Guyana tops list of countries to be blacklisted … result of APNU/AFC non-support

THE incomprehensible, indefensible position of non-support of the legislation to combat money laundering and countering the financing of terrorism (AML/CFT) – a position that could very well precipitate political suicide of the joint Opposition, has already begun impacting negatively on Guyana’s socio-economic dynamics.

Minister of Legal Affairs, Anil Nandlall, is quite certain that mischief is afoot, given the pre-disposition of the key leadership members of the Opposition to put their power and money hunger above the national good and the welfare of the Guyanese people.

Banks, insurance companies and business houses are already lamenting the escalating price of transactions with international institutions; and the impacts on the ordinary man will graduate incrementally until every facet of their lives will be impacted in negative ways, with less disposable incomes and escalating prices for every commodity, because the manufacturing, business, banking, agricultural, commercial, shipping – every sector will be subjected to heavy and costly scrutiny and interventions by global organisations with which they do business.

Of course, the fallout will fall on the ordinary citizen of Guyana. Their every transaction will have a heightened cost.

The cost of inputs in the agricultural sector will go up, so foodstuff prices will appreciate; overhead costs of manufacturing

goods (especially since they stymied the Amaila Falls) will go up, so the item prices will skyrocket; remittances to Guyanese families by family members living abroad will be considerably reduced because those hiding and working without documentation would not be able to conduct transactions through remittance agencies, because of the intense scrutiny that will be required; most likely, the cost of processing documentation and the length of time will increase at embassies.

Simply put, there will be a perception internationally that every Guyanese, every Guyanese business, every Guyanese institution and organisation, every Guyanese charity – everything or person having any relation or connotation to Guyana and Guyanese will be subjected to sanctions and scrutiny that are reserved for countries that have notable money-laundering economies and terrorist activities. Guyana and things Guyanese will become pariahs to the rest of the world – a distinct dishonour that we suffered under the PNC administration – a place they intend to catapult us back to by making Guyana non-compliant with the requisite imperatives.

Given the history and the general dynamics of the leadership of APNU/AFC, one can only conjecture that this certain political hara kiri by the leadership of the joint Opposition will bring them great rewards, both in political and financial terms, because the only persons who can benefit from their intractable positions that would

take Guyana’s developmental paradigm down a severely and swiftly downward trajectory would be people who do not want those laws passed in the first place – the drug barons, money launderers and the cartels in general.

Their most vociferous MP was Abdul Kadir, who is currently in a US jail for engaging in terrorist acts.

Many of their leaders defend members of cartels, self-confessed murderers, and criminals in general, even subverting the course of justice in many instances.

Is it any wonder they are so complacent and uncaring of the agony of all stakeholders over their intractable position? At a dinner with the private sector, David Granger reneged on an earlier promise to support the Bill.

President Donald Ramotar, who has publicly and during private engagements appealed to the good sense and patriotism of the leadership of the joint Opposition, has laid the blame squarely on the APNU/AFC for their recalcitrant stance and their playing with the lives of the Guyanese people with their grandstanding on the issue in and out of Parliament, despite ardent appeals from stakeholders from every sector, as well as the ordinary man in the street, including their own supporters, who will all be affected by Guyana being blacklisted by CFATF; and even moreso, by FATF when that body meets in Paris, France in mid-February.

SLEUTHS investigating the double-slaying which occurred at the Co-op Backdam 15 miles into the Port Mourant backlands on the Corentyne Coast on Thursday are working on the theory that the incident may have been a retaliatory act.

One of the victims, Krisnauth Jagdeo, was among five persons

who had faced the capital charge in the High Court in relation to the vigilante-style killing of 45-year-old Alfred Munroe, alias Iguana Man, who had been dealt multiple injuries by a group of persons at Rose Hall Town on the Corentyne Coast in May 2013.

Because of technicalities in relation to the jurisdictional hearing, Jagdeo was recently acquitted in relation to Munroe’s death.

Jagdeo , alias Chris, aged 46 years, of Free Yard, Port Mourant; and Seafiel Layne, 48, a labourer of No 1 Road Corentyne, Berbice, were shot in the neck and temple respectively when the boat in which they were travelling came under ambush by a group of men, one of whom was on horseback.

Their workmates -- labourers David Harpaul, 38, of Rose Hall Town, and Clement Griffith, 48, along with Fazel Abrahim, 25, a mechanic of Port Mourant and Black Bush Polder respectively, are currently in critical condition at the Georgetown and New Amsterdam Hospitals respectively.

Sources close to the investigation have revealed that while the incident was a planned event, the victims were caught unawares and had sustained extensive injuries.

Theatre staff at the New Amsterdam Hospital worked tirelessly until the wee hours of Friday morning in an attempt to restore the health and well-being of Harpaul, a father of four.

Relatives and curious onlookers flocked the male surgical ward at the GPHC in an effort to get a glimpse of the men whose lives were rendered ‘on the line’. Some prayed quietly for a fast recovery.

The Port Mourant Follow-Up is a cooperative society managed by three popular businessmen: Kris Jagdeo of Jagdeo Construction; Kase ‘Manoj’ Singh of Spready’s Bakery; and Pharmacist Bhigroog Poonai. The men are involved in extensive rice cultivation in the backlands, which are accessible by boat.

Reports are that the deceased men were in the employment of Kris Jagdeo, while the three injured were employed with Singh.

They had finished working and were on their way home in a wooden motor vessel when they were ambushed by two men and blasted repeatedly with shotguns.

David Harpaul, the boat captain, was reportedly shot in the right side of his abdomen. He, thereafter, telephoned Bhigroog Poonai and informed him of the situation, before motoring for over two miles to board the vehicle which he had parked earlier that day. He continued for a similar distance, before losing consciousness.

In the meantime, the businessmen accompanied the ambulance to the scene, allowing the injured to be transported to the Port Mourant Hospital prior to being transferred to the New Amsterdam Hospital. Harpaul was subsequently transferred to the Georgetown Public Hospital.

Police also rushed to the scene of the shooting and found the two deceased men, who had been hauled from the water.

Investigations are continuing

Government signs € 14.8M sea and river defence agreement with European Union

3

…under 10th EDF.

By Rebecca Ganesh-Ally

THE Government of Guyana yesterday signed a financing agreement with the European Union (EU) that would see Guyana getting € 14.8M under the 10th European Development Fund as budget support for sea and river defence works.

Finance Minister Dr Ashni Singh and Public Works Minister Mr Robeson Benn signed on behalf of the GoG, while EU Ambassador Mr Robert Kopecky signed on behalf of the European Union.

The 10th EDF Financing Agreement builds on previous sea and river defence programmes undertaken by the GoG and the EU. The previous financial commitments made under the 7th, 8th and 9th EDFs have been implemented.

A detailed implementation plan for sea and river defences was developed in 2012 by the Government of Guyana to facilitate progressive adoption and enforcement of the policy by all stakeholders.

Implementation of the plans will focus on a developmental period of three years, with the Works Ministry meeting specified benchmarks. During this time, a number of activities will be pursued with the objective of improving the efficiency and sustainability of the sea and river defence sector.

In order for Guyana to have qualified for financial disbursement

Signing the agreement: From left are Public Works Minister Robeson Benn, Finance Minister Dr. Ashni Singh, and EU Delegation Ambassador Mr Robert Kopecky. under the 10th EDF Financing Agreement, the sea and river defence sector had to have satisfied specific performance criteria in investment and performance targets.

Government continues to invest resources into this sector to protect and maintain the structural integrity of the sea and river defence infrastructure, and has been partnering with the EU to protect and maintain the structural integrity of these systems. Over the past 5 years, GoG has invested in excess of $13.3B into this sector. Also, Government continues to adopt and place high on its agenda alternative measures that will help to mitigate the effects of emergencies, Minister Singh stated. are drawn will be informed if not totally eliminate, the perThe EU’s partnership with GOG in this sector dates back to the accordingly, and examination ception of collusion between 7th EDF Programme signed on February 24 1994, at which time will be done in a timely manner. officers of the GRA and the €12M had been committed.

GRA system now randomly selects imports for examination - selection done by members of the public

THE Guyana Revenue Authority (GRA) is now randomly selecting imports for examination under a new system it has introduced with the objective of improving transparency in its operations.

Under this new system, members of the public are being involved in selecting the consignments of commercial imports that would undergo one hundred percent manual examination. What this means is that, on selected days and under a lottery draw system, members of the public will be called in an ad-hoc manner to assist in picking consignments to be examined manually.

Initially, five consignments will be selected from a ticket cage containing the names of consignees from the previous day’s declarations, which would have been lodged at the Customs and Trade Administration.

The primary objective of this random selection system is in keeping with GRA’s commitment to achieve greater transparency and efficiency in the selection process for consignments to be examined. The system, which will go into operation for the first time on Tuesday, February 4, 2014, was designed to involve the key stakeholder -- the general public.

Commissioner-General of the GRA, Mr Khurshid Sattaur,

noted thus: “the Random Selection for Examination system is designed to protect the (Guyana Revenue) Authority and the integrity of its officers.” He posited that “if the GRA were to bring some level of scrutiny to the examination process, it will increase confidence in that process as well. Additionally, the more systems become transparent, the higher the compliance level by importers.”

The main component of this system is the fact that the selection will be done by the public. Importers whose names

Lebanese army battles gunmen from Syria near border

(Reuters) - UNIDENTIFIED militants involved in Syria’s civil war clashed with the Lebanese army on Friday near the porous border between the countries, security sources said.

It was a further sign of spillover from Syria’s conflict which has destabilized its small Mediterranean neighbor and

whipped up sectarian tensions.

About four km (2.5 miles) inside the Syrian border, rebels killed at least five Syrian soldiers and border guards in an attack on two villages near Talkalakh, the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights monitoring group said.

Soon after, around 15 artillery shells fired from Syria

Suspected militants kill 15 soldiers in Yemen

(Reuters) - FIFTEEN soldiers were killed and four wounded by suspected al Qaeda militants in an attack on an army checkpoint in southeastern Yemen on Friday, an army official said.

The soldiers were ambushed as they were having lunch in a desert area near the city of Shibam, in the eastern province of Hadramout, residents said. The army official said the gunmen were likely to be al Qaeda militants.

Yemen, one of the poorest countries in the Arab world, is struggling to restore state authority after long-serving President Ali Abdullah Saleh was forced to step down in 2011.

Security in Yemen is closely watched by Western and Gulf Arab countries because of its proximity to top oil exporter Saudi Arabia and the presence there of an al Qaeda branch that has plotted bomb attacks against international airlines.

Hadramout, a center of Yemen’s modest oil production, has been hit by sporadic fighting between government forces and a big tribal confederation, after a senior tribesman was killed in a shootout at an army checkpoint in December.

Yemen’s challenges also include rising sectarian tension in the north and a secessionist movement in the south.

landed inside northern Lebanon as Syrian government forces pursued rebels near the frontier.

A man was killed and at least two others were wounded in the clashes.

Hours later, the Lebanese army surrounded a mountainous area near the border and exchanged fire with gunmen holed up there, the sources told Reuters.

The nationality of the gunmen was not clear. Syrian rebels and Lebanese Sunni Muslim militants who support the Sunni-led revolt against Syrian President Bashar al-Assad travel relatively unhindered between Syria and Lebanon.

Lebanon’s frontier with Syria is not straight or always well marked, making it difficult to determine where one country’s territory ends and the other’s begins.

Many Sunnis in north Lebanon say the Lebanese army is taking orders from the Syrian government, which has a history of involvement in Lebanese politics and security institutions.

More than 130,000 people have been killed in Syria’s conflict, which began with popular protests against Assad in March 2011 but evolved into a civil war after a bloody crackdown by security forces.

The violence has spread into Lebanon, where car bombings, rocket attacks, and sectarian gunbattles have become more common, especially since Lebanese Shi’ite Hezbollah militants began openly fighting in Syria on Assad’s side last year.

Vodka blamed for high death rates in Russia (BBC news) THE high number of early deaths in Russia is mainly due to people drinking too much alcohol, particularly vodka, research suggests.

The study, in The Lancet, says 25% of Russian men die before they are 55, and most of the deaths are down to alcohol.

The comparable UK figure is 7%.

Causes of death include liver disease and alcohol poisoning. Many also die in accidents or after getting into fights.

The study is thought to be the largest of its kind in the country.

Researchers from the Russian Cancer Centre in Moscow, Oxford University in the UK and the World Health Organization International Agency for Research on Cancer, in France, tracked the drinking patterns of 151,000 adults in three Russian cities over up to 10 years.

During that time, 8,000 of them died. The researchers also drew on previous studies in which families of 49,000 people who had died were asked about their loved ones’ drinking habits.

Study co-author Prof Sir Richard Peto, from the University of Oxford, said: “Russian death rates have fluctuated wildly over the last 30 years as alcohol restrictions and social stability varied under Presidents Gorbachev, Yeltsin, and Putin, and the main thing driving these wild fluctuations in death was vodka.”

ing in a destructive way. They were getting drunk on spirits and then buying and drinking more, producing a big risk of death.”

