Dear Editor,
2019 could be the watershed moment in the history of this country if the main political parties make some drastic changes.
I was part of the crowd looking at the large screen outside the Public Buildings as the debate raged. I observed the passion of the speakers as they reasoned why the vote of no-confidence should be a ‘No’ or ‘Yes’. The government has fallen but there is some good news for the Guyanese nation.
All this talk about ‘cohesion’, ‘multi-racial party’, ‘people’s party’ could bear fruit if the two gargantuan outfits – the PPP and PNC – could make drastic changes in their leadership. The PPP could choose an African as their leader and the PNC, an Indian. I suggest Bishop Juan Edghill as the PPP Presidential candidate and Moses Nagamootoo for the PNC.
Just imagine!
Yours faithfully,
Dr Devanand Bhagwan
