolphin who took the lead in the 49th minute of the 70-minute contest, when Lenroy Forde beat Charlestown custodian Marvin Carter to his
right with a well-placed free kick taken from just outside the 18-yard box. Try as they may, Charlestown who are the defending Scotiabank/Pepsi Football Academy champions, failed to snare the equalizer. In their attempt to do so, with several of their players including Carter, playing high, gifted the second goal away to their opponents, one minute before full time. Matthews, who was enjoying a wonderful afternoon in the field, was given a gem of a pass by Caesar but lost same to a lurking Carter, who played it back to his defence player Jaleel Evans. However, in his attempt to clear the ball, Evans did not see Matthews within his radar, so the nippy striker stole same
and calmly placed it between the legs of an advancing Carter, much to the delight of his teammates and to the detriment of his opponents. In the second game, Smith found the net in the 37th and 69th minutes of play which, together with Jarrel Grannum’s 48th minute strike, guided Lodge to the win over Queen’s College and a place in Saturday’s final four to be contested at the Ministry of Education ground. The action will continue at the same venue today with two more quarterfinals. Defending champions St George’s will play Bishops’ High from 16:00hrs, followed by the Queenstown versus Christ Church matchup that kicks off at 17:30hrs.
Lumumba bemoans treatment to Alpha players while in ... From Backpage who accompanied the team to Jamaica, they left Guyana on March 18 and played Trinidad and Tobago on March 21 then on March 23 they defeated Harbour View of Jamaica. They will next play Haiti’s top club Valencia on April 18 and should they come out victorious, they will automatically qualify for the final making Alpha United the first Guyanese club to meet a CONCACAF final play-off. Ninvalle explained that if Alpha United lose against Valencia, they would have to face Water House of Jamaica and another team whose name he

discover their punishments. “Personal safety is something you can’t take lightly,” declared Shirley. “I have come here without the blessing of my family – they are not pleased about me coming (to talk about the whistle-blowing). And there are other things that have happened to me personally.” A delegation from the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) completed a second visit to Jamaica recently, following up on last year’s audit of their programme. Both WADA and Shirley say they are encouraged by progress made since her revelations, which led to all 12 members of JADCO’S board resigning. “They are almost starting from scratch,” Shirley said. “You have a new board. All testing people are new. All educational people are new. I genuinely believe they are going to make an effort.”
could not remember at the time yesterday to qualify for the final round. Lumumba, in addressing members of the media yesterday at the Waterchris Hotel, said Alpha United were in a situation where they were in a foreign country and the host country wanted their teams to win at all cost so they tried to gain a psychological advantage by not providing adequate and well prepared meals for the visitors. According to Lumumba, Alpha United’s players as well as those from the Trinidad and Tobago Defence Force teams were given one slice of bread each every morning of their stay cheese was non-existent and we had to quarrel to get sausage.” Lubumba stated adding, “I had to make other arrangements for my players to get a proper breakfast and lunch.” Tobago Defence Force used their ties with the Jamaican Defence Force to get proper meals during their stay on the Island.
“It was worse than jail food Lumumba declared,” adding “it was a wicked attempt to win the game off the field and the CFRU should look into it. Asked if Alpha United have filed a complaint with the CFU, Lumumba answered in the affirmative. Head coach Wayne `Wiggy’ Dover said it was the worse situation he has ever seen in his coaching career. Dover said despite the treatment meted out to the team, his aim is to win the championship and become the Caribbean’s number one club team. He said beating Valencia is of utmost importance since if they win, they will have a better opportunity of being crowned Caribbean champions. At the national level, Lumumba said if Alpha United win the CONCACAF Club Tournament and the Guyana Football Federation put the right team together, there is no reason why Guyana cannot become the number one team in the Caribbean.

