IT is good to read about government programmes such as the Core House Pilot, under the Government of Guyana/IDB, Low Income Settlement Two Programme (LIS2). Two questions come to mind: One, does the opposition see this as a good thing and an indication of some progress, and secondly, why are they not seen to be more actively supporting this and other projects that seem to benefit low-income families?.
It seems to an independent observer, that opposition members should be more involved in such projects as part of the job they are paid to do, while they seek the next jobs they want. Guyanese need an opposition that will give support for programmes that benefit them, offer constructive criticism, make solid proposals and participate fully in ensuring that programmes benefit all in a sound fiscal and efficient manner.
Voters want to feel that who they may vote for, show by their actions more than their words, that they can offer new or better programmes and suggest meaningful changes to government proposals that provide better policies in a more equitable and effective way.
