House pays tribute to Nelson Mandela

A MOTION in tribute to late South African President, Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela was adopted in the National Assembly in the early morning of January 17, after several poignant speeches from members of all sides of the House. The Motion will be forwarded through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, to the Government and people of South Africa. The first whereas clause of the Motion states that Guyana has long recognised Mandela as the genuine and legitimate leader of the South African people, a freedom fighter forced to support armed struggle after years of non-violent struggle against apartheid. Mandela or ‘Madiba’ as he was fondly referred to as by his people became the symbol of the struggle for abolition of the system of Apartheid in South Africa. Mover of the Motion and Leader of the House, Prime Minister Samuel Hinds said the Motion calls on the National Assembly and the Guyanese nation as a whole, to formally offer profound condolences to the Mandela family and to the Government and people of South Africa. Mandela, who died at age 95, at his Johannesburg home on December 4, 2012, was an extraordinary man, worthy of all the adulation that flowed from

- unanimously adopts Motion

all parts of the world, the Prime Minister said. “Mandela earned the world’s tribute in the way he met, and in the way he created, many of the extraordinary circumstances of which he spoke…Mandela’s life, the events and his achievements had significance for people across the world,” the Prime Minister stated. He added that the life story of Mandela provides both an example, as well as a challenge to Guyana, to overcome its own problems and the seeming impasse in which it find itself at the political level. The Prime Minister’s Motion stated that from the early 1950s Guyana’s progressive forces, through the People’s Progressive Party and the People’s National Congress, were committed to principled and unwavering support for the African National Congress and the abolition of the system of apartheid, and the creation of a free, independent and democratic South Africa. This was demonstrated significantly through Guyana’s contribution of US$50,000 annually for the African liberation struggle, as well as its agreement for the landing and refuelling of Cuban aircraft en route to support the Southern African

liberation movement’s support for the international boycott of South African goods and sport, and Guyana’s severing of sporting contacts with apartheid South Africa. APNU MP, Basil Williams said the struggles and sacrifices of Mandela are something that should be fully endorsed, and emulated by Guyanese. “As a nation we must feel proud that we were able to effect such revolutionary changes in

Nelson Mandela

Southern Africa,” Williams said. Meanwhile, Minister of Public Works, Robeson Benn, said that looking at the strides South Africa has made, there are now more reasons than ever to take heed in how Guyana is being developed as a young, thriving nation. Speaking on behalf of the AFC, Moses Nagamootoo highlighted the need for the building of a multi-racial society and dealing with the root causes of all inequities. This, he said, are the principles which Mandela stood for. Minister of Home Affairs, Clement Rohee spoke of the lessons that Guyanese could learn from Mandela, and a Motion that was tabled in the legislative council of Guyana in 1951 by the late Dr. Cheddi Jagan, calling on the council to denounce racial segregation in South Africa. This, he said, shows the kind of character of the leader in those days, and said that this is being emulated by the 10th

Parliament by way of this current Motion. Meanwhile, Government’s Chief Whip, Gail Teixeira said the records would show the consistency and principled and progressive positions taken by successive Governments in Guyana in supporting South Africa to have Mandela released from prison and to end apartheid. She explained that in the early years it was non-governmental bodies that took positions against apartheid, not governments, and this is why Guyana’s role in the 1950s is so significant because the country was still a colony. “It was Guyana under the PPP and later under the PNC that paid the price for some of these progressive pro-liberation positions we took… we paid the price politically, the PPP was called communist, the PNC, socialist, we paid the price and we were looked at internationally by the Western powers up to the 1970s with tainted eyes…we paid the price as a people,” she explained.

ARMED BANDIT SHOT DEAD

- in early morning home invasion at Annandale - accomplices escaped but two guns recovered By Leroy Smith AN armed bandit was shot dead in an early morning home invasion yesterday at Annandale, East Coast Demerara and police are searching for his two accomplices. The trio, all of whom were said to be armed had attempted a robbery but, up to press time, the deceased had not been identified, the Guyana Chronicle was told. At approximately 02:00 hrs one of the occupants of the Lot 10 Church Street, Annandale house got up to use the toilet when he heard their dogs barking aggressively. The man then alerted his son who is a licensed firearm holder and a rural constable. The family also operates a taxi service and food business elsewhere. This information was, subsequently, confirmed by a report from the Guyana Police Force (GPF) which stated that the shooting occurred when businessman

The intruder lying on the floor after he was shot by one of the occupants of the house Ishwar Jeffrey, 49, was aroused by the barking of his dogs. He awoke his son, Mananno Jeffrey, who is a rural constable and a member of the Annandale North Community Policing Group, licensed to use the CPG’s gun. The latter armed himself and, on checking, was confronted by the trio in the building. Police said one of the three discharged a round at Mananno Jeffrey and he returned fire,

fatally wounding the shooter while the other two managed to escape. A .38 revolver with three rounds and a spent shell were recovered in the house and another .38 revolver was retrieved outside. Speaking with this publication, Jeffrey said that after he was alerted by his father of the presence of the three men, he too looked outside and by that time one of the men was observed forcing himself through a bathroom window to get into the house. The man said that he hurried to the lower flat of the house by using the inside stairs and while he was half way down the stairs he encountered the bandit who had already made his way through the window. The young man pointed out that the intruder pointed a gun at him after spotting him but he in turn opened fire on the man, missing him in the process. According to him, the bandit then ran down the stairs and concealed himself in a room in the lower flat of the building intending to escape. However, that was not possible since unlike the window the man used to gain entry into the house, the bedroom windows were all grilled. Jeffrey said that knowing very well that the bandit could not escape using the windows in the room, he waited patiently outside the room for the man to exit. He said that the intruder spent about five seconds in the room and then fired a warning shot before attempting to exit the room. According to Jeffrey he was not fazed by the shot since he had already taken cover and was just waiting for the man to exit the room. As the intruder exited the room, Jeffrey said that he shot the man in the jaw severing

Suicide bomb attack on Kabul restaurant ‘kills 14’

(BBC News) AT least 14 people have been killed in a suicide bomb attack on a restaurant popular with foreigners in the Afghan capital, officials say. Foreigners and Afghans are among the dead following the blast in Kabul’s Wazir Akbar Khan neighbourhood. The area is home to a number of foreign embassies and organisations.

The attack happened on a Friday evening when the Taverna du Liban restaurant would have been busy with diners. The suicide attacker detonated his explosives outside the gate of the heavily-fortified restaurant, the Deputy Interior Minister Mohammad Ayoub Salangi said. Two gunmen then entered the restaurant and started “indiscriminately killing” people

Security forces were reportedly quickly on the scene and sealed off the area

inside. Mr Salangi said four women were among the dead. The attackers were eventually shot dead by the security forces when they arrived at the scene. T h e B B C ’s M a h f o u z Zubaide heard the blast and gunfire from at least two kilometres away. He said the gunfire went on sporadically for about 10 minutes. The Taliban has claimed responsibility for the attack, saying it had been deliberately targeting foreign officials. Security continues to be a major concern in Afghanistan. The last remaining contingent of Nato-led forces is due to leave by the end of the year, having handed over security to Afghan forces. Washington is pushing Afghan President Hamid Karzai to sign an agreement which would allow some US troops to stay behind after this year’s withdrawal. The Taliban told the BBC’s John Simpson earlier this week that it was now back in control of large areas of Afghanistan and was confident of returning to power after Western troops left. Our correspondent says it is hard to believe the Taliban could make a comeback as things stand, but their takeover of Kabul in 1996 was unexpected, and they could be strengthened if a weak, corrupt president is elected in April.

