The mask is off. After standing aloof from the head of state’s obsessions with the genus corvus for the last few weeks, and uttering appeasing noises about a willingness to work with the opposition should he be elected, PPP/C presidential candidate Donald Ramotar finally broke cover in Bartica last Saturday and revealed his true face.
Oh my goodness Cheddi!
Dear Editor, I would first of all like to quote from Michael Maxwell’s letter to KN headed ‘8% public servant pay increase is not what it seems,’ in which he states “… Jagdeo will retire like an Emperor with his ridiculous pension, gardener, cook, secretary, security guards, use of state motor vehicles, free travel the world over and more…” Mr Jagdeo’s need for employment may be redundant after such a magnanimous financial endowment.
Dear Editor, The Office of the Prime Minister has noted the repetitive efforts being made by the political opposition parties, and regurgitated by much of the media, about the pension of President Bharrat Jagdeo, which would be the same as for all presidents.
Dear Editor, I wish to correct an inaccuracy published in your today’s issue (Thursday, November 3, 2011), under the caption, ‘Ronald Bulkan, Charles Ceres on APNU Slate.’
Dear Editor, Forget about the parties. Let’s examine the individuals. As election 2011 approaches I see no candidate that impresses me with the charisma of a president.
Dear Editor, As election campaigning intensifies in Guyana, it is fascinating to see the many developments occurring with regard to political defections, new alliances, and the numerous ‘endorsements‘ by some notable Guyanese of public, political and/or business eminence.
Dear Editor, Afrikans are a gravely misunderstood people and it is understandable why anyone who has not got rid of the brainwashing education would misunderstand even Afrikan enthusiasm.
Dear Editor, Within the borders of this country there is more talent than is recognized, but there are fewer opportunities than most other countries where talent is not a challenge to those in authority but expertise to be nurtured for the goal of all.
Dear Editor, I would like to declare that I will soon be putting an end to the seemingly unending speculation as to the party I will be supporting in the upcoming elections.
Dear Editor, President Dr Bharrat Jagdeo announced today in the media, twenty-five days before an impending general election, that the government would increase teachers, civil servants, and sugar workers’ salaries and wages, which could be consider laudable, deserved and most timely.
Dear Editor, Anyone intimately, or even cursorily, familiar with our nation’s founding father, our former President and my grandfather, Dr Cheddi Berret Jagan can effortlessly attest to his modest upbringing and humble, down-to-earth nature.
Dear Editor, I refer to Mr Rakesh Rampertab’s correspondence, ‘Party and press seem to have become one‘ (SN, Nov 4), which in language that is unambiguous cites me for a moral failing.
Dear Editor, The political parties‘ manifestos need a new framework of government which recognises frankly that it is the duty of the state to intervene actively in the affairs of its disabled people with a view to guaranteeing them some minimum level of decent living, and providing them with the means of achieving this.
Dear Editor, Bharrat Jagdeo is fast descending into buffoonery with campaign rhetoric which is inflammatory, vindictive, petty and callous, and which is only surpassed by its downright illogicality and crass foolishness.
As the political drama in Greece brings the European debt crisis into sharp focus, it is clear that the consequences of a Greek default will extend much further than previously thought.

Khemraj Ramjattan has given President Bharrat Jagdeo further incentive to continue, in his own unique style, to campaign hard to put the PPP/C back in power.
Dear Editor, The PPP/C campaign arrives in Lethem this weekend and with it will come some of the biggest names of the party, all attempting to woo the electorate.
Dear Editor, My connection with Queen’s College, Guyana, has proven to be a great opportunity of grace and honour.