The consumption rates for women also fluctuated according to political events, but they drank less so mortality rates were also lower.

Most drinkers were smokers as well which researchers say “aggravated” the death rates.

BINGE DRINKING In 1985, the then Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev drastically cut vodka production and did not allow it to be sold before lunch-time.

Researchers say alcohol consumption fell by around a quarter when the restrictions came in, and so did overall death rates. Then, when communism collapsed, people started drinking more again and the death rates also rose.

Sir Richard said: “When President Yeltsin took over from President Gorbachev, the overall death rates in young men more than doubled. This was as society collapsed and vodka became much more freely available.

“There was a huge increase in drinking and they were drink-

Jamaicans dominate CARICOM skills certification

9 in hospital

(Newsday) NINE persons have been hospitalised for respiratory illness as smoke spewing from the Beetham landfill continues to sicken members of the public, and disrupt life in the capital city of Port-of- Spain (PoS) for a fourth day.

Banks, schools and public offices closed shortly after opening yesterday as persons complained about the smell and effects of the smoke emanating from the Beetham landfill, where a fire still rages.

Many persons complained about nausea, sneezing, tightness of the chest, breathing and other respiratory problems although the landfill was closed on Wednesday.

Chairman of the North-West Regional Health Authority (NWRHA) Dr Edison Haqq said nine persons were hospitalised at several medical institutions with respiratory illnesses due to the smoke.

He told Newsday there has been a definite increase in the number of cases of asthma and asthma-related complaints in PoS. “We usually see a seasonal increase of cases during the dry season and we see approximately 12 persons per day. However, we have seen an average of 16 or 17 cases over the past few days,” said Haqq.

He said the numbers seemed to be approaching this new average yesterday, but noted that sometimes there is a delayed effect to the inhalation of smoke, and so some may not feel the effects until the night. In order to serve these persons, both the Barataria and Woodbrook Health Centres remained opened until 9 pm as they were equipped with nebulisers and asthma treatments. A woman stated that, as soon as she entered City Gate yesterday, she began to cough because of the smoke. She said while her employer did not close the business, many employees returned to their homes for the sake of their health.

Another woman, wearing a dust mask while walking along the Brian Lara Promenade, said the smoke had affected her earlier, between the hours of 7 am and 9 am. In addition to the smell, she said she had sinus problems and breathing in the smoke left an unpleasant taste in her mouth.

Frank Uknowho, a sanitary worker on the promenade concurred.

“You felt it all in your chest and when you swallow your own saliva, you taste it in your mouth. I was in a constant state of nausea early this morning,” he said.

Uknowho admitted the smoke “came and went” with the breeze and so he experienced some relief during his work day.

He too wore a dust mask provided to him by his employer.

(Jamaica Observer) -- DESPITE constant complaints from several circles in Jamaica about mistreatment and denial of entry at the ports of several Caribbean Community (CARICOM) countries, including Barbados and Trinidad and Tobago, reports from the Ministry of Labour and Social Security are that the majority of those who apply for skills certificates are Jamaicans.

In 2013, 442 skills certificates were issued to CARICOM nationals with Jamaicans accounting for 411 of that number.

The skills certification validates an individual’s proficiency allowing CARICOM nationals to seek employment in any member state.

This free movement of skills, according to the CARICOM website, entails the “right to seek employment in any member state and the elimination of the need for work permits and permits of stay”.

The Caribbean Community (Free Movement of Skilled Persons) Act establishes the legislative arrangements for free movement as required under the Revised Treaty of Chaguaramas establishing the Caribbean Single Market and Economy (CSME).

The CSME is intended to benefit the people of the region by providing more and better opportunities to produce and sell goods and services and to attract investment. The aim is to create one large market among the participating member states.

In July 1995 the Conference of Heads of Government agreed that, with effect from January 1996, CARICOM nationals, who are university graduates, should be allowed to move freely in the region for work purposes, the website said.

The universities recognised under the Act are the University of the West Indies; the University of Technology; Northern Caribbean University; Mico University College; the University of Guyana; and the University of Suriname.

Then in July 1996, the Conference expanded the cate-

Some of the 13 Jamaicans who were refused entry, detained and sent back home from Trinidad in direct breach of the Revised Treaty of Chaguaramas in November 2013. gories of people allowed free movement for work purposes to include artistes, sports persons,

musicians, and media workers.

The CARICOM website said that currently, free movement of these categories is in

place in all member states, except Antigua and Barbuda, Barbados, Montserrat, and St Kitts and Nevis.

Panama to release 32 crew members of seized North Korean ship (BBC News) PANAMA has ordered the release of 32 crew members of a North Korean ship seized six months ago in the Panama Canal, carrying Cuban weapons.

The captain and two other crew members will remain in detention as they are facing weapons trafficking charges.

Cuba said that the Soviet-era jet planes and weapons were being taken to North Korea to be repaired.

But the United Nations says there this was a breach of international sanctions against North Korea.

The Panamanian authori-

ties said that taking the cargo through the canal endangered the country’s internal security.

Earlier this month, the ship’s owners agreed to pay $670,000 (£400,000) to have the vessel released.

Documents have been found showing that “the ship’s captain, the first officer and the political officer had been given instructions about what to do if the illegal shipment was detected,” prosecutor Nahaniel Murgas said.

The 32 crew members also gave statements denying knowledge of the illegal cargo.

As a result they are being released without charge, but

the captain and the other crew members face 12-year sentences for arms smuggling.

The container ship - the Chong Chon Gang - was stopped near Manzanillo, on the Atlantic side of the canal, on 15 July under suspicion that it was carrying drugs.

It had disappeared from satellite tracking for a few days as it approached the Cuban capital, Havana, having departed from Russia’s eastern coast three months earlier.

Officials found 25 containers of military hardware, including two Soviet-era MiG21 fighter aircraft, air defence systems, missiles and command and control vehicles.

EDITORIAL

GUYANA

The inconsistencies of opposition rhetoric and actions REGIONAL Chairman of Region 10(Upper Demerara/Upper Berbice), Sharma Solomon, (both names are misleading and incongruous), and the joint Opposition keep lamenting in their perennial efforts to mislead the Guyanese people, that facts are fiction and vice versa, that Linden is being neglected by the PPP/C Government, despite the billions of subsidies in taxpayers’ dollars that have been spent by the same PPP/C Government to keep the bauxite industry viable and bolster the fortunes and welfare of Region 10.

History keeps repeating itself and if one were to research its track record, the following would be shown to have been replicated year after year in the PNC’s administration in Region 10 – indeed, in all the communities where they have numerical and administrative leverage; that is, withhold spending on community development to make the Government look bad and give the opposition leverage for criticisms and calls for boycotts and protests – and the general mayhem and carnage; all the destruction, divisiveness and general negativity, which is the only leadership they can provide to their supporters.

A recent headline: “$10M for development projects returned to gov’t by Region 10 officials” says it all in one compact statement.

The article goes on to state, inter alia: “THE People’s Progressive Party/Civic (PPP/C) Region 10 representative, Neil Kumar, told the Guyana Chronicle that some $10M was returned to the treasury by officials in the region. According to him, the monies were earmarked for development projects in the region. Kumar added that other monies are being wasted and there needs to be better financial management by the regional authority.

“Kumar highlighted the fact that the boat that traverses the Berbice River to access some communities has been in a state of disrepair for two years.

“Rather than buy a new engine, monies are being wasted to travel all the way to Parika for repairs!” he said.

The parliamentarian noted that the threat of a shutdown, like other positions taken by the regional authority, has only negative consequences for the region.

He explained that while some people turned out for the protest action, the majority of the businesses that were actually closed were those of Chinese proprietors.

Kumar said, “They (the Chinese) were afraid, so they closed….these threats bring nothing good to the people here.”

Kumar has urged a change of perspectives by the regional authorities, but that is an eventuality that seems hardly likely, given

the political opportunism and grandstanding that the joint opposition has been displaying over the years instead of providing productive and responsible leadership.

As a direct contrast, despite the fact that all the indications point to the fact that Lindeners would never generally support the PPP/C administration, with many citizens having supported the opposition in destructive, anti-developmental behaviour, true to the PPP/C promises in its successive manifestos, the Government keeps planning policies, improvising programmes, and implementing projects to constantly improve the lives and enhance the lifestyles of members of Linden; as well as elevate the fortunes of Region 10, as they have been doing for the entire country.

As part of Government’s continuum of booster initiatives, the new Board of Directors for the Linden Enterprise Network (LEN), a private limited liability company, wholly owned by the Government and operating solely in Region 10 to support the creation of viable and competitive enterprises, was officially inaugurated by Minister of Finance, Dr. Ashni Singh last Wednesday. The minister said that the installation of the seven-man board represents a significant step in government’s focus of making Linden a more prosperous town.

He explained that the goal is to ensure a Linden that has a stronger, diversified economy (less dependent on bauxite) and to do so, not by just facilitating external investors, but by promoting and encouraging within the town, business enterprises by Lindeners themselves.

While explaining that Government’s strategy for Linden involves making the traditional industry,bauxite, as competitive as possible, he indicated that while Government will not give up on bauxite, as it will continue to be an important natural resource that will continue to be harnessed for national development as long as it is possible. Government will simultaneously continue to promote other income-generating and wealth-creating initiatives for the region.

He explained this was why the Linden Economic Advancement Programme (LEAP) was conceptualised and introduced in 2002, and its successor LEN subsequently established, so that the long-term prosperity of Linden not only comes from external investors, but also from economic diversification arising from efforts by Lindeners themselves.

Those two programmes were conceptualised and implemented to advance the region’s infrastructure and reduce unemployment. More importantly, under LEAP, the Linden Economic Advancement Fund (LEAF), a credit facility, was designed to provide small loans for business development in Region 10. According to Minister Singh, under LEAF, 701 loans were granted, totalling in excess of $732M as a means of encouraging and promoting growth in small businesses in

agriculture, forestry, hospitality, manufacturing, mining, services and retail trading. Over 3095 jobs were created as a result.

“We remain convinced that micro-enterprise small business development is one of the most efficient ways of increasing lives and livelihoods…this what LEN is all about, not just the lending…but also lending[for the] purpose of small business development,” Minister Singh said.

“It is our government’s hopes that the appointment of a new LEN board will bring with it a re-invigorated micro-enterprise environment in Linden, and a re-invigorated micro-enterprise small business development,” he said.

The intention is that they seek out new business ideas and new borrowers, facilitating their businesses by providing not only finances, but mentorship.

The minister said that whilst he has no doubt that the new board will discharge this important mandate, he pointed out that ultimately the success of LEN will depend on the borrowers and the community. He noted that regrettably, over $300M of the monies that were lent under LEAP has not been repaid, and urged that those in default bring themselves in order, and repay the loans so that they can benefit from a repeat loan under LEN, and so that the rest of Linden are also not denied aopportunities to borrow.

As the minister indicated, Lindeners themselves will be responsible for the success or failure of Government’s initiatives to improve their lives, individually, and their region, generally; and shutting down businesses, burning and looting, destroying their infrastructure, etcetera, would only drive away investors and de-motivate really caring officials.

We are a developing country – emerging from a history of a plethora of destructive elemental forces that devastated our nation, even to the point where even the more optimistic thought that we would never emerge from the quagmire in which we had been immersed for decades – to the eventuality where even the more altruistic funding agencies had practically written us off as almost beyond redemption, but today we are “…the only shining stars of the Caribbean;” and Lindeners need to decide whether they are going to join the dynamic bus leading to a peaceful, progressive and prosperous nation; or remain on a derelict vehicle that continues to take them on a journey leading to their own retrogression and destruction.

The vitality of the OAS as a Regional Organisation THE Permanent Council of the Organization of American States (OAS) today received the report of the Secretary General, José Miguel Insulza, on his latest activities, in which he highlighted the vitality of the hemispheric institution in the region, and approved the status of Montenegro and Liechtenstein as Observer Countries at a regular meeting held at its headquarters in Washington, DC. The Secretary General reported on his recent activities outside the OAS during the last three months, when he visited Mexico, Bolivia, Colombia, Costa Rica, Honduras and Cuba to attend different events, such as the Forum of Democracy and the seminar “A Response to Violence against Women: the Convention of Belém do Pará”

in Mexico City; the Meeting of Ministers of Public Security of the Americas (MISPA) in Medellin; the meeting of the Inter-American Drug Abuse Control Commission (CICAD) in Bogotá, Colombia; the transfer of leadership of AMERIPOL, in San José, Costa Rica; and the inauguration of the new President of Honduras, Juan Orlando Hernandez.

The OAS leader stated that on his trip to Honduras he met with President Hernández, his predecessor, Porfirio Lobo, and during his visit to Costa Rica, he met with President Laura Chinchilla. On his trip to Cuba, the first by an OAS Secretary General to the Caribbean country in more than 50 years, to participate in the Summit of the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States (CEL-

AC), he said the visit was in response to a invitation by the Cuban government, who serves as Pro Tempore Chair of the organization, and recalled that he had already attended last year’s CELAC meeting held in Santiago, Chile.