Shashi Tharoor:

Minister’s wife Sunanda Pushkar ‘found dead’ (BBC News) THE wife of Indian minister Shashi Tharoor has been found dead, following reports that he was having an affair, Indian media have said. Sunanda Pushkar is reported to have been discovered at a hotel in Delhi. The couple became embroiled in controversy over a series of Twitter messages on Wednesday that appeared to reveal he was having an affair with a Pakistani journalist. They later insisted they were happily married, blaming “unauthorised tweets”. Mr Tharoor married Ms Pushkar, a former Dubai-based businesswoman, in 2010. A public row between the couple erupted on Wednesday when messages began to appear on Mr Tharoor’s Twitter account suggesting he was having an affair with journalist Mehr Tahrar. Ms Pushkar admitted publishing the tweets, but later denied it. She was found dead in a five-star hotel in Delhi, according to police sources. Reports said that her husband had informed the police of her death. It was unclear how she died. Ms Tahrar, who denied having an affair with the minister, tweeted after she heard of Ms Pushkar’s death: “I’m absolutely shocked. “This is too awful for words. So tragic I don’t know what to say. Rest in peace, Sunanda.”

Sunanda Pushkar (L) married Shashi Tharoor shortly after they were involved in a scandal over a cricket franchise for a cricket team. Mr Tharoor, a former UN Ms Pushkar had allegedly diplomat, was forced to resign received a free stake in the from his first ministerial posiIndian Premier League frantion in 2010 amid controversy chise he was bidding for. over his involvement in bidding

World’s tallest man saves dolphin (BBC News) THE world’s tallest man has saved two dolphins by using his long arms to reach into their stomachs and pull out dangerous plastic shards. Mongolian herdsman Bao Xishun was called in after the dolphins swallowed plastic used around their pool at an aquarium in Fushun, north-east China. Attempts to use instruments failed as the dolphins contracted

their stomachs. Guinness World Records list Mr Bao, 54, as the world’s tallest living man at 2.36m (7ft 8.95in). Veterinarians turned to Mr Bao after attempts to extract the plastic shards at the aquarium in Fushun, Liaoning Province, had failed. The mammals had lost their appetite and were suffering depression, aquarium officials said.

Brazil World Cup: More flights scheduled to meet demand

(BBC News) Aviation authorities in Brazil have authorised nearly 2,000 extra flights to cope with soaring demand during this year’s World Cup. There has been mounting controversy over air ticket and hotel prices charged to fans faced with crossing a country the size of the continental US. Some companies have already set price ceilings for domestic flights, though maximum prices are still substantial. Three million home and 600,000 foreign fans are set to travel for the event. The number of people flying in Brazil has risen significantly in recent years, but airlines have

cut routes and staff in a bid to restore profitability. The Civil Aviation Authority said an additional 1,973 new flights would be permitted between 25 airports in June and July.

‘ABUSE’ CONCERNS The routes between Rio de Janeiro and Buenos Aires (Argentina), Brasilia and Sao Paulo, and Fortaleza and Sao Paulo are among those that will have the most additional flights. But some have expressed concern that the additional flights could place extra pressure on already crowded airports and related infrastructure.

Airlines Azul and Avianca Brasil recently pledged to cap one-way domestic fares at 999 reais ($425; £260), but the two biggest carriers - Gol and Tam - have not. Brazilian authorities have suggested that foreign airlines might be allowed to operate internal flights during the tournament if there is evidence of “abusive” price hikes. Hoteliers and consumer groups in Rio have also agreed not to charge prices higher than peak New Year or Carnival season prices, amid reports that tourists face prices of hundreds of dollars per night.

SM Jaleel responds to $600 million drug bust in U.S (Trinidad Express) “SM Jaleel is a family owned and operated business that began its operations in Trinidad approximately 90 years ago. We have consistently maintained our family values throughout the development of the business to include, in more recent times, the global expansion of our operations through the exportation of our trusted products to various countries and communities around the world. We have always taken pride in the high level of quality and standards that we have adhered to for our products and have and will always continue to comply with the various legislations both locally and internationally relating to the production and exportation of our products. It is common knowledge that the criminals involved in the drug trade have been using mechanisms to transport cocaine such as fruit, car parts, lumber, hardware etc. It now appears that someone may be trying to utilize our company’s product in this regard. We too have only just been recently informed of the situation that occurred almost a month ago on December 20, 2013, regarding the use of our TJC orange and grapefruit flavoured juice tins in the smuggling of cocaine in to the United States and have, to date, not been contacted by the relevant US authorities in connection with this matter. At present we have no knowledge or evidence of the details other than the press release from the United States. We have already commenced our own internal investigation; however, we are not yet in a position to provide any further details at this time.”

Language barrier: Businessman mulls importing multilingual workers because skills not here Mark Titus, Gleaner Writer Western Bureau: (The Gleaner) Frustrated by his numerous failed attempts to recruit multilingual workers, businessman Davon Crump, the chief executive officer of Global Outsourcing Solutions Limited, says he might be forced to look outside of Jamaica for workers so as not to lose some potentially lucrative contracts to areas such as Latin America. Crump, whose Montego Bay-based 200-seat call-centre operation serves some 11 firms, including several international Fortune 500 companies, is of the view that with the scarcity of jobs globally, the Jamaican Government must be proactive in preparing its citizens for the world of work. “We have been seeking to fill these vacancies, which came about during negotiations with prospective clients, but to no avail,” said Crump, who is the immediate past president of the Montego Bay Chamber of

Commerce and Industry. “These firms are demanding that agents representing their brand be able to speak more than conversational Spanish or French, but it’s disappointing that our efforts to recruit such workers locally have not worked out,” said Crump. “We might have to look elsewhere for individuals with the requisite skills, or risk losing these contracts to other countries. “We are falling behind the Latin American countries, who have invested in teaching English to their labour force, and this now gives them a huge advantage in the outsourcing market,” continued Crump. “Jamaica needs to follow their lead and teach other languages for more than conversation.” ADVANTAGE According to Yoni Epstein, president of the Business Process Industry Association of Jamaica (BPIAJ), who signed an agreement with HEART Trust/ NTA last June to train persons in information and commu-

nications technology (ICT), multilingual workers would put Jamaica at a significant advantage in the region. “With our facilities, if we can provide the required skills, it would put Jamaica at a significant advantage,” said Epstein, who is also CEO of Island Outsourcers Limited, which recently opened a 60-seater facility in The Bahamas. “We are in a very competitive market and we must move to address this; we cannot take this for granted,” stated Epstein. Initially, the local ICT sector, which currently employs about 14,000 workers, was projected to grow by 25 per cent per annum, which would result in the call centres recruiting about 2,500 to 3,000 workers per year to keep meeting expected demand. However, there are concerns that with Jamaica unable to supply the skilled workers, international firms will start looking towards India, the Philippines, or Latin America.

