Corruption has moved to a scale of alarming proportions

Dear Editor,
The PPP/C claimed that they fought for this democratic process, but they’re behaving worse than Burnham and the PNC, which they proclaimed to be dictatorship. They clearly lost the majority in parliament, but refuse to accept the reality.
The crimes they commit have no place in a democracy, in others countries, leaders and senior government officials, are being investigated based on simple allegations.
But with this government, allegations are serious and more glaring and they are being allowed to be swept under the carpet.
This points to corruption on a massive scale. It seems that the law enforcement officials are powerless to act, and would appear that they are acting in concert. The implications can of this scenario if allowed to continue  can have serious results at all levels.
The corruption has moved to a scale of alarming proportions that never has been seen in this country, and the contempt that is shown to the Guyanese people is beyond comprehension.
Look at the mansions that is being built, and the idiotic responses as to how they came to have so much wealth, is utter trash, we can do what we like they’re saying, for even the Attorney General, is for the wealthy.
So what do we do now? Wait for what?
Just to give readers a sample of the corruption that has happened in the past, and continuing to date,
The stone scam, dolphin scam, law books scam, lotto scam, duty free scam, visas scam, drugs scam,
Extra judicial killings, roger khan and the phantom squad, so named by the lunch man, and the big one,
The contracts, pharmaceuticals and construction, and this is not all.
I often wondered, why the European countries, and the USA, Canada and England continued to give this country monies to be administered by this corrupt administration? This boggles the mind.
I often wondered what they’re saying? What they can tell the people?
People with no legal source of income, are flaunting wealth like they won the lotto, which is not so.
