Greenidge underscores major problems with PNCR’s internal system –amid widespread allegations of elections’ rigging and electoral fraud
– calls for Oscar Clarke to be replaced EXECUTIVE member of the People’s National Congress Reform (PNCR), Mr Carl Greenidge, has made clear that he will not participate in any upcoming party elections under the current leadership because he has widely shared concerns over internal party systems. Amidst widespread allegations of elections’ rigging and electoral fraud, Brigadier (rtd.) David Granger has again assumed party leadership, being unopposed in this respect. At conclusion of the 18th Biennial Congress of the PNCR Party on Sunday, Granger was re-elected to serve as Party Leader, after the withdrawal of Region 10 Regional Democratic Coun-

He added that in the event of there being evidence to support the many claims, “We will investigate the matter…but] we cannot proceed on the basis of these allegations.” MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS However, Greenidge contends that the incidents Turn to page 8

Police investigating Congress Place shooting - unconfirmed reports suggest Granger’s bodyguard ‘panicked’ during the chaos and fired a shot
By Leroy Smith CRIME Chief Mr. Leslie James has confirmed that the Guyana Police Force has launched an investigation into the shooting incident that occurred at Congress Place on Sunday during the final day of the PNCR’s 18th Biennial Congress that sent supporters and delegates scampering for cover amid the chaos. James said the Police Force will be treating the incident with the seriousness it warrants, as it would any other shooting. He told the Chronicle that checks will also be made to ascertain the identity of the man who fired the shot, and whether he is a license firearm holder. Several unconfirmed reports, including from PNCR members who attended the Congress, indicate that the shooter is a member of PNCR Leader David Granger’s security detail. The police seem to be hunting for the man (the shooter) since, according to the Crime Chief, the police
are in possession of ‘an image’ which they are working with. Checks have also been made at several places for the suspected shooter. However, it is understood that the police have not been able to get any ‘proper’ information from the party administration, as Congress Place and the Office of the Leader of the Opposition are not cooperating with the police on the matter. Speaking with the Guyana Chronicle yesterday morning, a source close to the Congress and who was present when the shot was fired, said there was absolutely no need for the firing of the gun and that it was done because the firearm holder “panicked”. This publication was told that in the first place, the bodyguard was not even supposed to be present at the location where he was when the shooting incident occurred. The delegate said that the man was, however, placed at the location in an effort to prevent certain delegates
to the Congress from voting. After his aim was noticed by persons, they became very rowdy and began pushing which caused a barricade to fall. It was at the fall of the barricade that the gunshot went off. During this period, it was revealed that PNCR leader David Granger and other party officials were locked in a meeting. And according to information received, the gunshot was heard and despite that and the fact that several military personnel trained in the use of firearm and what gunshots sound like, none of them ventured out of the meeting to investigate the development. The man who allegedly fired the gunshot, this publication was told, is not Mr. Granger’s usual bodyguard (close man) who is often seen around the PNCR leader at public engagements. The ‘shooter’ who fired the gun, it is alleged, would usually perform general security duties for Mr. Granger and
would work between the Office of the Leader of the Opposition and Congress Place, Sophia. Based on the utterances of the source who witnessed the entire ordeal, the ‘bodyguard’ whipped out the firearm from behind him, fired the shot and then kept the weapon in his hands for almost ten minutes before concealing it again. The discharge of the firearm sent delegates running; however, no one was injured. The PNC/R delegates had gathered at Congress Place, Sophia, to vote in nominated individuals into key leadership positions within the party. The Guyana Chronicle was informed by inside
sources that the bodyguard of the party’s incumbent leader, Brigadier (Rtd.) David Granger, was the one who fired the shot just after noon, as the voting got underway. Another source added the gunshot was considered “necessary” to temper the behaviour of some of the delegates. At a press conference late Sunday evening, party Chairman Basil Williams stated that the person who fired the shot is unknown, but is believed to be a member of the Returning Officer’s team and not involved in the party’s administrative matters. Meanwhile, this newspaper spoke to several Members of Parliament (MPs)
who contend that the wanton discharge of a firearm has left them worried for their safety in the National Assembly, as Granger’s bodyguard accompanies him to the sittings. Attempts to contact the security personnel at the National Assembly to query if the main Opposition leader’s bodyguard has his firearm on his person and is required to lodge the weapon before proceeding up to the National Assembly’s Chambers proved futile. Additionally, according to Guyana’s laws, depending on the circumstances surrounding the discharge of a firearm, the licence to carry the weapon can be revoked.

Gaza City and Eshkol hit by MH17 jet ‘downed by missile shrapnel,’ deadly explosions says Ukraine GAZA and southern Israel have seen an upsurge in violence despite a plea by the UN secretary general for a cessation of hostilities. Explosions in Gaza City reportedly killed 10 people, including children. Palestinian militant group Hamas said it had carried out a mortar attack that reportedly killed four civilians inside Israel near the Gaza border. And Israel said five Hamas militants were shot dead after entering an Israeli village from Gaza. Earlier, UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon urged an immediate halt to the violence in Gaza, saying the Palestinian territory was in a “critical condition”. “In the name of humanity, the violence must stop,” he told reporters. Israel launched an offensive against Hamas in Gaza three weeks ago after a surge in rocket fire. Before Monday, more than 1,030 Palestinians, mostly civilians, 43 Israeli soldiers and three civilians
More than 100,000 Palestinians have been displaced from their homes
in Israeli had been killed. At least 10 people - eight of them children - were killed in Monday afternoon’s blasts in Gaza City, Palestinian health officials said. Palestinian officials say the 10 were killed by Israeli missile strikes, but Israel says the explosions were caused by rockets misfired by “terrorists”. Reports on Israeli public
radio and Channel 10 television said four civilians were killed and another 10 people injured when a mortar shell hit the Eshkol district. The Israeli military said the five militants who died had entered Israel via a tunnel from Gaza and opened fire on Israeli troops, who returned fire. There was chaos, confusion, and grief as the latest casualties of this conflict were rushed into Gaza’s main hospital. Among the victims were children, caught up in a conflict they cannot possibly understand. They had been playing outside during a lull

in the fighting. One man told me he was at home when he heard a huge explosion. He rushed outside and the street was full of bodies. Hamas says the children were hit by an Israeli strike. But Israel denies this - saying the blast was caused by a misfired Palestinian rocket. The attack punctured what had been a day of relative calm in Gaza. Today was the start of a three-day religious festival to mark the end of Ramadan. Some Gazans prayed in mosques damaged by the fighting. You could see children playing in the park on swings. Eid al-Fitr is supposed to be a time of joy and celebration. But for the moment there is only sorrow and anger in Gaza.

(BBC News) SECURITY officials in Ukraine say the downed Malaysia Airlines jet in eastern Ukraine suffered an explosive loss of pressure after it was punctured by shrapnel from a missile. They say the information came from the plane’s flight data recorders, which are being analysed by British experts. However, it remains unclear who fired a missile, with pro-Russia rebels and Ukraine blaming each other. Many of the 298 people killed on board flight MH17 were from the Netherlands. Dutch investigators leading the inquiry into the crash have refused to comment on the Ukrainian claims. Heavy fighting has prevented an international police force composing of Dutch and Australian officers from reaching the crash site for a second consecutive day. ‘Sick and tired’ Ukraine’s army said on
Monday it had managed to capture two towns near the wreckage in its bid to win back territory from the hands of the rebels. “We are sick and tired of being interrupted by gunfights, despite the fact that we have agreed that there should be a ceasefire,” said Alexander Hug, the deputy head of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) team in Ukraine. They had hoped to secure the site so that the wreckage and human remains can be examined by international crash experts. Most of the bodies have been removed, many of them repatriated to the Netherlands. Ukrainian security spokesman Andrei Lysenko told reporters on Monday that the plane suffered “massive explosive decompression” after it was hit by fragments he said came from a missile.
Torrential rain and flash flooding cause travel chaos (BBC News) HOMES were evacuated and people left stranded in their cars as lightning, hail, heavy rain and flash flooding hit east and south-east England. The freak weather brought roads and railway services to a standstill in parts of Sussex, Essex and London. More than half the average total rain for England in July fell in an hour in some areas, the Met Office said. London Fire Brigade said it had to help people trapped in their cars across the capital. Network Rail said most train services were returning to normal following earlier delays and cancellations caused by flooding and an electricity substation being struck by lightning.

in the station subway. In London, the Metropolitan Line is running with severe delays because of flooding. Flights to and from Gatwick Airport were also delayed by the weather. The town of Great Dunmow in Essex was inundated by 43mm (1.7in) of rain within an hour, while residents in Isfield, Sussex, were hit with 37mm (1.5in) of rain. A road in the village of Thaxted, Essex collapsed and several homes were left flooded. Five people in the village were taken to safety by fire crews. In north-west London, two women had to be rescued from a car stranded in flash floods outside South Ruislip station. London Fire Brigade said it had to deal with two stranded cars on Eastcote Road in Harrow.

PM to Japan: Help T&T with arms treaty (Trinidad Guardian) VISA free travel, an embassy in Tokyo, Japan, and an open invitation to set up tech companies in T&T were some of the gifts Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar showered on visiting Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe yesterday. In exchange, she sought Japan’s support to set up the secretariat of the Arms Trade Treaty in T&T, which seeks to set up international standards for the movement of conven-
tional arms and ammunition across borders. Both Japan and T&T signed the treaty in 2013. These were some of the highlights Sunday after Abe touched down at Piarco International Airport for an official two-day visit. A statement from the Office of the Prime Minister said bi-lateral discussions were held at the Diplomatic Centre in St Ann’s, Port-ofSpain, shortly after Abe’s arrival to T&T. At the airport, the Japanese Prime
Minister inspected a guard of honour before heading to the Diplomatic Centre. The Japanese Prime Minister, is accompanied by his wife, Akie, on a tour which includes meeting with Latin American and Caribbean leaders. Speaking at the T&T Guardian following the bi-lateral talks, Foreign Affairs Minister Winston Dookeran says T&T and Japan are to consider establishing embassies in their respective countries.
Malala: T&T reminds me of home (Trinidad Express) VISITING Pakistani education activist Malala Yousafzai, 17, said her ultimate goal was to ensure education was “100 per cent free”. She also paid kudos to the warmth of the people of Trinidad and Tobago and lauded the beauty of the local landscape, which reminded her of her native Swat Valley, an administrative district in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province in Pakistan. Malala made the comments at the VIP lounge at
Piarco International Airport after arriving in Trinidad Sunday afternoon. Among those present were Tertiary Education Minister Fazal Karim and his wife Pastor Joy Karim, former T&T high commissioner to the United Kingdom Garvin Nicholas, and chairman of the Board of Governors of the University of Trinidad and Tobago (UTT) Curtis Manchoon. Her visit coincides with UTT’s tenth anniversary
celebrations. Malala was accompanied by her father Ziauddin and mother Toorpekai and brothers Atal Khan and Khushal Khan, along with chairman of The Malala Fund, Eason Jordan. Malala, who now lives in Birmingham, England, is in T&T to continue her activism with two speaking engagements on Wednesday and Thursday at the National Academy for the Performing Arts (NAPA) in Port of Spain.

