Following the announcement the PPP/C has named Mr Donald Ramotar as its presidential candidate the Guyana Review will be seeking an interview with him.

DG: A great many people might be unaware of the fact that I spent a major part of my life as a military officer – an experience that gave me first-hand experience of working and living among ordinary people. I do not think that I have ever really retired from understanding the forces that shape events in this country. I have deep concerns about the plight of the poor and the prospect of joblessness facing our youths.
