What you are saying is all well and good emergencyrelief but please do not expect much from the American Government! For example:

1 Bernie Madoff’s Ponzi scheme criminally operated through Wall St to steal 50 BILLION US DOLLARS of investors’ money and the American Government only appears to be looking at Madoff.. No accomplices have been named!

2 This morning’s news has the soon-to-be ex-President Bush haranguing Russia to resume gas supplies to (the-pro-US) Ukraine in order to prevent a HUMANITARIAN DISASTER and yet, in the same breath the soon-to-be ex-President Bush is saying the Israelis are doing the right thing to bomb the civilian population of Gaza.

At the end of the day – the American and Canadian Governments will do the job that countries in the third world cannot – namely detect and apprehend major drug shipments to their countries. In addition they are in a better position to bring to light the involvement of government officials etc. of those countries that are involved in this kind of criminal activity…So right now we know that there are three men involved in this – but I cannot imagine how millions of dollars in illegal drugs were shipped from Guyana with only a few petty dealers involved – and government agencies had no knowledge of it and let it leave Guyana undetected. I find that hard to believe…

Comment: Finger the Custom Officials and CANU. For every dollar they recieve a thousand lives are affected. People, the state pays you good money to do your bad job. Respect your self, do not attempt to cover up.
Stop at being pawns.

Let’s assume hypothetically what you are saying is correct and apply it to your kids. Are you saying that because your kids may demand drugs in Canada the govt of Guyana should do nothing to prevent the export of drugs to encourage your kid’s habit?

Furthermore, USA and Cda spend billions per year trying to prevent drugs reaching their shores. They also provide billions in aid to poor narco trafficking nations like Guyana. Its the least these poor nations could do in return.

Finally, to put you out of your misery and ignorance, do you know that drug usage is growing heavily in Guyana? Should those nations that provide drugs to Guyanese who become addicts not be blamed because there is a demand in Guyana for their drugs? btw, there is a demand for guns in Guyana too. Should the govt allow guns to be acquired illegally and without restriction because of this demand?

The points you make are valid ones big fish.
There are no easy answers and certainly two wrongs do not make a right.
Furthermore I see you live in the UK (like me) and you may be aware that tobacco products are on the way to be outlawed here in the UK.
In a year or so, it will be illegal to display cigarettes for sale in the UK. Shops will still be able to sell them but they will not be able to display them. You can see where the UK Government is heading with this.

On the subject of alcohol, prohibition is unlikely as even in Muslim countries there is alcohol consumption being done ‘on the quiet’. Furthermore, the vast majority of people (including the Christian Church) like a little wine!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

it looks very much SO! how could HARD DRUGS ESCAPE THE EYES of good custom controle? They all have “A FINGER IN THE PAP” I think that the customs officrs should be held responsible for not doing the work that they are being paid for.

If there is no demand for these drugs then there won’t be any illegal shipment of these drugs. Where do all these drugs go to and why? Did you ever ask yourself these questions. Not too long ago,
President Gagdeo said that the United States of America is the largest drug users in the world. There is nothing the Guyanese people can do to stop this.

What did he say when RK and his body guards were captured in Suriname?
He said Rk should not be extradited, according to news.
Here is my calcuation: 3 (per month) X 12 (month)X 16 ( years) = ————————————–(fill in the blank space with your answer).
Who, the Police & CANU think they are fooling – saying that they are now going behind the persons involved since their pictures are published/printed.
I guess they are not going to go behind their own reps who supposed to have checked the containers before they depart port GT because they are not published/printed in the newspapers.

satish
i dont agree with legalised drugs but do you know alcol and cigret kill more people than drug. but they are legal only because these big country make them and make big money from them. guyanese people dont have no choice what can they do in guyana to make money all they crop is under water the eu telling them that they have to sell them their goods for what price the eu think is right. you should go guyana and c what these people are facing then talk
