Come here Billy and defend your FAT GOAT.

Was acting Foreign Minister Priya Manickchand coached by ex-Foreign Minister now PPP leader Clement Rohee?

He was the most undiplomatic top diplomat in Guyana's history.

These people have no ethics.  On a man's independence celebration in his house you want to insult him.

I would have asked the Marines to throw she rass our by she G-string.

Well I do not know if a G-string can fit on a FAT GOAT.

i hear her g-string is make out of rice bags

Priya Manickchand booed at America’s 4th July reception

…attempts to humiliate US Ambassador

In what can only be the most shocking abuse of hospitality and a disregard for the diplomatic norms, Guyana’s Acting

Priya Manickchand

Foreign Minister, Priya Manickchand, last evening launched into an attack on United States Ambassador, Dr. D. Brent Hardt. And for her efforts she was soundly booed by the invitees.
The occasion was the observance of America’s 238th anniversary of its independence.  Just two days earlier, Ambassador Hardt, addressing a youth forum called Blue Caps, was critical of the Guyana Government for its failure to hold Local Government elections.
This so rankled the ruling People’s Progressive Party that yesterday, it issued a statement that chided Ambassador Hardt for meddling in the internal affairs of a sovereign government. Minister Manickchand extended this criticism when she shared the podium at the American Independence Anniversary, last night.
Early in her speech she lauded Ambassador Hardt for his comments about Guyana. “For a very long time, we were a country that lacked free and fair elections. Thanks to your good record keeping and declassification of documents, we have confirmed that those elections were presented by external forces effectively retarding the democratic process.”
She then launched into an attack on the comments of the Ambassador but not before she had noted the absence of democracy in some agencies. She said that there is a situation today where Guyana must comply with certain international acts.
“Our banks will soon have to comply” with a measure that will see local commercial banks providing information to the United States Government on American citizens banking in Guyana.
“We have to comply with what Big Brother wants.” By the same measure, Guyana cannot expect the United States to accept or to comply with actions demanded against it. Antigua and Barbuda secured a ruling by the World Trade Organisation against the United States which is still to comply with that decision.
Below is an excerpt of her address at the independence anniversary celebration.

Ambassador Brent Hardt

“The occasion is mine tonight to reflect specifically on the activities of the representative of the US Government here, Ambassador Brent Hardt. Less than three years ago, Ambassador Hardt was made welcome to Guyana.
During those years of his posting in Guyana, Ambassador Hardt has contributed to a tension-filled relationship with the Government of Guyana. These areas of tense relationships have attracted considerable efforts on our part to address oftentimes without much success.
Ambassador Hardt’s most recent assault on the President and Government of Guyana in his remarks to the recently created NGO, the Blue Caps, has in our judgment, gone beyond the boundaries of professionalism and diplomacy.
For a professional Foreign Service Office, with the appointment of an Ambassador, to make such declarations, accusations, allegations and innuendos about the Executive President of Guyana, or of any country for that matter, is to our mind, totally unacceptable.
As one reads his diatribe against our President, our outrage mounts at the liberties he has taken with diplomatic conventions, commitment to accuracy and sense of occasion. This situation, I report, is intolerable. The Ambassador has been associated with a dedicated attack on the President and the government on the holding of Local Government elections.
The Ambassador has been supported in his…this ill-conceived venture, by the opposition section of the media and his colleagues in the diplomatic corps. We have not lost any efforts in correcting their hopelessly jaundiced views of the situation.
His superficial grasp is revealed by his misinformation about the Bill. Worse yet, is his reluctance to have views of the hosting of Local Government elections corroborated by other knowledgeable stakeholders, other than the Chairman of GECOM. The Ambassador’s behaviour is totally unacceptable.
It is this government’s pledge that it will not accept such. The superpower status of the United States is acknowledged. Ambassador Brent (sic) has probably presented Guyana’s…America’s credentials as a model nation for the rest of the world. His reported declarations to the Blue Cap (sic) NGO, made in his presentation, unreservedly laud America and its democratic norms and practices. All of us here know better.
Among us here, the memory of 1950 to 1960 US interference in Guyana persists. All of us here…are daily reminded of the consequences of America’s zeal to democratize the world…And the consequences and the people of Guyana live those consequences until today. Those consequences question the Ambassador’s moral correctness in lecturing Guyana and for that matter the rest of the world.
For the Guyana Government, his nuanced resort to justifying insurrection in his remarks to the NGO Blue Caps, and here tonight, is profoundly disturbing. A collection of young minds being invited to such a mind-set for future engagement with an elected government warrants our immediate repudiation.
Like his President, Barack Obama, there exists a red line. This Ambassador has crossed that line. Unlike his President, we are resolved, we have resolved and we so advise our partners, with whom we share conventions and symbiotic relations, this is our red line. Behaviour such as this would not be tolerated within the boundaries of mutual respect, diplomatic relations and inter-government collaboration.
In closing, we extend warmest greetings and congratulations to President Obama and the people of America on this historic occasion. I thank you.
Please allow me to propose a toast to the President of America and the people of the United States of America. Happy Independence.”
Soon after, in an unprecedented move, the Ambassador returned to the podium to proclaim. “Oh, What a send off!”  He then challenged the government to provide evidence that he has not acted in the best interest of the country and its people.
He leaves Guyana in August. And Minister Manickchand, in the company of Presidential Advisor Gail Teixeira, staged a walk-out from the reception.