There are concerns about how Brazil’s already crowded airports will cope with the additional demand

Not the lawyer representing Kevin October and Cleon Hinds - Kaieteur News article erroneous

EDITORIAL

‘No nonsense’ approach needed to restore Georgetown to its glory days All or most Guyanese are very upset at the horrible environmental state of Georgetown and are yearning for this capital city to be restored to its glory days when it was regarded as the “Garden City”. But it must be recognised that Georgetown did not become decrepit overnight or with the advent of Ms. Sooba as town clerk, as some are naively and foolishly trying to contend. Rather, it has reached this state as a result of a long period of neglect; illegal vending; the increasing use of Styrofoam and plastics; a sharp increase in the number of vehicles; failure to implement policies and programmes to meet new challenges and demands and, of course, mismanagement and corruption at City Hall. It could be argued with a great degree of merit that the latter has been responsible for the former. Much to their credit Georgetown was managed well during the tenures of Mayors Archibald Codrington and Mrs. Beryl Simon. They were the last two mayors who demonstrated an unwavering commitment to ensuring that the city was in a good environmental state and did so by their “no nonsense” approach. With their departure, things began to downslide continuously to where we are now. Lawlessness, garbage, littering, illegal vending, a virtual non-functioning drainage system, traffic congestion, potholed roads, etc, have become the order of the day in Georgetown. This was inevitable because City Hall never adopted a proactive approach and the commitment and dedication to the well-being of Georgetown by City Hall officials were always questionable. It is unimaginable that a mayor would actually defend and encourage illegal vending. It is no wonder that this has become such a huge problem. Guyanese administrators and managers generally have a culture to deal with a problem only when it has reached a precipice. They are totally void of the old adages: “Prevention is better than cure” and “A stitch in time saves nine”. However, it was most heartening and encouraging to have assurances from City Hall officials that they are embarking to do whatever it takes to drain the city and restore it to its former glory, in the wake of the recent indignation arising from the flash flood that came with Tuesday’s heavy and prolonged rainfall, and the ever present and spreading garbage piles. In this regard, already tangible steps are being taken. Beginning Wednesday night, the council, in collaboration with the Ministry of Public Works and the Ministry of Local Government, embarked on a massive cleanup exercise outside the Public Buildings (Parliament). They targeted, first, the area south of Public Buildings, which accommodates the Linden bus park and to the east of the Public Buildings compound. Signalling that enough is enough, City Engineer Venture emphasised, “Businesses are warned that those who complete construction and still have building materials on the roads face having them seized. We will seize them, and the owners will have to pay fines to retrieve them.”

I WRITE in relation to an article published on the front page of the Kaieteur News Tuesday edition dated January 14, 2014 under the caption, “Robb Street Granny Execution… Abusive language hurled, death threats at Magistrate…as two committed to stand trial in High Court”. In that article I was stated to be the lawyer of either one or both of the two accused, Kevin October and Cleon Hinds, who were committed to stand trial for murder by Magistrate McLennan on Monday January 13, 2014. Please be informed that I am not the lawyer representing either accused nor was I in court at the time the two men were committed

and, therefore, I could not have made any representation to the learned magistrate on their behalf. I was also not present in that scenario of mayhem and tumult your reporter described in the said article. In light of the above, I request that Kaieteur News publish an immediate retraction of the references to myself in that article in as prominent a position as accorded the said article. BASIL WILLIAMS Attorney-at-Law

Bandits should look for meaningful work; they must smell their sweat for a decent living like most citizens do I REFER to the published letter: “Something is radically wrong with Guyana” written by Neil Adams, and I must say, he hit the nail on its head smack on. “As reported, the four accused in the Fiedtkou Parris case started a brave ruckus after charges were read. One of the accused began the pandemonium by repeating the words: “How can a dead man’s testimony be taken into evidence … bare sh**t man bare sh**t.” “I believe this guy was relying on the outrageous court case that Fabayo Azore dealt with, when, at the third hearing he promptly freed the criminal citing the flimsy excuse of the non-attendance of a police investigator. I am sure the accused had this matter fresh in his mind and in like manner expected this magistrate to do the same, but she didn’t, hence the continuing onslaught. The other accused then took it upon himself to hurl expletives at the magistrate, intermingled with a murderous threat: “We gun find y’all when we come out … we gat family that can f**k y’all up.” At that stage, instead of slapping the foul-mouthed low lives with additional charges, this magistrate simply asked for the prisoners to be escorted out of the courtroom”. Fantastic! The criminal words to the magistrate: “We gun find y’all when we come out … we gat family that can f**k y’all up,” is an open threat to a magistrate. This is what the majority of citizens are very much afraid of. The criminal spoke the truth when he said, “we gun find y’all when we come out…”. This is also why I often write to say citizens are more afraid of He also sounded a warning that vendors who have recently set up structures to ply their trade will be removed in the weeks ahead. Venture assured also that the City Council will be trying its utmost to improve drainage and the condition of roads to improve the integrity of the city. Meanwhile, regarding the indiscriminate dumping and littering, the council’s Medical Officer of Health, Dr. Jeffrey, almost throwing up her hands in despair, said, “Something is wrong with people…I believe that education is the key.” Noting that her department covers every area, she admitted that a manpower shortage constitutes a serious problem, but gave the assurance that the Public Health Department is willing to work with every sector to prevent outbreaks of sickness and disease. While we welcome these reassurances from City Hall, they should be reminded that we have heard these fine-sounding words many times before but little or no follow up action. City Hall officials must recognise that having grandiose plans is one thing, but implementing and executing them, which is even more important than the plans, is a key issue. They must also recognise that the restoration of Georgetown has to be achieved through short, medium and long-term policies and programmes. In the long term, we have to place our focus on building new road networks, expanding and modernising the drainage system, developing technologically advanced garbage collection and disposal methods and systems, establishing, overhead road bypasses, introducing overhead cable cars to move people around and even consider the construction of a subway system because inevitably, the construction of road networks would reach a saturation point, but the volume of vehicular and commuter traffic would continuously increase, particularly with increased industrialisation. So while it is imperative to focus on the short and medium-term issues, it is equally imperative that we begin now to focus on the long-term issues. Time is running out rapidly.

rogue police officers than bandits. You try reporting a police officer for wrongdoing and you can bet that his criminal buddies in the police force would be coming after you and your family. You rough up a criminal who tried to hurt you or take what you have and you bet he and his family coming after you. It is the criminals’ job to know where their victims reside in Guyana. When these criminals attack you they go for your ID, home address and all, and openly threaten you that “Awe know whe yuh liv suh don’t try callin police”. It should be law that every citizen must own a high-powered weapon more powerful than that of the bandits, so you can take them out in quick order. Crimes in Guyana will be drastically reduced. You bet bandits will sure go looking for meaningful work where they must smell their sweat for a decent living like most citizens do. T. KING

How democratic is the United States of America?

