Dear Editor
Now that the Local Government Elections have been completed I believe that many Guyanese are finally wising-up and recognising that the governing APNU+AFC and the opposition PPP/C do not singularly have the solutions to all of Guyana’s problems.
I believe that there are many Guyanese who would like to see the Government and the main Opposition working closer together to chart a course for Guyana’s development.
It is time for them to put aside their political differences and work together for the Guyanese Nation as opposed to the winner-takes-all politics of the past.
How do we get two political parties, who have been fighting each other for 50 odd years, to end their fighting and work together? Do we need to await a new generation of political leaders who are not tainted by the politics of the past?
Perhaps what is needed is a decentralization of power so that more power is vested in Local Authorities (which is what LGE is about).
Yours faithfully,
Sean Ori