Anyone who can't tell the difference between a fat cow and a fat goat must need new glasses. Just look at those udders and rump. No goat has such big ones.

Minister Manickchand, in the company of Presidential Advisor Gail Teixeira, staged a walk-out from the reception.

These clowns should step out into a 14 wheeler on their way out, Guyana would be best rid of their cave woman's attitude.

Billy Ram Balgobin, come on, step out of your cave and defend your women.

Lets wait and see what other reports would come out of this. People on GNI are known to show reports that are in favor of their party. It's what you call "confirmation bias".  

I don't defend anyone without ascertaining the facts. PPP leaders can be careless in dealing with diplomats and the press. Their foes are always lo capitalize on any mishap they make .

Myth is like the donkey with bridle, bit, and harness pulling the AFC cart. 

Arte you Billy trying to refute this?

This year, we are supporting a historic local elections process. Guyana has a national government and it has a form of regional government, but constitutionally, it is supposed to have local government. The last local elections, however, were held in 1994, so there has been a long gap. Basically, this means that there is no local government. I have been encouraging my British, Canadian and European Union counterparts to speak out and write joint op-eds to encourage the parties to come together and prepare a foundation for local elections. 

&&&&&&&

Read humpty dumpty Piya.

The blasted man got the fully support of the Americans, Canadians, British and Europeans..

When he spoke on Local Government, he spoke with the power of the whole of the United States Government.

This jackazz Piya think that a Yale Graduate will come to a banana republic to get into a gutter fight?

She better think again, this man got pedigree.

It was with great insistance from his BOSSES in DC that he issued those statements.

This man is the creme-de-la - creme of American society.

Dumb-Ass, I told you stay in school a bit longer. You need to train your pigs to behave better in public and not like cuss down hos.  Dumb-Ass.

Surely, the USA can find from thousands of decent minded Guyanese a credible leader. Just let the CIA orchestrate their demise.

The Jagans set up Jagdeo to head the PPP to appoint morons to represent Guyana. Guyanese must be real bad to deserve such embarrasments.

Oh my! Look at Mr KishanB/Brian Teekah abusing the female minister. Me would not be surprise if you is a wife beater. 

All of you who degraded the two woman is a reminded that women must be respected at all times and to be addressed in a proper manner. Well, the AFC scorn for woman is part of their history, and APNU seem to walk the same line. I have to forgive the followers who find women to be fat cows and goats. All of us come from mothers and most of us have sisters. Should we insult them same in public?

I have to stand up for Priya here. The AFC/PNC seems to be displaying reckless and shameful behaviour by attacking Priya. Could you imagine calling a female AFC/PNC  MP a black goat ?