Separately, the Permanent Council granted Montenegro and the Principality of Liechtenstein the status of Permanent Observers to the OAS. With today’s two additions, the OAS now has 70 Permanent Observers.

On another point on the agenda, the Council received the new Permanent Representative of Ecuador to the OAS, Marco Vinicio Albuja. Ambassador Albuja, who has held various political positions in the government of his country, recalled that he once received a scholar-

ship from the OAS and declared his intention to “work for the interests of our countries and in particular for the interests of all the peoples of our America.”

The Permanent Representative of the Dominican Republic and Chair of the Council, Pedro Vergés, welcomed him on behalf of the Council.

Jose Miguel Insulza

Also in today’s meeting, the representatives of the member countries bid farewell to the Alternate Representative of Argentina, Martin Gómez Bustillo. Secretary General Insulza highlighted that Gómez Bustillo headed the mission of his country to the OAS since 2010, and emphasized the contributions of the Argentine diplomat to the resolutions of the OAS on the claim of sovereignty of Argentina over the Malvinas Islands.

Insulza further highlighted the role played by Gómez Bustillo in the situations regarding Honduras (2009), Paraguay (2012) and the debate over the strengthening of the Inter-American Human Rights System.

Amaila Falls Access Road to be completed by March 31 deadline

By Leroy Smith

THE Ministry of Public Works has announced, through its technical advisor Mr Walter Willis, that the new deadline for completion of the Amaila Fall Access Road is May 31, 2014.

Willis had announced that the road was 80% completed as at December 31, 2013, compared to being only 30% completed as at December 31, 2012.

There are seven sections of the road at which works are being executed simultaneously by several contractors, Public Works Minister Robeson Benn stated yesterday, when he called a press conference at which he and several sectoral heads updated the media on the progress of work for the year 2013.

Willis outlined the percentage of works completed on each section of the road. Section 2A is said to be 89 percent completed, while section 2B is 32 percent completed. Section 3 is 73 percent completed, while section 4 has thus far recorded a 99 percent completion; and this is followed by section 5 with 98 percent completion, and section 6 with 55 percent completion.

And finally, the longest stretch of the road, section 7, is 74 percent completed.

Contractors working on the road include China Railway, Mekdeci Machinery and Construction, Toolsie Persaud Quarries Inc, Ivor Allenye and Dwarka Nauth.

Willis told the media that laterite remains to be placed on all sections of the road, which

stretches a total of 120 kilometres, but this depends on weather conditions.

He also pointed out that there is a 2.5 kilometre section of the road which is regarded as the swamp section, since it is very low and close to the river.

Nevertheless, that section is being worked upon to ensure the completion date is met.

In addition to the road, there are several crossings and bridges, including two greenheart bridges and a steel one, which have to be completed by the end of March in order that the

entire road to the Amaila Falls can be considered 100 percent completed.

The steel bridge is part of a separate contract, and the design was only recently submitted and agreed upon. The next stage entails securing a contractor by way of tender.

It is also being considered whether a pontoon should be used for crossing rather than the bridge.

The entire Amaila Falls Access Road is being financed from the national treasury, the Public Works Minister disclosed.

Severe wet weather threatens coastal regions until February 5 -citizens warned to take precautionary measures

By Michel Outridge THE Hydromet Department of the Ministry of Agriculture is currently monitoring a weather pattern over the Atlantic. The Ministry’s Advisory states: Should it persist, this pattern could result in overnight rainfall of up to 50mm being recorded in Regions 2, 3, 4 and the northern portion of Region 6.

The country’s drainage system is certainly not designed to accommodate such a high amount of water, and should that weather pattern continue, some communities could inevitably experience flooding.

This situation is presently being monitored by all relevant stakeholders, and an emergency D&I team is on standby to ensure that the situation remains under control.

Measures taken thus far by the National Drainage and Irrigation Authority (NDIA) include: 1. Monitoring of ALL emergency drainage structures to ensure they are functional.

2. Ensuring koker operators open and close sluice doors on time 3. Ensuring that all equipment is functional in the event of having to be pressed into

emergency works 4. Cleaning of canals and drainage structures through collaboration with regional bodies IMPORTANT: - There is a 70% chance that the rainfall predicted above would occur, as against a 30% chance that it would decrease (below 50mm)

HIGH TIDES: The spring tide will be in effect until February 05, 2014.

Residents of riverine, coastal and low-lying areas are advised to exercise precautionary measures against possible flooding

due to above normal high tides.

Forecast, Friday, January 31, (evening) to Thursday, February 06, 2014 (day) Tonight and tomorrow, cloudy to overcast conditions with occasional showers and intermittent rain expected over Regions 2 to 5, north of Region 6 and over Region 7. Elsewhere would experience cloudy conditions with scattered showers expected.

Rainfall is expected to range between 5.0 and 45.0 mm in Regions 2 to 5, north of Region 6 and over Region 7.

Elsewhere 0.1 to 15.0 mm.

Occasional moderate to heavy wind gusts are expected over

Regions 2 to 5, north of Region 6 and over Region 7.

Highest rainfall amounts are expected over Region 2 to 4 & 7.

On Sunday, cloudy conditions with scattered showers are expected over coastal regions. Elsewhere, there will be partly cloudy conditions with isolated showers.

For Monday and the remainder of the forecast period, mainly fair conditions interrupted by brief showers are expected across Guyana.

Rainfall is expected to range between 0.1 and 10.0 mm within a 24hr period.

If Opposition does not have power to cut Budget 2012, they cannot cut Budget 2014 - AG

- Court is final arbiter

THE final ruling of Chief Justice (ag) Ian Chang in the now infamous budget cut case has laid a number of legal issues to rest, many of which were novel, given the parliamentary configuration in which the Opposition holds a one-seat majority.

Speaking on the television programme Political Scope, recently, Attorney General and Minister of Legal Affairs Anil Nandlall said that the ruling has vindicated the position that the Government has firmly held over the past two years, which is that the parliamentary Opposition cannot, by a mere majority vote, alter the country’s national estimates of expenditure as presented by the Finance Minister.

NO POWER TO CUT

In 2012, the Opposition rocked the nation when it inflicted several cuts to the budget totalling $20.8B. At that time, the AG, as well as several other government MPs presented to the Parliament cogent arguments, all pointing to the unconstitutionality of this action. These initial arguments have finally been validated by Justice Chang’s ruling which states that the powers of the National Assembly are limited to giving or withholding approval for the annual estimates of expenditure presented by the Executive through its Finance Minister.

The National Assembly, more specifically the Opposition, therefore, has no power to reduce the said estimates.

Minister Nandlall explained that apart from having no power to inflict a reduction, the Opposition cannot substitute their own estimates, and use their majority of one to pass that substitution since the Constitution clearly states that the responsibility for the presentation of national estimates is that of the Finance Minister.

SEPARATION OF POWERS

The doctrine of the separation of powers reposes in the Executive the power to prepare and present to the legislature, estimates of expenditure for the country on an annual basis.

“A part of the legislature cannot arrogate unto itself a power which the constitution resided with the Executive and using mere majority votes in the National Assembly to hijack that power from the Executive and seek to exercise it,” Minister Nandlall explained.

He recalled that having failed in persuading the Speaker and the Opposition to withdraw the motion to cut on the basis of its unconstitutionality, the government was left with no choice but to seek recourse in the courts, which is the appropriate resort when any organ of State violates the supreme law of the land.

PRELIMINARY RULING

Minister Nandlall recalled that when the preliminary ruling on this matter was made, the Opposition refused to be bounded by it.

“They incredulously and irrationally felt that they can disregard that ruling, that somehow that ruling has no force and they were calling upon us to have a final ruling.”

He explained that there are no ambiguities in the law as they relate to court rulings, whether preliminary or final. “Every person who has a fleeting knowledge of and/or is acquainted with the law knows that a ruling from a court, unless and until it is set aside, whether it is interim or final, it must be obeyed,” the AG said.

STANDING ORDERS

One of the arguments advanced by the Opposition was that the power to cut the national estimates was conferred on them by the Parliament’s standing orders. This issue was thoroughly dealt with by the Chief Justice in his ruling.

The AG relayed that standing orders are merely rules of procedures for the internal operations of the National Assembly; they are not laws and are not published in the Official Gazette. Moreover, these standing orders do not require the assent of the President and therefore they do not have the force of law. “The standing order cannot confer a power; it just regulates a procedure… legal powers

ATTORNEY GENERAL ANIL NANDLALL are conferred by law or the Constitution, and it is the Constitution that confers powers on the Minister of Finance and on the Opposition in the National Assembly, a power to approve or withhold approval,” he explained.

He reminded that the Constitution, as the supreme law of the land, prevails over any law that conflicts with it, and similarly, if standing orders, which do not have the force of law, collide with the Constitution, then they too will be deemed unconstitutional and unlawful.

STRUCK OUT

With regard to the Chief Justice’s ruling to exclude Opposition Leader, David Granger and Finance Minister, Dr. Ashni Singh from the proceedings, the AG explained that this ruling accorded with Article 172 of the Constitution, which stated that no civil or criminal proceedings may be instituted against any member of the National Assembly for spoken or written words to the National Assembly or anything brought by way of petition or Bill.

“It is correct that we have never had this type of parliamentary configuration before, and therefore litigation of this type has never arisen before. Everyone is learning or trying to deal with these legal issues that are arising; this judgment has, in a great way, addressed many of the grey areas out there, and has given guidance for the future conduct of the National Assembly,” the AG said.

When this ruling was made, the Opposition Leader indicated his intention to appeal the case. At that point, the Chief Justice, of his own volition, placed the budget cut case on hold for almost five months to facilitate the appeal. At the end of that process in the Full Court, the Opposition Leader lost that case; it was then that the Chief Justice proceeded to render his final ruling.

“A court can only be forced to stop hearing a matter or from not proceeding to hear or conclude a matter if another court orders that court to do so. We have no court order here to that effect from any court which prohibits the Chief Justice from moving forward. He voluntarily waited for almost five months. They went to the full court, filed whatever they had

to file and they lost again,” the AG said.

FUTURE BUDGETS Though the ruling of the Chief Justice deals with the 2012 budget, Minister Nandlall explained that the principles he adumbrated here are principles of law that ought to guide future budgets.

“If you do not have a power to cut the 2012 budget, you cannot have the power to cut the 2014 budget, unless we change the Constitution to give some additional power which you now do not have. I am hoping that we will not be visited with the ordeal of the Opposition disregarding the clear, final ruling of the Chief Justice of the country to once again attempt to cut the national estimates, because again they will demonstrate to this nation that they are prone and they have this proclivity to violate the law of the land and to use their votes in the National Assembly to bulldoze parliamentary processes and procedures,” he stated.

Since this ruling has been announced, AFC leader Khemraj Ramjattan has told the media that they will be filing an appeal. However, the filing of an appeal, would not in anyway put this ruling on hold.

The AG explained that a ruling from a judge can only be put on hold by order of another court, either of its equal or of a more superior jurisdiction. He pointed out too, that the Chief Justice, in his ruling, did not order anything to be done; he simply declared what the law is in relation to this matter.

“You do not get a stay of a declaratory order. The Chief Justice has simply declared in accordance with the Constitution that the Opposition has no power to cut the national estimates …the High Court of the Supreme Court of Judicature is the only institution in the country that has the power to interpret and declare on the Constitution of Guyana and what it says and what it doesn’t say. If you disagree with that ruling of that High Court, then you go to the Court of Appeal and then the Caribbean Court of Justice,” the AG informed.

FINAL ARBITER

Importantly, Parliament does not have the power to declare provisions of the constitutions and since the court is the final arbiter on matters of law in Guyana’s legal system, then its declaration is final and binding on every agency of State, including the President and the Parliament.

Should the Opposition proceed to cut the 2014 National Budget, as they have already indicated, then according to the AG, the Speaker would be put in an invidious position, since a large part of the Chief Justice’s judgment clearly outlines the direction in which the Speaker ought to be guided.

The ruling declares what the final position is in relation to motions that can be filed in the National Assembly.

“The Speaker, on repeated occasions, has said openly and publicly that he has some power of review over what transpires, so in his power of review, he has to ensure that the Constitution is not violated,” the Legal Affairs Minister highlighted.

The National Assembly is a creature of the Constitution and is bound by it. The court, in its ruling as the final arbiter, gave its interpretation of the constitution. If this interpretation is deemed to be inaccurate, then the legal system provides a method by which that inaccuracy can be rectified.

“It is not open to any agency or person or authority to flout what is the final pronouncement coming from the court of law on matters of law and the Constitution. All are bound, including the Speaker, the Executive, and even the Judiciary itself by what the judiciary declares to be the Constitution and the intention of the framers of the Constitution, and by what it interprets to be the law of the land,” the AG concluded.

OLD KAI: CHRONICLES OF GUYANA

THE FINGERS ARE POINTING … back at them

THE irony of it all is that the opposition is both guilty of disregarding, and is encouraging its supporters to disregard our laws, and at the same time is crying about the crime situation.

