yuh want me ask for you?
These defections and the waterfalls incident have really hurt the image of the AFC.
I was not even thinking that it would have hurt so bad. For example, when you see members of the A.C.G who had some serious hate for Jagdeo/Donald and the rest of their team and for the most part were supporters of Comrade Moses, meeting with the same PPP team then you have a problem.
You AFC boys need to refocus and go back to basics. These are some suggestions.
First, you need to call a party congress where it can be used as a symbol of unity.
(Organization of party leadership). You have a core group of leaders such as Moses, Kemraj and Trotman. A second group of leaders such as Gerhard, Van West, Versammy, Lowe, Michael ect should be identified and be ready to step in to fill the core leadership positions if anything happens to the core group of leaders. A third group of leaders should also be identified by ability and be made ready to take up positions in the second group.
An ideological institution (Which can be some guy's bottom house for the present time and nothing big) needs to be set up to educate members and potential leaders on the party's philosophy, goals and objectives.
Second, Every leader and member of the party should be indoctrinated continuously on the importance of party unity, importance of honesty and the reasons why the AFC exist. You AFC boys need to do this like the ten commandments.
Third, Focus on keeping what you have. That means making sure that your core support areas in Berbice and region 8 have competent people there on the ground as organizers to talk to the people.
Fourth, Have a crack volunteer social media team under the leadership of Gerhard. For example, Tarron has left the AFC for the PNC yet his picture still remains on the AFC website as a member. This indicates to the general public that you guys are not serious.
On the brighter side: It is better for these defections and scandals to happen now rather than during an election campaign where there is no time to fix it.
Always remember this. There was a time when the PPP party and PPP leader Dr Jagan/Chairman Burnham were hanging on by a tin rope for policial survival. It was the relentless campaigning of people like Sidney King and in central Georgetown youth leaders like Kenneth Denny that played a big part in turning the fortunes of the party around.

I wish the AFC the best to regroup. They said how the guys from the diaspora don't add anything yet they are wobbly because of these 3 guys.
AFC have to make those Changes
Who or what is the ACG? Is Mr Nehru and Mr Cobra part of that group looking for minister work?
AFC have to make those Changes
Jalil, I have always been treated with absolute kindness at all times by both Comrade Donald and Comrade Moses. I just cannot bring myself to choose between those two men no matter how hard I tried. So I remain neutral.

