Dear Editor, The outcome of last week’s general elections in Guyana reminds me of what happened in Trinidad in 2001 as a result of a division in the ruling camp when a party stalwart was not on the party’s list of candidates.
Dear Editor, I wish to extend heartiest congratulations to President Donald Ramotar who led the PPP/C to a minority victory in the free, fair and open elections of November 28 last.
Dear Editor, This morning on Canadian National Radio, there was an excellent documentary on the minority outcome of Russia’s recent parliamentary elections, and the unpopularity of Vladimir Putin who until now has been gleefully attempting to stage a comeback.
Dear Editor, Re: ‘Ramotar adds few new faces, ministry to cabinet,‘ (SN, December 6), President Donald Ramotar did say that his cabinet will be comprised entirely of PPP/Civic members, except for the Prime Minister who came in on the new Civic arm in 1992 and Bishop Juan Edghill’s appointment to Minister within the Ministry of Finance.

Dear Editor, I am supporting the call for verification of the statements of poll (SOPs).
Dear Editor, The Private Sector Commission (PSC) is calling for the contesting parties to accept the results of the recently concluded ‘elections‘ declared by Gecom and in flagrant disregard of the legitimate call by APNU for a verification of Statements of Poll by Gecom and all the political parties as a pre-condition of their acceptance.
Dear Editor, Guyana’s democracy since Indepen-dence has been a work in progress.
Dear Editor, The rumour mill in Guyana is reputedly the most efficient and well-calibrated tool of destruction ever created by the malicious, the uneducated and the vindictive.
Dear Editor, Going by Gecom’s publication of the results of the National and Regional Elections one element that stands out is that the majority of the electorate has leaned heavily in favour of the candidate based on their ethnic identity.
Dear Editor, This election result has me reading the constitution. I recommend Guyanese take some time and read it too.