These are the very people who are representing criminals free of charge.

Old Kai was heartened when he read a statement from the Alliance For Change expressing concern about crime in Guyana. But then reality dawned upon me, as these are the very people who are representing the criminals free of charge in their effort to get them to escape punishment for their crimes. Same thing can be said for the people in APNU, who are usually the first to turn up at a police station or the courts the moment a suspect has been arrested and charged.

It does not matter if the individual was caught red-handed or if investigations led the police to the suspect; they always manage to find an excuse why the accused should not be charged, and they are prepared to use their political clout to achieve their agendas.

Why this proclivity? Is there a link, a nexus? The answer is obvious to the average citizen: The current opposition in Guyana has a history of supporting and engaging in criminal activities.

The youths of today may not be aware of the infamous X13 terrorist plan hatched by the PNC to destroy our country. It was uncovered at their Congress Place Headquarters. The current Mayor of Georgetown and one-time Ambassador of Peace, Hamilton Green, was a key component of that plan, and has detailed and operative knowledge of it. In hindsight, he has effectively

managed to destroy our capital city with incompetents at City Hall since 1993.

The nation will also not forget the PNC draping the national flag of Guyana on the casket of notorious criminal Linden ‘Blackie’ London at the Square of the Revolution just over a decade ago.

We will never forget their post-election riots, when Georgetown was literally on fire and scores were targeted and beaten, robbed, and sexually assaulted.

Then there is their established link with the criminals during the crime wave of early 2000. The PNC -- now APNU -- leaders along with Nigel Hughes of the AFC proudly defended these criminals in court.

Just recently, we witnessed a national travesty when an accused in the Lusignan massacre was set free after the jury returned a not-guilty verdict despite the damning evidence by an accomplice.

No other than the AFC’s Nigel Hughes represented the accused, and we are told that he did so for free, or no charge. It was only after the massacre accused was freed that the nation found out about an established relationship between Nigel Hughes and a key member of the jury.

This very individual, who is also the Chairman of the AFC, publicly called for ‘no peace’ in our country as his party organised the violent disruptions along the East Bank public road at Agricola, wherein scores were targeted, beaten and robbed, and girls were sexually assaulted.

Guyanese vividly remember the images of the youths taking the order from the AFC for ‘no peace’ and attacking police ranks,

even to the point where some of those ranks suffered injuries.

Both the AFC and APNU were the organisers of the violent protests in Linden, where scores were also beaten and robbed, and businesses burnt and infrastructure destroyed. The Independent Linden Commission of Inquiry was later critical of the opposition leaders for organising the illegal demonstrations and encouraging acts of criminality.

With all this in mind (taking into consideration that this is just a synopsis), does the opposition (AFC/APNU) think that their actions would encourage our youths to be law-abiding citizens?

Old Kai remains convinced that the entire existence of our current opposition has been about breeding disregard for authority and the rule of law. The evidence is there to prove this! The most recent example is the High Court ruling that the AFC/APNU budget cuts were illegal, as the cuts were in contravention of our constitution. What did our ‘law abiding’ Opposition do? They proudly announced that they would disregard the ruling of the High Court because they are apparently above the law.

What message is this sending to our youths, particularly those from families who are opposition supporters? They are being fed an Opposition diet that it is ok to break the laws of our country, and if they are ever charged, their leaders will represent them free of cost and ensure they escape justice!

So if the Opposition is going to point a finger at Government and blame it for the crime situation, they need to start paying attention to all their other fingers pointing back at them.

Defence & prosecution address Simple larceny accused must jury in Niranjan murder trial … accused Desmond to know fate on Monday

By George Barclay JUSTICE Franklyn Holder, presiding in the Niranjan murder trial, will sum up the evidence to the jury on Monday morning, February 3, following which he would hand the case over to them for consideration and verdict.

Parsram Lalchand, called “Desmond”, who is facing a retrial, is said by the prosecution to be one of six men who had chased and beaten Niranjan unconscious on July 29, 2008 following a row over a reportedly stolen bicycle. Niranjan later died from injuries he had received, resulting in Desmond and others being charged with his murder.

The prosecution, led by state counsel Miss Dhanika Singh in association with Miss Mercedes Thompson, is alleging that the accused was one of the men who had been seen beating Niranjan; but the accused, Parsram Lalchand, who is being represented by Attorney-at-law Mr. Huckumchand, has pleaded not guilty to the offence, and his lawyer has called as a defence witness a prisoner named Babzie Singh, called ‘Solex’, who has sworn that he and his three sons were the ones who had beaten Niranjan.

Singh added that “Desmond” was present when an argument erupted over a bicycle which was found at “Desmond’s” home, but he said that when the fight had started, “Desmond” was not there, he was at home with his wife.

However, the prosecutor has declared the defence story inconsistent, and has urged the jury to return a verdict consistent with the accepted evidence.

Mr. Huckumchand has likened this case to the Royal Readers’ story about Llewellyn and his dog, his child and the wolf.

He told the jury that the child was placed in a cradle and the dog was left to watch the child. When Llewellyn returned, he was

confronted with an upturned cradle, and did not see the child, but saw the dog with blood on its mouth. Without further examination, he drew his sword and killed the dog, only to find out later that the child was safe and well beneath the upturned cradle and not far away was the dead wolf which had been killed by the dog.

On the other hand, the final words of the prosecutrix to the jury were to the effect that they should return a verdict that was unbiased and without sympathy for Llewellyn, his dog, his child, or the wolf, the relatives of the accused or those of the deceased; but a verdict that is in keeping with the evidence given in the court before them.

The trial ends on Monday.

post $250,000 bail each

TW0 men charged with simple larceny were each placed on $250,000 bail, when they appeared before Chief Magistrate Priya Sewnarine-Beharry yesterday.

Juan Samuels, 33, a mechanic of Lot 557 Moraballi Street, Mackenzie, Linden and

Larceny defendant with alibi put on $80,000 bail NINETEEN-YEAR-OLD Ganesh Seecharran (no address given), who is charged with simple larceny, was ordered to lodge $80,000 bail, by Chief Magistrate Priya Sewnarine-Beharry yesterday.

He pleaded not guilty to the charge, which alleged that, between January 16 and 17, at Cummings Street, Bourda, Georgetown, he stole one pair of rear view mirrors and one antenna, among other things, together valued $81,000, property of Mark Adonis.

Police Inspector Michael Grant, prosecuting, said the virtual complainant is the owner of a Toyota car which he, usually, parks outside his yard because of limited space.

The Prosecutor said on January 16, about 23:00 hrs, Adonis parked the vehicle on his bridge, leaving everything intact and went to bed around 03:45 hrs the following morning.

He was awakened, by his father’s voice, in the house, shouting to someone at a window and, upon checking, he did not see anyone but discovered the articles mentioned in the charge missing.

Seecharran was represented by attorney-at-law Mr. Melville Duke, who made a bail application for him, stating that the defendant has a strong alibi, stating, that day he was at Wales Police Station, West Bank Demerara and that can be proved at the trial.

The case was put off to February 26.

Michael Edmondson, 27, a miner (no address given), were not required to plead to the indictable charge that said, on Tuesday, January 28, 2014, at Noitgedacht in the Essequibo Magisterial District, they stole one hydraulic pump among other things, together valued $8.45 M, property of Axel Marcel.

Police Inspector Michael Grant, prosecuting, said the virtual complainant left his excavator, which had broken down in the interior, to be repaired and, when the mechanic went to repair it, he saw the two accused next to the machine and the items mentioned in the charge at the back of a 4X4 vehicle.

But, after they spotted the mechanic, they drove away and the repairer discovered the parts missing and made a report to the police.

The prosecutor, while not objecting to the grant, asked that bail should be a substantial amount, with conditions attached.

The accused were represented by attorney-at-law Mr. Michael Somersall and their case was transferred to Mahdia Court for April 14.

Remanded U.S. deportee recruited cocaine courier

UNITED States deportee Robin Wills, of Lot 625 Republic Park, East Bank Demerara, was, yesterday, refused bail

by Chief Magistrate Priya Sewnarine-Beharry, on a drug trafficking charge.

He pleaded not guilty to the offence, which alleged that, on November 17, 2013,

at Cheddi Jagan International Airport (CJIA), he had 2.232 kilogrammes of cocaine for the purpose.

Customs Anti-Narcotics Unit (CANU) Prosecutor Oswald Massiah said, on November 9, a female arrived in Guyana for the funeral of her stepfather and made contact

with the defendant whom she knew previously.

Wills offered the woman assistance to renew her passport and joined the company of herself and a sister, who resides in Berbice.

He also entertained both of them to recreational activities in the city and provided them ac-

December armed robberies defendant refused bail LORENZO Forde, 18, of Lot 4 Drysdale Street, Charlestown, Georgetown, was remanded to prison, by Magistrate Judy Latchman yesterday, on two charges of robbery.

He pleaded not guilty to the offences, details of one which said, on December 26, 2013, at High Street, Kingston, also in the city, being in company of another armed with a piece of broken bottle, he robbed Marvin Benjamin of one Toyota Fielder Wagon valued $2M, along with a $10,000 cellular phone and $8,000 cash.

Particulars of the other offence said, on December 30, 2013, he robbed Elijah Adams of one Toyota 212 Carina worth $1.5 M and, at the time of, during or before, he made use of personal violence on the victim.

Police Sergeant Vishnu Hunt, prosecuting, objected to bail, on the grounds of the seriousness of the crimes and said the defendant was identified on a parade a month ago.

Forde was represented by attorney-at-law Mr. Paul Fung-a-Fat, who made an unsuccessful application for Forde’s pre-trial freedom and the latter will have to remain incarcerated until February 17.

commodation at a guest house, during which time, he requested help from the overseas sibling to take two bottles of cream liqueur to the U.S. The Prosecutor said Wills undertook to provide transportation for their travel to the airport and hired a car to collect the sister from Berbice and the liquor at his Republic Park address.

He took the two bottles that contained the illegal substance, opened the woman’s suitcase and placed them amongst her clothes and they left for the airport.

At the airport, he stayed with the driver while the two sisters took the suitcase to the check-in area and, during the procedure at the CJIA, the suspected cocaine was found in the suitcase among the woman’s clothing and she was arrested and taken to CANU Headquarters where further investigations were carried out.

Massiah said efforts were made to contact the defendant but to no avail. However, after a wanted bulletin was issued for Wills, he turned himself in and was positively identified with the aid of the sister residing in Guyana.

The Prosecutor objected to bail for Wills, citing, the quantum of the illegal substance involved and the fact that the defendant is capable of tampering with the witness.

The objection was upheld and the case was transferred to Providence Court for February 5.

In limbo

(Nation News) PUBLIC OFFICERS are in limbo as they await answers regarding lay-offs.

But no answers have been given by members of the island’s highest decision-making body, Cabinet, while the main public sector union was still without the list of those scheduled to be retrenched from yesterday.

Minister of Finance Chris Sinckler also could shed no light on the list, stating that the list would not fall under his purview but would go to the minister responsible for the Civil Service, Prime Minister Freundel Stuart.

However, calls Thursday went to the voice-mail of the Prime Minister, who said two weeks ago that the deadline for the start of the 3 000 lay-offs, postponed from January 15, would be the end of the month. Stuart also said that deadline was non-negotiable.

Confirming that a list of those likely to be sent home was already in existence, Sinckler would neither confirm nor deny whether the lay-offs would have started yesterday.

Stabroek Outpost sodomy allegation...

11

Youth complainant fails to finger accused policemen CRIME Chief Seelall Persaud disclosed, yesterday, that an identification parade was held on Thursday, involving ranks from the Stabroek Market Outpost, but the youth who alleged that he was sodomised by three policemen on Sunday last failed to finger the trio.

The Deputy Commissioner of Police (Law Enforcement) said the allegation is still being probed.

The report, received on January 28, said, about 21:00hrs on January 26, the police trio took a 16-year-old into the Mobile Outpost at Stabroek Market area and sodomised him.

As a result, the three accused have been placed under close arrest as the investigations continue.

The Police Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR) said the investigation is being done through the Brickdam Police Station.

The complainant claimed the incident occurred about 21:00 hrs and that his three attackers took turns sodomising him.

It was reported that the teen had done a stint at the New Opportunity Corps (NOC), Onderneeming, Essequibo Coast and was

frequenting the usual hangout spots of commercial sex workers in the city.

He was said to be friendly with several ranks at the outpost prior to him making the sodomy accusation and taken for a medical examination, the result of which is not known.

In November 2013, while in custody for break and enter and larceny at Timehri Police Station, East Bank Demerara, Colwyn Harding alleged that he was brutally beaten and sodomised by a rank with a condom-covered baton.

MEDICALLY EXAMINED He is now in Jamaica to be further medically examined and attended to after being discharged from the Georgetown Public Hospital (GPH) following a surgical operation for a strangulated hernia.

Meanwhile, the Ministry of Home Affairs said, on Thursday, it is awaiting the outcome of the investigation into the allegation of sexual assault of a young boy by policemen in downtown Georgetown.

