I see all of this differently.
The opposition are scaring the Chinese population with their anti Chinese propaganda. Chinese are one of the six races of Guyana. Are we now a land of five races ?
.
Despite what you might think Africans are also one of the six, so why didn't the PPP encourage Haitians to migrate there? We can even go back to the days of the Federaation when Cheddi refused to join, causing its collapse, as Trinidad didn't want to be burdened by supporting the THEN poor smaller islands (inclusive of Barbados) when Jamaica left, and Guyana refused to join.
So why did Guyana not join the Federaion? Hordes of Grenadians, Vincentians, and St Lucians descending on Guyana, disturbing the ethnic distribution was the reason.
So spare me the nonsense of the Chinese. They are born in China and have NOTHING to do culturally with Guyanese people of Chinese ancestry. Facing a declining and increasingly restive Indian population, and failing to break into the African and mixed blocs the PPP is seeking insurance.