Eight shot, four fatally in St Catherine in two days (JAMAICA Observer) GUNMEN went on a killing spree in sections of St Catherine over the weekend, shooting a total of eight people, four fatally, in two separate incidents between Saturday and Sunday. The series of attacks has awakened shock and fear in the central parish, which has been quiet in
recent months. In the latest incident, police say Tevin ‘Gaga’ Pryce, 20, and Dwayne Hall, 26, were executed by armed men in a deadly daylight attack in Gordon Pen, a community on the outskirts of Spanish Town. Four others were injured in that incident. According to the police,
a group of people were at a house on Gordon Pen Boulevard around 11:30 am when armed men invaded. Pryce, who was the intended target of the attack, was shot multiple times and is said to have died on the spot. “Based on reports he was shot close to 10 times,” a police source said.

In which direction will the new PNC Leadership go? A countrywide determination to restore democracy in Guyana gave rise to a national avalanche that eventually swept the PNC out of the corridors of power and installed, for the first time in decades, a constitutionally-elected government in October of 1992. This was indeed the dawn of a new era and a new broom that gradually, miraculously, transformed Guyana into an unparalleled dynamic of social development and economic growth. This growth and development, however, are under threat once again by the very people who took Guyana and Guyanese to subterranean levels of international growth indices before a PPP/C Govern-
ment, under the guidance of this country’s foremost freedom fighter and the Father of the Nation, Dr. Cheddi Jagan, and successive PPP/C presidents, especially the ‘Architect of Modern Guyana’ and crafter of The Poverty Reduction Strategy, the National Development Strategy, the LCDS, et al, Dr. Bharrat Jagdeo; and which is currently being continued by His Excellency President Donald Ramotar. However, the PNC, even reconfigured as APNU, joined by the mini AFC, has continued its anti-developmental strategies, causing retrogression in and impeding many areas where transformational projects could have tremendously benefited the Guyanese people, despite President
Ramotar’s invitations and encouragement to Opposition parties to have tripartite talks with the ultimate intention of building trust and eventuating on consensual positions on nation-building thrusts and activities. Governing the nation during the last two decades and creating a growth pattern with a consistent upward trajectory has not been an easy proposition for the PPP/C, because the PNC, in its new avatar of APNU and its ally the AFC, have driven and precipitated a continuum of destructive actions that caused much angst and retrogression in the fortunes of this nation, with many major developmental and job and wealth-creational initiatives being stymied
and/or stopped cold by the combined Opposition. But the country descended into a new low with the new configuration in the National Assembly, which gave the combined Opposition a majority of one seat, acquired with six votes, and today the ugly head of the Opposition is reared to strike once again into the heart of the nation. Non-compliance with Financial Action Task Force (FATF) regulations regarding countering of money laundering and terrorism in the world would visit recalcitrant nation states with such punitive ‘blacklisting’ that would take them into semblances of Guyana under PNC administration. Unfortunately for
Guyana, this nation is being held to ransom by a vengeful combined Opposition, which refuses to support the vital passage of the Anti-Money Laundering and Countering the Financing of Terrorism (AML/CFT) Bill. Their power-drunk and vengeful grandstanding has reached a level where their conditions for support of this vital bill has put this nation between the devil and the deep blue sea – that the Government accepts their recommendations for amendments, which will revert Guyana to the days of the Draconian rule of the PNC; or else non-support of
the bill with a consequential blacklisting by FATF, which will transpose this nation again to a socio-economic landscape and ethos of want, hunger and hopelessness. Would the “new” leadership caucus of the PNC decide to work with the PPP/C administration to take the nation forward; or would it be the ‘same old; same old’ situation, with the nation being collateral damage in the joint Opposition’s juggling/struggling for power and self-aggrandisement? Only time will tell; and the nation waits.
Fasting purifies the soul and heals the world EID Mubarak greetings to Guyana and the world. Eid Ul Fitr is the marvellous day of peace, love, goodwill, charity, and harmony. It is the day of celebration in purification and without fanfare, but a celebration that is worthy for the ‘faster’. The faster is now the embodiment of perfection, for, as the prophets of religions did in ancient times, he fasted for an entire month. He, like the prophets, is embedded with a spiritual dynamo as those of yore. Prophet Abraham fasted and got enlightenment and closeness (Taqwa) with Allah (God Almighty), as did Moses who did marvellous miracles with the permission of God; Jesus Christ imbibed the power of healing after fasting on the Mount and denying Satan. Muhammad derived his spiritual powers to travel to God and speak to him directly, received healing powers and the Al-Quran (Revelations from the Creator). Peace and blessings of God be upon them all.
The fasting Muslims are like those in power of goodness, closeness with God, and if they ask Allah for permission, they can also imbibe the power of healing humanity of soul and physical troubles. Even the earth and universe can receive divine healing from the Fasting Muslims after the Ramadan. For they drank of the cup of righteousness. The Holy Quran proclaims: Fasting is prescribed for you as it was prescribed for those before you, that you may achieve Taqwa (Oneness with God, Liberation from ignorance, wisdom and understanding of the mysteries of the majestic universe). While Fasting is a Fard (necessity), one of the Pillars of Islam, it does not say compulsion, instead it says: ‘Prescription!’ Being the Master Doctor of humanity and the Universe, the Chief Healer, the Creator, He, Allah (God Almighty), as the Chief Doctor, prescribes Fasting because it is good for the body. It helps
to regulate the blood flow, clean the blood of platelets and fats which are killers to man. It helps the heart by controlling pressure on it and the stomach by eating less and small amounts. It eliminates the build-up of carcinogens in the lungs and body. It eliminates the build-up of waste in colon and intestines which accumulated over the year. The urinary tract is cleansed along with the bladder of sedimentation. The kidneys are in better health. But also the Muslim faster could not quarrel, say vexatious and obnoxious things; could not raise his voice except in proclamation of God’s wisdom. He is to continue life with these positives in his heart. The prescription brings with it the giving of the compulsory tax, Zakaat, for the development of the Islamic Community and education with propagation. But voluntary charity is the mark of refinement for the Muslim soul as well. He is encouraged
to give to the non-muslims, and those who just ask, or whom one notices is in need. This is Khairaat (voluntary charity), which is the mark of distinction, of peace and goodwill; the hallmark of universal brotherhood and love. Muslims are to protect and care for all humanity and the entire world according to the Teaching of Quran and our Holy Prophet. But more so, we are encouraged to give food and nourishment to those in need in Islam, even the Eid Sadakat, so the poor Muslims could have a pleasant meal, and to share with the non-Muslims for universal love and goodwill. Our Quran, and our Holy Prophet teach us not only for the Ramadan but for all times; a Muslim cannot go to bed knowing his neighbour is hungry. This is the explicit instruction for love of humanity, it does not say a fellow Muslim, but his neighbour, anyone in his community. It
means, even an animal could be a neighbour, a bird, dog; once it can breathe it is a neighbour. It is no easy task to have to conduct ones daily duties in occupation and business in western society (in Arabia, commerce switches to night), and then fulfill the five daily prayers and more, with the late night prayers called taraweeh (late evening prayers after the fast is broken), and then early morning, day and night recital of the Quran and the voluntary morning prayers between 2-5am, and again the morning prayers at the breaking of the dawn. This is worship in motion, in physical exercises of the body and mind, with little or no food, and little sleep. In the end, when the time comes for the ending of Ramadan, the Muslims cry, feel pain as the great spiritual journey to God and Spiritual Enlightenment, has ended. But with the great feelings of uplift as he is now closer to
God, a content and humble being worshipping the Lord God, and respecting more the hungry and those in poverty for he volunteered hunger; to taste it, he becomes more spiritually awakened, but he empathises with the needy, those who are hungry, and becomes one who continues to worship, serve, being more charitable. Enjoy this day fellow Muslims, you followed the Prescription of Allah to the letter, and you are now one in God’s closeness (Taqwa), a healer of mankind and the earth. Eid Mubarak to our entire Guyana! Let us continue to spread the love, peace, goodwill and harmony amongst the peoples of our great country, and continue to live in dignity and love.