A statement stated it is most alarming to note that, in the wake of an ongoing allegation of sexual assault yet to be determined, the Guyana Police Force (GPF), while it struggles to regain public confidence, the organisation finds itself further embattled due to this alleged despicable act.

The document noted that, if proven guilty, such elements must be weeded out from the ranks and they would not be worthy of wearing police uniforms.

In the light of this allegation, the ministry calls on the GPF to pay closer attention to its recruitment procedures and screening practices when recruiting civilians into its ranks, so as to ensure that perverts are not allowed entry into the organisation, the statement said.

It said the ministry stands ready, at all times, to assist the GPF in surmounting its challenges but wishes to strongly advise the Force to come to grips with its administrative and operational deficiencies and to embrace, fully, the current effort at reforms in its best interest, particularly, and the people of Guyana in general.

Criminal charges likely for two ranks in Colwyn Harding matter - other cops to face disciplinary action for breaching SOPs

By Leroy Smith

THE Chambers of the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) is not yet in receipt of the file in the Colwyn Harding matter in which several police officers are being investigated on allegations of sodomizing and assaulting the 23-year-old man while he was in their custody at the Timehri Police Station.

Yesterday the Guyana Chronicle was able to confirm that the file is still with the Chairman of the Police Complaints Authority (PCA), Justice Cecil Kennard, a retired Chancellor of the Judiciary, and that file is likely to be sent to the DPP Shalimar Ali-Hack on Monday, providing the investigating ranks make available some additional information available to the PCA chairman which he has requested and was promised would be available today.

However, Justice Kennard stated that based on the information available to him so far, it is possible that at least two of the ranks from the Timehri Police Station could face criminal charges of assault, while other ranks are likely to be slapped with disciplinary action for breaching the Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs).

While not getting into many details with respect to the investigation and the contents of the file, the PCA chairman told this newspaper during a telephone interview yesterday that he has requested two other statements to facilitate the closing of his part of the investigation.

OPEN MIND He said further that he has an open mind to the investigation and when those two additional statements are presented to him and he peruses them, he will then be able to determine whether criminal charges should be brought or disciplinary action taken.

Meanwhile, Crime Chief Seelall Persaud did say two weeks ago at a press conference that based on the initial reports with respect to the Colwyn Harding case there were a number of procedures which were not followed and he vowed that they all will be investigated.

Last year Harding was abused while in police custody and the matter came to light early this year, sparking much public outrage.

In light of the seriousness of the alleged offences and widespread public interest in the matter, the Police Commissioner held a press conference and made it clear that the case was being thoroughly investigated and those guilty of any wrong doing will face the full brunt of the law.

The Police Commissioner has since confirmed that eight members of the Guyana Police Force (GPF), besides Constable 19175 Devin Mahendra Singh, have been removed from the Timehri Police Station, East Bank of Demerara.

Singh was the first rank to be removed from the station and placed under close arrest following the allegation of sexual assault committed on Harding in November last year.

Meanwhile, three other police officers have been placed under close arrest and a probe launched after a 16-year-old boy alleged that he was sodomized by the police while in custody at the Police Outpost in the vicinity of the Stabroek Market in Georgetown.

CHIEF Justice (Ag.) Mr. Ian Chang, SC, yesterday issued a Nisi Order for a Writ of Habeas Corpus, calling on the police commissioner to show cause why he should not immediately release Keron Herbert, who is being detained at the Bartica Police Station.

The Order granted to Attorney-at-Law Mr. Glenn Hanoman on behalf of Kenneth Herbert, father of Keron, seeks to have the police commissioner appear before the judge in Chambers at 11:30 hrs on Monday.

The Notice of Motion seeks to have the detained person presented before the honourable court immediately after the receipt of such writ to undergo and receive all and singular such matters.

The motion has reportedly followed the arrest of Keron Herbert after he had been released by Bartica Magistrate Dylon Bess from a charge of murder.

In the affidavit in support of the motion, the applicant is saying that two minutes after he had been released, police from the Bartica Police Station had assaulted him outside of the Bartica Police Station compound, and had immediately, forcibly returned him into police custody.

GUYANA CHRONICLE Saturday February 1, 2014

Aries March 21 - April 19

The heavens have arranged for some major-league changes. Happily, this time, you’ll actually be able to appreciate the outcome. The steps along the way might not be great fun, especially if you have to say goodbye to someone or something, but the ends will definitely justify the means. Fortunately, you’ve never been afraid of hard work -- or extra work -- so you’ll come through this transition with flying colours.

Taurus April 20 - May 20

You’re not usually the sappy type. Well, you’ll need to get past that now, especially if you’re already with someone you consider delectable. Because the heavens have seen fit to arrange a veritable buffet of romantic interludes, and you’ll certainly be able to partake of at least one. In fact, you’d better confine yourself to just one. Jealousy isn’t pretty -especially yours.

Gemini May 21 - June 21

You’ve been so good for so long -- worthy, even, of outright adoration -- that you’re not sure who you are anymore. After last night, it’s easy to see how your sweetie might think they couldn’t live without you, now that they’ve seen what living with you would be like.

It’s all right. Let them stay for a while and be yourself at all costs. Give them a day or two, and you’ll be off that pedestal.

Cancer June 22 - July 22

Just after you wake up, you’ll realise that the romantic roll you’ve been on isn’t just good -- in fact, it’s about to get better. In addition to luring all kinds of attractive options your way, you’ll be able to have your pick -- and the pickings will be quite fine. But how will you know that? Simply by checking your email and your voicemail. But sit down and get comfy first -- it’ll be a while.

Leo July 23 - August 22

You’re not usually the type to overspend -- at least, not on a regular basis. But when something catches your fancy, the impulsive side of your nature takes over and you let go. Prepare yourself, because that’s exactly what’s coming your way right now. If you can’t afford it, you’d better place your plastic and cheque book under the lock and key of a frugal friend who’s telling you to watch it.

Virgo August 23 - September 22

You woke up this morning with the urge to cry for absolutely no reason. No conscious reason, at least. You’re not sad; you’re just feeling extremely sentimental. Now that can be good or it can be bad -- and if you’re not in a situation where you feel comfortable expressing your feelings, it can be awkward. Oh, well. When all is said and done, no one will ever accuse you of being a phony. And think of the sympathy!

Libra September 23 - October 22

There’s no easy way to solve this situation, especially since you’re not seeing things quite as clearly as usual. Your heart is involved, and that’s when things get tricky. All you can do is ask a loved one, who tends to be objective, for their take on the situation. And you can speak honestly. The good news is that once the nonsense is over, romance is on the agenda.

Scorpio October 23 - November 21

That certain someone you’ve been exchanging long, lingering glances with at work?

They’re preparing to ask for a bit more of your time. Now, if this is a potential relationship, be sure it won’t interfere with your career before you take the next step. It’s a lot easier to stop glancing than to explain why you won’t be accepting the invitation to date number three.

Sagittarius November 22 - December 21

Is love grand, or is it grand? You’re definitely the person to ask today -- in fact, you’re just about buzzing, you’re so darned pleased with yourself. Don’t keep these good feelings bottled inside. Surprise someone late this afternoon or early this evening. Give them a call and suggest that you two get together and pretend it’s a Saturday night. If anyone can pull it off, it’s you.

Capricorn December 22 - January 19

You’re not used to this -- to being so emotional, that is. So when your eyes start welling up with tears (again), and everyone who knows you tells you to take a nap, don’t argue with them. They’re genuinely concerned, and you really can’t blame them. It’s not as if you act like this every day, now is it? Be as patient and understanding as you possibly can. Your loved ones certainly are.

Aquarius January 20 - February 18

The changes you’ve been waiting for are coming fast and hard; luckily you’ll have plenty of energy to get the job done. So when you’re suddenly asked to step up to the plate and take on a bit more responsibility, you’ll be only too happy to agree. Oh, and don’t worry about being compensated, either. You’ll likely be very pleased with the package on the table -- and they’ll be thrilled with your results!

Pisces February 19 - March 20

Congratulations. What you’re about to enjoy is better than finding a winning lottery ticket on the sidewalk. The heavens have arranged an absolutely heavenly -- if you’ll pardon the pun -- array of callers, all of whom will be intent on making you happy. Fortunately, the right one will indeed be among the crowd that’s amassing. All you have to do is show up and interview applicants. Tough job.

Annai gearing up for first-ever Rupununi Music and Arts Festival

By Ravin Singh

FROM February 14th – 16th, Guyana will see the dawn of a new musical masterpiece as the Amerindian Village of Annai launches the first-ever Rupununi Music and Arts Festival.

Expected to become an annual event, the music festival aims at boosting Guyana’s tourism sector through its exhibition of local arts and crafts and other cultural presentations.

The event will see performances from international artistes such as Keith Waithe (Guyana/UK), Marc Mathews (Guyana/UK), Filligar (USA), Drew Gonsalves (Canada), Aref Durvesh (UK), Chris Murtagh (UK), Ramon Goose (UK), Namvula (Zambia/UK) and Muha (Ukraine/UK).

And several local artistes will also make appearances, including Desmond Atherly, Desmond Atiwell, Trevor Rogers, Ras Camo, Tadja drummers and Raghu’s Tassa, Surama Cultural Group and Buxton Fusion.

The purpose of this event, according to Festival Director Bobb Ramdhanie, is to celebrate and promote Amerindian culture, while complementing the weekend with local entertainers and artistes from around the world.

The event will seek to create local employment for residents of Rockview and Annai villages even as it brings all regional communities of the Rupununi together.

Packages for accommodation include weekend tickets at US$140 per adult and a day ticket at US$50. For young adults between the ages of 13-18, weekend tickets cost US$65 and a day ticket would cost US$25.

Annai is home to the Rock View Ecotourism Resort, an old ranch built in the 1950s. Rock View is a good base for trips to

the Iwokrama Canopy Walkway. Off the Rock View premises there’s a lot to do too. If hiking and the more physical stuff is your thing you may want to try the nature trails that have been cut into the foliage of the Pakaraima foothills or climb the naked foothills and get a panoramic view of the savannahs sprawling before you.

BENABS AVAILABLE Of course, there would be many available benabs that can accommodate visitors, thus affording them the luxury of dining, playing, and enjoying lulling music under the stars.

The many mining roads contractors present at the meeting yesterday

Mining roads contractors discuss infrastructure development

By Ravin Singh

THE Ministry of Natural Resources and the Environment in collaboration with the Hinterland Infrastructure Committee (HIC) yesterday held a special meeting for mining roads contractors at the Guyana Forestry Commission, Kingston.

The meeting saw members of the Guyana Gold and Diamond Miners Association, including Mr. Patrick Harding and Mr. Colin Sparman; Hinterland Engineer, Mr. Naeem Mohamed; Mr. Gavin Agard and Mr. Arun Richard, all of whom delivered constructive presentations on infrastructure development across mining areas in Guyana. Present also was Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Natural Resources and the Environment, Mr. Joslyn McKenzie.

However, due to unforeseen circumstances, Minister of Natural Resources and the Environment, Robert Persaud was unable to attend.

The presentations highlighted issues faced by the Ministry of Natural Resources and the Environment, presented by Guyana Gold and Diamond Miners Association with regards to the quality of roads. Complaints have also been made by other mining companies about the safety of the roads. Other issues of concern were that of contractors not possessing an adequate workforce and the timely

completion of projects.

To address this issue, however, Mr. Enrico Woolford, Editor-in-Chief at Capitol News, later suggested that contractors must develop a 5-10 year strategic plan on infrastructure development, then execute this plan annually. He also added that contractors should take into consideration the uses of the roads after they are built. “We can’t be building roads with 2 inches and 3 inches capping for trucks that have to convey huge loads.”

Mr. Joslyn McKenzie (left), Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Natural Resources and the Environment in his address to contractors at the meeting yesterday Some of the proposed projects that are expected to be done during 2014 include the Port Kaituma internal road (Region 1), Region 10 internal road to Mahdia, Bartica/Potaro to Mahdia road and in Region 10 Linden to Mabura road. It was mentioned too that maintenance of roads should also be of high priority and contractors should not wait for deterioration of roads before maintenance work is done.

Through this initiative, the Ministry of Natural Resources and the Environment, the Ministry of Public works, the Hinterland Infrastructure Committee and the Guyana Gold and Diamond Miners Association will together seek to improver infrastructure in the hinterland region and more so, in the mining industry through strategic planning, accurate execution and developmental processes.

Chinese celebrating 2014 as ‘Year of the Horse’

THE Chinese community celebrates 2014 as the ‘Year of the Horse’, reflecting on the previous year’s achievements and going forth with anticipation of a better one.

Several activities are planned for the occasion and it was reiterated by officials of the Chinese Association of Guyana that, on this day, the celebrations are family oriented, with dinners and visits.

Families travel for long distances to meet and make merry. Known as the ‘Spring Movement’, a great migration takes place in China during this period where many travellers brave the crowds to get to their hometowns.