Bayern crowned champions of Germany for 24th time B AY E R N M u n i c h w e r e crowned champions of Germany for a 24th time with a record seven games to spare after victory at Hertha Berlin. Midfielder Toni Kroos set them on their way, finishing from 14 yards after Thomas Muller’s cross. Mario Gotze made it 2-0 with a header from Bastian Schweinsteiger’s cross, before Adrian Ramos’s penalty reduced the deficit. But Franck Ribery’s lob sparked wild celebrations among Bayern’s fans. Guardiola has enjoyed many momentous moments during his managerial career. But steering Bayern to a runaway success over their domestic rivals will feature highly on the 43-year-old’s
Bayern Munich celebrate their victory at Hertha Berlin.
England ease past India ENGLAND responded to defeat in their opening match with a five-wicket win over India at the Women’s World Twenty20 in Bangladesh. Sarah Taylor top-scored for England with 28 before Heather Knight and Jenny Gunn took them over the line. England go on to face Bangladesh (March 28) and Sri Lanka (March 30) as they attempt to qualify for the semi-finals. West Indies earlier enjoyed a comfortable win over Bangladesh as the hosts fell well short of their total. The Caribbean side top Group B with maximum points from their two games, having beaten England by nine runs in
their opener. With the top two from Group A and Group B reaching the semi-finals, England enhanced their chances with a superb performance in the field against India. After electing to bat first, India were restricted to 95-9 by Charlotte Edwards’ side, with Anya Shrubsole’s four overs bringing her three wickets for six runs. Gunn also took three wickets, conceding just 15 runs from her four overs. England’s reply began quickly with 10 runs off the first over before Edwards and Tammy Beaumont fell in quick succession to give India hope.
But Taylor’s third-wicket partnership with Lydia Greenway put on 31 to move England past 50 before she was caught and bowled by Poonam Yadav. Greenway (26) and Natalie Sciver (13) retained England’s control before Knight (six) and Gunn (five) saw their team to victory with 11 balls left. “It was a must-win game and the girls responded brilliantly, led by Anye in the bowling and fielding,” said Edwards. “The bowling was outstanding, but the fielding for me was the thing we really needed to up and I think we did that with some good catches taken. “The batting is slow and steady at the moment. We’re
Sehwag hits ton to seal win over champions INDIA’S Virender Sehwag condemned Durham to defeat in the county season curtain-raiser in Abu Dhabi with a superb 88-ball century for the MCC. The 35-year-old hit 18 fours and a six in his 109 as the MCC cruised to 225-4 to win by six wickets. He shared a fourth-wicket stand of 105 with Nottinghamshire’s Samit Patel before falling to Jamie Harrison. Patel was 48 not out when a delivery from Harrison ran away for four byes to bring the match to an end. Sehwag last played international cricket just over a year ago, but showed he is still a batsman to be feared when in the mood by striking three fours in the day’s opening over from seamer
Virender Sehwag Harrison. Although Mark Stoneman’s 115 on the third day had given Durham hope, their largely inexperienced attack was unable to stem the flow of runs from
the MCC captain. His half-century took only 47 deliveries and by lunch he was only five runs short of three figures, England Test hopeful Scott Borthwick having taken the only wicket to fall during the first session when he claimed a return catch from Kent’s Daniel Bell-Drummond, who made 27. Sehwag’s hundred arrived shortly after the resumption with a second four in three balls off Harrison, but the bowler gained a small measure of revenge when he was caught by Paul Coughlin. Sri Lankan Prasanna Jayawardene made an unbeaten six after joining Patel for the final rites, before the game ended from the final ball of the day’s 31st over. (BBC Sport)

