Guyanese Indians don't seem inclined to join the GDF or GPF. Nothing wrong with that. The GDF and GPF are not the only places where Guyanese can contribute to Guyana. People do what they like when they have the freedom to chose.

There is something definitely wrong with Indians not joining the Army. Previous to independence they Brits were keen to balance the force and at independence the forces had leadership as West Point trained Major Sateur (sp). Burnham began to discriminate actively against Indians joining.
