I met with young Richard David today. He has declared his intention as candidate for District 28 /Richmond hill/South Jamaica and South Ozone Park.
Richard came to the USA WHEN HE WAS 10 YEARS OLD AND HOLDS A MASTERS FROM NYU.
Let us all support this young man.

He might be the Richard David of the Community Board 9 serving part of the Richmond Hill area and surroundings. He's also an Executive Director of the Indo-Caribbean Alliance - a Richmond Hill body - and Vice President of the New York City Economic Development Corporation (maybe a rival body to Vishnu's RHEDC) His NYU masters degree is in Public Accounts.
Democrat most likely.
You can catch him at the ICA Gala next month at World's Fair Marina I believe.
Same fellow Kari.
We had a long discussion today and I promised that I will introduce you to him in the coming days.
I have known this young man for 10 years and he has done a lot for our community.
Democrat Cobra just like you and Nehru.
Cobra I can arrange for you to meet with Mr David.

I met him before - young, decent fellow with interest in civic affairs. I might have met him at the recent screening of the Jahaji movie at the ICA office in 130 St and Liberty Ave
Kari he need our support.
I wonder who Vishnu supporting for this seat.

If this is the organization to which you refer, it is way bigger than the RHEDC, in no way is it a "rival", and one can bet that there are as many VPs there than there is at Citibank, meaning that being a VP brings no real clout.
CaribJ you are correct and on the money, no comparison at all.

Richard is a great kid and hopefully he can motivate our youth for get involved
On a serious note, what is holding back Shaits ? He should throw his hat into the ring but I honestly do not have any knowledge of NY politics.

I will need to know more about him. I will do my research and then decide. Mr Haq seems like a nice Guy. I had a ticket from Sanitation and wrote the Borough President, he replied on her behalf.

Great turnout this afternoon and I was honored to be one of the speakers.
Kindly spread the word Richard David for District 28 in NYC.
Chief you are peddling someone but you do not seems to know relevant information.
Who asked Richard to run?
What has he done for the community?
Whilst he was a Big Wig at the EDC, did he help any organization in our community?
Vish, I hope he is not Richmond Hill Uncle Tom like we have in Guyana. He do not want to hear Uncle Nehru big mouth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I would pay money for a copy of Chief's speech. It should be priceless. One question - how many times was the word "hate" in there?
Nehru posted:Vish, I hope he is not Richmond Hill Uncle Tom like we have in Guyana. He do not want to hear Uncle Nehru big mouth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He does hang out with the PNC crowd in Brooklyn. But I heard he is a nice guy.
I congratulate the young man. Go ahead son. Pass or fail, you would have done better than many of your jealous critics.
