Eric Philips throwing water on the backs of ducks. It ain't gonna work. Afros have increased their participation in the last two decades due to the fact that government created a better environment for business to grow and prosper. The current government is anti business. Too much taxes on businesses and individuals to boost revenue to pay for ministers and other civil servants salaries. This does not not translate into economic growth. Borrow a page from BJ and you get results. Businesses have been suffering in the last couple of years and moreso for the Afro Guyanese. Eric needs to wake up and smell the coffee. Preaching the same old rhetoric would not change things
