PNCR-PPP/C comparison will show the facts

TIMES INT'L

Dear Editor,
The People’s National Congress Reform (PNCR) is claiming credit in an area that the party had little or no interest in. It boldly announced that it aided in the development of Amerindian people, during its stint in office, from 1964-1992.
The PNC demitted office in 1992 and this means that in 25 years, nothing visible was done. Now look where this particular situation is – the actual land demarcation and titling, the Hinterland Scholarship Programme, the Solar Panel Project and the One Laptop per Family Project.
Today, because of the hard work of the ruling People’s progressive Party/ Civic (PPP/ C) since 1992, Amerindians are enjoying Guyana to the highest level.
We have health facilities and personnel in the interior, input into sports and culture, and even the returning of Indigenous peoples to their villages, to serve, after having been heavily invested in.
Exposing more of the bare-facedness of the PNCR, I have to ask who was responsible for the near-starvation of Guyana for a very long time? Cost of living was so high, people resorted to all kinds of illegalities and the back-track operation really flourished.
Things like split peas, flour, sardines and even straws for drinking were quite extinct. Someone must now make a table and compare every period and every sector what obtained during the era of the PNCR versus the PPP/ C. The balance sheet will show the reality of how really terrible the PNC was.
Regards,
Samuel Gouveia