HOW democratic is the United States of America? This is a question that almost no person will ask because we were conditioned by the western media to believe that America is the world’s model of democracy. This Americans feel, by some twisted form of logic, gives them the right and moral justification to intervene in other countries to make them “democratic.” A layman’s view of democracy is simply a citizen’s right to choose who he wants to be governed by through a system of free and fair elections, on the basis of one man one vote and the right to have his vote counted. The layman’s concept of a winner is one who receives the most votes at a free and fair election. The substance of this layman’s understanding of democracy cannot be disputed by any combination of fancy words. However, this is not exactly how democracy works in the “world’s model democracy”, the “United States of America.” It would come as a surprise to almost all Guyanese that under the American electoral system, the president (and vice president), who forms the government, can be elected by a minority of “popular votes” and it will be perfectly normal and lawful.It would also come as a surprise to most Guyanese that the right of a voter to demand that his vote is counted is also limited. Both of these scenarios occurred in the 2000 American presidential election, when Mr. George W. Bush (jr) was declared elected President of the United States. Mr. George W. Bush (jr) received 50,456,002 (47.87%) and Mr. Al Gore received 50,999,897 (48.38%) of popular votes, but George Bush was declared President-elect. Not to mention reported manoeuvres by Republican activists in Florida to prevent supporters of Mr. Al Gore from voting. Manoeuvres that not only prevented voters from reaching polling stations, but were also successful in preventing many thousands from having their votes counted. The American Supreme Court, then dominated by conservatives, ruled (PLEASE SEE PAGE 7)

Commentary By David DeGroot

THE future of our country is at stake with a Parliament labouring over a one-seat majority comprising two political parties which are violently opposed to the ruling party forming the official

administration, and whose responsibility is expected to embark on measures to move the country towards full development. Sadly, this is not happening as rapidly and efficiently as possible because of the perniciousness adopted by the APNU

and AFC political parties. Any sensible attempt to analyse the conduct of the performance of these two parties, will with profundity expose their inability to think clearly the repercussions of their rank disregard for the development of the country. They care less about making

this country a laughing stock and highlighting the tenuousness of operating a government with a one-seat opposition majority, thereby making the administration unable to guarantee its obligations and in the process, creating wariness amongst potential investors. This is a most troubling phenomenon that will affect the future fortunes of our young country, still grappling with the task of transforming the social

Ram is politically biased with ulterior, wicked intentions I READ an article in the Kaieteur News on Monday January 13, 2014, under the headline: “Forestry Directors should be hauled before the courts - Chris Ram”. Kindly permit me to state the following in the Guyana Chronicle in relation to this article: 1. Christopher Ram is not the right authority to make pronouncements on public accountability, rather it is the Attorney General (AG). Ram is a very controversial figure who is politically biased and has ulterior, wicked intentions. 2. Where was Ram in the days of the widespread corruption under the illegal PNC regime? Why did he fail to report on those years of the PNC’s non-submission of reports to Parliament? Why this silence? It is because Ram is a part of them. 3. Never in the history of Guyana has there been such largescale corruption that occurred under the PNC and, to date, Ram the accountant and analyst with his continued silence thinks that is ‘ok’ and that the PNC has done the right thing. Very good Mr. Ram, but the Guyanese people are not foolish and moreso cannot be fooled. 4. But I am still to get what is so wrong with the GFC’s financial report. Ram’s analysis is flawed and has failed to point out any single issue other than his usual rambling, wild accusations and unprofessional behaviour in his effort to gain political mileage and cheap publicity. Ram should familiarise himself with the GFC act that allows the Commission to manage its resources and to make payments. So what is illegal or unconstitutional on the part of the GFC? 5. Ram, unlike the Attorney General, is not independent. He is unprofessional and politically biased. Guyana Stock Feeds Inc. claimed in its 2013 Interim report that the company paid $80.2M in dividends which it did not, according to a Guyana Securities Council Public Advisory which was published in all the daily newspapers. But while Ram made comments on the company’s 2012 results, he

failed miserably to specifically address the “dividends payment” as claimed by Guyana Stock Feeds Inc. (S/N Sat Jan 11th, 2014). This has missed Ram who is not concerned since he and the company are friends and political partners. How one-sided and unprofessional is Ram. 6. Ram and McRae audited the Guyana Stores Limited (GSL) 2009 financial statements but failed to express an opinion, even though the auditor found that the GSL group was in breach of the Companies Act, 1991.

In fact, the ruling by the auditor was “because of the significance of the matters discussed in the preceding paragraphs we do not express an opinion on the financial statements”, Ram and McRae said. The Stabroek News, however, posited that “such a ruling by the auditors would call into question the basis of the financial statements submitted for audit” (Sun S/N Nov 3rd, 2013). Ram in his one-sidedness and unprofessionalism did not critically attack the GSL financial statements, because he and the company are (allegedly) friends. He continues to remain silent, but not on the GFC. 7. Ram criticised former president Mr. Bharrat Jagdeo. Ram is not fit to walk the path of the former president who has four honorary doctorates from very prestigious universities. I am sure that Ram would like to have one, but he cannot even walk the path of the former president much less criticize him. 8.

ills confronting us as a nation. It is a foreboding reality which should arouse the fighting spirits of Guyanese who are concerned with building a truly modern country, where everyone can have a share of the development that is inevitable without the humbug of the effects from the anti-national antics of the APNU and AFC political parties hell-bent on creating havoc in the country. Take for instance their most recent call to place in

jeopardy the rewards of private enterprise, and I refer to the hounding down of the legitimate profits accruing to the shareholders of the Berbice Harbour Bridge; these people are seriously going insane with their oneseat majority in Parliament; they are just floating going nowhere. The absence of a philosophical principle to guide them has left them like a weather cock blowing with the wind.

How democratic is the ... (FROM PAGE 6) against a recount of votes in Florida. A recount which would have resulted in a convincing victory for Mr. Al Gore. For a more detailed account of the US 2000 presidential election I advise that they read “The stolen Presidential Elections” by Michael Parenti (http://www.michaelparenti.org/stolenelections.html) After reading that article you: * would understand why the American Ambassador, is insisting on building the capacity of opposition parties in Guyana * would wonder whether the Americans have been training the PNC/APNU how to rig elections through the ballot box. The Opposition’s actions leading up to and during the 2011 elections seems to be pointing to just that. Some actions of GECOM’s opposition-dominated staff mirrors what the Republicans did in Florida in 2000. Where else in the world can a president be elected by a minority of over half a million of popular votes? Only in the world’s model democracy, the United States of America. We all know what has been the result of the appointment of a minority President of the world’s most powerful nation. Many peaceful and prospering nations have been reduced to war zones and living hells for tens of millions of human beings. Guyana’s president was elected by a majority of popular votes and thus speaks for the majority of Guyanese. The American ambassador must respect this and shelve his controversial project. The opposition likes to call the PPP/C a minority government, but is that really so? The AFC received 10.33 % of popular votes. This simply means that 89.67 % of Guyanese considered the AFC unfit to govern Guyana. The PNC/APNU received 40.83 % of popular votes. This means that 59.17% of Guyanese considered the PNC/APNU unfit to govern Guyana. The overwhelming majority of Guyanese therefore did not see neither the AFC nor APNU fit to govern Guyana. The current PPP/C government is not a minority one. If the AFC and APNU want to justify their claim that the government is a minority one by claiming a vote for one is a vote for the other, then the deliberate deception of their supporters prior to the 2011 election will become even clearer. The PPP has always maintained that a vote for the AFC is a vote for APNU. If the AFC and APNU don’t want to accept this fact, then they are left with the only alternative of accepting that the PPP/C government is not a minority one. FARUK MOHAMED