curriculum vitae, along with his three La Liga titles and two Champions League successes at Barcelona. The Spaniard, in his first season in charge of Munich, celebrated with his players on the Olympic Stadium pitch afterwards. But Guardiola’s attention will already have turned to next week’s Champions League quarterfinal with Manchester United. Having secured the third piece of silverware of his short reign to go with the UEFA Super Cup and FIFA Club World Cup, Guardiola can now focus all his efforts on winning the European Cup Hertha went the same way as Bayern’s previous 18 Bundesliga opponents. This was their 52nd league game without defeat, while they have won 10 consecutive away matches in the league. The old record was nine - set by them last season. Kroos slotted home his second league goal of the campaign after the home defence had failed to deal with Muller’s sixth-minute cross. Eight minutes later it was 2-0, Gotze scoring Bayern’s 78th league goal with a wellplaced header following Schweinsteiger’s cross In front of Germany man-
ager Joachim Low, Muller was denied his 13th league goal by the bar shortly before the interval. Hertha goalkeeper Thomas Kraft then used his leg to block Croatia striker Mario Mandzukic’s goal-bound shot, before the hosts reduced the deficit from the penalty spot. Adrian Ramos picked himself up after being fouled by Rafinha to make it 2-1 in the 66th minute. But Bayern were not finished, Ribery’s 79th-minute finish from a tight angle securing the victory that sent his side 25 points clear at the top with seven matches remaining. Bayern Munich manager Pep Guardiola: “I’m pleased we’ve done it. Another trophy for this club is important. “We’ll eat and celebrate together because when you have a little time to spare you ought to enjoy it. “Many, many thanks to the club for the opportunity to be here and to coach these outstanding players. “We played really well for 30 minutes, we were dynamic but kept it simple and used the whole of the pitch. “We controlled the game but forgot to attack at times.

Bajan centurions praise help of mentor BRIDGETOWN, Barbados Two young national cricketers emphasised the importance of support and mentorship, acknowledging the role of former Barbados captain Carlisle Best in their success against Trinidad and Tobago at Kensington Oval last weekend. When Ashley Nurse completed his maiden first-class century on Saturday, a knock in which he remained unbeaten on 130, he acknowledged the contribution of Best, a former West Indies batsman and Caribbean Broadcasting Corporation commentator, by pointing his raised bat in the direction of the media centre. “I want to thank him for talking to me and Carlos through the innings,” Nurse told MIDWEEKSPORT following the match in which he also captured six wickets and took four catches, including one off his

Yadram to lead Demerara in GCB/Igloo U-15 Inter-county NATIONAL Under-15 opening batsman and skipper Bhaskar Yadram will lead Demerara for the upcoming Guyana Cricket Board/Igloo Ice Cream Under-15 Inter-county two-day competition which will bowl off on Sunday, March 30 at Everest Cricket Club and Demerara Cricket Club grounds respectively. Prior to the naming of the Demerara squad by their selectors, the young Demerara team were involved in a two-day practice match last weekend at the DCC ground, to further prepare them for the challenge of defending their Inter-county championships. From a group of 26 players, the match saw Yadram XI play Stephen Wilson XI and, batting first, Yadram’s XI made 185 all out in 40.3 overs, with Yadram leading the way from the front, hitting 10 fours in his 80. He got support from Sagar Hetheramani (33) and Ashmead Nedd (23) against the bowling of Wilson, Ganesh Jitlall and
Bhaskar Yadram Junior Phillips who took two wickets each for 20, 23 and 34 runs respectively. In their turn at the wicket, Wilson’s XI did not shine with the bat as they did with the ball, as they were bundled out for 102 in 44.2 overs, giving Yadram’s XI a lead of 83 runs. Christopher Campbell and Mark Ramsammy top-scored with 22 runs each while extras contributed 14, with Mark Baptiste (3-12), Hetheramani (2-11) and Nedd (2-23) doing the damage with the ball for Yadram’s XI who piled on 183 runs for eight wickets in their second innings, giving Wilson’s XI a target of 266 for victory.