GUYANA CHRONICLE Tuesday July 29, 2014
Collective responsibility IT would be the apt starting point to a public letter to say that with the understanding of the concept “collective responsibility” with regards to being a member of a national political party, I therefore wish to apologise from the bottom of my heart to the Nation and any member of my party, that I or any other member, may have hurt or disappointed during the 18th Biennial Congress. Anything I said or did, I did out of love and with the best interest of my Party in mind. I also wish to state emphatically that I am even more resolved after the 18th Biennial Congress that David Granger is the best-suited individual to lead the PNCR, the APNU and be Commander in Chief. He is the only leader in this new era of politics to which members of another party and another race leave their respective party and publicly align themselves to him. He has thus far displayed great leadership and character in the face of great tribulation and testing. Much has been said about the actions and reactions of our brothers and sisters in Region 10 but not a single condemnation has emanated from the lips of David Granger or the leadership of the PNCR, none will come from me either. In fact David has done the opposite. He has extended an olive branch to people of Region 10 and their leaders in an effort to do a forensic analysis of the concerns of the Region and iron out the kinks. Our brothers and sisters of Region 10 are passionate, as we all are, about the direction of our Country and Party and this must be recognised. We must however, never forget to temper such passion with prudence, which will be the thrust of this letter. I wish to also state emphatically that during the 18th Biennial
Congress of the People’s National Congress Reform, no rigging took place and there were no irregularities or voter fraud. The process was transparent and robust, even I as a member of the Central Executive and a Member of Parliament was subjected to scrutiny. The voting was smoother than one conducted by GECOM. Further I wish to posit, that the People’s National Congress Reform is the only political party in Guyana who have repeatedly afforded its members the dignity and respect of voting for all of their leaders. This symbolises our readiness to serve the entire Guyanese population and to protect the democratic processes they deserve. The leaders of the People’s Progressive Party/Civic (PPP/C) know fully well that if they put such power in the hand of their ordinary members then the vast majority of those leaders will be kicked out of the hierarchy of the PPP/C. Now to responsibilities: as a member of a political party each member is yoked to another member as a continuous team of oxen plowing the national fields for the national yield. Leaders are also oxen yoked to individual members, they aren’t the farmers driving the team. The farmer driving the team may be likened to the goals and ideals and objects of the party. If we the oxen, leaders and members alike pull in opposite directions we either break the yoke or we break our necks. In either scenario the fields will be left to grass and thorns and the children starve. We the members of the People’s National Congress Reform must always be cognisant that we have a collective responsibility first to our Nation, then the Party and finally ourselves to do what is right and principled and in the best interest of our beloved
Party - the People’s National Congress Reform. We the members of the People’s National Congress Reform must always remember that our actions or inactions impact the livelihood, views and morale of every single Guyanese man, woman, boy and girl here in the Motherland and in the Diaspora. Our actions or inactions ultimately have a bearing on whether the Romesh rises his cutlass or whether Grace immunises a babe, whether he/she is confident that he/she will be paid and whether he/ she will be able to make a tangible investment in our country with his/her earnings and whether he/she will allow his/her children to stay and live and enjoy the fruits of his/her hard work. His/her interactions with the members of the Police Force and other public servants, his/her interactions at his/her temple, church or mosque, in his/her village and on his/her cricket/football pitch; are all affected by the actions and inactions of every member of the People’s National Congress Reform. His/her views on the actions of the Government, his/her sympathies to and trust/distrust of other political parties, his/her views of the People’s National Congress Reform and his/ her perceptions of their members and policies and programmes are all intertwined with the actions and inactions of every member of the People’s National Congress Reform. This is the burden we bear as the largest Opposition party in Guyana and as the greatest component in APNU. This is our yoke as a ‘national party’ with representatives from all Ten Administrative Regions from every race, colour and creed, every religion and faith and every ideological persuasion.
I never understood the magnitude of this burden until Sunday and I am equally sure some of my brothers and sisters have not either, hence I write this letter. We cannot speak of breaking up the party, we cannot conveniently quote Ptomely Reid that for “construction there must be destruction”. Yes, we must speak out against injustices and we must never be afraid of having differences in opinion and voicing those opinions without fear or favour but our words and actions must always be guided by our collective responsibility of preserving the health, prosperity and security of our brothers and sisters. Guyana first, then our Party, then our aspirations. We must always yearn for the greater national good. The People’s National Congress Reform that I am a proud member of is not a perfect party but within its core and around its rim we are a family. Even after Mr. Norton would have raised numerous objections during the session I chaired I never once passed him straight before, during or thereafter but always greeted him formally. He even came to me afterwards and said whatever you do ensure no one can find fault in it. I told him thanks for the advice. I ask our members then, how could we break up a party at this critical time in our nation’s history or in our party’s history. Were I Aubrey Norton, there would have been a consensus candidate. Were I Aubrey Norton, there would have been no public protests at Congress Place. Were I Aubrey Norton, my concerns about the integrity of the process would have been fixed by me and my team working with the General Secretary to fix them. Were I Aubrey Norton, I would have gathered the elders of the party and
sought their intervention in resolving these disputes internally and maturely. Were I Aubrey Norton, I would go to the Central Executive and every group that would have me and plead my case to them. For I believe all disputes could be resolved in a respectful and decent manner once the root problems are identified. The Kaieteur News, Demerara Waves, INews, News Source, Stabroek News, Guyana Times and Guyana Chronicle would not have been my first audience. However I am not Aubrey Norton. I am, as they say, a young man, a newcomer and “I ent know nuttin” but I have had good parenting; a wise father and mother who have instilled certain systems and principles within me that I could discern my flaws and the flaws of others and make adjustments. My mind at the time of penning this missive takes me back to the first principle Aubrey Norton shared with me on a trip to Linden in 2009 which was that ‘in politics you must have your own politics’. Aubrey Norton must remember that lesson and remember his politics also. I know he has the good memory to remember the Art of War by Master Sun Tzu, a book given to me by Ronald Austin Snr. “with every good wish”. Aubrey Norton is a war-room/boiler-room General as likened by Master Sun Tzu. His role is not to be the Leader of the army but to manipulate and devise strategies that would help the army win the battle and make the Leader of the army the hero. He must remember that he as a war-room/boiler-room General is equally as responsible as David Granger (who leads the entire army) for a victory or loss. This is the politics Aubrey Norton once practiced with Winston Murray, Carl Grenidge and in Linden during the 2011
Campaign. This is in effect an aspect of collective responsibility, which he should dare not forget. Finally, every voice in Guyana, whether their names are David, Khemraj, Rupert, Moses, Nigel, R a p h a e l , A m n a , Vo l d a , Cathy, Simona, Fredrick, Christopher, C.N., Ralph, Clinton or Mark will tell you quite frankly that the enemy is not the PPP/C but the non-holding of local government elections that stifle our communities, poverty, unemployment and under employment facing our young and industrious Guyanese men and women, corruption and nepotism, low wages and salaries, economic stagnation, murders, robberies, piracies, suicides every societal ill and national cancer that has been allowed to flourish by the programmes and policies and general ineptitude of the PPP/C. That is why the PPP/C must be removed, for with the PPPC at the helm we have nowhere to go but down. There are no rewards for hard work, no national pride, no satisfaction that the Government of the day is looking after our interests the best way they could. We have all had enough! We must all therefore sound our collective voices and let the leadership of AFC and APNU know that we depend on them for a political solution to end racial distrust and forge national unity. They have been given what Rev. Raphael Massiah told me on my 14th birthday- time and opportunity! God has given our leaders in the AFC and APNU this time and this opportunity to bring Guyanese together to heal our land from the sickness of racism and make us whole again, they must seize it. This is our collective responsibility as Guyanese. JAMES A. BOND, M.P.

Guyana, Japan explore investment opportunities PRESIDENT Donald Ramotar has joined other CARICOM Heads of Government in Port-of-Spain, Trinidad and Tobago for a meeting yesterday with Prime Minister of Japan Shinzo Abe. This was the First Summit meeting of CARICOM Heads of State and Government and their Japanese counterpart and took place as the countries are celebrating, in 2014, CARICOM-Japan Friendship Year, to mark 20 years since their first formal engagement in 1993.
According to a statement from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the discussions centred on the vulnerabilities faced by CARICOM members toward achieving sustainable economic growth, strengthening the relations between Japan and CARICOM at the bilateral level and enhancing cooperation at the multilateral level. In his intervention, President Ramotar expressed his appreciation for Prime Minister Abe’s recognition of the developmental challenges of CARICOM Member States
particularly the issue of graduation which has seen those Member States now qualified as middle or high income countries no longer being eligible for concessional loans and grants from international financial institutions. He acknowledged Prime Minister Abe’s stated support to represent the position of CARICOM Member States on this issue in the forums of the developed countries. President Ramotar highlighted financing for devel-
opment as one of the eight Millennium Development Goals that was still to reach its target as very few developed countries had made good on the pledge of 0.7% of GDP towards developmental assistance to vulnerable countries. He requested Prime Minister Abe’s further support in advancing the need for this commitment to be met. With reference to climate change, President Ramotar thanked Prime Minister Abe for his Government’s assistance to CARICOM Member
States in the area of humanitarian responses to natural disasters and in the promotion of measures to address adaptation, mitigation and disaster risk reduction. In their bilateral meeting, the leaders of Guyana and Japan took the opportunity to reiterate their desire to enhance the relations of the two countries. President Ramotar referred to renewable energy, infrastructure and science and technology as areas where Guyana could benefit from Japan’s expertise and assistance. He also
encouraged investment from Japanese companies particularly in the area of extraction of minerals. It was agreed that the two sides would pursue these and other areas of cooperation in the near future. President Ramotar was accompanied by Guyana’s Foreign Minister Carolyn Rodrigues-Birkett, Finance Minister Dr Ashni Singh, and Ambassador Elisabeth Harper, who is the Director General in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Hung jury in Shoala Gilgeous Ex-cop goes on trial for allegedly performing sex act on child murder trial - accused sent back to prison to await new trial
By George Barclay
THE mixed jury trying Paul Lohing for the alleged murder of his girlfriend Shoala Gilgeous, who reportedly died from manual strangulation, yesterday disagreed on a verdict, resulting in Lohing, who had pleaded not guilty to the charge, again being remanded to prison to await a new trial at a future session of the Demerara Assizes. The prosecution’s case was based on circumstantial evidence, and although no
one actually saw Lohing committing the crime, one witness testified to hearing noises emanating from the couple’s flat. When she did go to the home, she saw Shoala Gilgeous lying on a bed and she believed that Gilgeous was sleeping. That witness testified that she later learnt that Shoala Gilgeous was in fact dead, and was not sleeping, as she had assumed. Government Forensic Pathologist Dr. Nehaul Singh, who performed the post-mortem examination, disclosed that Gilgeous’s
death had been caused by manual strangulation. After deliberating for three hours yesterday, the jury returned to Madam Justice Diana Insanally for further directions. They later returned with a disagreement in the proportion of nine to three. The judge discharged the jury, and told the accused that he would be remanded to prison to await a new trial at a future session. Murder accused Paul Lohing was defended by Attorney-at-Law Mr. Huckumchand.
FORMER policeman Shawn Edinboro, called ‘Christopher’, appeared yesterday before Justice Rishi Persaud at the Demerara Assizes and pleaded not guilty to having com-
mitted a sex act on a child of tender years on April 22, 2012 at Drysdale Street, Charlestown, Georgetown. A jury has been empanelled to try Shawn Edinboro on the offence.

Greenidge underscores major problems... that marred the 18th Biennial Congress will have an impact on the party’s support base, even as he acknowledged that supporters do return to the party during elections. “It is not going to be as vibrant as it should be,” he declared. This year’s Congress was not the first year the PNCR has had to deal with allegations of ‘rigged’ elections, verbal abuse from top party officials, and problems with the internal party systems. In
2012, several recounts of the ballot delayed the declaration of the new PNCR leader. The results were delayed after claims that the number of votes was higher than that of the registered delegates. The claims were reportedly made by the supporters of Mr Carl Greenidge, who was running against Granger for the second time in four years. At the PNCR Congress in 2010, Granger scraped
passed Greenidge by 279 votes to 264 votes; while another current MP, Basil Williams, secured 88; Dr. Faith Harding 20, and MP James Bond 13 votes. During 2010, there were also accusations of fraud in the party’s internal elections.

General-Secretary, Mr. Oscar Clarke. He said on Sunday, “It is unacceptable that the delegates list is challenged on the morning of the Congress….The problem here (has) to be the Secretariat’s General Secretary, (who) runs such a system.” According to Greenidge, it is of the utmost importance that a party’s internal mechanisms be strong enough not to be marred by the criticisms it has had to
endure over the last three Congresses. “I believe it is time a new General Secretary is appointed…. It is time that proper rules are imposed on the senior staff of the Secretariat…. It is something that needs attention; and clearly, Mr. Granger will have to give it attention,” Greenidge concluded. Greenidge was a former PNC Finance Minister and international civil servant.

