Sam deserves the higher of the 2 pensions.
It was sad that Doodnauth, a former Minister had to sue to get his payments.
So can you imagine the hell the ordinary, working poor have to go through to get their NIS benefits?
Dale Bisnauth told me a story that he was trying to help someone get a birth certificate. When he went to GPO he did not pull ranks; he did not tell them who he was. They gave him the run around. Dale said his brother challenged him that he will pay bribe and get a birth certificate quicker. His brother did and got it to prove his point. Dale said he had to go a few times before he eventually got it.
So that is Guyana for you under our dear PPP. Nothing has changed since the Burnhamite days. So think what happens to a man from Black Bush or Skeldon trying to get documents in Georgetown because our dear PPP did not regionalize services as Dr. Jagan promised (and criticized the PNC when he was in Opposition).