Kurt Lovell led the way with 44 and got support from Yadram 35, Nedd (24), Joshua Persaud 24 and Hetheramani (22), with Kenchandra Hardyal being the best bowler for the Wilson-led XI claiming 2 for 18. Wilson’s XI were restricted to 122 for 7, 144 runs short of their target when the umpires called off the match at 16:15hrs, despite 37 from Alphius Bookie, 26 from Mark Ramsammy and 20 from Robin Williams as Nedd grabbed 3 for 23 and Pradesh Balkissoon 2 for 15. From the match, the Demerara team was selected and reads: Bhaskar Yadram (captain), Paul Thomas, Alphius Bookie, Joshua Persaud, Kurt Lovell, Ganesh Jitlall, Ramdeo Basdeo, Ashmead Nedd, Sagar Hetheramani, Bhojnarine Singh, Colin Barlow, Mark Baptise, Pradesh Balkissoon and Anthony Antonio.

own bowling. “It’s nice to see a legend in cricket in Barbados cheer you on and help you to keep focus. I raised my bat to him yesterday but I just want to make it official,” Nurse said. Carlos Brathwaite, who made 109 and with Nurse put on 190 runs for the eighth wicket, was also highly appreciative of the support offered by Best. “When I first came out to bat he was basically saying, be supportive of Shane (Dowrich), get through the evening and then he really came into full flow yesterday when we came back out, myself and Shane. “After Shane got out he was even more vocal when Ashley
came in. He basically told Ashley to play the supporting role for (me). “After the start that Ashley had and the momentum that he had, then he quickly told me, well, you know it’s your time to support and he basically walked us through both of our innings, giving each one of us support from either end,” Brathwaite said of Best, who shouted his comments from the area just underneath the media centre, located at the southern end of the ground. Best, speaking after the comments from Nurse and Brathwaite, was deeply moved by the appreciation shown by the two young cricketers.
“It just shows that the right messaging system, the right message alerts are needed,” Best said. “It was not only about beating Trinidad and Tobago that I was thinking about, but helping players to manage their abilities which allow them to produce and achieve high performance targets,” Best explained. The former West Indies batsman said he had developed a batting psychology programme and a performance management system. “I am sure that I could be of use not only to the Barbados team, but also the West Indies team,” said Best.

Leewards drop five players ahead of 4-Day fifth round ST JOHN’S, Antigua (CMC) - Leeward Island selectors say they have made “sweeping changes” as they attempt to improving their team’s position heading into the fifth round of matches in the Regional Four-Day Tournament this weekend. They have dropped five players - four Antiguans – Sylvester Joseph, Mali Richards, Justin Athanaze and Hayden Walsh Jr – along with Anguilla’s Lyndel Richardson ahead of their next match against Windward Islands at the Grenada National Stadium starting tomorrow. Their replacements are Antigua’s Orlando Peters, Montserrat’s Quinton Boatswain and Jaison Peters, Nevis’ Javier Liburd and Anguilla’s Yannick Leonard. “The last two games we played we didn’t really play particularly well, especially against Trinidad, and a few guys didn’t really perform the way that we, as selectors, think they ought to and we think that we have to give someone else an opportunity to prove his skills,” said Ridley Jacobs, coach of Leewards. “In our bowling at times
Sylvester Joseph we fell apart and I think that we need players to come there and be consistent and put the ball in the right areas for a long period of time so that the captain can be more comfortable.” Of the three matches played, Leewards Islands have won one and lost the other two and are lowly placed on 22 points, five points clear of Guyana . Guyana have played four matches, losing three and drawing the other. “We need guys to bat and score runs because we haven’t been getting that consistently,” said Jacobs, a former West Indies wicketkeeper. “So we are looking at consistency in the team”.
The Leewards suffered a crushing 107-run defeat to Trinidad and Tobago in third round action over a week ago. Jacobs said that victory against Windwards this weekend is crucial for Leeward Islands to stay in the competition. “We’re basically trying to win all of our games (from here on) and this one in particular because we played against them last year but we didn’t play very well, and it is very important that this time around we go out there and give 100 per cent and really put the ball in the right areas and bat for long periods of time,” he said. “Some of the teams have already played four games and we have played three. So it’s important that from here on we win all of our games and once we do that we stand a chance of getting into the four and then hopefully we can do better than we did last year.” Following their clash against Windward Islands, Leewards will tackle Guyana in a game starting April 4 at Sir Vivian Richards Cricket Grounds before Barbados on April 11 at the same venue.