I would be the first to condemn calling an AFC or PNC female MP a black goat.

Most of these guys don't have home training as far as I can see.

how RACE come into dis bai?

ahhhhhhhhhh . . . "de smartness"

The more I read and listen to what the opposition says the more I realize that they are a bunch of useless politicians that have nothing positive to offer Guyana. 

Goats and cows generally act in a very mannerly way. It's an insult to goats and cows to call this uncouth moron a goat or a cow.

A woman must be respect just like a man must be respected when he or she conducts themselves respectfully.

Carry yourself like a Lombard Street hore and expect to be treated like a hore.

I deliberate left out a letter.

This has nothing to do with woman, this has everything to do with how one conducts oneself.

Even to pigs.  Look how quickly Priya and Gail ran from the function after they were booed and jeered by their fellow Guyanese.

Remember this?  Did it happen under the GOAT's watch.

Look at that face, it like a milking SOW.

The man from Yale, held his composure and smiled throughout the entire cuss down.  She is the female version of cuss down Bharat BUNDARIE!

Who the hell she think she is to talk to a diplomatic like that publicly when he is highlighting their wrong doing.  Give the people their local government elections.

Gov’t cautions diplomats to stay within boundaries of conventions : –to also observe diplomatic norms, professional behaviour

  This Ambassador is doing the job of the people of Guyana; we are the ones that should be standing up and shouting in the streets. And because we are not doing so... people like Priya think she can walk all over us with her adapted Jagdeo cuss down style. What a shame on us all that this person think she is right; but then she is part of a cabal that is so out of touch with reality - We cannot go on like this!

  In this case Manickchand is correct in the face of so many Guyanese who have been transformed into servile serfs of US Capitalist Imperialism and the fiat US dollar. The US Ambassador conduct while in Guyana has impeached Guyana sovreignity as an independent nation. The Ambassador seems to imagine that Guyana is another US colony of which he is Governor. Tell him to disappear Minister Priya Manickchand. If the US has acquired its Independence from Britain 238 years ago. Guyana acquired its Independence from Britain only 48 years ago and has not and will not become a US Satellite as what the US is being doing to Iraq, Libya, Uganda, Kenya,CAR among others. No one must be permitted to sell Guyana's independence, ever. Many have died for independence.

    In most democracy, there is nothing to fear from the change of government. The PPP blew the opportunity to bring a strong and virbrant intitutionized democracy with all it values and merits to this people of this country.

  Well, well Priya, Freedom House puppeteers failed abysmally to get Brendt Hardt to toe their line and join the PPP bandwagon. News reports state that he bluntly refused to sing the new PPP anthem: "I'm Your Puppet", which goes like this: I'm your puppet on a string, you can do me anything. I'm a puppet on a string and I do what they want me to do...I'll do funny things if you want me to, I'm your puppet. Oh I'm yours to have and to hold, Darlin' you've got full control, of your puppet..." Compliments of Dionne Warwick, James & Bobby Purify, Elton John & Marvin Gaye.

  Guyanese should hang their heads in collective shame over these continued displays of impropriety at the level of government. The vulgar, cuss down disposition of this group knows no bounds, and has now become an international embarrassment. This was the goodly gentleman's official outgoing reception at his residence, for crying out loud, where this woman was an invited guest and not a party brouhaha at Babu John. Ms Manickchand would do well to observe a red line for indecency and and uncivil conduct with respect to the office she represents. Someone needs to pull this woman aside and counsel her. But then again, she only appears to be taking the lead from her immediate superiors.

  What an embarrassment to the actual Foreign Minister Carolyn Rodrigues, to the PPP Gov't, the Opposition and the nation as a whole. This is a textbook display of arrogance, disrespect and bottom house mentality. She probably mistook the venue for some PPP bottom house meeting or maybe Babu John

  Priya where is your diplomacy, class, decorum and tact?? Oh shucks I forget, you too egotistical, arrogant and power drunk to even consider such behavior as a Minister of Government.

  Why didn't they let Mr. Sam Hinds act as Foreign Minister instead?

