Dear Editor,
My two bits for whatever it is worth. It may not get pass pending but in reading what others are saying I can assure you that I am in sync with what is taking place in Guyana. I believe that a pay increase is necessary for all Guyanese.
There is need for a living salary to be paid to each and every working Guyanese. There is a study presently underway and therefore all and sundry should have waited until they were finished with that study.
Then what ever they would have given themselves would have been above board and in the excitement of the underdog getting his bone all would have been acceptable.
I cannot accept the PPP’s hypocrisy. They are just being wicked and vicious. They not only gave themselves increases but they stole this country blind and all the big wigs stood by and said nothing.
Now they are out of the woodwork crying foul. People who were blind and dumb are now out to cry foul.
Few are those that are prepared to speak out against the ills of Jagdeo and his cabal. I know that there are more decent people out there that could say to Jagdeo look what you have brought on us with you racist ranting and your thieving ways.
Jagdeo could afford to refuse decent money; he has accumulated enough to last him for many lifetimes. All Guyanese are entitled to a proper salary and that will be my argument until they gave us a proper salary.
In 1999 when the Public Service Union took industrial action and were successful in their bid for arbitration it turned out that what they were awarded Jagdeo refused to give and with Yarde’s diluted radicalism, the Public Service Union was decapitated.
Some fighters are now overseas and the others who were able to carry that battle have moved on.
Yarde is still there with the question as to when he would recognize term limits. With regard to the Jagdeo/Rohee spat; this is just pretending the real falling out is imminent when that comes we will see what that horrible man used to say: when rouges and vagabonds fall out good men come into their own. In the mean while let us keep praying for our beloved country. Keep looking up. JESUS is coming soon.