Old Kai: Chronicles of Guyana…
Granger caught misleading the media on who exactly fired the gunshot … during PNCR’s mafia-style Congress OLD Kai is amazed at the response provided to the media by PNCR leader David Granger over who exactly fired a gunshot during its farcical voting process on the final day of its congress. It appears no one from the media, during the after-congress press briefing picked up on it, as it would have been an interesting moment to see Granger try to squirm his way out of this gaff. Internet news site, inews, reported that when questioned on the gunshot, Granger confirmed that indeed a shot was fired, “however he could not say who fired the shot, but he is adamant that the person involved is in no way connected to the PNCR.” The million-dollar question then is, if Granger claims that he is not aware of who exactly fired the shot, how is
cluding those who were disfranchised, and verbally and physically abused during the PNCR Congress, will now find it more difficult to trust anything coming from the mouth of David Granger. The situation is made even more embarrassing for Granger when consideration is taken of the fact that an image has been published in the media of a PNCR mem-
Granger confirmed that indeed a shot was fired, “however he could not say who fired the shot, but he is adamant that the person involved is in no way connected to the PNCR.” The million-dollar question then is, if Granger claims that he is not aware of who exactly fired the shot, how is he aware and is confident that the person involved is in no way connected to the PNCR? he aware and is confident that the person involved is in no way connected to the PNCR? To confidently assert that the individual was not associated with the PNCR, logically, you would have had to first identify who the culprit was exactly. Is this not a clear case of dishonesty on the part of the PNCR leader? The public and especially Opposition supporters, in-

ber, attired with his delegate badge and gun in hand at the time the shot was fired. The media, if they are indeed not afraid of the Opposition, should now press Granger and his minions to explain his contradictory statement on the shooter and all this nonsense about launching an investigation to identify the individual. Let me also note that other media sites had reported that the gunman is David Granger’s bodyguard. Then there are some downright ridiculous comments from PNCR members trying to justify the gunshot, as one individual, who is also a Councillor at the M&CC, was quoted in the media as saying the act was necessary so as to bring calm to the ruckus caused by persons turning up to vote only to find out their names had mysteriously vanished from the list. This is complete foolishness, as who in their right mind fires a gunshot to bring calm. Even if we were in the Wild West, such an act would cause widespread panic and pandemonium as was indeed the case at Congress Place. It was nothing but a death threat, intended to send an ominous warning to anyone who dared challenge the internal dictatorship which has taken hold. Let us not forget that it was Aubrey Norton who earlier this year, during an interview with a media house, had indicated that he was receiving death threats from certain individuals from Congress Place against whom he had evidence of corruption. Therefore, it came as no surprise that shortly after the gunshot; Aubrey Norton abruptly gave up on his leadership challenge and left Congress Place with his supporters. If this is the brand of democracy David Granger and his allies are offering their own supporters, we can only imagine what they have in store for all Guyanese at a national level.

Special project to tackle social issues launched in Black Bush Polder - First Lady opens workshop to kickstart initiative By Shirley Thomas THE Sugar Industry Labour Welfare Fund Committee (SILWFC) last Saturday launched a project designed to address social issues troubling the Black Bush Polder community. It is expected that this will form synergies between key stakeholders and the people in order to nip such problems in the bud. The project got underway with a one-day workshop declared open by Guyana’s First Lady, Mrs. Deolatchmee Ramotar who is also Chairperson of the SILWFC, and who was celebrating another milestone that day. At the forum at Mibicuri Secondary School, in Black Bush Polder, about sixty enthusiastic participants from four communities came together with a common resolve to pool efforts
Seated from left at the SILWFC Workshop: First Lady and Chairperson of SILWFC, Mrs. Deolatchmee Ramotar; Dr. Pradeep Balaram; Mr. Jairam Petam and Mr. Bhopal Jhagroo
tified, Dr. Balram said that suicide has had the greatest toll, with several lives being continually snuffed out, and the situation was getting from bad to worse. The most recent case occurred about two weeks ago, when a 20-year-old who has been legally married for the last seven years, and seemed to have been doing well, strangely ended her life by ingesting gramoxone.

and energies to reverse the trend of an upsurge in suicide; alcoholism/substance abuse; domestic violence; school dropouts; and to restore the core values of good parenting. Chief Facilitator was Dr. Pradeep Balram, GuySuCo Medical Officer, who expressed concern at the way such social ills have taken deep root in the Black Bush Polder community and the impact on the people. SUICIDE TOLL Among the issues iden-
Dr. Balram gave an indepth insight into suicide and its inter-relationship with other stress-related conditions such as domestic violence; joblessness; substance abuse/chronic alcoholism, and the debilitating effects of the latter on the human mind and body, which invariably lead to death. OTHER ISSUES Other issues addressed included child labour; empowering of single parents/ youths; upgrading of recre-
ational facilities and marketing of produce. Other speakers included Mr. Jairam Petam, GuySuCo Human Resource Director and Member of SILWFC; Bhopal Jhagroo, Regional Vice Chairman, Region 6; and Mr. Kenneth Joseph, General Secretary of the National Association of Allied and Commercial Employees (NAACIE). The programme was chaired by T. Persaud, Chairman of the Black Bush Polder Neighbourhood Democratic Council (NDC). SOCIETAL VALUES The speakers urged the workshop participants to take the message back to their communities and share it with others who were unable to attend, sensitising them about the role they can play in restoring good societal values. Another aspect of the message is to urge parents to take a stand to ensure that their children attend and complete school, thereby lifting their status in life while making meaningful contributions to society Mr. Bhopal Jhagroo also called on parents to take their children to places of worship, which would instill in them good moral values. He noted the damaging effects suicide was having on the community of Black Bush Polder, and declared that, “To take one’s life is a sin, and we should all be careful about that.” Parents were also sensitised about the negative impact the television and computer can have on the minds of young children, and they were urged to help
the young people in making responsible decisions about the programmes they view. Meanwhile, SILWFC, in an effort to minimise joblessness and to create situations where the people of

Meanwhile, Mrs. Deolatchmee Ramotar, Chairperson of the SILWFC, who is also President of the First Lady’s Foundation, endorsed the sentiments of Dr. Pradeep Balram and other speakers on the issue of school drop outs, suicide, domestic violence and other societal ills being addressed. She has committed to being solidly behind the initiatives tabled to address the problems identified. “As First Lady, I can say that my Foundation believes that it is important that stable and strong families be promoted. My Foundation commits itself to working with the Sugar Industry Labour Welfare Fund Committee.” She said further

Black Bush Polder can feel empowered and good about themselves, mooted the idea of organising training programmes to benefit young people. SOCIAL WORKERS A proposal which won the approval of the SILWFC was for a system to be put in place to have persons identified and trained as social workers who could deal with suicide intervention and other social issues. Immediately four persons were identified who each shared their views on the topic and volunteered to come on board. Eight others (three from each community) will join them. Those identified were Permeshwar Ramcharitar, Seenarine Ramlakhan, Raymon Pearson and Ken-
that even though the quality of lives of the beneficiaries would have changed, there is still much to be done, and assured that “SILWFC is willing to work with you.” Noting that in a world where changes are taking place rapidly, the First Lady referred to the impact of television and computers, adding that the downside could be that our children are now exposed to many negative influences that have an impact on their minds. Without proper surveillance, our youths can be exposed to violence, pornography and the glorification of drug abuse, all of which have a negative influence on the social behaviour of many people, Mrs. Ramotar said. To this end, she called on parents to be mindful of
their parental roles and to offer guidance in relation to which programmes young people are exposed. And touching on the issue of early school drop outs, Mrs. Ramotar said the net result of this is invariably that the persons without a sound education end up having to settle for low-income jobs or are relegated to a life of crime. Here again parents were urged to play their role in offering support to see that children benefit from the educational facilities being provided by the Guyana government countrywide. Meanwhile, she also explored the impact of domestic violence, adding that it is not only limited to spousal abuse or intimate partners violence (IPV) in a relationship, but invariably, the children are affected. “Today, domestic violence is not a private matter between husband and wife, but has major impact on our children. When faced with abuse, the children tend to become violent.” Moreover, she observed that in recent years, domestic violence, alcoholism and drug use, coupled with the everyday pressures of life, often lead to isolation and frustration and even suicide which has risen sharply over the years. “ We h a v e t o b e o u r neighbour’s keepers; we can no longer turn a blind eye since domestic violence can lead to death and children who are exposed to abusive situations tend to become abusers in adult life,” she pointed out. Mrs. Ramotar noted too that Government has built shelters and provides a place where abused persons can go and be able to interact more freely with others and not to be under duress. The idea of a workshop to address the burning question of social issues confronting Black Bush Polder was first mooted last year when SILWFC held a meeting at Hampshire, attended by more than 150 persons drawn from communities spanning from Rose Hall to Skeldon.

PPP to move motion to send Hughes, Ramjattan to Privileges Committee By Vanessa Narine THE People’s Progressive Party (PPP) will be moving a motion to have two Alliance For Change (AFC) Members of Parliament (MPs) -- Mrs. Cathy Hughes and Mr. Khemraj Ramjattan -- appear before a Parliamentary Privileges Committee. The PPP/C intention, according to that party’s General-Secretary Mr Clement Rohee, was communicated to Clerk of the National Assembly, Mr. Sherlock Isaacs, by its Chief Whip, Madam Gail Teixeira. At a news conference held at the PPP’s Freedom House headquarters yesterday, Rohee explained that the move follows the non-response by the Speaker of the National Assembly, Mr. Raphael Trotman, to letters addressing the conflict of interest and pecuniary interests of the two AFC MPs in relation to matters before the National Assembly. “The PPP still awaits some form of communication from the Speaker in response to its letters to him with regard to conflict of interest,” Rohee said, adding that the motion is being moved under Parliamentary Standing Order 32, which addresses the circumstances around which such a motion can be moved. NO STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS The General Secretary pointed out that, regardless of the Speaker’s non-response to the PPPC’s expressed concerns, there are no statutes of limitations which provide for a particu-

