Dear Editor,
If the PPP has done poorly in terms of performance and it has when it comes to governing Guyana to the benefit of all its people, let us take a moment to recognise, appreciate and congratulate the opposition for its tremendous and laudable efforts in holding the government accountable.
The opposition coalition has done in the one year it has been out of power an excellent job albeit with limited resources at its disposal. It has been shut out of the mainstream media. The persecution of its Members of Parliament and supporters especially continue, yet the opposition coalition demonstrated a sort of rare passion in navigating the difficult political storm and is seen as robust in its representation of not only its constituents but the Guyanese people in general.
If the coalition’s performance in the first year is to be measured against the backdrop of a return to the seat of power in four years’ time, we may be seeing a government that will transform Guyana in ways never seen before. Recognition must also be given to activists, opposition supporters and the diaspora for bolstering the work of the opposition by relentlessly and tirelessly taking the fight to the confined, uncomfortable and oppressive yard space of a racist dictatorship.
Never before in the history of our nation have we experienced the improvisation of positive retaliation with little or no financial support. While the doors of mainstream media have been closed to the opposition and activists; social media platforms have exploded in ways that we see the masses immersed themselves into its “so called talk-shows” and other captivating fiery programmes exposing the evils of the PPP. The PPP and its government seems glued to social media and its ever increasingly popularity thus rendering their well-financed mainstream media entities, impotent.
The first year for the opposition with regards to its sterling performance in representing the Guyanese people must not go unnoticed, but it is most encouraging that on the commencement of year two, the winds of mass protests and demonstrations are on the horizon hinting to the corrupt PPP that Guyana will not tolerate mismanagement and the shutting out of a section of society from the social and economic bounties there to be shared equitably. One is forced to wonder what year three will yield.
Yours truly,
Norman K. Browne
