Dear Editor,
I attach congratulatory remarks to APNU+AFC, first posted on my Facebook page some 23 hours ago:
The Guyanese people through the sheer power of their vote have brought forth to this land a new paradigm in Guyana’s politics; where no more would any one political party have an exclusive monopoly over the political destiny of any ethnic group. At the May 11, 2015 General and Regional Elections, the people spoke loud and clear about national unity as their critical priority, and they did this through fracturing the traditional support bases of the two major political parties.
And for those who are reluctant to accept and engage this new historical reality must be deemed to be in denial.
But for now, all Guyanese should congratulate the APNU+AFC coalition on a well-deserved electoral win which places it in the driver’s seat to advance nation building, fully inclusive of the poor and vulnerable. Let me also use this window of opportunity to wish the coalition well in the formidable tasks that lie ahead.
Yours faithfully,
Prem Misir