lar timeframe within which the issue can be raised. He said, “Mrs. Hughes’s company was hired to handle the Public Relations for Sithe Global, one of the companies working with the Government on the Amaila Falls Hydro Project. Her husband, Mr. Nigel Hughes, was the company secretary of the Amaila Falls Hydro-Project Inc. Neither of these pecuniary interests was voluntarily made public at the time of the debates on the first Hydro-Electric Bill and the Debt Ceiling motion, which were defeated nor; on the second Hydro-Electric Bill, which was passed, and debt ceiling motion which (was) amended by the AFC.” Rohee emphatically stressed that the National Assembly and the public had a right to be informed by Mrs. Hughes of the pecuniary interest that she had in the matter; and she had a duty, under the item of “Personal Explanation” on the Order Paper, at the time of her involvement to disclose details of the benefits from such an engagement. “In the absence of this public disclosure, she should have recused herself from
participation in the vote on both issues,” he said. The same conviction was expressed when the PPP General Secretary addressed the contentious circumstances under which the motion was being moved against Mr. Ramjattan. He said, “Mr. Khemraj Ramjattan’s client, Fedder Lloyd, placed a bid for the tender of the Specialty Hospital in 2012, and Mr. Ramjattan supported in the House the budgetary allocation for the said Hospital. However, in 2013, when his client lost the bid, Mr. Ramjattan voted against the allocations for the said hospital. “Mr. Ramjattan did not publicly declare his pecuniary interest at either time, and is therefore in violation of Standing Order 107, which states that ‘No Member shall appear before the Assembly or any Committee thereof as counsel or solicitor for any party, or in any capacity for which he or she is to receive a fee or reward’. “At no time did Mr. Ramjattan recuse himself from voting on the budgetary allocations for the Specialty Hospital.” Rohee also referred to the AFC’s ties with hotelier Mr. Robert Badal, owner of
PPP officials Mr. Kellawan Lall and Mr. Clement Rohee during yesterday’s press conference at Freedom House the Pegasus Hotel. He said, “The PPP has also taken notice of Mr. Badal’s public declarations that he was a financier of the Alliance For Change at the 2011 General and Regional Elections. “Mr. Badal has publicly opposed the Marriott Hotel, as it will compete with his hotel. It is passing coincidence that Mr. Ramjattan has publicly and consistently opposed and consistently tried to obstruct the Marriott Hotel project. Mr. Ramjattan at no time informed the House of his or his party’s pecuniary interest.” HIGH-CRIME Rohee also highlighted sections of Erskine May’s Parliamentary Practice 23rd edition, which is essentially a rulebook for MPs. He said, “The PPP takes note of the treatment of such transgressions of Members of Parliament in the Erskine May’s 23rd edition, page 132, footnote 4, “the Commons resolved in 1695
Decomposed remains of female…
Some samples to be tested here, others for overseas testing CRIME Chief Leslie James yesterday confirmed that the police will be sending for overseas testing, samples of the de-
composed female body which was discovered last Friday at Turkeyen, East Coast Demerara. He also said that
some of the samples which were collected from the scene would be tested locally. James noted that Guy-
ana enjoys bilateral relations with countries that have the capability to test the remains, and that would be done to deter-
that ‘the offer of money or other advantage to any Member of Parliament for the promoting of any matter whatsoever depending or to be transacted in Parliament is a high crime and a misdemeanor. The PPP has therefore indicated it will move motions in relation to these two AFC Members of Parliament in accordance with SO 32 (2)’.” The PPP General Secretary also expressed hope for the support of the Speaker to allow these matters to be sent to the Committee of Privileges. Section 32 of the Parliamentary Standing Orders states that: “(1) A motion directly concerning the privilege of the Assembly shall take precedence over all other business. (2) Any Member desiring to raise a matter under this Standing Order shall first obtain leave of the Speaker, who will determine whether the Member is entitled to raise the matter as a question of privilege. “(3) If permission is
given by the Speaker under paragraph two (2) of this Standing Order, the Member so permitted may raise it any time after Questions to Ministers, and move that the matter be referred to the Committee of Privileges. “(4) No debate shall ensue on a motion under this Standing Order, but if the Speaker decides that a prima facie case has been made out, he or she shall so state, and refer the matter to the Committee of Privileges. “(5) If during a Sitting of the Assembly a matter suddenly arises which appears to involve the Privileges of the Assembly, and which calls for the immediate intervention of the Assembly, the proceedings may be interrupted, save during the progress of a division by a motion based on such a matter. “(6) No Member moving a matter under this Standing Order may speak for more than fifteen minutes.”
mine the identity of the female. He made it clear that he, and by extension the Police Force, was in no way suggesting that the remains were those of a missing school teacher, because that can be determined only after tests are carried out. Speculations have been rife that the remains which were discovered are that of school teacher Nyozi Goodman, who went missing for three weeks prior to the discovery. So decomposed was
this female’s body that the post-mortem had to be performed at the location of its discovery before being removed by undertakers. The Crime Chief has said that with regard to the missing school t e a c h e r, t h e P o l i c e Force has questioned one person, who was subsequently released. The police, he said, are unable to say if there is any main suspect in relation to the teacher’s disappearance. (Leroy Smith)

Rohee dismisses PNCR allegation of ‘orchestrating’ chaos at Congress - calls for evidence to be produced By Vanessa Narine THE People’s National Congress Reform (PNCR) is blaming the ruling People’s Progressive Party Civic (PPP/C) for the chaos that marred its 18th Biennial Congress, especially the last day on Sunday July 27, 2014. However, General-Secretary of the PPP Mr. Clement Rohee has dismissed the allegations and has dubbed the statements mere political plays which are the norm when things go south for the
PNCR. “I would dismiss it out of hand, the whole issue of the PPP sabotaging the pursuit of the party. Why would an influential and powerful party try to sabotage (the PNCR Congress)? I think that is just politics,” Rohee said. ALLEGATIONS PNCR Chairman Mr. Basil Williams accused the ruling party on Sunday evening for what he described as an “orchestrated” attempt to sabotage the Congress. “It is the
opinion of the leadership of the PNCR that these events were deliberately orchestrated by the PPP/C to sabotage the congress,” Williams said, adding that the PNCR intends to mount an investigation to deal with the “agents” who helped with the PPP/C plan to sabotage the PNCR’s 18th Biennial Congress. PNCR Party Leader Brigadier (rtd) David Granger, when asked by reporters about the evidence of sabotage, said the ruling
party was “certainly interested” in the outcome of the PNC elections at Congress. “That is the evidence that we have,” he said. Granger also referred to the appearance of advertisements in the daily newspapers addressing the party’s Congress. “We had noticed that the PPP/C, or some other agency with the funds to do so, had published whole page advertisements in the newspapers in the run-up to Congress, and there were certain statements that suggested that they were interested in seeing an outcome other than what happened today,” Granger told reporters on Sunday. He also noted that the PPP has “ways and means” of influencing party supporters. “Mr. Joe Harmon was a member of the PNC’s campaign committee; look at him now,” Granger said.
NO EVIDENCE Responding to Granger, Rohee called on the PNCR to provide stronger evidence to back its claim. He acknowledged that, as the ruling party’s main Opposition, the PNCR’s activities are of interest to the PPP/C party, but he said that interest was not to the extent of sabotage. “The PNC has been, for years, a major rival of the PPP politically, so obviously we will have an interest in what they are doing, in the same way they would have an interest in what we are doing,” he said. On the issue of paid advertisements, the General-Secretary made it clear that the PPP did not undertake any such endeavour, and reiterated his challenge for evidence in this regard to be presented. “You bring the evidence to show me that these were ads paid for by the PPP. I don’t know anything about that. Not
my party…I know the PPP didn’t place any ads. The PPP issued a statement, which you probably saw,” he said. As to the pronouncements on the ruling party’s influence over PNCR supporters, Rohee stated that the fact that the PNCR is of the opinion that the PPP/C can influence its membership is “good” news. The General Secretary said, “That is good news! That’s wonderful news! I am happy to hear. I heard him (Granger) say that we would infiltrate provocateur or people like this and make things difficult for the party, but that is a ruse that has always been made whenever they have protests, they would always claim that the PPP infiltrate to cause disturbances and looting and so on. That is nothing new, they always say that.” Several of the disturbances that took place at Congress Place on Sunday, including the discharge of a firearm, are under internal investigation by the PNCR.

– Dr. Ramsammy
NINE individuals have been identified to sit on the Board of Directors of the Guyana Sugar Corporation (GuySuCo), which is expected to be named this week, according to President Donald Ramotar. And Agriculture Minister, Dr. Leslie Ramsammy, stated that two persons are still to confirm their acceptance to sit on the Board. However, he noted that while the Head of State remains engaged with two individuals, it is expected that these talks will not further delay the naming of the Board. Ramsammy added that President of the Guyana Agricultural and General Workers Union (GAWU), Komal
Chand, has formally rejected the Head of State’s offer to sit on the Board. The life of the existing board was extended by six
Minister Dr. Leslie Ramsammy
months to June 30 and the new Board’s appointment was scheduled to come on stream from July 1. Under new management, GuySuCo is expected to lead accelerated progress to ensure the industry’s turnaround. The sugar industry is projected to record an improvement of 15.6 percent in output to 215,910 tonnes in 2014, and a whopping $6B has been allocated to the sector in the 2014 Budget, given the industry’s important role in national development. Among the measures to be undertaken to ensure a turnaround of the industry, which the allocation addresses, are: increased production
and lower cost of production; diversified target markets, and expansion of value-added production.
In 2013, sugar exports accounted for 8.3 percent of total exports valued at US$112.2M, and the indus-
try contributed 3.9 percent of the country’s Gross Domestic Product. (Vanessa Narine)

Police raid thriving ganja business at Stanleytown
GUYANA CHRONICLE Tuesday July 29, 2014
- several plants of varying sizes confiscated, unnamed man arrested
By Leroy Smith ACTING on intelligence received, ‘D’ Division police swooped down on a residence at Stanleytown early yesterday morning, in the process disrupting an ap-
parently lucrative business that grows and sells the illicit drug marijuana (cannabis sativa)to persons within and outside of that West Bank Demerara community. A man whose name has been withheld was arrested
even as the police confiscated several cannabis sativa (marijuana) plants which were at nursery stage and, significantly, removed two marijuana plants measuring approximately four and two feet respectively.
The Guyana Chronicle has been reliably informed by sources close to the investigation that, from time to time, residents in the area would get the smell of weed burning but they were not sure from which direction it was coming. However, after the police had recently been informed about the man’s operation, they surprised him in a move that discovered the plants and led to his prompt arrest. He is currently in police custody assisting with investigations, and is likely to be charged and placed before the courts by tomorrow. In photographs seen by this newspaper, there were two plants set in small paint buckets, while the smaller plants which were now being groomed were set in various containers, including old wash tubs and water bottles. The use of marijuana is being legalised in several
The ganja plants, seeds and other illicit items that were confiscated by the Police parts of the world, and some users/advocates say its use has lots of medicinal value. However, Guyanese policy makers, and more particularly the Government, have made their position very clear in regard to the cultivation and/or use of this plant -- its use will not be legalized just yet; and
until such time as it is legalised, if ever, those found in possession of the substance will have to face the law, since its possession remains an illegal act. Nevertheless there have been several discussions in regard to its legalisation, including several informal debates and discussions.

