News, photos, opinion and results from the Guyana General & Regional Elections be to held on May 11th, 2015.

The Chief Election Officer used information from the Returning Officers which had been subject to stakeholder scrutiny for the purpose of determining results

Dear Editor, As a Commissioner of Gecom, who was referred to as “one who voted in favour of the said declaration and publication of the said results” in relation to which the Chronicle and Guyana Times carried articles on Sunday, May 24, 2015, which articles were sourced to a press release of Commissioners Mangar, Shaw and Gunraj, I find it necessary to respond, since the said news houses did not find it necessary or prudent to seek my comment on a matter that has more than one side or interpretation.

Nepotism?

Dear Editor, I have read in the newspapers that Mr Granger has appointed his son-in-law Mr Dominic Gaskin of the AFC as Minister responsible for Business and Investment.

Early days

Normally new governments get a certain honeymoon period where early blunders are either overlooked or given an easy ride; however, the current administration may not be so fortunate.
