PPP/C must try meaningful consultations
Dear Editor,
Kaieteur News – The PPP/C needs to reassess its paternalistic approach to development. The Government approach (as in the case of gas-to-shore pipeline project, Amaila Falls Hydroelectric Project, ExxonMobil/Guyana oil contract) is more along the line of “We have decided that this is right for Guyanese, so we are going to do it regardless of what everyone thinks”.
When, in fact, the approach that the PPP/C Government needs to take is more MEANINGFUL CONSULTATIONS with Civil Society. The projects (MAY) be great for Guyanese, but unless there are more meaningful consultations, we will never get optimal return for Guyanese. This Government needs to start working in the best interest of Guyanese, and not only in the best interest of investors like ExxonMobil.
Yours faithfully,
Sean Ori
