DEAR EDITOR,
Philip Bynoe’s conduct at the recent press conference held at the Guyana Forestry Commission deserves public condemnation. It should be explained to him that his conduct is the type Guyana could do without as we strive to transform our political landscape into one dominated by dialogue and civilized conflict resolution.
A few readers of my last letter (KN Aug 17; SN Aug 18) may be surprised at the manner in which I summarily dispensed with Finance Minister’s Half Year economic report for 2014. My analyses of Guyana’s economic performance and its management have been captured in my letters to the press dating back to September of last year.
To summarize them all, the PPP’s management of Guyana’s economic framework has crossed the line where the rule of law is the guiding principle. Its decision-making is guided by the principle of the preservation of its authority and the systematic branding of our psyche with its propaganda, the latter intent on obliterating the truth regarding its ultimate objective of pilfering and stealing Guyana’s resources, taxes and otherwise, through its various methods. It is irrelevant to produce any ‘sound’ economic analysis of its ‘numbers’, since the economics practiced by this government is the economics of thievery.
To do otherwise is to lend credibility to government’s activities, to void it of its white collar criminality, to deny and mislead the public, to say it is okay for the government to waste, misappropriate and steal our money and natural resources through its deliberate mismanagement of the issuance of Government contracts, its underhanded approval of investments across Guyana’s economics sectors, and the abuse of its economic might to stifle the free press.
In fact, the highlighting of all aspects of corruption, mismanagement, and abuses of government authority and office is the soundest and most accurate evaluation necessary for addressing deficiencies in economic management. And in this, by my own biased estimate, I have been unfailing, and will be. Because the PPP intends to cuckold Guyana throughout its (the PPP’s) entire existence, so that the Opposition’s supporters, currently the majority of Guyanese, will always be marginalized in this, and their generations to come. Our future is in our hands.
I wish to express my sore dissatisfaction with the actions of the Minister of Finance Singh and his Ministry, which have facilitated the outright loss of roughly $4.5 billion of our money. Guyanese have sacrificed a lot to pay our taxes, and through the Opposition, we disapproved of this spending in the first place. I would like to go on record as saying that I want my money back. The Minister can be released from his duties if the consensus so rules, but I want my money back.