Just One Question????
The USA State Department
said the following about Guyana in 2012.
Cocaine originating in Colombia
is smuggled to Venezuela and
onward to Guyana by sea
(fishing vessels, bulk cargo vessels and tug vessels)
or air.
Because of Guyanaâs porous borders,
smuggling is also conducted
by land from Brazil and Suriname into Guyana.
Once cocaine arrives in Guyana,
it is often concealed in legitimate commodities
and smuggled via commercial maritime vessels,
air shipments,
human couriers,
or the postal services.
Guyana has seen
its political and judicial infrastructure
impacted by narco-influence,
while its economy
has become increasingly
affected by narco-dollars.
Drug trafficking organizations based in Guyana
are beginning to use neighboring Suriname
as a major distribution hub.
The cocaine is smuggled into Guyana
and then transported to Suriname
for safekeeping and distribution.
In these instances,
Suriname is used as a stash location
and distribution country for drugs entering Guyana.
In other cases, drugs depart directly from Guyana.
Direct Quote from the
US State Dept 2012 Narco-Drug Report
Mr Sugrim Sir,
Kindly tell us here on GNI
What can u tell "De America Govt"
is really saying to the world
about the Guyana/Suriname and Jagdeo/Bouterse?????
What could they be talking about in the Dark?
THERE NO GETTING AWAY FROM THE CORRUPTION SPECTRE
July 1, 2013 ·
At every twist and turn along the way, the government is being confronted with diplomatic and not so diplomatic warnings about corruption and the threat that this poses to investment, good governance and the rule of law here.
Mr Ralph Ramkarran had been with the ruling PPP for nearly 50 years prior to his exit because his concerns about corruption rankled in the party and led to differences. He was a party grandee and one of the few figures in the upper echelons of the PPP whose national contributions and judgement were respected across political lines. In a column last week he pulled no punches. He charged that the PPP was no longer driven by the working class ideology that had moved its founders but was now in the grip of oligarchs, avaricious contractors and corrupt bureaucrats all locked in a cycle of greed, enrichment and illegality. At the top of this pyramid of vulgarity was, as he put it, ââĶa group of wealthy and influential businessmen who have high political connections. They meet regularly to examine business opportunities and potential deals and map out strategies as to how their plans can go forward, and implement those plans. They have access, through their political connections, to information of the potential opportunities that are likely to emerge in the near to medium term and are in a position to make the investments now so as to cash in on those opportunities down the road.â
These scheming businessmen would no doubt be the coterie that was cultivated and set on the road of limitless aggrandizing by former President Jagdeo. One wonders, how the current President, Mr Ramotar, who has also been General Secretary of the PPP for over 16 years would respond to the accusation by his former longstanding colleague that the ideals of the Jagans â as impractical as some of them might have been â have been betrayed under his watch. Mr Ramkarran further asserted that because of commingling of these corrupt groups with the PPP and their inter-dependence the government was not interested in building fundamental checks and balances institutions like the Public Procurement Commission which had been promised by the PPP over a decade ago.
Hardly had the frisson over Mr Ramkarranâs charges waned when an investment conference put on by Canada and other partners spent a significant amount of time pondering the need to address corruption and no doubt angering the government which thought it was going to get a chance to play up its investment credentials in a one-sided equation.
The Canadian High Commissioner to Guyana Mr David Devine opened the conference with a simple message that countries that do not have effective preventive measures in place to stop corruption will lose investors.
âOn a global scale, investors pursue investment opportunities in locations where there are established ethical and transparent business practices. Firms work in countries where their investment dollars are managed efficiently and where practices such as child labour, bribery and corrupt practices are seen as social ills that have no place in business dealingsâ, he posited. He added on day two of the conference that the setting up of bodies such as the Public Procurement Commission would address perceptions of corruption.
The second day of the conference also saw the interim head of the Caricom security agency IMPACS, Mr Francis Forbes stating that Guyanaâs potential was being threatened by the scourge of corruption and that the âtruth is that there are some persons who see the issue of corruption in Guyana as endemicâ.
No doubt stung by the directness of Mr Forbesâ remarks, the Minister of Finance Dr Ashni Singh later stated âI hear Mr. Forbes speak of the scourge of corruption and I would urge some caution in perpetuating at a rigorous level [such statements]â. Both Dr Singh and President Ramotar sought to sweep aside concerns about corruption as either being just perceptions or emanating from the political competition in the country that has spawned a host of allegations from the opposition. Dr Singh incredibly referred to TV programmes on NCN with opposition representatives, which he said failed to produce examples of corruption, as evidence that graft was not a problem here. Ironically, several months after these programmes, senior NCN executives were at the centre of a corruption scandal which the government continues to be silent on and suppress information about.
President Ramotar and Dr Singh continue to live in extravagant denial of the seriousness of corruption and unaccountability. Democratic solidity is underpinned by strong, vibrant institutions like the Public Procurement Commission. Neither the President nor Dr Singh can today provide a credible reason why this commission is not yet in place. When the PPP/C controlled parliament it ignored the need for it on specious grounds. It just didnât want independent eyes observing what was transpiring.
The argument from the President that the charge of corruption is mostly about perception is hardly worth considering. The truth is that the PPP has constructed, as Mr Ramkarran has referred to, a web of patronage and enrichment that has recruited many into illegalities. None will give the other away and there will be no paper trail. Further, the manner in which the PPP exacts retribution scares many from even contemplating speaking about irregularities. These excrescences will rise to the surface anyway even if the government pretends they donât exist. The investigation currently being done by the Inter-American Development Bank of the Citizen Security Programme is the ultimate embarrassment to the government. A programme meant to provide citizens with a sense of security appears to have been ripped off right under the nose of the Home Affairs Ministry. This development was not announced by the government and it is now left to be seen if the IDB recognizes that the citizens of this country who will have to pay back its loan money deserve a full accounting of any fraud pertaining to this project.
The awarding of radio licences in the dying days of the Jagdeo administration constituted a corrupting of the process. The government to this day can provide no explanation for the manner in which it was done. The shadowy dealings around the Marriott Hotel and the assigning of valuable property and rights of the citizens are a corruption of the process. To date, Guyanese havenât the foggiest idea of who their fellow investor is. The manner of the award of the contract for the specialty hospital leaves very little to the imagination. Perhaps the biggest locus of corruption is the assigning of contracts to persons who are not qualified for contracting work. Had the procurement commission been in place, this no doubt would have been an area for attention.
In all of their manufactured excuses and defences against the voluble concerns about corruption and the lack of transparency, Messrs Ramotar and Singh miss an important point. Real harm is being done to the countryâs investment prospects, its image abroad and to the fair apportioning of opportunities to Guyanese in the narrow interest of maintaining the supremacy of the PPP, currently sustained by a cabal referred to by Mr Ramkarran. That is certainly not what good governance is about.
There can be no more excuses. The government has been nakedly exposed for its reckless handling of the warnings from the Caribbean Financial Action Taskforce on anti-money laundering legislation. This is another example of inexplicable inaction which could only lead to the most adverse conclusions. The immediate setting up of the procurement commission would be a sign that the government is serious about transparency and fighting corruption. However, as with the anti-money laundering laws, the government has to overcome a serious deficit in terms of promised and expected actions.

