Healing of this kind needs, wound care specialists and none is yet available for us. We will continue to hemorrhage and deteriorate. In the PPP hands there will be no intervention. They do not think they have a sick patient on their hands. In APNU hands there is a glimmer of hope.

I suggest that it is time to question why elections in Guyana generate more tension and desperation than is true elsewhere in the English speaking Caribbean.

 

Every where else election held, votes counted, winner announced and back to normal.  Almost always the same day of the election, or at the latest very early the following morning.

 

No need for boarding up stores. No need (except in Jamaica with its history violence)  for military patrols.  And even in Jamaica these days, little or no violence or serious tension.

 

No where else does their need for orchestration as to when to announce the results.  No where else does a political party needed to adopt military measures to prevent unrest when its supporters are provoked.

 

Not Guyana.  There are serious flaws and social problems of perceived exclusion, and issues of governance which need to be addressed.

 

And this is regardless as to whether the PPP wins 182k to 152k or APNU wins by 182k to 152k.

 

Folks can put their heads in the sand and pretend.  Guyana has SERIOUS social problems of perceived exclusion.
