There is only one party and one set of people in Guyana who have a history of dictatorship. There is only one party and one set of people in Guyana who have a history of starving Indians. There is only one party and one set of people in Guyana who have a history of violence and intimidation against Indians. There is only one party and one set of people in Guyana who have a history of betraying attempts to collate and unite the peoples of Guyana under one banner. And that party ain't the PPP and that set of people aren't Indians.

The PPP are still in shock that they have been defeated.
why? because they have been disconnected with reality and the voters!
In 1992 they won and defeated the monster called PNC.
Unfortunately, after Dr. J died they have slowly morphed into their own monster and lost touch with all reality!

One of the biggest mistakes the PPP made was trying to placate and appease a set of ungrateful wretches in the form of PNC people in Linden, and all the Amerindians, at the expense of looking after the people who voted and put them in power.
On my trip to Guyana in 2011 I took a trip to Linden/Wismar. All the streets there were perfectly paved, had street lamps, and they had just built a brand new public hospital complete with an elevator and state of the art operating theatre. Contrast that to the public hospital at Suddie on the Essequibo Coast which has been in a decrepit and dilapidated state and woefully understaffed.
And yet, every election these Lindeners overwhelmingly vote for PNC. Same thing the Amerindians. When I went to Mainstay Lake the govt had just recently built brand new houses for the Amerindian community living there. Every family had a brand new house. Meanwhile on the Essequibo Coast you have so many Indians living in dilapidated houses. And yet, every election the Amerindians overwhelmingly vote for PNC.
So Googs, maybe you do have a point in that the PPP were so caught up with appeasing these ungrateful wretches who were never ever going to vote for them that they neglected to take care of their own people.