On Tuesday last at a simple presentation ceremony held in the Grace Kennedy Remittance Services (GKRS) Water Street boardroom, six more cricketers, namely, Daniel Lewis, Akshay Homraj Shimar Flats, Kevelon Anderson, Plafianna Millington and Shebika Gabjani were presented with a quantity of equipment to aid their development through the same programme. According to Secretary/ CEO of the RHTY&SC, Hilbert Foster, the company has been supporting the initiative since 2009 and this year they have injected in excess of $500 000 worth of cricket gear into the programme, with each player receiving a bat, batting pads and gloves, helmet, gear bag and a set of uniform. “We at the management level of the club strongly believe in the development of youths and
as such, great effort is made to develop our cricketers at all levels, be it educational, personal or on the cricket field. “We want our cricketers to be positive role models to every youth they meet and also to be perfect ambassadors for every team they are given the opportunity to represent,” said Foster who added that all the beneficiaries of this year’s programme have excelled in their sporting endeavours over the past years. “Your contribution has enabled Motie to represent the West Indies Under-19 (team) while it has also played a major role in ensuring that Pereira, Lloydel Lewis, Daniel Lewis, Millington and Austin played for Guyana. Motie and Pereira have also played for the senior Berbice team.” “This year’s investment is extra special because of the involvement of two young, promising female cricketers who are following in the footsteps of our national Sportswoman-of-the-Year 2013, Shemaine Campbelle,” Foster related. He said the young cricketers of the county have benefited tremendously under the programme, noting that the RHTY&SC is grateful for Western Union’s continued involvement. Speaking on behalf of

Quintyne spins Windies Women to 36- run win over Bangladesh
SYLHET, Bangladesh (CMC) - West Indies Women swept aside hosts Bangladesh by 36 runs to win their second match in the ICC T20 World Cup at Sylhet Stadium here yesterday. The 18-year old leg-break bowler Shaquana Quintyne grabbed three wickets to inflict a top order submission that severely restricted the hosts who imploded for 79, on the hunt for 116 set by West Indies. Quintyne returned impressive figures of three wickets for five runs from three overs which included a maiden and received support from Tremayne Smartt and Anisa Mohammed who picked up two for nine and two for 22 respectively. The teenager, who also scored 11 and was voted playerof-the-match, knocked back the stumps of two frontline batsmen - opener Ayasha Rahman for 10 and Fargana Hogue for 2 - to leave Bangladesh scrambling for momentum. But middle order batter Rumana Ahmed top-scored with 26 to lead a fightback that injected a measure of
Shaquana Quintyne stability into Bangladesh’s innings. In the process, Ahmed added 28 for the 5th wicket with Nuzhat Tasnia before another batting collapse ensued and the match swung decisively in favour of the visitors. In the space of four balls Tasnia, who scored 6, was bowled by Anisa Mohammed while Quintyne ended the reign of Ahmed who was caught by Smartt. The Caribbean women asserted themselves ruthlessly by removing the last four wickets
for just five runs to secure a comfortable win with 15 balls remaining. Earlier, West Indies, who had won the toss and elected to bat, were jolted by early strikes from Salma Khatun and Fahima Khatun. Salma claimed opener Kycia Knight lbw off the second ball of the innings for a duck while Fahima removed the stumps of Shaquana Quintyne for 11 and trapped Kyshona Knight lbw also for 11, as the West Indies plummeted to 33 for three.

Whistle-blower claims she has been `blacklisted’ in Jamaica LONDON, England (CMC) -The whistle-blower credited with exposing deficiencies in Jamaica’s dope testing says she has been branded a ‘Judas’ and a ‘traitor’ to her country and has been forced to relocate because of the backlash against her. Renee-Anne Shirley claimed she has been “blacklisted” because of her actions, saying she is “ostracised in the eyes of the entirety of Jamaica”. The former executive director of JADCO, the Jamaican Anti-Doping Commission, last year disclosed that only a single out-of-competition test had been conducted between March and July before the London Olympics. “It is with trepidation people come forward,” said Shirley, at the Tackling Doping in Sport conference at Wembley.