  Well Priya if that was your action, you certainly recieved an appropriate reaction from the people of Guyana....which you probable were told to expected. So the party has made you the attack dog. Priya believe you me, you are not up to it. The next time the party ask you to attack USA, it's best you call out sick. If USA wants it could send Gy back to the dark ages like Cuba. Just by simple placing limits on remittance sent to Gy could send the entire Gy economy into a downward spiral. 
  IT'S BEST YOU KISS AND MAKE UP.......USE THAT RUBY RED LIPSTICK YOU ALWAYS WANTED TO WEAR BUT KEPT FOR THAT SPECIAL OCCASION....WELL THE OCCASION IS NOW .......EXPLAIN TO USA THAT WAS A MOMENT OF WEAKNESS...JUST A LOVER'S SPAT.....YOU WILL BE FORGIVEN BUT CERTAINLY NOT FORGOTTEN.......

  She deserved to be booed.
  Manickchands' presentation was crudely immature, and lacked sensitivity. The raw tirade did not help an already tense relationship which we are trying to patch together. She is obviously not suited fot these occasions much less, serving as our representative in foreign affairs. She should be reined in. Loose cannons do not serve our purpose.

    It is standard operating protocol in dictatorial parties to first have clearance from leadership on public talking points before saying anything. Ergo, Manickchand could not have gone and said what she said without her remarks first being vetted by the PPP, so while your call that her remarks lacked sensitivity is on the money, it surprisingly failed to account for party protocol. Maybe you are one of the PPP bloggers who are slowly realizing these are not isolated incidents but part of a broader context of established behaviors that can only get worse.

  Again and again, the evidence on public display shows that this cabal will not go quietly into the night. This Minister sure doesn't understand that indeed she's a public servant and not a public ruler. 
  Protocol Miss Lady, protocol and diplomacy are the sole reason for funding a Foreign Service Ministry in the first place. 
  I can't fathom how being appointed a public servant administrator, please note, not elected - fat chance, in that sorry mudflat of a country, could embolden a marginal actor at best, to take the curtain call then vomit on center stage.

  Manickchand should refuse to travel to the US in the future as a sign of protest.

  She should also encourage Robert Persaud to rescind the anchor baby citizenship his children attained in the US.

  This has to be the most disgraceful behavior by a Minister of any government and this demonstrates clearly to the people of this country the arrogance of this government.

  Shame Shame Shame

  This shows that in parliament Trotman was wrong in not forcing this woman to apologize to Jaipaul sharma.

This lack of civility, as demonstrated by this impolite government official, representing her country to her Host, once more demonstrates the crudeness of this corrupt PPP government. All guyanese, especially those residing in the USA, should raise their voices in condemnation against this latest act of vulgarity and barbarism by the PPP government, parroted by Ms. Manickchand.

  Normally, Guyanese attendees at such a function would be both supportive of their minister and circumspect in behavior to both the minister and the host, even if the minister's remarks don't resonate with the thinking of the Guyanese attendees.

  But when Guyanese boo and jeer their own minister at such a function held by a foreign diplomat, and obviously attended by other countries' diplomats and dignitaries, it is a manifestation of a growing disconnect between the people and their own government! My point is: The PPP no longer speaks for Guyanese!

  What more does the PPP want before it gets the message that it has literally lost the support and respect of many, perhaps most, Guyanese, whether at home or abroad? This is not about Manickchand, who continues to come across as the PPP's new political attack dog (pad); it is about an entire party that is fast descending into a quagmire of its own making.

  The US helped get rid of the PPP for ideological reasons in 1964. The US helped the PPP get back to power in 1992 after the PNC fouled up its opportunity to govern freely and properly. The US opened (and continues to open) its doors and arms to thousands of Guyanese, even as I write. So why is the PPP so openly adversarial to the US for trying to deepen the democratic process again?

  The PPP may not know or care to know that the more these political shenanigans between it and the US make the news, and especially with the focus being on elections and the role of the US in helping advance the process, it is the more the PPP is getting exposed to an increasing number of Guyanese as trying to deny Guyanese their constitutional right. Ergo, the PPP is hurting its chances of receiving support at the ballot box, because its future intentions as a dictator are being bared!

