Well, BJ got an increase over 5 years as Guyana's economy grew. Granger and the rest of this hapless Govt bunch took 500% within the first year...and as the economy shrank!!

Don't you ever get tired of lying?

Granger's monthly salary was increased from $1,626,858 to $1,800,750, a mere 10.7% increase. It is nowhere near 40 million per year. Compare a 10.7% increase to Jagdeo giving himself a 100% increase every year for 5 years.

Question, if BJ took 500%, then why did Granger see it fit to further increase, regardless by what amount?  Why did he not freeze or cut back and expose the former prezzy as over the top?  No, he increased it for himself!

Granger increased it by 10.7%. Ramotar also increased it when he came to power. How do you justify 100% increases every year for 5 years?

Do they release tax returns in Guyana for the public to see.  Cause as far as I can see there is too much bullshit being tossed around against both parties

Jagdeo was President for 11 years in a growing economy.  Granger gave himself and his ministers a salary increase even before any of them got any work done.  And now they are producing a failing economy.

That was not my question.  Let's say the PPP was over the top, wasteful lived too large on the tax payers' backs.  Now that your "pristine" PNC with their "godly" personalities took power, why don't they roll back and come in line with what they believe to be reasonable for Guyana?

You people are a bunch of hypocrites, you cuss the PPP while your hapless PNC doing worse or the same and they have done NOTHING positive for Guyana since May 2015!

If these politicians' taxes were made public, they would still insist that you shouldn't believe your lying eyes.

Take for instance, Harmon claimed that he showed the evidence of the missing USD5M to the cabinet, yet Moses who as Prime Minister is essentially head of the Cabinet was only recently stating that he will insist that Harmon show him the evidence. Politicians are by nature, crooked people. Only the low information group expect honesty from them. What people should expect from them is performance and right now, this government in Guyana has not produced and is moving backwards.

Banna, the hypocrisy is with you and your hapless PNC clowns.  In the end, Granger inherited a level of salary and chose to accept it and increase it an additional 10.7%, well above inflation or the GDP growth.  Therefore, Granger still believes the salary is below par or he would, at most, only accept a COLA adjustment!

Granger' 2016 salary is 727% what Jagdeo's was in 2006 compared to Jagdeo's 2011 salary which was 583% what it was in 2006. This came over a period of 5 years where Jagdeo grew the economy, removed the national debt and saw a broad base improvement in Guyanese wealth and standard of living. On the other hand, Granger's 727% of Jagdeo's 2006 salary came in less than one year which saw the Guyanese economy contract as well as a drop in investment and producers confidence. Not much if any defense for Granger here. Too much time (one whole year) was spent on planning then poorly executing the 50 anniversary celebrations.

Don't try to educate fools. The PNC even before doing any work on day one took 50% increase, they saw the thriving economic climate that the PPP left and a huge reserve, today the well is running dry.The bottom line Jagdeo made $1.3millions, today Grangar makes $1.8millions, Who is making more you fool.

For the same reason that the PPP did not return salary increases that they cried months about. They vowed to return every penny of the salary increase for MP's. They haven't given back a cent to this day.

Result: National debt = 0. Jagdeo was very active in pursuing the removal of that debt which was accumulated during the 1st PNC era. Note that I purposefully used the word 'remove'.

The rest of your comment is baseless conjecture. I know many ordinary Guyanese who became wealthy during the 1992 - 2011 era and they did so trading in durable goods and consumables. That trend would have continued had the Coalition Opposition from 2011 not sabotaged all of Ramotar's initiatives.

Your 10.7% singing is only satisfying to you because it is actually 727% of Jagdeo's 2006 salary compared to Jagdeo's 2011 salary being 583% of his own 2006 salary. This is inspite of the Coalition government promising the Guyanese people that if they vote for them, they will correct the "misgivings" of the PPP government. To correct something means to place it at a level less than it currently is.

Besides introducing cocaine trafficking as a new industry and bringing massive crime with it, I can't think of any. He left the sugar industry in tatters and the rest of the economy is right where it was 50 years ago.

Granger took a 10.7% raise. Jagdeo raised his salary 100% for 5 years straight plus increased his pension astronomically. Which other president on this planet would do that?

Result: National debt = 0. Jagdeo was very active in pursuing the removal of that debt which was accumulated during the 1st PNC era. Note that I purposefully used the word 'remove'.

The rest of your comment is baseless conjecture. I know many ordinary Guyanese who became wealthy during the 1992 - 2011 era and they did so trading in durable goods and consumables. That trend would have continued had the Coalition Opposition from 2011 not sabotaged all of Ramotar's initiatives.

Your 10.7% singing is only satisfying to you because it is actually 727% of Jagdeo's 2006 salary compared to Jagdeo's 2011 salary being 583% of his own 2006 salary. This is inspite of the Coalition government promising the Guyanese people that if they vote for them, they will correct the "misgivings" of the PPP government. To correct something means to place it at a level less than it currently is.

 

All Jagdeo had to do was beg. There were initiatives by many rich nations to forgive the debt of poorer countries. It's not by some great economic initiative that the Guyana debt was removed.  

I know many Guyanese who became wealthy during Burnham's reign so what's your point. Guyanese politics is all about opposition non-cooperation with the government in power. It's not limited to any one party but you clowns are too blind to notice this.

Garnger is not the one who raised the president's salary to where it is today. Jagdeo gave himself a 500% increase over 5 years and also a massive raise in his pension. That is beyond greed. The PPP government promised to refuse every penny of the salary increase for MP's. How many pennies have they returned after crying for months about that issue?
