Mitwah posted:Yugi and the other PPP antagonists take note: " the 2015 suicide rate for Guyana, which shows a reduction from 44.2 to 30.6 per 100,000, and not all or any other previous rates. After all it is the same global organization, WHO, that has been putting out these rates annually using the same yardsticks, processes and methodologies et al."
Caribbean Voice, Annan and the rest of the organization are doing a great job. They held a big workshop in E'bo last weekend. I was speaking to some participants on Thursday prior to the trip. 2015, are you saying the PNC produced a miracle and turn it on a dime? The hard work of the Org which began well prior to 2015 will bear fruit, it has to. When I listen/read Annan's postings, I don't see him spewing bilge/hatred against the PPP or BJ as seem to be this "Tola's" past-time.
The issue of suicide is non-political. Politicizing the issue makes one lose credibility. Baseman push back at the "Tola" entity because of his anti-BJ/PPP bilge. I am aware this is not a PNC issue either. If you look at the process, it's not that highly dependent on Govt. Many well established NGOs, which operate in Guyana, are involved and there is broad international support from as far away of India.
Annan needs the support to accomplish the goals as I don't believe one year data means you turn the corner. Good luck to Annan and Caribbean Voice!