Finance Minister says…

APNU, AFC trying to rid Guyana of all its human & financial resources - slams Opposition’s persistent hostility to both investors and qualified young Guyanese By Vanessa Narine A PARTNERSHIP for National Unity (APNU) Member of Parliament (MP) Joseph Harmon, on Thursday, responded to a statement by Finance Minister Dr. Ashni Singh, earlier this week, on the party’s line of questioning as it related to the e-governance project, headed by Alexei Ramotar. Harmon questioned why the Finance Minister “pre-empted” the parliamentary questions directed to Prime Minister Samuel Hinds. And at an impromptu press briefing in the Committee Room

investors should be encouraged to invest and grow their business in Guyana. SUSTAINED ABANDONMENT “The actions of the Opposition display a sustained abandonment of this obligation and they must be held accountable for their persistent hostility to both investors and qualified young Guyanese persons,” he insisted. Earlier this week, Dr. Singh pointed out that investors are being chased away and young professionals targeted, two developments that have resulted

In much the same manner, investors should be encouraged to invest and grow their business in Guyana.’ – Dr Ashni Singh of the Public Buildings, he declared that the Finance Minister’s response was “aggressive.” Harmon stated that the answers to those questions will inform further questioning. In an invited comment, Dr. Singh made it clear that his reply had “absolutely nothing” to do with the parliamentary question. The Finance Minister said he is sure it will be answered by the Prime Minister at the appropriate time. “I maintain my position that responsible political leadership behooves us to encourage young qualified Guyanese to remain and play their part in helping to develop our country. “In much the same manner,

In his statement, the Finance Minister charged that, between APNU and the Alliance For Change (AFC), there is a collective effort to rid Guyana of all its human and financial resources. “This has become even clearer with recent events that are unfolding before the public. “So far, we have seen the Joint Opposition’s concerted effort to chase away investors from Guyana. In less than six months, two major international investors, Muri Brasil Ventures and Blackstone Group which pulled out of the Amaila Project, were forced to walk away from doing business in Guyana

as a direct result of Opposition hostility. “As if chasing away investors is not enough to satisfy their lust for power, afforded by their one-seat majority, they now move to attack and, ultimately, chase our human resources: our young qualified professionals working in Government. “…APNU’s Joe Harmon is copying from his AFC friend’s playbook, by doing the same thing to Alexei Ramotar and the project he leads. “It is not by coincidence that Harmon and his party chose to publicly question the merit of Mr. Ramotar.

TOTALLY FED UP!

- Relevant authorities need to urgently clear main drainage canal in Campbellville MY name is John Ramotar and I have been a resident of Lot 1 William Street, Campbellville, for the past 30 years. During my tenure there I have always, at great personal expense, upkept, and still upkeep my neighbourhood. I weed and maintain the parapets, trenches and paint all culverts, road signs at John Street and Middleton Street, John Street & Delph Avenue, William Street and Middleton Street, William Street & Delph Avenue, Middleton Street & Duncan Street and Duncan Street & Delph Avenue, weed the parapet on Middleton Street from Duncan Street to John Street, all in Campbellville. I also constantly maintain the wooden foot/bicycle bridge (the western continuation of William Street) linking Middleton Street to Campbell Street. All of this I personally consider as my civic

duty to my community/country. My grave concern and of those residents who live in the Kitty/Campbellville, Bel Air Park area is the abominable condition of the main drainage canal between Middleton Street and Campbell Street which extends from Duncan Street northwards to the 40 ft Lamaha canal. This vitally important canal has not been cleared nor desilted since time immemorial by the authorities responsible for its maintenance, despite numerous pleadings by the scores of affected residents. Needless to say, this area is a haven for illegal garbage dumping. I/we do not have the capacity nor wherewithal to clear and maintain this overgrown, infested (snakes, mosquito, alligators) silted up canal and re-construction of the aforementioned bridge.

I am imploring the powers that be to urgently correct and administer the above-mentioned situation before a further and larger catastrophe occurs that will adversely affect countless residents and their properties and possessions.

Alleged baton sodomy of Harding…

GPHC categorically affirms prisoner was treated for hernia By Shirley Thomas DOCTORS at the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC) are not only livid, but have categorically denied any knowledge of reports appearing in certain sections of the media that a patient, Colwyn Harding had informed them that he had allegedly been sodomized by a police rank using a baton while he had been in custody at the Timehri Police Station on December 17, 2013. The doctors at the nations’ leading public health institution who attended to Harding from the first day of his hospitalization said the patient did not, at any time, inform them that he had been physically assaulted by the police in the manner alleged. They said the patient was presented at the hospital with hernia, for which he was treated. The doctors have further denied the following claims: (a) That Harding had been treated in a shoddy manner at the institution; and (b) that the hospital had run out of colostomy bags. In fact, the doctors said Harding had been using colostomy bags from the first day of his hospitalization. That apart, the doctors deemed it unprofessional to be discussing a patient’s condition without that patient’s prior approval; and discussing such a matter with the media compounds the unprofessionalism. Chief Executive Officer of GPHC, Mr. Michael Khan, along with Dr. Sheik Amir, Director of Medical & Professional Services; Dr. Navin Rambaran, Senior Registrar at GPHC; and Mr. Keith Alonzo, Senior Departmental Supervisor/Ward Manager in the unit where Harding is warded, addressed members of the media yesterday at a news conference held in the hospital’s multi-purpose room. Khan said the press conference was held to afford reporters the opportunity to question the GPHC on its care of the patient,

Colwyn Harding, and also to clear up some “misunderstandings and errors” that appeared in the media – both press and electronic. Giving a background to the patient’s condition, Khan said Harding was admitted to the GPHC on December 17 (at about 10 or 11:00 hrs), and was examined and taken into surgery on December 18. He was again taken to theatre for a second surgery on December 27, 2013. Reacting strongly to allegations that the GPHC had been unable to provide colostomy bags and needed drugs for Mr. Harding’s care, Khan affirmed: “I wish to state categorically that this is not true, and a perusal of the charts show that all the drugs he needed were given to him.” Khan admitted that on one occasion the necessary paraphernalia (bags, drugs, etc) had not been given to the nurse on duty, but he insisted that at all other times it was there and had been administered. He said Alonzo would be able to confirm the availability of colostomy bags. “And we must understand (that) even if they are not on the ward at the time, (the patients) get it, since they could be had from other wards.” Khan said there are two other patients besides Harding who use such bags, and they were never out of supplies; the bags were available at all times. “It is my view that Mr. Harding has not been treated in a shoddy manner, and the hospital and staff have done their duty,” Khan concluded. The hospital’s CEO also recalled having seen Harding and his mother at around 05:00 hrs yesterday. With the latter having been given special permission to visit Harding, they were outside of the ward sitting up, and Harding had appeared to be in good form. “I would personally be dismayed if there is an accusation of poor treatment (having been administered to Harding), since the doctors and nurses (are doing all they can), especially

We at the hospital have not refused… I would like to make it clear that we see our job as that of helping Mr. Harding to recover. To this end, we agreed that a private physician could meet with him in order to allay any fear, so there could be a private opinion at this time, which we understood is needed,” Khan expressed. He said two doctors (Dr. Sheik Amir and a doctor from Davis Memorial Hospital) were scheduled to see Mr. Harding at 10:30 hrs (yesterday morning), and that there would be private consultation between the private doctor and the patient. “I regret that the GPHC has been accused of neglect… As a public entity, we are open to criticisms, and this is why we have asked you to be here to clarify matters and correct errors of what is not based on facts,” Khan told the media. Asked at what stage it was recognised that the patient was suffering with hernia, and that he had not been sodomized, Khan said: “As is customary, we do seek permission of the patients before divulging information to the public. However, Harding’s case was well thrown out to the public long before we were asked to do this. Bearing that in mind, Mr. Harding was brought to our institution on December 13, seen at the out-pa-

