Seeraj seems to be ignorant of how effective NRG's in the 60's and 70's were instrumental to bring about free and fair elections in Guyana.

We owe it to ourselves to give Dr. Persaud a second chance

Dear Editor,

I have read a few letters on whether Dr. Vishwamintra Persaud should be allowed to practice medicine in Guyana. Please permit me to interject my thoughts on this issue.
Dr. Persaud was trained in the USA. I have first hand knowledge on the intensive effort and long hours Dr Persaud endured in earning his medical degree since my son is a board-certified doctor who was also trained in the USA.

Dr. Persaud has confessed that he made a grave error in judgment while he practiced medicine in the USA. While no one can or should justify Dr. Persaud’s past conduct, we owe it to ourselves to rationally re-think the entire situation.

We, as humans, are all guilty of past mistakes, some grave and some minor. As a young physician, Dr. Persaud wrongly committed some unprofessional acts.

The question now is: Do we condemn a person forever for an act that he/she has committed and has since sincerely regretted or should we allow an individual to get a second chance to redeem himself and do what he is trained to do?

I respectfully would propose to the eminent physicians on the Medical Council of Guyana that Dr. Persaud is entitled to a second chance on the condition that he is placed on probation for five years. Any subsequent and unprofessional conduct by Dr. Persaud will immediately lead to his medical licence revocation.

Dr. Persaud, under close monitoring, can serve Guyana (where there is a shortage of doctors) well for many, many years.

Dr. Seeraj Mattai

He appears to be throwing stones at Dr Rose and Dr TK. Both men published in their respective fields. 

Here is Dr Rose's book: http://www.amazon.com/Dependency-Socialism-Modern-Caribbean-Intervention/dp/0739104489/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1383251226&sr=8-1&keywords=dependency+and+socialism+in+modern+caribbean

Is Dr Mattai referring to D2???

Dr Mattai has a logic similar to yours. Are you him? 

There we again, "The Village Idiot."

"Also, many in academic positions should be working on research projects worthy to be published in respected peer-reviewed journals rather than writing in newspapers." Seeraj Mattai

Looks like Seeraj taking a cheap shot at redux.

Rev

He is silly. I want him to come here and fight like a man.

HEHEHE Dr Mittai gat Balls Bhai, he telling it like it is.

Please join us Dr Mattai...I want to know why we can address ills in the US and not in Africa or India or China much less our homeland.

The man has a God given RIGHT to state his opinion.

What is Mr Mattai's area of expertise? Is he a medical doc?

Wan Chap name TK AKA Redux does do Nuff Nuff research and thing. Maybe is he.

Mr Nehru what is Dr Mattai's area of research? Can we find his work online? My mamoo also want to see his work.

When I see him this afternoon I gun ask he.

I was expecting you to know him. 

Sure does...I want him to come and state them here so we can try to expand and illuminate his range of seeing. Those glasses are apparently screwing up with his vision.

Did he scalp a wai wai or is he  blood of my blood?...gotta go easy on him!!!!

Come on, the man look like Manoj Kumar.

He he of amerind stock also?

Mr Nehru I cannot find which university he teaches at. Please direct us to a link. Thank you kind Sir. 

Yuh know how to use Google. It is www.google.com

It is not in Google. Is he a quack PhD like the quack Bishop? 

For a doctor he should get a better fitting toupee 

Don't delude yourself to think that this forum with its cuss down contingent comprising of the pedophile gang will attract persons of substance to subject themselves to attacks and debates that include unsubstantiated claims. You d2 are the king of unsubstantiated claims, most recently against the govt. 

that shirt also has a creepy look...the Rev must be his fashion consultant. The hair...well it is what it is.

The government is composed of a bunch of crooks. They are public figures whose lives are open to scrutiny.

As for unsubstantiated claims...the only thing about pedophilia relevant here is your obvious encounter with it as a kid. You seem to be quite obsessed with the term. Seek therapy. Misuse of the term would not help. 

Danyael:

The blowhards and blabbermouths on this forum are good at ad-hominem attacks and cheap shots, but when it comes to substantive discussions they are all exposed as a bunch of nitwits, kooks, and dunces.

RE: DR MATTAI

I believe he has a Phd in the engineering field--- and is affiliated with the University Of Windsor in Canada---you can check that out.

Rev

Reserve you insults for your self since you have aptly demonstrated you are all of he above. Windsor is a great school. It certainly is not green tee U. The gentleman would have had a proper education as an engineer ( little deficient in the humanities)

Anyway, let him come here and defend the letter in the OP. He came from a great university so I am sure he can hold his own. I expect him to be better than you in any event.

No one, not Jesus, not Buddha, not Prophet Mohamed, not the esteemed Rev---no one can hold his own against imbeciles, fools, nitwits, morons and idiots.

Mattai is free to come here and express his views---but he must never get into an argument with some of the nasty cretins here.

If he ever chooses to post on GNI, Mattai would be wise to emulate the respectable Rev---make his point but never get into the gutter with the scums here.

Rev

Do not scare the man away. You are a vile bastard but I am sure he can take care of himself.

Rev you are not respectable. You are a racist and you support corruption, nepotism....... You are being tolerated for entertainment, that does not mean you are a respectable person.

The Rev appreciates your kind compliment---he knows it is genuine and sincere.

Rev

The chief gutter rat is mitjuanita followed by jaliki and members of the pedophile gang. D2 rounds up the pack. 

Drugee, can the Specailty hospital not help you?

[1] Dr Seeraj Mattai is entitled to his opinion on Non-Resident Guyanese (NRGs).

NRGs are entitled to their opinion too, and a rebuttal.

[2] Dr Mattai says "Guyanese do not like to be lectured to."

Gilbakka says NRGs also don't like to be lectured to, which is exactly what Dr Mattai did to us in his spurious and provocative letter.

[3] Dr Mattai says NRGs should "focus on events in their new land instead of writing letters Guyanese newspapers."

Dr Mattai is a NRG himself; he should practice what he preaches.

[4] Dr Mattai is not the only NRG who makes trips back to Guyana, provides donations to worthy causes in Guyana and keeps abreast of what is happening in Guyana.

The Inter-American Development Bank says Guyanese got US$400 million in remittances last year, and that this sum of funds accounted for 17 percent of Guyana's Gross Domestic Product.

For the record, Gilbakka contributed a measly amount to that US$400 million as I'm sure my fellow GNI members contributed too.

Like Dr Mattai, we NRGs also keep abreast of what is happening in Guyana through online Guyanese newspapers, plus letters and e-mails and text messages and phone calls to our relatives and friends there.

Why should we not comment on what happens there? We're not dumb, deaf, blind or indifferent.

[5] NRGs still hold Guyanese citizenship legally and constitutionally.

We have equal rights and obligations as resident Guyanese.

Dr Mattai is threatening our citizenship rights with the foolishness he lectures us with in his stinking offensive letter.

Gilbakka is angered.

I have to concede you are one wise Gilbakka. From this day on I can never eat gilbakka. Thank you Mr Gilbakka, Sir, for your refreshing perspective. 

He is a fraud like you. If he were a faculty there they would advertise his profile and his research. He is full of crap like Mr nehru. 

Dude you obviously have been molested as a kid, is a molester or infatuated with the idea. It is rather strange that of all the things you can invent to pretend you can use as leverage to ridicule others, you had to go for the most odious. Obviously you do not think this is a serious issue or you would not misuse it so lightly. If this is a cry for help from childhood abuse you are also not in the right place. Whatever it is, you cannot find answers here. You need a good therapist.

i feel sorry for Mr BGurd_See. He was obviously abused as a child. I wish him love.