Ramkarran nearly fifty years with the PPP/C and was treated like dirt, he knows thieving was the order of the day, hence his resignation.
Sash Sawh knows about the corruptions with the Indian Sugar Mill Contract and the Chinese Contract, hence he was murdered for his knowing too much
When Ralph resigned, was he scared of his death?
Tell us JalilBhai
2 months ago the agreements to allow for local elections were ratified. Ramoutar is playing his cards carefully, he is considering a snap general elections instead.
So why are you blaming the opposition when its the PPP who is afraid to hold local govt elections. G/twn and most other municalipities are a mess because there the electorate have not had a chance to replace incompetents. But we see that instead of resolving this problem by hosting elections the PPP is folisting its own people on the electorate and then screaming race when they reject these people because they didnt vote for them.
It is pure nonsense to hold a snap election when what is most crucial is local govt elections.

Only man put to up a lame excuse, and he knows that his excuse was lame Minister of Finance Dr Ashni Singh stated âI hear Mr. Forbes speak of the scourge of corruption and I would urge some caution in perpetuating at a rigorous level [such statements]â There was no response for Donald Ramotar. Forbes calls a spade a spade.

ALL THESE ARE LIKE GIVING FIP MOTILALL TO BUILD A ROAD: JAGDOE IS PROBABLY LAUGHING TO THE BANK

It is pure nonsense to hold a snap election when what is most crucial is local govt elections.
They are to blame since 1998 of delay by not showing up for meetings to ratify the Herdmanston accord. Now that they are threatened by a snap election and losing their power in parliament, they rush to ratify the accord to deflect away the impending loss of power. But the PPP has bigger fish to fry with a snap elections. The local election will be next year. The country waited 15 years, they can wait a few more months.
They are to blame since 1998 of delay by not showing up for meetings to ratify the Herdmanston accord. Now that they are threatened by a snap election and losing their power in parliament, they rush to ratify the accord to deflect away the impending loss of power.

Look at this logically. Yiou say that local govt elections arent heppening because the PNC didnt show up to meetings. Well they did and Ramotar has had a bill on his desk for TWO MONTHS and refuses to sign. And clearly he refuses to sign as he fears what will happen to the PPP in LOcal govt elections.
We have municipalities in total confusion as local governance has ceased to exist. Most normal people would think that local govt electiosn would be way more important than a snap poll. And indeed the PPP is terrified of a snap poll as they fear that they will suffer the same embarrassment that their buddy Kamla has in Tdad.
