I am from Berbice...I never supported the PPP...
Why would you support them? Your bread was well buttered by the PNC.
Please...you people from Corentyne should be the last ones talking about bread being buttered...I had to stand in line like everyone else...except you folks
I don't remember ever seeing a line for anything in the Corentyne. Especially food or what not. We bought our stuff straight from Suriname.
You bin see dem boat from Suriname nah? Suriname through Line Path, Corentyne. The PNC police scums got paid too to look the other way.
I know. I don't diminish the fact that bribes had to be paid. FYI, coolie Policemen were on the take as well.
The coolies were telling the black police whose house might have aloo etc.
I had an elderly aunt once fined for aloo possession 
I know. "If me gah eat salt an rice, de whole goddamn village must eat salt an rice"
Police once arrested a family with aloo and lamb curry in the karahee. Put the karahee(as evidence) in the back of the jeep with the family. When they arrived at Springlands police station, the karahee was there minus the aloo and meat. Case was dismissed.
Well, at least yuh got back the karahee. That was more than some families got back when their property became "evidence"
One of our cars was impounded at Springlands (must have been the same aloo/lamb gang) and by the time we notified the Police Commander that these idiots impound his share of banned goods , the car wheel, engine, windows, etc. etc. done gone
We just decided to leave the remaining "car" at the station.
P.S....We got de last laff though. Dat jackass at Springlands who impounded our car fuh fetching banned goods got instantly transferred to patrol some Amerindian village up the Corentyne river accessible only by canoe