President calls on Guyanese to help reduce Chikungunya cases By Vanessa Narine PRESIDENT Donald Ramotar on Saturday reiterated the sentiments of Pan-American Health Organisation/ World Health Organisation (PAHO) Representative for the Guyana Country Office, Dr. William Adu-Krow, who was the most recent official to laud local health workers for their efforts to curtail the incidence of Chikungunya in Guyana. And he called on Guyanese to play their role in assisting to reduce the number of Chikungunya cases by controlling the spread of the illness, whose first indigenous transmission in the Americas was confirmed on December 6, 2013. The Chikungunya virus, which is transmitted by the bites of Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus mosquitoes, causes high fever, joint pain, rash, headache, and muscle pain. “I know that they (health workers) are doing a lot of work. I know that the health workers are doing work all over the country…I admire the work they are doing, but a lot of it has to do with our role too,” he said at a press conference on Saturday at
Sate House. According to PAHO, there are three factors for rapid transmission that have also been documented in other countries: 1) It is a new virus in the Americas; 2) Since it is a new virus, defences have not been built against it and
stroyed include: * Avoiding the storage of water in outdoor receptacles (plant pots, bottles, containers that can collect water) to prevent them from becoming mosquito-breeding sites; * Covering domestic water tanks or reservoirs so that

The elimination and control of the mosquito breeding sites reduces the likelihood of the Chikungunya and dengue viruses being transmitted.” INCREASING NUMBERS Guyana, according to PAHO, has an incidence of 2.0 per 100,000 of Guyanese and as at July 25 there were 16 confirmed cases. However, the PAHO Representative for the Guyana Country Office last Tuesday stated that he has information suggesting that Guyana has approximately 60 cases of persons infected with the Chikungunya virus. “Officially I am told that it is still 16, unofficially I am told in confidence that we have about 60 cases and that is because we are not testing everybody,” Dr. Adu-Krow said. Asked to comment on the increasing numbers, the President said the PAHO numbers are not the Ministry of Health’s numbers. He told the Guyana
Chronicle that efforts are ongoing to ensure that the spread of the illness is brought under greater control, including indoor and outdoor fogging.
and symptomatic treatment controls the pain and fever. Once a person has contracted the illness, protective antibodies are developed and, according to the sci-
“We have to see our people take greater interest, given the breeding of mosquitoes. The elimination and control of the mosquito breeding sites reduces the likelihood of the Chikungunya and dengue viruses being transmitted.” - PAHO Additionally, once the illness is suspected, samples are taken and sent to the Caribbean Public Health Agency (CARPHA) in Trinidad and Tobago for confirmation. Cases of Chikungunya virus have been reported in Regions 3, 4, and 5. The disease rarely causes death, but joint pain can last months or even years for some people. Complications are more frequent in children under 1 and in people over 65 years of age and/or with chronic diseases (diabetes, hypertension, etc.). There is no specific treatment or vaccine to prevent infection by this virus
entific evidence available to date, there should be life-long immunity once this happens. The disease was first reported in the Caribbean in December 2013, and has since touched Anguilla, Antigua and Barbuda, British Virgin Islands, Dominica, Dominican Republic, El Salvador, French Guiana, Grenada, Guadeloupe, Guyana, Haiti, Martinique, Puerto Rico, Saint Barthelemy, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Saint Lucia, Saint Martin, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Saint Maarten, Suriname, Turks and Caicos Islands, and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
Works on Windsor Forest pump station progressing
A view of the construction site MINISTER of Agriculture, Dr. Leslie Ramsammy told the Guyana Chronicle Sunday that works on the Windsor Forest pump station, which will house one of the eight fixed site Surendra pumps, is progressing and is expected to be concluded in September. “The work at Windsor Forest is being done by Samaroo Construction, and with that contract there is a lot of work because the pump has to be placed below the ground. After the work is finished, the only thing visible will be a small building,” the Minister explained. In 2012 the contract was signed for the 14 pumps to be supplied by Surendra Engineering Company; six mobile and eight fixed site pumps, but initially the programme consisted of 39 pumps which will be placed across the coastland. However, only 14 are to be supplied by Surendra. The remaining seven fixed site Surendra pumps will be placed at Canal Number One, Rose Hall, Gangaram, Eversham, Number 43 Village, Lima and Paradise. Several of the new pumps are expected to be commissioned over the next few weeks. The US$4M award was given to Surendra Engineering Company after competitive bidding and approval by the National Procurement and Tender Administration Board, Workers on site on Sunday laying the framework for the underground in 2012. The company was not contracted to build the machines, but rather to supply them, fabricate or procure from another firm, for drainage purposes.

Rape accused Mark Forde freed AS is the pattern nowadays, some people who had reported to the police that they were criminally assaulted by others are now telling the courts that they no longer wish to proceed against the accused. Last Friday was no exception when a buxom young woman walked into court, took the Bible and swore that she had made a
particular report to the police that Mark Forde had done certain things to her; consequently he was charged by the police. She told Justice James Bovell-Drakes that she no longer wished to proceed against Forde in relation to that report and that her decision to take this course did not stem from inducement, threats nor payment being
made to her. “I have done so on my own free will,” she said. Because Forde, who earlier had pleaded not guilty to the charge and was under the charge of the jury since then, the judge directed the jury to return a formal verdict of not guilty in his favour. He was subsequently discharged by the judge. (George Barclay)
Man on $40,000 bail for wounding ‘Rasta man’ at Ekereku KARAMCHAND Seetal of Lot 263 Company Road, Buxton, East Coast Demerara appeared yesterday before Chief Magistrate Priya Sewnarine-Beharry and denied that on July 22, at Ekereku Landing
in the Cuyuni River, he unlawfully and maliciously wounded Donald Jackson, also known as ‘Rasta man’. Police Prosecutor Michael Grant did not reveal the prosecution’s facts in relation to the charge, but he did not oppose
bail for this defendant, who has no prior conviction. The unrepresented man was bonded to keep the peace pending the determination of the matter, which was transferred to Kamarang Court for September 14 for report and fixtures; and was placed on $40,000 bail. (Geeta Rampersaud)
67-yr-old security guard on wounding charge SIXTY-seven-year-old security guard Cecil Anderson, of Lot 56 West La Penitence, Georgetown, appeared yesterday before Chief Magistrate Priya Sewnarine-Beharry and pleaded not guilty to unlawfully and maliciously wounding Chandra Sukhram on July 21 at Croal Street, Georgetown.
Ten persons granted a total of $3.9M bail ACTING Chief Justice, Mr. Ian Chang, S.C., on Friday last, granted ten persons bail totalling $3,935,000 pending the hearing of their cases. Following are the offences, offenders and the amount of bail granted each offender: * Possession of narcotics for the purpose of trafficking: Andre Anderson $200,000; Oswald Blackman - $300,000; Delon Welch - $100,000; Jermaine Lowe - $1,500,000; Mark Walleson - 160,000; Godfrey Vyphuis $500,000; Compton Semple - $225,000; Martin Narthe - $750,000 * Felonious wounding: Stefa Leung - $100,000 * Larceny of cattle: Fazal Ali - $100,000
The prosecution’s facts were not related to the court, and the case was transferred before Magistrate Dylon Bess for September 22. The unrepresented An-
derson was placed on his own recognisance, and was bonded to keep the peace pending determination of the matter. (Geeta Rampersaud)

Aries March 21 - April 19 Your subconscious will be quite entertaining today, and it will come up with all sorts of amusing ideas and images without much effort. Having an active inner voice will be a blessing right now, because it will help you stay happy and alert as you carry out all of the day’s mundane responsibilities. Try to take special notice of the people around you -- the people-watching today will be fantastic, and it will also provide new material for the stand up comedian that has taken over your subconscious. Taurus April 20 - May 20 You’ve been hitting it hard for a while now, doing your job and someone else’s too. But now, finally, the recognition you deserve is en route. Don’t worry if it doesn’t happen immediately; it’s in the works. The higher-ups have been watching you, and they’re pleased. Stick out that chest, and be as proud of yourself as others are of you! Oh, and don’t be surprised if your sweetie has a special surprise in store for you too. Gemini May 21 - June 21 If an email correspondence between you and a coworker has gotten a bit tense or catty, it’s time to move this discussion out of the virtual realm and into the real world. If you can’t meet with them face to face, at least pick up the phone and give them a call. It’s important for them to hear the intonation of your voice, but it’s just as important for you to hear their voice. You may have made some assumptions that just aren’t true. Things are not nearly as bad as you think. Cancer June 22 - July 22 It’s time to get social -- at least as much as your schedule allows today! Make connecting with others a priority in your day, and you won’t regret it. Even just asking how someone is today will trigger deeper connections with the people around you -- and that is a nourishing thing for your soul. You don’t have to make any new friends; you just should make people matter more in your life. Leo July 23 - August 22 It’s a good idea to review your budget, because you’ve been paying an expense you should not be paying any longer. This easy trim should not be treated as a cash bonus, however -- take that money you’d otherwise be spending and sock it away in savings! Building up your rainy-day fund should be much higher on your list of priorities now. Sticking to a more modest budget should be easy and painless. Virgo August 23 - September 22 There are many small details you’ll need to pay attention to today if you want to keep things on a positive track at work or at school. Dates, numbers and other types of facts will be tossed around by your group, and it will be in your best interest to write them down and get things organised -- no one else will be paying attention. Pull out your calendar and book those dates, schedule those meetings, and make sure everyone is on the same page at the same time. Libra September 23 - October 22 When you’re working on tasks for other people today, you can’t be too meticulous! Whether you’re just doing someone a favour or taking on a project that has the potential to change your entire career path, you have to be very careful and methodical in your efforts. Don’t go halfway with this -- pull out all the stops, and show them that you are someone they can depend on to get things right the first time. You are poised to impress some very powerful people. Scorpio October 23 - November 21 It’s all about putting out the right kind of energy today -- so be generous and kind, and project the type of person you want others to see you as. Whatever you put out there will eventually come back to you, so go over the top with the things that you offer to other people. Keep it genuine, but don’t be afraid to make big promises. You will be able to do what it takes to make them happen. Positive energy is deep inside you; it’s time to let it shine. Sagittarius November 22 - December 21 Dealing with authority figures may be a difficult challenge for some people right now, but not for you! You can easily handle tricky conversations with the biggest movers and shakers, in part because you know what you’re talking about -- and you know that they know, too! Your confidence will help you cover all the details without worrying that you’re boring them. You know that everything you say is pretty darned interesting to these important folks.
For Tuesday July 29, 2014 -05:00hrs For Wednesday July 30, 2014 -05:30hrs
Capricorn December 22 - January 19 Today’s events will create too many details for most people to handle, but for you it’s a great day for making plans! Your curious brain will flourish under the heavy downpour of dates, times, facts and figures. Embrace all the chaos, and tie up all those loose ends into a beautiful bow. You are entering a time of great organisational skill, when multitasking isn’t just a trait you can put on your resume -- it’s a philosophy you should live by! Aquarius January 20 - February 18 Someone in your group needs a refresher course on what exactly is going on -they’ve been out of the loop for a while now. It’s up to you to cover all the details with them now, so try to take care of that business as early in the day as possible. Don’t adjust your schedule to accommodate theirs. If they need to learn these things, they need to do so when it’s most convenient for you. Pisces February 19 - March 20 You’ll find out the ugly truth about someone when you happen to catch an unedited comment. You don’t like what you hear, and it’s hard to reconcile their statement with how they promote themselves. Ask yourself whom you’re really dealing with right now. It’s time for you to take a step back from the situation you’re in and wait a little bit longer before you commit any more time and energy to someone who, at the very least, can’t be consistently real.

