Bai...I am much more worried by drug pushers than the army. I am much more bothered about the destabilizing influence of US$1.2 bill in external debt to finance four projects in the next three years. Much more concerned about the stealing of public funds and the bad sequencing and implementation, all adding more unnecessary debt to pay off and diminish the ability to do what is necessary in the future. The AFC no doubt understands the need to see all Guyanese share in the burden of the defence forces. But if you talk to the average Guyanese they will tell you they don't see a reserve of black men in uniform coming to suppress them. The days for that bogeyman are over. Their main concerns center around the outright theft of public funds and a completely corrupt and drugs-infiltrated police force. 

That's a distraction TK, a cop-out from the real political issue.  You guys are way out in left field.  You avoid the political hot-potatoes as you know you cross the PNC and will get pelted.

TK, you are in denial and you know it.  Many Indians switched back to the PPP in the days running up to elections when they saw the attitude of the PNC constituency.  They smelled a rat and they were right.  What a con job and you deny.  You know very well what I talk, you were there, so stop burying your head in the sand.

The promise of the PNC GDF cadres campaigning in masse last election was to ensure the next time the PNC takes power, along with the GDF, never ever to let power slip away again.  They encouraged their people to go out and attend and cheer AFC meetings as long as the target of the AFC was the PPP.

I think a couple AFC Indian boys attempted to criticize the PNC and had bottles, bricks and stick thrown at them.  They had to run out of Albouystown.

you ran like a lil biatch from the other thread after being battered into shameful submission on the "GDF" nonsense

now you pop up here, drug_b like, pretending that this is a 'live' issue

You tend to pay attention as my comments on this issue cut deep and straight to the heart of the matter.

PPP is never getting 50% again. Get used to it. 

Because the two main parties are the greatest benefactors.  The AFC cannot change that.  The PPP (Jagan) missed the boat when he had the moral authority and high ground to work on bridging the divide.  If he was visionary and strategic, he should have addressed starting day 1 as ethnic security trumps anything else.

The PNC's response with Slo-fiah Mo fiah followed by mayhem and massacres of mostly Indians have ensured this will be the state for sometime. No other leader has the political currency and moral high ground to bridge the divide.

The PPP (Jagan) should have reached out to the South Africans (Mandela, Tutu, etc) to come in and help us build a reconciliation model.  He did not, so we are like the Congo rather than South Africa.

Long live the great hero Cheddie Jagan.

They should try,  give them credit.  However, their one-sided positions and hatred for the GoG does not help the cause.  People have stepped back as they have become bellicose and not seen as a middle of the road option.  They are now seen part and parcel of an PNC axis to back-door power.

AS DG would say, "Perhaps, perhaps not". People also see them as their voice  as we recently seen in PPP strongholds such as BBP and West Coast Berbice. Changes are happening.

It's most likely that the PPP will open the back door to power for the PNC and shut out the AFC.