Neighbours appear before magistrate for verbally abusing each other - one pleads guilty and is fined $10,000; the other on $5,000 bail Dawn Allicock, 47, a cook at Aubrey’s Tasty Snackette and a resident of Lot 365 West Ruimveldt, Georgetown, appeared yesterday before Georgetown Magistrate Ann Mc Lennan and pleaded guilty to verbally abusing 53-year-old retired teacher Carolyn Williams on Tuesday, January 14, at West Ruimveldt, Georgetown. But before the same magistrate, Carolyn Williams of Lot 115 West Ruimveldt, Georgetown pleaded not guilty to verbally abusing Dawn Allicock on the same day and at the same place. The prosecutor said the two women are neighbours but are not on speaking terms. He said Allicock placed some materials in the passageway that separates their yards, the women had an exchange of words, and Allicock threw a bucket of water at Williams, her adjacent back neighbour. Allicock was fined $10,000 with an alternative of 21 days’ imprisonment, and Williams was placed on $5,000 bail until the case is called again on February 7. (Geeta Rampersaud)

tient department and diagnosed with hernia, and was referred to the surgical clinic. “On the evening of the 17th at 10.35 p.m. (22:35 hrs), he was seen with increased pains and vomiting. His diagnosis revealed a strangulated hernia and required emergency surgery. This development came four days after the initial diagnosis was made. “So we all knew at the Georgetown Hospital that he was going to be operated on for a strangulated hernia.” And asked whether there is a possibility the patient’s condition could have been aggravated by the insertion of a baton into his anus, Dr. Amir replied, “It is difficult for me to say.” In response to another ques-

tion by a reporter about the likelihood of ‘battering’ aggravating the situation, the physician answered in the affirmative. Dr. Amir explained that any contraction of the abdominal wall would cause hernia to come down, and that strangulated hernia leads to the death of the bowel. “In effect, it is a weakness of the abdominal wall which causes a portion of the intestine to come down into the scrotal sack,” he explained. Pressed by reporters to perform another examination on the patient to determine the veracity of the claim that he had been sodomized with a baton, the physician responded: “The issue is (that) we are not doing internal examination just like that…”

He said examination was done based on what the patient was presented with, and that technically, four months would have had to elapse before another surgical intervention is undertaken. Albeit, by then healing would have taken place; leaving one with not much to work with. However, amidst a bombardment of questions, the physician was adamant that: “To this moment, up to this (yesterday) morning when we spoke to him (Harding), he hadn’t told us anything like that (about being sodomized).” Summing up on the patient’s condition, Dr. Amir said, “He’s had his surgery. He’s eating, and based on all that he’s gone through, he has lost weight.”

Minibus driver accused of verbally assaulting another sent on own recognisance - summons issued for absent VC MINIBUS driver Herman Persaud, of Lot 213 Grove Squatting Area, East Coast Demerara, appeared on Thursday before Georgetown Magistrate Ann Mc Lennan charged with verbally abusing minibus driver David Chester on Wednesday, January 8, at Charlotte Street, Georgetown, thereby occasioning a breach of the peace. The 42-year-old defendant pleaded not guilty to the charge, and Police Corporal Dinero Jones, prosecuting, told the court that the defendant and the VC had both gone to the NALICO/NAFICO Insurance Company because of an accident that occurred the previous day. After they left the insurance company, they started to abuse each other, and the virtual complainant (VC) injured Persaud with the bus door. Persaud said he told Chester he would compensate him for the accident in two weeks’ time, but a displeased Chester said he would slap Persaud. The defendant denied saying anything to Chester, and told the court that he reported the matter. Chester was summoned to appear in court, and the case was put down to February 7. (Geeta Rampersaud)

GUYANA CHRONICLE Saturday January 18, 2014

CARICOM in 2014: Challenges and Expectations 2013 was another challenging year for CARICOM Member States, with the fragile state of most of the economies preoccupying their attention, against the backdrop of the launch of a number of new initiatives to bolster the regional integration movement. At the top of the agenda in 2013 were initiatives to begin the long overdue reform process including overhauling the nerve centre of the regional integration movement, the Georgetown-based CARICOM Secretariat and the preparation of a five-year Strategic Plan. Consultations with Member States on the way forward were held but were rather low- keyed unlike the public consultations in the early 1990’s of the Independent West Indian headed by former Commonwealth Secretary General Sir Shridath Ramphal. The views of representatives from governments, the private sector and civil society formed the basis of core recommendations in the landmark ‘Time for Action’ report, the centre piece of which was the call for a CARICOM Commission. Nearly two decades later, there was a call from Trinidad and Tobago’s Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar for a CARICOM Economic Commission to address the pressing economic challenges facing Member States. Following the global economic and financial crisis in 2007, Heads of Government were slow to react but eventually in 2009 set up a CARICOM Task Force “to recommend policies, programmes and approaches to lessen the effects of SANDRA ANN BAPTISTE the global recession on CARICOM Member States.” Very little has been reported on the recommendations and which ones have been implemented. The region’s Central Bank Governors and Finance Ministers have since been mandated to develop a framework for financial risk assessment in the Region as well as a Regional Crisis Management Plan. The appointment of ‘Change Agents’ in Member States, who are senior officials and some diplomats, was also implemented in 2013. The jury is out on their effectiveness. Work has also begun on the Strategic Plan. CARICOM Secretary General Irwin La Rocque has said consultants working on the

In addition to the economic challenges confronting CARICOM Member States, the level of criminality, including brazen day time robberies and increasing violence, continues to cause concern, both within and outside the region. The Heads of Government have adopted a Regional Crime and Security Strategy. Assistance from the United States, through the Caribbean Basin Security Initiative (CBSI) is reportedly paying dividends. According to Colin Granderson, Assistant Secretary General, Foreign and Community Relations, the three-pronged approach, which seeks to substantially reduce illicit trafficking, advance public safety and security, and promote social justice, has made “noteworthy steps on the road to improving citizen safety and security in the

The Secretary General’s observations that “the governing arrangements for the CSME have become bureaucratic, unwieldy and lethargic” is cause for concern.

The CCJ found that Ms Myrie had been wrongfully denied entry into Barbados, subjected to a humiliating cavity search and unlawfully detained overnight in a cell and expelled from Barbados.” In making its ruling, the Court held that CARICOM nationals “are entitled to enter CARICOM Member States, without harassment or the imposition of impediment, and stay for up to six months.