Sankar snares five as Guyana beat Windwards by four wickets By Calvin Roberts FOLLOWING a dismal bowling performance in Guyana’s first round game against the Leeward Islands, leg-spinner Steven Sankar snared 5 for 53 to bowl out Windward Islands for 165, enabling Guyana to complete a hard-fought four-wicket win in their second round West Indies Cricket Board Under-19 fixture at the E v e re s t C r i c k e t C l u b ground, yesterday. Scores in the contest: Windward Islands 139 and 165, Guyana 243 and 64 for 6. Resuming the day on 79 for 4, with skipper Roland Cato on 15 and Anson Latchman 12, the Windward Islands still needed another 25 runs to clear off their firstinnings deficit of 104, after Guyana scored 243 on the back of Shimron Hetmyer’s 125, in reply to their 139. They lost Latchman, who was run-out from wide long on by Ashkay Homraj, looking for a third run off the fourth delivery of the morning, before Cato, who struck both Kemo Paul and Balchand Baldeo for boundaries, added 41 valuable
runs for the sixth wicket with Ryan John. Sankar was introduced from the Carifesta Avenue end after four overs were bowled by Baldeo and bowled unchanged until the lunch break, removing both Cato and Dorian Edward (0) in successive overs, with Cato batting for 107 minutes in which he faced 110 balls and struck five fours in his 46. Ramcharran later removed John, who was caught by a diving Tagenarine Chanderpaul at short mid-wicket for 21 and Sherman Lewis to leave the Windwards on 159 for 9 at lunch, with Deron Hypolite on 20 and Craig Phillip 1. After the break, Guyana closed off the visitors’ innings for 165, when Hypolite was brilliantly caught by substitute fielder Keon Morris at forward short leg, off Sankar for his resilient 20 (67 mins, 53 balls, 2x4), leaving Craig Phillip, who had earlier punched Sankar for four, unbeaten on 7. Ramcharran ended with 3 for 44 in support to Sankar, while Guyana, who needed

62 to complete an outright victory, lost first-innings centurion Shimron Hetmyer, who was caught by Melvin Gordon at midwicket off Phillip, before he had scored, at 3 for 1. This brought skipper Brian Sattaur to the wicket and having failed to trouble the scorers in the first innings, cut loose with a four and six off Shemar Lewis, followed by a hat-trick of fours in Phillip’s second over of the innings, pushing the score to 33 for 1. However, Guyana lost Tagenarine Chanderpaul (10), Sattaur 31 (32 balls, 4x4; 1x6) Kemo Paul (1) and Ramcharran (0) to slip from 48 for 1 to 50 for 5 in the space of 12 balls, which later became 56 for 6 when Baldeo was lbw to Sherman Lewis for 5. A straight drive back past the ankles of Phillip from the bat of Homraj, sealed the win for the home team who ended on 64 for 6, with Homraj on 9 and Savory 1, six minutes before tea even as John (2 for 15) and Lewis (2 for 23) kept their team in the hunt for a come-from-behind victory.

S.Africa secure draw to reclaim top Test ranking COLOMBO, Sri Lanka (Reuters) - South Africa reclaimed top spot in cricket’s Test rankings after grimly hanging on for a draw in the second and final Test against Sri Lanka yesterday to win the series 1-0. It was South Africa’s first series win under new captain Hashim Amla and only their second series victory in Sri Lanka in 21 years, and sees them overtake Australia as the world’s number one team. Set 369 for victory South Africa, who started the day at 38-1, finished on 159 for eight with Vernon Philander holding firm with an unbeaten 27. That was despite a marathon bowling effort from spinners Rangana Herath and Dilruwan Perera who sent down 89 overs between them, including 54 maidens, to claim all eight South African wickets. Sri Lanka had to fight not only against the strong defence put up by South Africa but also the weather that interrupted play three times

However, the sun came out strongly and Sri Lanka grabbed the wicket of JP Duminy in the first over of the final hour when Perera trapped him lbw for three. Herath picked up his 18th five-wicket bag when
he had Dale Steyn caught behind by Niroshan Dickwella for six. There was no further joy for the hosts, however, as Philander and Imran Tahir played out the remaining 27 minutes. Amla had led South Africa’s resistance when he scored a fighting 25 off 159
balls before falling to Perera in the fourth over after tea when he edged an attempted drive to Mahela Jayawardene. Herath also found the outside edge of Faf du Plessis’ bat on 10 to give Jayawardene his 200th Test catch. Herath had also dis-
missed Quinton de Kock for 37 and AB de Villiers for 12 in the afternoon session, but the rain delays, which saw only 30 minutes’ play in the morning session, hindered Sri Lanka’s push to level the series. South Africa had lost the number one ranking to Australia in May.
Bell recaptures form as England punish India … Bell ton takes England to 569-7 decl. By Liam Morgan SOUTHAMPTON, England (Reuters) - Ian Bell returned to form in spectacular fashion with a superb 167 and debutant Jos Buttler also shone to help England strengthen their dominant position over India on the second day of the third Test yesterday. Bell recovered from a tentative start to exhibit trademark elegance, bringing up his first hundred in 26 innings by thumping Ravindra Jadeja down the ground for six before hitting the spinner for two more boundaries and another maximum in the same over. England, 1-0 down in the
five-match series, declared on 569 for seven in their first innings after a quick-fire 85 full of expansive strokes by new Test wicketkeeper Buttler. Struggling India then closed on 25-1 in their first innings, James Anderson snaffling Shikhar Dhawan (6) yet again with Alastair Cook taking the catch. Previously beleaguered England, who have not won in 10 Tests, will look to ram home their advantage on day three and try to avoid having to bat again if they can enforce a follow-on. Sunday centurion Gary Ballance, who shared a stand of 142 with Bell, was the victim of a poor decision just
before lunch when he was given out caught behind for 156, despite no hint of an edge on replays. After the interval, India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni opted to utilise his seamers in one-over spells, attempting to break England’s concentration. It paid dividends early on as Joe Root (3) got a regulation edge to Dhoni after being tempted into a prod outside off stump by Bhuvneshwar Kumar. SWASHBUCKLING INNINGS Clearly buoyed by taking his first wicket, Kumar added the scalp of Moeen Ali (12) by teasing the batsman into

Towards the end of the middle session, the ball began to nibble around in the overcast conditions and Buttler survived a third umpire review after Rahane thought
he got his fingers to a low chance at second slip. Buttler, replacing the injured and out-of-form Matt Prior, profited and demonstrated his prowess with an exhilarating stand of 106 with Bell. Bell’s swashbuckling innings, which included 19 fours and three sixes, came to an end when he attempted to hit Kumar over mid-off but instead picked out Pankaj Singh. Buttler played superbly in a situation conducive to his attacking one-day style, dispatching the bowling attack to all parts of the ground with ruthless power. He survived a simple missed stumping by Dhoni and eventually played onto a Jadeja delivery as he sensed a debut ton to force a declaration from Cook.

Jangoo century in vain as T&T draw GEORGETOWN, Guyana (CMC) – Trinidad & Tobago failed to reward a composed hundred from Amir Jangoo and were forced to settle for a draw with longstanding sports rivals Barbados in the Regional Under-19 Championship here yesterday. The left-handed opener was almost flawless, gathering 101 that anchored his side to 239 for nine before they declared their second innings about 50 minutes before tea on the final day of their second round match in the three-day competition at the Guyana National Stadium. Barbados, set an improbable, if not impossible 253 in the minimum 40 overs remaining in the day, defied their current low batting form and confidence to reach 103 for four in their second innings before the match was brought to anti-climactic finish. The result meant that both sides ended with 8.4 points, provisionally taking Barbados to fifth place on 12.6 and T&T remaining on the bottom with 9.6.
Barbados face Leeward Islands at Enmore in the final round of matches, when Guyana host T&T at Bourda Oval, the previous international venue in the country. The 17-year-old Jangoo lofted left-arm spin bowler Chad Williams high and straight for the last of his nine boundaries to reach his milestone from 209 balls. He tried to repeat the stroke from the very next delivery off the same bowler and was caught inside the long-on boundary after an innings that was just shy of five hours and followed up his first innings’ 79. Jangoo shared two critical stands that drew the life from the Barbadians. He put on 139 for the second wicket with Brian Christmas and shared 55 for the third wicket with Camillo Carimbocas before his dismissal triggered the chase for quick runs. Christmas made 66 and was equally organised, and Carimbocas showed a bit of enterprise in 29 before T&T lost their next seven wickets for 45, as Williams
Cricket Club. They appeared to be cruising to victory when Ross Powell, who topscored with 38, and Saeed Williams (15) were engaged in an opening stand of 43. However, once they were separated, seven wickets tumbled for 41 runs to hand Jamaica a way back into the game. Ryon Burnett (2-13) Abijai Mansingh (2-30), were

Leewards survive wobble to beat Jamaica GEORGETOWN, Guyana (CMC) – Leeward Islands suffered a wobble before pulling off a nervous two-wicket victory over Jamaica, on the final day of their Regional Under-19 Championship contest here yesterday. Chasing a modest 102 for victory, the Leewards scrambled to 107 for eight in the second round encounter at the Demerara
Scoreboard
the main catalyst for the revival as they rocked Leeward Islands with inspired spells. Captain Jeremiah Louis then produced a skipper’s knock, playing responsibly for an unbeaten 34 to stem the flow of wickets and see Leewards to their target. Earlier, Jamaica were bundled out for 107 in their second innings, after resuming the day on 91
for eight. Fast bowler Alzarri Joseph took one more wicket to end with five for 43 while Shaquille Martina (2-6) and Louis (2-28) finished with two wickets apiece. The victory for Leewards carried them to second on 25.6 points, just behind leaders Guyana on 26.3 points. Jamaica, meanwhile, lie fourth on 20.8 points.