Food is an important component of the New Year and traditional dishes include ‘nian gao’ or ‘sweet sticky rice cake’ and savoury dumplings, which are round and symbolise never

ending wealth.

A dinner called ‘Nian Ye Fan’ is held on New Year’s Eve, during which family members gather and the venue will, usually, be in or near the home of the most senior member of the family. The New Year’s Eve dinner is very large and sumptuous and, traditionally, includes dishes of meat, namely - pork, chicken and fish.

The Association will then host a dinner to commemorate this occasion with their community and the dishes prepared for this event all have significant names pertaining to the Year of the Horse.

SEVERAL ASPECTS The Association will be hosting its inaugural Chinese New Year Fair at the National Park on February 9 and, according to the Association, the fair will feature several aspects

of the Chinese culture, the Lion Dance, the Dragon Dance, fashion displays and the Lantern Ceremony.

Foods such as ‘Dim Sum’ will be on sale and patrons will also be able to purchase other cuisines as well as ornaments and more relics associated with the culture.

In an interview with the Guyana Chronicle, the Association highlighted that 2013 was a very special year for the Chinese community, since they celebrated their 160 years of existence in Guyana. There were also projects done in 2013 that will continue into the New Year as an ongoing mission.

Seminars done with the Ministry of Labour, Guyana Revenue Authority (GRA) and the National Insurance Scheme (NIS) were conducted to educate the community on the laws and obligations that govern the

local business sector.

The Association, in 2014, will initiate a programme to teach English to the Chinese nationals who have already found an instructor willing to volunteer the service.

In the early days, there were settlers here from Guangdong Province, who brought the art of cooking and there is now an influx from Jiangxi and Zhejiang Provinces, which are manufacturers and clothing experts, hence the opening of the clothing stores and proliferation of building construction.

The most important holiday for Chinese around the world is undoubtedly Chinese New Year. The centuries-old legend on its origins varies from teller to teller, but they all include a story of a mythical monster that preyed on villagers. The lion-like monster’s name was

‘Nian’ which is also the Chinese word for ‘year’.

The stories also all include a wise old man who counsels the villagers to ward off the evil Nian by making loud noises with drums and firecrackers and hanging red paper cut-outs and scrolls on their doors because, for some reason, the Nian is scared of the colour red. The villagers took the old man’s advice and the Nian was conquered. On the anniversary of the date, the Chinese recognise the passing of the Nian which is synonymous, as well, with celebrating the New Year.

The date of Chinese New Year changes each time, as it is based on the lunar calendar. 2014 is the Year of the Horse, which is not only a symbol of travelling but a sign of speedy success, intelligence and endurance.

Roraima Holdings launches sixth Annual Wedding Expo at Duke Lodge

By Michelle Gonsalves

Last year’s “Race to the Altar” competition winners were Rudolph and Oshani Davis. They were at the launch yesterday.

THERE exists “a natural wedding market’ in Guyana, but it needs more incentives. This is the view of acting Tourism Minister Irfaan Ali, expressed yesterday as the 6th Annual Wedding Expo was launched at the Roraima Duke Lodge in Duke Street, Kingston, Georgetown.

Earlier this week, Minister Ali had discussions with Cuba’s Director of International Relations, Mr. Rosa Adela Mejias Jimenez, about the prospect of joining forces on tourism.

Ali cited Cuba in detailing that, that nation has a thriving wedding industry. Noting that the wedding experience begins even before check-in, Ali pointed out those new developments such as PANAMA-based Copa Airlines’ commencing service to Guyana in July,which will help to facilitate a seamless transition for persons in the Region to be married in Guyana, and have the option of going for a honeymoon at any destination in South America.

Citing antiquated wedding laws as one possible deterrent, Minister Ali noted that Guyana has “a natural wedding market”, but more incentives need to be in place to make Guyana a premier wedding destination.

He also posited that a website should be created to furnish with information a person looking to have a wedding in Guyana, without that person having to confront “50 pages” when they type in the search term “weddings in Guyana”.

Ali also noted that Guyana has several comparative advantages as a wedding destination, including a wide variety and low cost of food; variations in culture; low cost rentals; and heritage sites and destinations Captain Gerald “Gerry” Gouveia, CEO of Roraima Holdings, said the annual expo, which showcases an array of wedding products and services, gives small businesses an opportunity to market their goods, and also encourages large companies to benefit their country by being a part of the expo.

Gouveia said the idea of a local expo originated from similar expos that took place in Jamaica, but he noted that while those chiefly

featured only Christian weddings and white dresses, this expo takes into account all of Guyana’s religions and ethnicities, and features an array of colours.

President of the Tourism and Hospitality Association of Guyana (THAG), Mr. Kit Nascimento, agreed that Guyana should be a premier wedding destination. He opined that Guyana has places that are enormously attractive, and he praised Gouveia for being a person who “thinks up new things”.

Last year, a “Race to the Altar” competition was introduced, allowing engaged couples to compete for an all-expenses-paid wedding, which took place during the expo. Most of the excited couples were present at that expo and expressed their appreciation for the competition. Last year’s winners, taxi driver Rudolph Davis and his wife Oshani, were present and were in for some good-natured teasing, as Oshani is now pregnant.

The advent of Roraima Airways Wedding Expo in 2009 marked an initiative by the Roraima Holdings management to introduce a new product to the Guyanese market, and to begin to create a public profile for wedding tourism, an offering for which other countries in the Region have already made their name internationally.

The brochure for the fifth annual expo in 2013 stated that the Roraima wedding expo sought to provide a glimpse of the benefits that could be derived for both the tourism sector and the Guyana economy as a whole, through embracing wedding tourism as a sub-sector of a wider, emerging tourism sector, to excite the fancy of couples contemplating nuptials, and to create a marketplace where sellers and buyers of goods and services associated with weddings would meet.

Simultaneously, the launch of Wedding Expo coincided with Roraima’s acquisition of Duke Lodge, an historic state hall which the company transformed into a hotel, restaurant and reception hall.

Wedding Expo was a success from its inception, as the spacious, well-appointed premises of the Roraima Duke Lodge, including its attractive swimming poolside, was an ideal place for product display to the hundreds of persons who represented a captive market.

The expo will be hosted on the premises of the Duke Lodge from March 28 to 30, with the live wedding taking place on March 29th.

Malta Supreme Guyana crush Ireland in Super50 opener with 114- run victory

By Calvin Roberts in Trinidad and Tobago (Compliments of Ansa McAl, Regal Stationery, Wartsilla, Romaine Car Wash, F&H Printing and GT&T) THANKS to a swashbuckling and unbeaten 89 from a rampaging Ramnaresh Sarwan, backed by stroke filled half- centuries from Shivnarine Chanderpaul and Trevon Griffith, Malta Supreme Guyana defeated Ireland by 114 runs in their opening WICB NAGICO Super50 contest at the Queen’s Park Oval last night.

Asked to bat first by the Irish, the Guyanese scored an imposing 301 for 3, the highest Regional List A score at the venue, surpassing Jamaica’s 282 for 5 which was scored the previous day against Windward Islands, to which Ireland were restricted to 188 from 38.3 overs.

Sarwan led the way with his unbeaten 89 (62balls, 10x4; 4x6), which preceded Chanderpaul’s 79 (113b 7x4, 1x6), Griffith’s 62 (96b, 5x4; 1x6), skipper Christopher Barnwell’s robust 31 (15b, 3x6, 2x4) and an entertaining and unbeaten 27 from Leon Johnson (14b, 4x4, 1x6).

Kevin O’Brien, who bowled seven overs unchanged after being introduced in the 28th over, took all three wickets to fall for 56 runs for Ireland, even though he conceded 34 runs from his final three overs, as

-half centuries for Sarwan, Chanderpaul and Griffith the 33 year old Sarwan rolled back the years with his spectacular hitting in the depth.

Earlier in the day, Chanderpaul and Griffith posted 129 for the first wicket from 29.2 overs, with both batsmen chalking up boundaries off Max Sorensen, while a Chanderpaul on drive to long on off Tim Murtagh in the fourth over, set tongues wagging.

As if to show that the shot was not a lucky one, he repeated the act in the following over, this time off Sorensen, even as Griffith got into his stride by turning Alex Cusack off his legs twice for boundaries in the seventh over.

The Guyanese, who left out Royston Crandon, Robin Bacchus and Assad Fudadin from their final 11, reached their first of six 50s from 14 overs, while the second one was realised in the 24th over, as Chanderpaul and Griffith who were both on 47, realised their team’s 100 from 23.2 overs.

Chanderpaul was the first to reach his 50, from 71 balls with five fours while Griffith followed suit after the next delivery, using 78 balls of which he struck four fours and the innings’ first six over squareleg off John Mooney.

In his haste to up the scoring, Griffith was dismissed courtesy of a welljudged catch by Sorensen, who dived away to his left at mid-on to hold the offer off Kevin O’Brien in the 30th over and seven overs later, Chanderpaul, who was given a life by Mooney off Kevin O’Brien when on 79 at 160 for 1 in the 38th over, was caught by Murtagh at midon off the final delivery of the said over.

Enter Barnwell to partner a sedate looking Sarwan and immediately the scoring tempo for the team, who won their last Regional title nine years ago, was increased as Barnwell continued with his tremendous form prior to the Guyanese’

departure for this tournament, last Tuesday morning.

He opened his account with two sweetly timed fours through the covers off Kevin O’Brien, then watched as Sarwan got boundaries off Cusack and Murtagh, before the 200 was posted off the first delivery of the 44th over, courtesy of a Sarwan four off Cusack.

Barnwell opened his shoulders by hitting Murtagh over long on twice for six, followed by another back over the head of Kevin O’Brien, who deceived the powerful hitter with a slower delivery, which he hoisted to mid-wicket for Niall O’Brien to take the catch.

However, Sarwan, who posted his 50 from 46 balls with six fours and one six, celebrated the feat with back to back fours off Cusack, while he hoisted the same bowler who was entrusted with the ball for the final over, for two sixes and a four off the first three balls even as Johnson finished things off with a boundary.

All told, the pair added 75 from the remaining 5.3 overs in the Malta Supreme Guyana’s final score of 301 for 3, chalking up 21 runs off the final over, as their team finished with the highest Regional List A score on the venue which was hosting its 100 List A match.

In comparison to Malta Supreme Guyana’s start, Ireland suffered an early setback when Niall O’Brien (04) was lbw to Paul Wintz’ fifth delivery of the first over of his team’s innings, having struck the third one for four with authority through extra cover, while William Porterfield (00) went via the same margin to Ronsford Beaton in the second over.

Cusack worked Beaton for four to backward square, but looked on from the non-strikers end as Gary Wilson (05) offered Barnwell a simple catch at cover, departing with Ireland on 21 for 3 in the seventh over.

Cusack got a life when

National Senior Championships...

From Back Page ing the event across two days was unnecessary given the number of athletes expected to participate.

“We (the AAG) don’t have that many senior athletes registered right now, and because of the number of entries we’ve decided to have it on Sunday only.

The two days was really because we were concerned for the heats and final, because you can’t have an athlete run a heat and the final on the same day.”

Hutson said.

According to Hutson

the event may see somewhere around just under 100 athletes participating at the Championships, which will be the AAG’s second event of the year following the Cross Country race which was held in Berbice last week Sunday.

“I was looking at around 100 athletes but it might be just a little less than that,” Hutson related.

Hutson also noted that several athletes will be using the event to gauge where they stand in terms of preparedness and identifying what they need to work on as the season continues.(Tamica Garnett).

he was on 5 in the next over following Wilson’s demise, when Sarwan grassed an offer at first slip off Barnwell at 22 for 3, with the batsman saying thanks with a four through extra cover two deliveries later.

His reprieved was shortlived, as Wintz bowled him in the next over, before the same bowler was struck for 4, ,4 and 6 by Kevin O’Brien, while Andrew Poynter got a boundary of his own off Beaton, as Ireland got to 50 for 4 in the 12th over.

Poynter and Kevin O’Brien repaired the damage that was done to their team, by adding 59 for the fifth wicket, before the latter was lbw to Devendra Bishoo’s final delivery of his first over and the 18th in the Irish innings.

Money was lbw to Bishoo, but on a referral, it was noted that the leg spinner stepped

Nevertheless, Poynter continued to show fight with 6, 4 ,6 off Bishoo, even as Sorensen showed he is no rabbit with the bat, by hitting Permaul for four while Poynter got his fourth half century at this level from 63 deliveries, decorated with four fours, before he was run out by Barnwell off Permaul, looking for a cheeky single to point, four runs later.

He struck five fours and two sixes in his 65- ball knock, which did not stop Malta Supreme Guyana from romping to victory, as Narsingh Deonarine (2 for 6) mopped up the tail to offer support to Wintz (3 for 30), while Beaton took 2 for 41 and Bishoo and Permaul a wicket each.

GUYANA CHRONICLE Saturday February 1, 2014

SA experts pleased with selection of McLaren and Parnell IT was the beginning of a new era for South African cricket this week as the first postKallis Test squad was named, and the general consensus in the Republic seems to be, “well done, now bring on the Aussies”.

