Quote:According to his sister Jesse Burnham who distributed a provocative pamphlet, warning against her brother, “Beware of my Brother Forbes,†young Burnham’s ambitious list of goals includes becoming mayor of Georgetown, chief justice, prime minister, and the non-existing position of prime minister of the West Indies, reflecting the canvassing nature of his political inclination. Busy with studies in London, Burnham maintains contact with home activities via letters to his mother, one that expresses his disapproval of the rise of Indians in commercial Georgetown; “I feel strongly about the Indian attitude but the time has not come for me to broadcast these feelings and muddy my waters after all
so what!
all sorst of people have ambitions to do all sorts of things in life. can they do it..will others let them do it if they will lose or be negatively effected ::confused::
and ll of you guys and your people have ulterior motives to control this or that..and do so control clandestinely when you have gained control.
I have avoided bringing Guyana in this discussion..
I want to show how countries run by Pan African are at this level in the Caribbean .
The Group of 10 leaders who started the talks about Federation ..how many were Indians,
Chinese or Syrians?
Who caused it to fail over 50 years ago ..today countries are signing free trade deals and
making Unions ..we had that opportunity now it lost for ever .Look at a useless organization
Caricom...we can even agree on our own Caribbean Court of Appeal.
Lets blame slavery ..its sound fantastic.
JACKASS, A-HISTORICAL, IGNORANT NONSENSE!
chin does not understand the west indies in relation to the world... and has a superficial understanding of economics, of sociology or the study of society.
that nonsense does not explain the west indies and its failure...if failure is what it is.
as far as I see the west indies is functioning perfectly from the angle or interest of those who control. it is functioning perfectly for west indian chinese investments. they do not want any change at all. how can they.
any progressive change in the west indies would limit or eliminate chinese plunder of the region
chin is a hypocrite whether he is conscious of it or not
the west indies has failed from the angle and interest of ordinary west indians. they are the ones still without jobs, education, oportunity generally.
that is why they always moving to where there is some energy to be had, taking big risks with their lives for a chance at a job and a decent life. those Titty forests and swamps used to be full of things if they bite you you are done. no cure!
cui bono! who benefits from the west indies as a disunited, fragmented region at odds with itself?
thats right..who the hell benefits. discover that and see why we are not united and progressing and who is responsible

Mapoui , Chillax !
You do know whom this poster was b4 reIncarnation ? :-\
chairman I cant see Guyana as an isolated case.... a unique spot in the world. I consider Guyana a lucky country thats what.
in countries where there had been communist threat, where communist had won elections and legally formed government the USA went in and overthrew these governments and instituted a reign of terror.
such terror involved identifying all the communists, lining them up and shooting..by the thousands, hundreds of thousands.. until the capitalists felt the communist threat was expunged.
Chile was a high profile case...Nicaragua....indeed all of central america as a focal point. in east timor they wiped out half of the population. in Iran they overthrew the democrat Mossedegh, instituted the Shah who himself built a massive police state and internal terror from 1953 to 1979 .
Jagan and Burnhan were socialist. they are reputed to have done people oriented things early..and professed openly socialist ideology. somebody explain that situation to me..when the both men split, why and who was behind it?
then explain why the anglo/american invading interest did not kill off the communists, destroy Jagan and his party?
they had done it everywhere else and were to do it many times since..up to recently in Libya, Iraq, Yemen, Somalia etc. so why not British Guiana?
so Guyana got a dictator. relative to what had been done to the rest of the world for the same reason Burnham was mild.
you still have to prove that that race riot was a calculated Burnham policy that resulted in the deaths of 170 indos and afros..and much property destruction and ethnic cleansing?
you see there are forces based on class who dominate the world and whose hands have been involved in Guyana before, during and after Jagan and Burnham, and down to ramatar currently...who are far more culpable for our history than any of those politicians..even Burnham.
I detest burnham! but I am no fool to be sidelined by racial feelings and emotion not to see the big picture. if you do not see whats actually going on chairman and your true interest in as big a relief as possible you will make mistakes that will be disastrous.
but you can do as you please. what you do is not my affair. all I do is state my case. thats enough
