Albert, until a few years ago, I ate, sleep and dream of the PPP My mom went to school with Cheddi and I knew all the brothers and other relatives. My grandfather was Cheddi's father best friend.
Being serious Albert, the PPP USED to work hard for the ordinary folks of Guyana...something changed along the way...a parting occured and as we presently work with youth groups, they dont see a connection with the government.
Only this morning a couple from our youth group contacted us about wanting to get married in December, they both have low paying jobs miles apart from each other.
Friends will help with wedding cost, but one of them have to quit and find a job closer to the other.
Overseas organization fund their house, hydro wiring, etc...but their wage will be impossible to start a family.
They need help Albert and the GOG need to establish the atmosphere for this to happen.
There seems to be a serious disconnect between GT and the ordinary folks in Guyana. You can only see this if you live for a while among the poor in Guyana, as we do with our programs.
I respect your stand with the new PPP, I might seem harsh at times, but I get angry when I see the injustice done to innocent people.

NEW United States Ambassador to Guyana Mr. D Brent Hardt has reiterated his pledged commitment to working with the Guyana Government, civil society and private sector organizations, as well as with all Guyanese, to build on the existing partnership for the mutual benefit of both Guyana and the United States of America. [Prime Minister Samuel Hinds delivering remarks at the reception to welcome the US Ambassador Mr. D. Brent Hardt delivering remarks at the reception on Tuesday evening. Also in photo are Prime Minister Sam Hinds, Foreign Affairs Minister Mrs. Carolyn Rodrigues-Birkett and Mrs. Saskia Hardt (left). ] âAt the end of the day, diplomacy is all about people, relationships, establishing trust and confidence, listening and working together effectively,â Ambassador Hardt posited during remarks at a âWelcome Receptionâ he and his beautiful wife, Saskia, hosted at their new home in Cummings Lodge on Tuesday evening.
âI have come to know Guyana as a country with tremendous economic potential, with its rainforest, agricultural lands, mineral resources, and creative and innovative peopleâĶwith continued strong economic investments and continued growth in the confidence of the political process, I believe Guyana is poised for major achievements,â the US Ambassador declared.
Hardt also noted that US engagement in Guyana is rooted in collaboration and shared values of democracy, tolerance, economic opportunities, and respect for human dignity, which have borne fruit in a host of joint efforts in several areas. [Prime Minister Sam Hinds and US Ambassador Brent Hardt in conversation. ]
The Centre for Disease Control and the USAID have been working closely over the last decade with the Ministry of Health to combat HIV/AIDS and other diseases.
He said that President Barack Obamaâs primary security programme for the region, the Caribbean Basin Security Initiative, has allowed close working relations with Guyana in a regional effort to combat drug trafficking and help young people to avoid getting involved in criminal activities.
The US Embassy has also been working with the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM) to support electoral processes, while the partnership between the US Forest Services and the Guyana Forestry Commission (GFC) aims to help Guyana achieve the REDD+ initiatives in its Low Carbon Development Strategy (LCDS).
The US-Guyana trade and investment support project has been opening new export opportunities for Guyanese goods and services, eco-tourism, aquaculture, agriculture and wood products.
In terms of support in the energy sector, the US has been working with local agencies to support the implementation of a potential oil and gas reserve exploration in a manner that will maximise the benefits for Guyana.
Hardt, a career diplomat who has served as Charge dâ Affaires of the US Embassy in the Bahamas among other postings, presented his letters of Credence to President Bharrat Jagdeo on September 15. [Agriculture Minister Robert Persaud and Banks DIH CEO Mr. Clifford Reis among guests at the reception.]
Prime Minister Samuel Hinds, in his remarks on behalf of the Government and people of Guyana joined the diplomatic community and special invitees at the in welcoming the new US Ambassador to Guyana.
Prime Minister Hinds said Guyana and the US have traditionally shared a close collaborative relationship in various areas such as health, security, climate change, governance and energy, all of which contribute to the countryâs overall national development efforts.