Bowling all-rounders Wayne Parnell and Ryan McLaren were both included in the Proteas squad, and while no one is expecting either of them to fully fill the giant shoes left by Jacques Kallis, at least one of them is just about guaranteed to feature in the first Test against Australia starting February 12.

There was very little criticism of the selections by the South African media, with most agreeing a bowling all-rounder was the most appropriate replacement for Kallis However, at least one former international was left confused by the absence of young paceman Kyle Abbott, who is yet to play a Test since taking an incredible nine wickets on debut almost a year ago.

“The South African Test squad contains just the one surprise and that is the omission of Kyle Abbott,” wrote

Ryan McLaren former Australia and South Africa batsman Kepler Wessels in his SuperSport blog.

“Abbott can consider himself unlucky to miss out, particularly bearing in mind the fact that he did so well in his only Test match at SuperSport Park in Centurion which is the scene of the first Test against Australia.”

Wessels didn’t dwell too long on Abbott’s absence, moving on to the most pressing matter now faced by se-

lectors - which player out of McLaren and Parnell will be in the actual XI for the first Test?

“There is a strong suggestion that Wayne Parnell is going to be in the team for the first Test,” Wessels wrote “There is apparently an argument for his selection based on the fact that he has the ability to bowl over a 140 kilometres an hour, he provides variation with his left-arm seam and bats a bit as well.

“Should Parnell be selected the powers that be will go away from the practice of selecting seven specialist batsmen.

“Should this happen, the selectors will hope that the top six batsmen are in good form. If they are, then the all-rounders from number seven onward won’t be exposed.

“If, however, the specialist batsmen don’t fire, then the pressure will be firmly on the bowling all-rounders to perform with the bat as well.”

Speaking of South Africa’s batsmen - they are much better than Australia’s, apparently.

That’s the opinion of legendary Proteas batsman Barry

Richards, who believes it will be the batters, rather than the much-hyped bowling attacks that will decide next month’s series.

“Our batting unit is definitely superior, while our bowling unit is equal to theirs,” Richards told Fanie Heynes.

Well that settles that, then.

But one thing that could change this seemingly simple equation is injury, and the struggles in that department facing Graeme Smith and A.B. de Villiers in particular.

Both are expected to overcome minor problems in time for the start of the series, but if one of them is a bit slower than usual in their rehab, it will leave a serious hole in the Proteas batting line-up.

I t ’s s o m e t h i n g H e i n z Schenk observed in his column for The Citizen.

“Generally there’s a bit of a blasé attitude when it comes to injuries to Graeme Smith and AB de Villiers.

“They always raise the spectre of not getting fit in time for a next series before thankfully making it.

“But there’s little doubt that we take that for granted.

What if those two actually don’t make it in time for this series?

“Smith’s potential absence represents one of the selection issues I believe the selectors have been really slack on.

“You’d think that Dean Elgar, whose been part of the squad for some time now would be the logical choice to open with Alviro Petersen given the fact that at domestic level he indeed bats there for the Knights.

“That shouldn’t prevent us though from acknowledging

that it’s a problematic position in terms of depth.”

But maybe South African fans should be less concerned about Smith’s injuries and more worried about his commitment to his country’s Test side.

That sounds like an odd question, given he’s served his nation with distinction for the best part of a decade, but the Proteas skipper caused a bit of a stir earlier this month when he took up Irish citizenship.

Smith explained the decision as one of convenience, given he’s married to Irish singer Morgan Deane and half his family is Irish, but it did lead to concerns the 32-year-old is thinking of winding down his international career.

Either that or he’s considering leading Ireland to glory at next year’s Cricket World Cup.

Confident Clarke lays down challenge to South Africa bowlers

By Nick Said POTCHEFSTROOM, South Africa -(Reuters) - Australia captain Michael Clarke has laid down the challenge to South Africa’s bowlers to prove they are the world’s best attack after suggesting yesterday his side owned that honour ahead of their threematch Test series starting on February 12.

The fast-bowling trio of Dale Steyn, Vernon Philander and Morne Morkel had played a leading role in catapulting South Africa to the number one Test ranking, but following their recent Ashes series whitewash of England, Clarke believes Australia’s attack is even better.

“I’m a little bit biased, but in my opinion this Australian attack is the best in the world,” Clarke told reporters.

“From what I’ve seen from the Australian fast bowlers over a long period of time, I feel we have the best attack in the world.”

Fast bowlers Mitchell Johnson (37 wickets in the five-match Ashes series) and Ryan Harris (22), off-spinner Nathan Lyon (19) and seamer Peter Siddle (16) led Australia’s charge against England and are expected to continue in South Africa.

Clarke has predicted another tough series for the batsmen on both sides on what are generally sporty wickets in South Africa that provide an even battle between bat and ball.

“I think it’s going to be a tough tour for the batters. You have two very good bowling attacks. I don’t know what the

Mitchell Johnson and Shane Watson arrive for the South Africa tour in Johannesburg on Wednesday.

Australia came in for some wickets are going to be like, but generally there is a bit in the wickets in South Africa.”

SLEDGING TACTICS Despite believing his side have the better bowling unit, the Australian captain does say the Proteas are favourites for the series, an admission perhaps that his side’s batting remains a worry.

“Being in South Africa’s backyard, I would imagine they will be favourites but that doesn’t bother us. We just need to continue to play the way we played through the Australian summer.

“We need to make sure we’re scoring enough runs.

We’re up against a very good bowling attack. Our bowlers need to keep executing to take 20 wickets in a Test match. The South African batting line-up is extremely strong even without Jacques being in there.”

criticism for the sledging tactics adopted against England and although he says he expects there to be some “hard-fought” cricket in the series, the atmosphere is unlikely to have the same needle as the Ashes.

“I know Graeme quite well and a lot of the South African players. There’s a lot of mutual respect for both teams. You’ll see some hard-fought cricket, but both teams get on very well off the field. You’ll see both teams get together after the game for a few quiet beers.”

Despite losing their last two home series to the Proteas, Australia have not been beaten on their last six visits to South Africa since the 4-0 mauling they received in the 1969/70 season.

Australia will play a fourday warm-up match against a South African Invitational XI in Potchefstroom starting on Wednesday.

Australia thrash England to win T20 series in Melbourne AUSTRALIA added the Twenty20 series to their victories in the Ashes and one-day internationals as an eight-wicket win over England gave them a 2-0 lead.

England lost four wickets in as many overs early in their innings in Melbourne and only Jos Buttler (22) passed 20 in their mediocre 130-9.

Cameron White struck 57 and George Bailey 60 off 28 balls with three sixes as Australia won with 31 balls left.

It was their 11th win out of 12 in all formats against England on the tour.

England followers grasping optimistically for a crumb of comfort from a wretched campaign will quickly have realised that few were on offer at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.

Instead it was 39-year-old Australian Brad Hodge who savoured the occasion before a crowd of 64 385.

Cameron White and George Bailey saw Australia over the line with more than five overs to spare.

nership in just 48 balls between White and Bailey meant Hodge was not required with the bat.

Things had begun well enough for the tourists. Stuart Broad, the first England player to reach 50 T20 international caps, won the toss and Michael Lumb hit four fours in the opening two overs.

But three wickets fell in as many overs, and although Joe Root stroked three of his opening six deliveries to the boundary, he then committed the cardinal sin by running-out the team’s best batsman in the seventh over.

Morgan had outrageously reverse-pulled his opening delivery for four but was adjudged to have failed to ground any part of his equipment when he slid in for a quick single as Hodge’s throw from cover crashed into the stumps.

Root then compounded his

error nine balls later when he ran himself out, pressing for a two and not getting very close.

Ravi Bopara had struck a stunning unbeaten 65 in a losing cause in the opening match on the small boundaries of Hobart on Wednesday, but with the shortest measuring 65m at the MCG he made only six singles before picking out deep mid-wicket.

And England’s last remaining hope of a challenging total disappeared when Buttler, who had been becalmed with only two singles in 12 balls, was lbw in the 16th over.

Such a paltry total needed something inspirational with the ball but White dispatched three fours in the opening over from Broad and three more in five deliveries from Jade Dernbach as 48 came from the first 30 deliveries.

Tim Bresnan restored some order, the only bowler not to

concede a boundary as just 11 runs came from his three overs, including the wicket of Aaron Finch lbw in the sixth over, although replays showed the ball would have passed over the stumps.

Dernbach’s first two overs had gone for 24 and 18 came from his third, Bailey launching an imperious six deep into the crowd over the long-on fence.

The captain reached his second Twenty20 international half-century from a mere 24 balls and victory was reached with three fours in four balls off the spin of James Tredwell, another to bear the brunt of the onslaught as his 23 deliveries leaked 36 runs.

England will attempt to avoid another whitewash when their tour concludes with the final T20 encounter in Sydney tomorrow. (BBC Sport)

Taylor ton lifts New Zealand to another win NEW Zealand wrapped up a 4-0 series win with an 87run victory over India in the fifth and final one-day international in Wellington yesterday.

Ross Taylor, fresh from an unbeaten 112 in Hamilton last time out, smashed a second consecutive century as the hosts reached 303 for five.

In reply, India could limp to only 216 before they were skittled out in the final over, with Black Caps debutant Matt Henry taking four wickets at the cost of just 38 runs.

As has been the case in every match this series, India won the toss with skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni putting the hosts in to bat.

It looked a shrewd move early on when openers Jesse Ryder (19) and Martin Gup-

short of three figures, however, as he was removed on 88 by Varun Aaron.

There was no such misfortune for Taylor, who brought up his 10th ODI ton in 105 balls - a knock which featured 10 fours and a six.

His innings was ended by Mohammed Shami with the very next delivery, but his contribution was nevertheless key as the hosts ran up an imposing total, that also saw good contributions from Brendon McCullum (23) and Jimmy Neesham (34 not out).

India’s reply faltered almost as soon as it had begun with opener Rohit Sharma dismissed for just four runs by Kyle Mills, while Henry was soon marking his debut with his first international wicket, removing Shikhar Dhawan on nine.

Virat Kholi (82) and Dhoni (47) mounted a fightback from the visitors but the Black Caps’ total was always beyond them, and as Indian desperation increased their shots became

wilder, leading to a glut of late wickets.

Henry was the chief beneficiary of India’s woes, adding the scalps of Ajinkya Rahane (two), Ambati Rayudu (20) and Bhuvneshwar Kumar (25) to

his personal haul as the hosts comfortably wrapped up a series they have dominated.

Attention now turns to the two-match Test series, which begins in Auckland on February 6. (PA Sport)

Flower steps down as England head coach (REUTERS) - Andy Flower has stepped down as England head coach following his side’s humiliating 5-0 Ashes defeat in Australia, the England and Wales Cricket Board said yesterday.

The Zimbabwean, who had been in charge since 2009, found his position under increasing pressure after England suffered heavy defeats in the Test series and he is now set to be given a new role with the national academy in Loughborough.

“Following the recent very disappointing Ashes defeat it is clear to me that this is now time for England cricket, led by (captain) Alastair Cook, to rebuild with a new set of values and goals,” Flower said in a statement on the ECB website (www.ecb.co.uk).

“This has been a very difficult decision to make and I

remain committed to England cricket and would like to wish Alastair Cook and Paul Downton every success.

“I will remain in my position as a selector for the time being and am currently exploring possible roles within the ECB. The priority must now be to establish the direction and personnel needed to ensure England cricket moves forward.”

Difficult decision to make - Flower “FOLLOWING the recent very disappointing Ashes defeat it is clear to me that this is now time for England cricket, led by Alastair Cook, to rebuild with a new set of values and goals.

“The opportunity to start with a clean slate and begin to instil methods to ensure England cricket is moving in the right direction will be an incredibly exciting challenge for someone but I do not feel like I am in a position to undertake that challenge.

“In order for England cricket to make significant progress I believe that the Team Director, together with the respective captains, needs to be responsible across all formats in order to positively influence the rebuilding process.

“This will ensure complete clarity and continuity across the squads and having stepped aside from the limited overs squads 14 months ago that is not something I am able to do and I do not therefore feel that starting the process would be in

the best interests of all involved at what is a pivotal time for England cricket.

Rixon’s parting words for Cricket Australia … Outgoing assistant coach takes thinly-veiled swipe OUTGOING Australia assistant coach Steve Rixon has taken a parting shot at Cricket Australia (CA).

CA announced on Wednesday that Rixon will not continue in his role as assistant coach of the Australian men’s team, as part of broader changes to team support staff.

Rixon then told a radio station on Thursday he has ‘very little respect for the organisation’.

While senior coach Darren Lehmann wasn’t in Rixon’s firing line, the former Test wicketkeeper made it clear CA High Performance Manager Pat Howard was.

“I don’t like a lot of things they do. They interfere basically with a lot of the cricket decisions over the period of time and I don’t necessarily agree with that,” he told Sky Sports Radio.

When quizzed as to whether Howard was the CA staffer he was specifically talking about, Rixon said: “Let me say, I hope he was a good rugby player.”