Overseas-based Guyanese father and son killed on … came home for Essequibo Coast Christmas MUMTAZ Baksh,72, and his son Rafmat,44, both overseas-based Guyanse, were killed on the Land of Plenty Public Road on the Essequibo Coast at around 14:30hrs, yesterday, while walking to their home. According to reports, Mumtaz Baksh, a Canadian citizen, with his wife Zoorul, came home last December for the Christmas holidays and were still enjoying their vacation when tragedy struck. A daughter of the deceased, Zoori Baksh, said her father, mother, herself and other relatives went to the Anna Regina market to do shopping and were returning home in a car when her father requested to get off at Land of Plenty, a short distance from his home, to walk

a bit. His son Rafmat also decided to accompany him on the walk. A few minutes after the family arrived home in the car, they received the news that Mumtaz and Rafmat were killed in an accident. Reports said both men were hurled into the air on impact and suffered serious injuries. Zoorul, wife of Mumtaz, cried openly for her husband and son, and asked the question repeatedly, “How will I go back to Canada without my husband?”’ The driver of the car, who is said to be very young and inexperienced, is in police custody assisting with investigations. The car is also impounded. ( Rajendra Prabhulall in Essequibo)

Analyst Dept warns of fake margarine on the market THE Government Analyst Food and Drug Department is alerting the general public to the presence of counterfeit margarine being circulated as the genuine product of Golden Cream Margarine. The Department says a bucket (10kg) of the fake margarine is being circulated in Regions 5 (West Berbice) and 6 (East Berbice/ Corentyne), but the counterfeit product does not have the word MARGARINE on the label. Moreover, the colours of the label are deeper blue and yellow, the term ‘free of transfat’ is omitted, and

the International Standards Organization (ISO) 9001-2008 mark in green under the List of Ingredients is missing. The Analyst Department has said it is collaborating closely with Sterling Products Limited, the local manufacturer of the genuine product, and has since contacted members of the National Food Safety & Control Committee in Regions 5 and 6 to seize the counterfeit product and determine its source, in order to enable further action.

Alleged baby snatcher accused was hospitalised after remanded -she was allegedly beaten in the By Odella Patterson

Nineteen-year-old Candacy Adonis, who was accused of stealing four-month-old Miracle Price, was remanded to prison yesterday when she appeared before Magistrate Zamilla Alli at the Vigilance Magistrate’s Court. She was not required to plead to the indictable charge of child stealing, which stated that last Monday, at Buxton,

she unlawfully took possession of Miracle Price and carried the baby away, with intent to deprive Samantha Price, the baby’s mother, of her child. Attorney at Law Neil Bollers, representing Adonis, in his request for bail, claimed that his understanding of what had happened is different from information cited by the prosecution. He indicated that his client should be granted bail since

she was in police custody since Tuesday last, and was subject to emergency treatment as a result of her being beaten in the chest and face, allegedly by the police. Attorney Bollers further lamented that the incident stemmed from his client’s ironic humanitarian quest to assist the toddler whom she considered to be deprived of the relevant social and parental necessities, which the baby’s mom allegedly could not provide. He concluded that the defendant resides at Vigilance Playfield, East Coast Demerara, with both of her parents, who are pastors, and would not be a

flight risk if granted bail. However police Prosecutor John Singh objected to bail being granted because of the seriousness of the offence. He told the court that investigations revealed that the accused, without lawful authority, went to a Day Care at Buxton, used tricks on the authority there and took away the child. Prosecutor Singh further stressed that such behaviour should not be condoned. A visibly distraught and dazed Adonis was then remanded to prison by presiding Magistrate Zamilla Alli. She is scheduled to return to court on February 14, 2014.

Doubt over attendance of current Deputy Speaker THE National Assembly will meet next Thursday, January 23 and the election of a new Deputy Speaker could take place if the current one, Ms. Deborah Backer is unable to attend. Speaker of the House, Mr. Raphael Trotman is expected to be away when that sitting is scheduled and the Parliament Office has received no word as to whether Backer will be attending. The front-bencher of A Partnership for National Unity (APNU) has been absent from the House due to a still unconfirmed illness and had to access medical care outside of Guyana at least twice in the last month. Backer, in early January, was flown to Florida in the United States (U.S.) for tests and APNU Leader David Granger expressed hopes for her speedy recovery. Asked about her attendance at last Thursday’s sitting, Mr. Granger had said:“Mrs. Backer’s conDEPUTY SPEAKER dition is stable and we DEBORAH BACKER don’t have any reason to speculate on her attendance.” The Member of Parliament (MP) was first treated at a private hospital in Georgetown after falling ill. Backer had been slated to move the second reading of the Married Persons (Property) (Amendment) Bill 2013, last Thursday, which would have amended the Principal Act, the Married Persons (Property) Act.

First witness called at murder retrial

A MIXED jury at the murder retrial of Parsram Lalchand called Desmond was told Thursday that the accused was one of six men who killed Viranjan of Lusignan in 2008. Justice Franklyn Holder is presiding over the proceedings at which Defence Counsel Huckumchand heard from a Prosecution witness that, following a row over a bicycle, the victim was chased and beaten with wood and a cutlass. The injured man was taken to the Georgetown Hospital where he died and, as a consequence of Police investigations, the six persons, including the accused Lalchand, were charged with the capital offence. State Prosecutor Dhanika Singh is appearing opposite Huckumchand and she is expecting to call 10 witnesses. One of them, Detective Inspector Chabinauth Singh told the Court on Thursday that he was at Vigilance Police Station on June 30, 2008, from where he contacted the accused Lalchand. The witness said he told the latter it was alleged that, on July 27, 2008, he, along with others, at Anandale, East Coast Demerara, inflicted injuries on Viranjan who was hospitalised and died the following day. The Inspector said Raymond Gangadin told him that he took Viranjan and three others to Solex’s house to find out about a bicycle when Vishal and Solex chased the man and beat him with a piece of wood. The witness said he arrested the accused and asked him whether he wanted what he told him to be put in a statement and he said no. The case is continuing. **************************************

Other murder case starts with smaller trial

LATCHMAN Ramlall called ‘Rapesh’ and ‘Bucta Man’ appeared before Justice William Ramlal and a mixed jury on Wednesday at the start of his murder trial. He is indicted for the unlawful killing of Ramsance Singh on October 22, 2009. But the case began with a voir dire (trial within a trial), at the instance of State Prosecutor Natasha Backer, in the absence of the jury. At the end of the smaller trial, the judge will decide whether or not a challenged statement is admissible. Defence Counsel Keavon Bess is appearing for Ramlal in the continuing case.

Warring couple bonded to keep peace for 12 months

- husband to compensate wife $263,000 for destroying her property

By Geeta Rampersaud

BERNARD Da Silva, 30, of Lot 316 Middle Street, North Cummingsburg, Georgetown, an optometrist of Da Silva’s House of Optics, appeared before Georgetown Magistrate Ann McLennan on Thursday to answer to threatening behaviour and damage to property charges. He pleaded not guilty to the charge that, on Wednesday, January 15, at Middle Street, Georgetown, he behaved in a threatening manner towards Devika Singh Da Silva, but admitted committing the offence of unlawfully and maliciously damaging one Dell Laptop computer and four car tyres belonging to the virtual complainant (VC) and worth $263,000. Police Corporal Dinero Jones, prosecuting, told the court that the defendant and the VC are husband and wife, but have separated two months ago as a result of the defendant’s infidelity. They are the parents of a two-year-old daughter, and the defendant visits the home occasionally. On the day in question, the VC was out with her cousin and when she returned home and parked her car, Da Silva demanded that she exit the car. The VC refused his request because she was afraid of the knife he had in his hand. The defendant used the said knife to puncture the car tyres, then he threw her laptop into the gutter. The defendant indicated that he would like to compensate his wife for her loss. He said he did not intend to threaten her, but had become angry at the tone of her response after he had spoken to her. He said he had to go out of Georgetown on account of his job, and the VC had asked him to make arrangements for his parents to baby sit their daughter, but she did not turn up on time with the child. He related that, a year ago, the VC had chopped him, burnt his clothes and broken his car windshield. The VC admitted doing the things he listed except breaking the windshield, which she claimed his mother had done. The defendant was ordered to compensate the woman $263,000 for the damage done to her property, and was placed on $5,000 bail on the threatening behaviour charge. They were both bonded to keep the peace for 12 months, and the case was put off for February 7.

