It may seem to Guyanese that oil issues are coming to a head, that is, to some conclusion.
They are not. We have to be prepared for a long and tough slog on our journey to get a fair deal for the working people of Guyana, and to finally start transforming the governance apparatus of our country.
For us to benefit from our own oil wealth, or from any of our wealth, be it gold, bauxite, etc, we need to reduce the 50-year ongoing theft by parasitic elites (both political and private sector), who sometimes have been in cahoots with international sharks. We need to finally start dismantling this tragic system created by Burnham’s PNC and perfected by Jagdeo’s PPP.