  Dis CUP gone ah falls!!

    Yous Uncle Sam is very worried about its present status among self respecting Nations . 
    Why are you not questioning the Ambassador Hardt's behavior as Dictatorial and Bully and Undiplomatic . Dis is the best America can do when Obama and team are allowed to choose Representatives for the American People and Nation Abroad and at Home .
    Good riddance to Hardt and all yous can keep a pichchu of him to worship .

  For the first time a politician show guts by going public on what most citizen of all Parties are saying.
  Sovereignty, sovereignty and sovereignty come first.
  Diplomats must know and respect the boundaries

  For the Opposition, getting into power on the cheap will not solve Guyana problems
  What was Amb. Brendt Hardt mission here?

    Most voters are represented by the Opposition. Most citizens want LGE. They have sovereignty too.

    One day you are blowing refreshingly cool air and the next you are spewing depressingly hot lava! How can you say Manickchand represents what most Guyanese in all parties are saying when the majority of Guyanese attending the function jeered and booed her? Then look how quickly Priya and Gail ran from the function - the Demerarawaves picture captures the shock on their faces and body language - realizing they were booed by their own people!

    The ambassador has laid a foundation on which the combined opposition and freedom-loving Guyanese must build to take back government from the criminally corrupt and dastardly dictatorial PPP. If the PPP wants to rely on China, let Guyanese rely on themselves with help from the West.

      Since when an Ambassador is mandated to lay foundations in the host country for Opposition Parties to remove a democratically elected govt?, Priya must be congratulated for standing up to a BULLY, ole people say lil axe does cut down big tree, Hardt tried hard to leave something for his buddies in the Opposition and failed,,,

  How dare she use such undiplomatic sentences at a diplomatic function? She urgently needs to attend finishing school.

    The gathering itself was more political gathering than a diplomatic one. When you organize diplomatic function, people act undiplomatically, they respect what is said and respond likewise. They don't jeer and boo at these functions. The government should rename Young street to that of Edward Sonwden Street in reconiction of the his stand in upholding democratic values of human rights and freedom

Normally, Guyanese attendees at such a function would be both supportive of their minister and circumspect in behavior to both the minister and the host, even if the minister's remarks don't resonate with the thinking of the Guyanese attendees.

But when Guyanese boo and jeer their own minister at such a function held by a foreign diplomat, and obviously attended by other countries' diplomats and dignitaries, it is a manifestation of a growing disconnect between the people and their own government! My point is: The PPP no longer speaks for Guyanese!

What more does the PPP want before it gets the message that it has literally lost the support and respect of many, perhaps most, Guyanese, whether at home or abroad? This is not about Manickchand, who continues to come across as the PPP's new political attack dog (pad); it is about an entire party that is fast descending into a quagmire of its own making.

The US helped get rid of the PPP for ideological reasons in 1964. The US helped the PPP get back to power in 1992 after the PNC fouled up its opportunity to govern freely and properly. The US opened (and continues to open) its doors and arms to thousands of Guyanese, even as I write. So why is the PPP so openly adversarial to the US for trying to deepen the democratic process again?

The PPP may not know or care to know that the more these political shenanigans between it and the US make the news, and especially with the focus being on elections and the role of the US in helping advance the process, it is the more the PPP is getting exposed to an increasing number of Guyanese as trying to deny Guyanese their constitutional right. Ergo, the PPP is hurting its chances of receiving support at the ballot box, because its future intentions as a dictator are being bared!

Dis CUP gone ah falls!!

MR Emile Mervin

I told Al YUh Ptriya is the Gal funh tell dem like it is.  KEEP OUT OF GUYANA INTERNAL AFFAIRS NOW!!!!

Then shut up and pass a no confidence motion and let the people decide. I have had enough of the opposition whining and complaining. Moses is still hiding in his backyard.

She is a hiprocrite and you is a hiprocrite. Where is LGE?

The PPP are the ones abusing the constitution and stifling democracy by not holding local government elections.
