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.

Are you serious,what kind of kanta police were at Springlands.

This got be a joke.

Bro, this is no joke..ask Chief about this.

i hear this in every area a old joke

You sit down to eat a meal and you are committing several offenses against Burnham's laws on unaccustomed/banned goods.

Burnham's curse had the unintended consequence of creating a Tapir town in top side.

Dude,

Let's not pretend that anyone really took these laws seriously. The were universally broken.

And people were not living in "fear." I doan know what kinda revisionist history you're trying to write but it's inapposite to the truth.

For people outside of GT, life went on as usual with little change. Sure we had to hoard months of supplies of food toiletries gasoline etc. but life went on.

Maybe you lived in Ghargetung and had to wait in lines for a tin of sardines but the rest of the country got by just fine it seems.

All this nonsense about deep and painful roti and aloo privations is just romantic nonsense.

Dude,

It's "good food" because we were/are a colonial people who solidly bought into the Imperial economic and cultural system of the Victorian/Edwardian Era.

The sardines came from British fisheries, therefore good. The sardines cost more than cheap local fresh fish, therefore good.

Our sardine habit as a People is actually one of the most potent symbols of the success of the British Empire.

Rice and eddo helped. Funny thing was the poor black people were the ones who really starved. All the shopkeepers were Indos.

Once they took me down to Brickdam with a bag of split peas. While the poor officer trying to write up a charge, the police legal adviser came over (my school friend), and holler pon the poor chap.

I hated the cinema as a child. All dem Bollywood movies with their loud yelling and killings of favored characters used to frikken and distress me. Our local theater was mainly Indo.
