Not a broken country, with only dismal tales to tell. It is a country bravely moving upwards on a trajectory of better lives for all, gaining in economic and social standings in our Caribbean Region, proudly celebrating successes. But this is the country that is denied in this House. This is the country where people’s lives are misrepresented for narrow political gains.” Re: Hard Work NOT Drugs - ketchim - 04-05-2014 He picked up on a comment, from within the Opposition benches in Parliament during the 2014 Budget debate, that development was not achieved by the sweat and blood of hard working Guyanese people. “Our people invest in their country not drug lords,” The economy of Guyana is driven towards positive growth by these investors not the drug lords that some of our colleagues on the other side want to paint them all with the same brush. These are the hard, cold facts. When we speak loosely, we insult people like our rice farmers.” Re: Hard Work NOT Drugs - Captain - 04-07-2014 what about the remittance budget Re: Hard Work NOT Drugs - ketchim - 04-07-2014 Western Union Transfers and Barrels on de Wharf  : was NOT included in the 2014 Budget !
