Editor’s note: As part of the newspaper’s contribution in the run-up to the November 28 general election, the presidential candidates of the political groupings represented in Parliament have been invited by Guyana Publications Inc to submit weekly columns which will be carried in the Sunday Stabroek. The series began four weeks ago and will end on November 27. The columns below were received from the People’s Progressive Party/Civic and A Partnership for National Unity.

We have stated our unequivocal commitment towards the improvements of the lives of women, children, the elderly