Duquan Hercules: Following in the footsteps of my father … eyes another Digicel Schools Football title By Rawle Toney S I X T E E N - y e a r- o l d Duquan Hercules is on a mission - a mission which the Christianburg/Wismar Secondary School student says is fuelled by living up to expectations of being the nephew of one of Guyana’s most gifted football players, Collie Hercules, and to live the dreams of the father he never knew. Duquan was just one year-old when a horrific minibus accident on the Linden/Soesdyke Highway claimed the life of his father Clive Hercules, along with more than five others. “I have no knowledge of my father, just photos. I don’t know what he sounds like, but people say they see him in me everyday, especially when I play football,”
said the younger Hercules in an exclusive interview with Chronicle Sport. “I was born into football,” Duquan said, as he spoke of being part of a family whose name is synonymous with flamboyance and greatness on the football pitch. Thanks to the Digicel Schools football tournament, the 16-year-old midfield player was brought to prominence where he helped his school to win their second title while playing an important factor in their quest to win a third. Hercules plays the game with great grandiosity; smooth is his flow on the field and his trademark free kicks have certainly made him into a star in the local football circles. “I don’t make much
BBCI supports KMTC preEmancipation horse race meet
Chief Executive Officer of the Berbice River Bridge Company Inc., Omadat Samaroo, presents the sponsorship cheque to Justice Cecil Kennard. THE Berbice Bridge Company Inc (BBCI) has once again thrown its support behind the Kennard Memorial Turf Club (KMTC) post-Emancipation horse-race meet, set for this Sunday at the Club’s Bush Lot Farm, Corentyne facility. The sponsorship was well received by Justice Cecil Kennard, who stated that the race meet will feature some of Guyana’s finestbred horses. Omadat Samaroo, Chief Executive Officer of the Berbice River Bridge Company Inc., declared, “This is not our first sponsorship with the club; we supported the club on several occasions. The sport creates great attractions not only to Berbicians, but those fans that come from as far as Linden and at times the West Coast of Demerara and even Suriname and other
foreign countries to witness the events.” According to the oganisers, the A and Lower will be the feature event and will be contest over a distance of one mile. $1M is up for grabs and $500 000 will go to the second-place finisher. The thirdand fourth-place finishers will receive $250 000 and $125 000 respectively. Other events are carded for the day, with the D ‘3’ non-winner in 2014 and H and Lower Open over a distance of 1700 metres with the winner carting off $500 000. The J ‘1’ will see the animals run over a distance of 1000 metres. The winner will receive $180 000. Other races include the J ‘3’& Lower, G ‘1’ & Lower, I and Lower and there is a race for K Class animals.
Duquan Hercules’ father Clive of it, I just try to stay humble and be the best in football and to do well at school because education is important,” said the 16-year-old. He’s not known for scoring but has pierced the nets of many opponents on his way to winning two ‘Screw’ Richmond titles, the inaugural Kashif and Shanghai Schools football tournament and of course one of two Digicel Schools football tournaments, all with the
school popularly known as ‘Multi’. “I’ve been playing all my life as far as I remember but I played on the Upper Demerara team since I was 14,” Hercules said. He added “It’s a lot of pressure being the nephew of Collie Hercules and they say my father was a great player. It’s hard because it means I always have to play my best. When people see me play, they like to compare me to my uncle and some to my father, but I don’t know him. So I use that to always do my best. I have great respect for my uncle because he helps me a lot with training and tries to motivate me to stay on the right track and tells me to always be myself.” But as much as Duquan praises his uncle, he says that his grandmother is the person who supports him
and has been more than a mother and a father to him. Grace Hercules, a national scrabble player, is a household name in Linden and is famous for her artistry with food, owning one of the most popular establishments in the Mackenzie market. “My grandmother means the world to me.
Duquan Hercules (left) celebrates with a school mate after their semifinals win over Bush Lot Secondary.
She inspires me to do great things and to stay focused in school, play football and to be a good person. I don’t know what I would do without her so, I think I will be good in the future because she tells me football isn’t all and I must be educated,” said Hercules. In the meantime, Duquan said his immediate focus is winning another Digicel Schools Football Tournament and working on his craft to play at the highest level. “We will win; Waramadong can’t beat us. I think we have what it takes to win despite everyone, every year coming to take the title. We have a lot of unity and we believe a lot in each other. The coaches are great and I hope people will come and support us in the Final because we work hard to be the best.”
10th Annual Regan Rodrigues Memorial 50-miler set for Sunday THE 10th Annual Regan Rodrigues Memorial 50-mile cycle road race will be staged on Sunday in the West Demerara area beginning at 08:00hrs from outside the Wales Police Station, West Bank Demerara and is being organised by national cycle coach Hassan Mohamed. From there, the seniors and juniors will journey to Bushy Park, East Bank Essequibo before turning back to finish at the entrance leading to the Demerara Harbour Bridge. The veterans, mountain bikers and ladies will turn back at Uitvlugt and finish at the same spot as the seniors and juniors. The top six finishers as well as the top three juniors will receive cash and trophies, while the top three veterans, top three mountain bikers and top three ladies will also receive cash prizes as well as trophies. A special prize will be awarded to the first Over-60 finisher. Eight prime prizes will be up for grabs. The defending champion for the event is Robin Persaud who clocked one hour 57 minutes 27 seconds in winning the race last year
and he is almost certain to make a successful defence of that title since five of the country’s current top performers are on national duty in Glasgow, Scotland where they are attending and competing in the XX Commonwealth Games. The five are: Geron Williams, Raynauth Jeffrey, Alanzo Greaves, Scot Savory and Marlon `Fishy’ Williams. With the quintet absent, Persaud will still have to be wary of Paul DeNobrega and Mario King who are both capable of staging an upset. The defending junior champion is Hamzah Eastman who will also be keen to win the overall title. Talim Shaw will be defending the veterans’ title but can expect keen and exciting competition from the likes of Linden Blackman, Raymond Newton, Junior Niles, Stephen Fernandes and Kennard Lovell. Julio Melville is the defending champion in the mountain bike category, while Hazina Barret will be defending the ladies’ title. Rodrigues is a former cyclist who served as president of the Guyana Cycling Federation for a number of years. He was also president of the Carlton Wheelers cycle club
which is now headed by race organiser Mohamed. He was also a racing car champion and dominated the South Dakota Circuit for a number of years before retiring. As head of the Ricks and Sari Group of Companies and Agro Industries, Rodrigues sponsored a number
of local races both in the National Park and on the roadways of Guyana. He was known for his generosity, not only to cycling and cyclists, but to other sport disciplines as well. Rodrigues’ wife Dianne and other family members will present the prizes to the respective winners.

CPL Twenty20 showpiece hailed a success as numbers pick up BRIDGETOWN, Barbados (CMC) – Organisers of the Limacol Caribbean Premier League (CPL) say they are pleased with the second edition of the regional Twenty20 tournament, despite a lukewarm start two weeks ago. The showpiece got off to a slow start, with noticeably empty stands at the first match in Grenada earlier this month and moderate attendances in Antigua but CPL CEO Damien O’Donohoe said it was encouraging to see increased numbers of spectators attending the matches around the region since. “We’re really delighted, it’s hard to believe we’re only three weeks in, and I think everyone will agree that the cricket’s been absolutely first class and the crowds that have come out, it’s very exciting,” O’Donohoe told CMC Sports. “And we’re rolling into two big weeks next week with Jamaica and St Lucia, before we go to the final in St Kitts.” For the first time, Grenada’s National Stadium hosted the opening ceremony and the first three games before action moved on to Antigua and Guyana, the latter of which featured full houses for each match. The Barbados leg, which bowled off last Wednesday, saw a capacity crowd for Saturday’s final game while matches in Trinidad and Tobago were played before a packed Queen’s Park Oval. O’Donohoe said the sparse crowds for the opening matches had not impacted the tournament negatively. “You see here in Barbados this week a sold out stadium, three sold-out games in Trinidad this week, ticket sales are flying for both Jamaica and St Lucia so I re-
The CPL, which was inaugurated in 2013, replaced the West Indies Cricket Board-run Caribbean T20 which followed on from the Stanford 20/20, created by now disgraced Antiguabased Texan investor Allen Stanford. He is serving a 104-year jail sentence in the
CPL CEO Damien O’Donohoe ally don’t see that being an issue,” he said. “Grenada to start was disappointing and I will say Antigua was slightly disappointing but on a whole the ticket sales have been really good and the crowds have flocked in their thousands again.” One of the major changes to this year’s tournament has been the start time for games. Last year, virtually all games were played at 19:00hrs, but the current campaign has seen some games bowl off as early as 10:00hrs and midday, with the bulk scheduled for 16:00hrs. Only a handful of night fixtures have been carded. O’Donohoe told CMC Sports some adjustments were necessary to this year’s schedule because of the growing popularity of the tournament. “Well, obviously last year all the games were at 19:00hrs and this year it’s been a challenge because of the worldwide international TV audience,” he pointed out. “We’ve had to schedule some games during the day and that has been a challenge from a crowd perspective but overall we sold over 75 per cent of the tickets so it’s been a great success.”

U.S. for fraud. While the Twenty20 version of the game is gaining momentum in the region and worldwide, cricket enthusiasts have raised concerns that it may be to the detriment of the traditional Test matches. However, O’Donohoe said the T20 has had a major role to play in renewing interest in the game, especially
among children. “It’s been great in terms of bringing in a new audience to cricket and also bringing people to the game, especially kids, bringing them back to the game,” O’Donohoe said. “And that’s one thing we noticed, even speaking to the WICB, they’ve told us that the numbers of kids participating in cricket have
really dramatically increased as a result of the Caribbean Premier League.” Six franchises – Antigua Hawksbills, Barbados Tridents, Guyana Amazon Warriors, Jamaica Tallawahs, T&T Red Steel and St Lucia Zouks – are participating in the CPL. The final is scheduled for August 17 at Warner Park in St Kitts.

Sprint glory for Bailey-Cole and Okagbare GLASGOW, Scotland (Reuters) – Kemar Bailey-Cole ensured Jamaica reigned supreme on the track again by winning the 100 metres gold medal in the Commonwealth Games yesterday. Bailey-Cole, who trains with compatriot and world record holder Usain Bolt, made a slow start out of the blocks but his long stride
helped him claw his way back into the main group at the midway point on a blustery evening at Hampden Park. With 10 metres remaining he got on the shoulder of England’s Adam Gemili and powered past him to triumph in a time of 10.00 seconds. Turn to page 31

Tridents salute Sir Garry
The Greatest of All-Time has reached another landmark SIR Garfield Sobers, the greatest all-rounder the sport of cricket has ever seen, and Barbados’ only living National Hero, celebrated his 78th birthday yesterday.
Sir Garry got an early birthday gift last Saturday, when the Barbados Tridents presented him with a special team shirt at Kensington Oval before their Caribbean Premier League match against Amazon
Warriors. Sir Garry, who attended all three of the team’s home matches, was all smiles when he realised his shirt number was 365 – the world record score he made as a 21-year-old
in 1958. Here, Sir Garry is presented with his shirt by team mentor and fellow West Indies legend Desmond Haynes (left) and captain Kieron Pollard. (BA)
