thanks for enlightening this donut NeNe, this is the PPP defacto stance that everything happening in Guyana is worse in the US. They conveniently ignore the people to problem ratiios similar to when you hear many ppp supporters repeat the jagdeo line crime happens in the US too you dont hear them complaining about it.

Total hogwash to detract from their failure to protect the citizens of this country. When Ravi Dev was lambasting them several years back for failing to protect people from the marrauding gangs of protesters they labelled the man a racist and of course their supporters embraced that then too.

A form of chemical dependency. Disease of the brain or weakness of character? Those responsible for this dependency are however to be held accountable for their own actions.Only a weak individual would blame someone else for substance abuse by others.Only the weakness of the constitution would allow an individual to become a substance abuser. Those involved in substance abuse, instead of blaming others, or have others blame someone, should ask themselves.’I have to be honest to my own self.What world do I want? I know substance abuse leads to a loss of will power.Am I actually capable of choosing that non addictive world and being serious about it? Or, do I just abandon myself to the distractions and hope things are righted some way?’ Which it never does, but continues to go downhill.

Hey breadren,T’ve just read that we are a bunch of drug abusers and in the comments I’ve notice the negatives,even an advert of an affordable drug abuse treatment, none of these will solve the problem.(Question) Why do we do these things? Its just to make us happy. happiness is just a feel good emotion,and we have full control over how we feel.if I ask you to feel depressed,you could pull that off could’nt Ya,all you need to do ,is think of some bad experiance,Mind managment is
the anser. as a man thinketh,so is he.God bless.

Jack, this has nothing to do with living in the USA. Yes we have drug problems here as well but the incidence is higher in Guyana in relation to population. Your ignorance is showing why am I even responding to your drivel!!!

I have always said that for Guyanese to be able to survive under the PPP and the PHENC you have to be on something.

Thanks for confirming this Ramsammy.

I think that this minister is doing a good job with his limited resources and power in a government that is waiting until the boat is over the falls before it starts rowing(paddling or whatever).

NE NE YOU ARE IN THE USA , I PLACE THAT IS FAR BETTER THAN GUYANA YET PEOPLE THERE CONTINUE TO ABUSE SUBSTANCE. WOULD YOU BLAME THEIR GOVERNMENT TOO FOR THAT? YOU PEOPLE MAKE COMMENT’S FOR COMMENT SAKE. STOP DISGRACING GUYANESE AND SHOW THAT YOU WENT TO SCHOOL . SOMETIMES I AGREE THAT YOU HAVE TO BLAME THE GOVERNMENT BUT YOU PEOPLE TAKE IT TOO FAR SOMETIMES AND IT DOESNT MAKE SENSE JUST TO LET YOU KNOW.

I abuse books; I read too much. All over the house is books – in the kitchen, bathroom, toilet, bedroom, living rooms. But it’s better than having beer bottles and cigarette butts and ganja joints and drug utensils all over the place. Plus I’m healthier. And a wee bit smarter.

Those substances are not cheap. They would save on money and be in better health if they don’t use them.

Everybody is abusing something, drugs, sex, gambling you name it, but all in all this is a good initiative to highlight it and seek solutions.

What else is there for them to do? The government has turned a blind eye to the cocaine/marijuana trafficking so the people were given the go ahead to “light” up. Out of work, insufficient pay,corruption at all levels,free drug trade, moral decline and decay of the country – I ask again, what are the people to do?