However, Rixon said Lehmann and captain Michael Clarke were well-placed to

Steve Rixon continue building the success the Australian team has enjoyed this summer against England.

“With Michael now being very content with where he is, Boof’s obviously come in with a stronger approach to that,” he said.

“That’s why I think cricket’s in a very good shape with Australia, we’re starting to get all those bits and pieces (together).

“Darren will eventually get a team around him that he’s very, very comfortable with and that’s fine. That’s the way

life is, that’s the way it is with coaching.”

The former New Zealand coach will again work with the Chennai Super Kings and hopes to pick up a job with other Twenty20 teams down the track, including in the KFC Big Bash League.

Discussing Rixon on Wednesday, Lehmann said: “I’ve taken the opportunity to look at our current coaching structure and the levels of support I feel we need moving into the future.”

“I’ve mentioned previously that I believe our players can really benefit from more dedicated skill-based training, which means more regular support from technical experts to help work on specific areas of performance.

“This will see various coaches and experts in their field working with the team as and when it is needed. In recent times that’s included people like Mike Young to work on fielding while Shane Warne is going to work with our spinners in a short-term capacity ahead of the ICC World Twenty 20.

Flower also steered England to number one in the world Test rankings in August 2011 following a 4-0 home victory over India.

“Andy has been the most successful coach in England’s history and we at the ECB are very disappointed to see him

leave the role as Team Director,” Paul Downton, managing director of England cricket, said.

“We respect his decision and the reasons for it but we are keen to keep Andy’s experience and outstanding knowledge within the ECB. “We are at advance stages of negotiating a role for Andy within the ECB structure which will best utilise his undoubted skills.”

Jamaica beat Windwards by 14 runs despite Lesporis century PORT-OF-SPAIN, Trinidad (CMC) - Jamaica recovered from a wobbly position to beat Windward Islands by 14 runs on the backs of powerful half-centuries from Tamar Lambert and Andre McCarthy in the opening match of the NAGICO Super50 tournament at the Queen’s Park Oval here on Thursday.

Jamaica slid precariously to 32 for three, jolted by rightarm seamer Mervin Mathew, but a century stand between Lambert and McCarthy revived their innings to 282 for five in their 50 overs.

An unbeaten century from middle order batsm a n K e d d y L e s p o r i s , who starred in a couple of half-century stands, offered the champions hope on the run chase but they fell short and were only able to get to 268 for 8 in their 50 overs.

Mathew snapped up the first three wickets including debutant John Campbell for 16 runs to have the Jamaicans

reeling but Lambert and McCarthy pulled the innings around with a decisive record-breaking stand of 179.

McCarthy was unlucky to miss his century top-scoring with 93 off 124 balls with ten fours and two sixes while Lambert made 88 off 99 balls before he was caught off Delorn Johnson.

Late hitting by Andre Russell (28 not out) and Carlton Baugh (28 not out) took Jamaica past the 280 mark.

Opener Devon Smith and Johnson Charles gave Windward’s a fiery start by putting on an opening stand of 62.

But when Nikita Miller was brought on the breakthrough came. He removed Charles for 40 and the Windwards stumbled to 97 for three.

Charles was caught by Campbell after hitting seven fours and facing 33 balls.

Lesporis, who will have bragging rights for the first century of the season, arrived to add impetus to the

Lesporis shared in a 52run fourth-wicket partnership with Smith who picked up four boundaries in an 81-ball 52 before he was caught by Lambert.

Lambert plans to retire with a bang PORT-OF-SPAIN, Trinidad (CMC) - Former Jamaica cricket captain Tamar Lambert says he wants to retire from first class cricket with a bang after missing a century by 12 runs in the opening match of the NAGICO Super50 tournament at the Queen’s Park Oval here on Thursday.

Lambert, 32, says he may call it a day by 2016, after leading a recovery to score 88 in Jamaica’s 14-run victory over champions Windward Islands He resurrected his team from a slippery 32 for three by sharing in a decisive record-breaking stand of 179 for the fourth wicket with Andre McCarthy (93).

“I have set myself some goals, at age 32. I think I have another two years playing for

Jamaica. So I really want to leave with a bang. Unfortunately I did not really get a hundred and I really want to get it so hopefully, I still have two preliminary round games to play so I can get it,” said Lambert.

“The coach always says I must bowl a lot more. This time around the chairman of the selectors said I am the second spinner so am willing to help out my team whichever way I can.”

Jamaica, with 28 each from Andre Russell and Carlton Baugh, scored 282 for five from their 50 overs while the Windwards, with an unbeaten 100 from Keddy Lesporis, 52 from Devon Smith and 40 from Johnson Charles, got to 268 for 8 in their 50 overs.

Lambert was named manof-the-match for an all-round performance in which he also grabbed two wickets for 32 runs.

“You batting and you find the team thirty-something for three, as a senior player you have to bat through the innings and I thought me and McCarthy really batted well through the

middle part of the innings,” said Lambert “I just advised him (McCarthy) to just keep rotating the strike and push the ball into the outfield and sooner or later our time will come and I thought in the middle part our time really came and we really pushed them. We were about to step on it, accelerate and really get up to a very good total.”

Sarwan confirmed back to Leicestershire

LEICESTER, England - Leicestershire have confirmed that West Indies batsman Ramnaresh Sarwan will return as the club’s overseas player next season and have also signed bowler Charlie Shreck on a one-year contract.

The return of Sarwan, 33, was expected as he signed a twoyear deal in 2012.

Former Notts seamer Shreck, 36, has taken 432 first-class wickets at an average just above 30, but was released by Kent at the end of last season.

“I’m looking forward to a new challenge at Leicestershire,” he said.

“The opportunity to play a major role in the bowling attack and lend my experience to an exciting young squad is something that appeals to me and I can’t wait to play a part in helping the club move forward.”

Shreck was Kent’s leading Championship wicket-taker in both his seasons with the club, taking 55 wickets in 2013 and 33 last summer.

Director of cricket Phil Whitticase said: “It is great to have Charlie on board. He has been a consistent performer over the years and has lots to offer us. He is just the bowler we have been looking for in terms of quality and experience.

“We are also delighted to have Ronnie back. They are the two experienced players we have been looking for.”

Schafer returns for new stint as Reggae Boyz head coach KINGSTON, Jamaica (CMC) - Winfried Schafer has returned to Jamaica to begin a four-year stint as head coach of the country’s senior men’s team leading to the 2018 FIFA World Cup Finals in Russia.

The 64-year-old German has agreed to terms with the Jamaica Football Association (JFF) after mulling over a contract presented to him in December.

Apart from his duties as national coach Schafer is expected to play a lead role in the restructuring the JFF technical programmes and the operations of the age-group teams.

“There are going to be some changes, (such as) his assistants,” said JFF president Horace Burrell.

“Schäfer will be working alongside the JFF technical team in helping to reshape and restructure football going forward. It is not going to be business as usual.”

JFF has promised that it will soon release details of its contract with Schafer, who has coached in his homeland, as well as Africa, Asia and the Middle East.

He accepted a four-month

Winfried Schafer contract which ran out last November in an effort to revive Jamaica’s Brazil 2014 World Cup campaign.

The JFF president says he is impressed by the German’s work ethic.

“On one occasion, he drove from Montego Bay to Kingston to watch a game and then drove back down to Montego Bay the same evening to catch a night match,” Burrell recalled.

“Such is the nature of the man in terms of his interest and enthusiasm, and having spent the Christmas with his family, I expect to see an even more energised Schäfer coming back.”

The Reggae Boyz are expected to face 1998 World Cup winners France in a friendly international on June 8 at the Stade Pierre-Mauroy in Lille, France.

Fourth Annual Scotiabank/Pepsi Schools Football Academy launched … Minister Anthony wants PE to be compulsory in school system

By Michael DaSilva THE 4th Annual Scotiabank/ Pepsi Schools Football Academy, organised by the Guyana Sports Development Foundation (GSDF) of the United States of America, was launched yesterday in the Oasis Room of the Pegasus Hotel.

In delivering the feature address, Minister of Culture, Youth and Sport, Dr Frank Anthony, urged the relevant stakeholders to make Physical Education (PE) compulsory in all schools.

Dr Anthony said if parents and teachers do not inculcate in the children, the importance of proper diet and exercise “we’ll have problems down the line, as without a healthy diet and exercise, children can become obese and this will have tremendous problems later in their lives.

The sports minister congratulated the GSDF for its initiative and for the work the organisers have been doing for the development of football especially. “You can see that they have not only been talking, but working.”

He said it is easy for one to stage tournaments, but a holistic approach is needed, adding that sports brings about a cohesive society and it can bring more dividends.

Minister Anthony stressed that sports is a big business and persons can make big money, but cautioned that one has to perform at an elite level and to do that one has to make a lot of investment “and young people need to think about it as sports can also be used to advance one’s education,” Dr

(Photo by Adrian Narine) Anthony stressed.

The minister said there needs to be a balance with sports and academics for one to become a rounded individual.

President of the GSDF, John Yates, in his remarks informed that his organisation is a charitable one that was registered in Florida, USA, but has an office in Guyana.

Yates informed that the Scotiabank/Pepsi Academy has its genesis in 2007 with one of its members, Colin Baker, developing ties with the Guyana Football Federation.

He said Baker was very much concerned about the lack of schools football in Guyana and decided to do something about it, but the major problem

was finance to do what the foundation wanted to do.

Yates said contact was made with the Ministry of Education as well as other entities and the idea was put to Scotiabank who bought into it and through Scotiabank, Demerara Distillers Limited (DDL) came on board.

The first academy started in 2011 with six schools, but the following year that number jumped to 12. Last year the figure moved to 18 schools and this year, there will be 24 schools participating.

The academy is set to get under way on February 10 with a referee training programme for Physical Education teachers, while at the same time, the Football

Coaches Association will assign coaches to the various schools.

A four-month league will subsequently be contested between the participating schools, after which, a national league will be contested.

Yates said the GSDF plans to promote a stronger relationship between schools and the Parent-Teacher Association of the respective schools, since parents need to get involved.

The academy, Yates said, will cater for children between the ages of 10 and 17 including females, since by including females, there will be greater female participation in football locally.

Speaking on behalf of Scotiabank, Jennifer Cipriani said

her organisation is delighted to be involved in the academy which to her is a trailblazer.

She stressed the need for the country’s youths to be rounded individuals and said one way of achieving this is for the youths to take in their education and at the same time to get involved in sports.

She thanked DDL and the GFF for partnering with Scotiabank.

DDL’s representative Sharda Vereen-Chand said Pepsi is happy to be on board and said that when the GSDF approached the company they decided to buy it as it fits directly into their philosophy.

DDL, she noted, has seen the programme getting better every year.

Chief Education Officer in the Ministry of Education, Olato Sam, said when the academy started four years ago, his ministry did not have a structured plan and there were no female football programme in the schools, but since then his ministry has been able to achieve this.

He said the Ministry engaged the GFF as well as the Ministry of Sport and had fruitful discussions.

“Football will be played throughout the academic year,” Sam declared, adding “we at the Ministry as well as the Ministry of Sport are putting structures in place and we have developed a database for players and will keep track of the players’ development.

EBFA/Ansa McAl launches Stag Beer League

… tournament kicks off February 7

By Rawle Toney THE East Bank Football Association (EBFA) yesterday teamed up with Ansa McAl under its Stag Beer brand, to launch its league which commences on February 7.

Eight teams are set to vie for the tournament’s $300 000 first prize and with the winner also claiming bragging rights as the best team under the EBFA. “The launch shows Ansa McAl’s commitment to the sport of football, particularly outside of Georgetown,” explained Stag Beer Brand representative John Maikoo while addressing the media at his company’s Beterverwagting-based head office.

According to Maikoo, the

East Bank League is seen as one of importance to his entity since it’s the first league they have ever sponsored through Stag Beer.

He added, “It’s important that football be played in other areas. We have sponsored leagues on the East Coast and we have the one the West Bank that is currently playing.

So we at Ansa McAl, especially Stag Beer, are extremely happy to make this happen on the East Bank where we know there is a huge following.”

Meanwhile, Wayne Francois, the EBFA president expressed profound gratitude to the distributing company for sponsoring their league, noting “Ansa McAl is always willing to help and for that we’re al-

ways grateful. I know the league will be a welcome one and will be fully supported.”

Francois said that with his association just concluding a tournament that was fully sponsored by the Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sport, the players and supporters of the game are eagerly anticipating the start of the league to settle a few scores.

Newly installed General Secretary Franklyn Wilson endorsed Francois’ sentiments, further adding that the primary venue for the league would be the Grove Community Centre since it’s the only one which gives the EBFA a revenue.

The participating teams are Grove Hi-Tech, Timehri Panthers, Diamond United, Herstelling Football Club, Soesdyke Falcons, Kuru Kururu Warriors and Mocha Champs. squad Wilson said that with Grove Hi-Tech involved in the Guyana Football Federation (GFF) Premier League, they will have to field an entire