Cabinet gives ‘go ahead’ to $27M contract for reconstruction of GRA’s Linden office

– which was destroyed by arson

CABINET last Wednesday gave its no objection to a contract worth more than $27M for the reconstruction of a building destroyed by arson in Linden (Region 10) that housed the Guyana Revenue Authority (GRA) office. The contract was awarded in the Local Government Sector, Head of the Presidential Secretariat, Dr Roger Luncheon told reporters yesterday. Fires suspected to be acts of arson destroyed a number of buildings in the Linden community in August 2012. Other buildings razed by fire were the Linden Salvation Council building and the Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints Church at Silvertown, Wismar; together with buildings which housed the Linden Care Foundation Office, the Institute of Distance and Continuing Education, a canteen, and the Linden Electricity Company office. Another building behind the office complex was also burnt. Fires erupted in Christianburg, Wismar at about 02:30 hrs on Friday, August 10, completely destroying a building used by the Region 10 Farmers Association. Tenders from the Guyana Fire Service (GFS) were unable to reach the scene of the fire because of obstacles placed along the roadway by Opposition-aligned protestors challenging an increase in Linden power tariffs. (Telesha Ramnarine)

distinguished dignitaries who distributed prizes for the toppers in academics, sports and cultural events. The event started with the National Anthem at 17:30 hrs and by the time the programme ended, more than 25 colourful shows had been presented; shows to do with everyday life in diverse nations and the dressing styles of people in all walks of life were tastefully shown not only through dance but also their ever important pageant shows.

Texila University has celebrated 50 years of African American achievements at the university, honouring the vast accomplishments of African Americans over the past half-century. A statement from the university said: “Educating students to achieve excellence requires our consistent focus on recruiting and retaining a diverse student body, faculty and staff. ‘Welcoming to all and hostile to none’, it’s a phrase we aspire to live by on our campus.”

The university noted that creating a welcoming environment where people are open to learning from one another lays the foundation. “We grow through conversations and experiences with people who have different beliefs and come from other places, cultures, and backgrounds,” it said. The university also indicated that “by showing respect and finding common ground, we set the stage for the free exchange of ideas and the pursuit of knowledge and intellectual curiosity.”

GUIDE IS SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE

GUYANA CHRONICLE Saturday January 18, 2014

Aries March 21 - April 19

It’s a great day for romance, but that doesn’t necessarily mean romance in terms of love or sex. Romance exists in the natural world, so why not get out there and experience some of it? Take a long walk in a park or a leafy neighbourhood. If the weather doesn’t cooperate, hole yourself up in the kitchen and cook with some of your favourite fruits and vegetables. You can interact with natural elements in all sorts of ways -- any way you choose will be rewarding.

Taurus April 20 - May 20

Take the lead in a confusing situation today -- it will be exhilarating, it will be fun, and it will win you big points with important people. And don’t shy away from giving out orders or creating an agenda for the group. You know what you’re doing, so have confidence. Believe it or not, if you just say what you feel strongly enough, the others will agree with you! The tone of your voice will command their respect and earn their alliance -- which is a very powerful thing.

Gemini May 21 - June 21

Today is probably going to be an extremely busy day for you, but that doesn’t mean that you still won’t have fun! There is no rule that says you can’t add some laughter into a business situation -- and you don’t get extra points for taking everything so seriously. So lighten up your attitude and you might find that your work load lightens up too (or maybe it just feels that way). Toss out a few corny jokes in a meeting and see who laughs. Then align yourself with that person.

Cancer June 22 - July 22

You should try to keep your impulses in check today -- you must lead with your thinking skills, not your heart or your compassion. If someone really ticks you off, you can certainly get into a defensive position and be ready to fight back, just don’t be the first person to make any offensive moves. Bite your tongue and keep quiet! You can’t afford to be the instigator in any dramas right now, and plus, who needs all of the drama that comes along with it? Stay out of things.

Leo July 23 - August 22

Celebrity magazines seem like a guilt-free indulgence when you’re waiting in the checkout line, but why pay good money to catch a glimpse of someone else’s glamorous life? Start working harder at building up your own enviable position in the world. Maybe it’s not fame you want -- but whatever your goals, they aren’t going to be met any time soon unless you keep working on them. Cut back on distractions today and keep your energy focused on the tasks at hand.

Virgo August 23 - September 22

When everyone else is staring at a puzzle today and freaking out because they don’t have a clue how to solve it, you will be able to swoop in, take just one glance, and offer up some intriguing ideas. The difference between you and everyone else is that your creativity is much more flexible. You can approach any situation in a new way and see fresh ideas. Use all of this creativity to your advantage, and don’t be shy about it. People are impressed.

Libra September 23 - October 22

Home is your refuge from the rest of the world, so if there are problems in that area, taking care of those issues is your first priority! If something needs to be repaired, make all the phone calls and arrangements to get things on the mend. If the problems are more a matter of emotions or relationship troubles, start a conversation with the person who needs to hear what you think. Get a dialogue going and find out what you both need to get along.

Scorpio October 23 - November 21

Things may have slowed down a little bit in your life, but that doesn’t mean you are slowing down! Today, you’re still firing on all cylinders, ready to pounce on the next opportunity that walks through the door. You’re poised, you’re alert, and you are ready for action. But, if for some reason your heart’s not in the game, you’re allowed to enjoy this slower time and take it easy instead. You’re really in a position now where you can’t lose. Anything you do is the right thing.

Sagittarius November 22 - December 21

To get your message across clearly and quickly today, you need to slip that iron fist of yours into a velvet glove. Tact will be necessary, so be careful. If you use too much force and bluster, you run the risk of alienating some powerful people who you need on your side. A little bit of charm can move major mountains today, but screaming or yelling will definitely not. You have the ability to understand what motivates other people, so use it.

Capricorn December 22 - January 19

It’s not going to be an easy day if you’re feeling indecisive. You’ve been going back and forth about continuing a relationship. Today you need to stop the madness and come to a decision. Certain truths are starting to become too obvious to ignore, so stop ignoring them. Until you see things as they truly are, you can’t move forward and give your full attention to someone who is much more deserving of your time. You can’t be friends with everyone in life.

Aquarius January 20 - February 18

Making a compromise might not feel like the right thing to do, but it is definitely the wisest strategy for you right now. Not only will you help keep relations moving along in a positive direction, you will show other people that you know how to be flexible -and that you know how to see things from their perspective. Proving that you have this type of empathy will go a long way toward building stronger relationships. Think about long-term, not short-term gain.

Pisces February 19 - March 20

The best way to ensure a worry-free life is to make sure that your body is in good shape! So if you haven’t had a check up in a while, make an appointment today. Knowing that you have a clean bill of health will go a long way toward putting your mind at ease -- good health is something you have to appreciate and not take for granted. And start thinking about preventative measures to combat any illness, like vitamins and a gym membership.

Three women charged with embezzlement from Muneshwers

THREE employees of Muneshwers Limited appeared before Chief Magistrate Priya Sewnarine-Beharry, yesterday, facing separate charges of embezzlement. Subrina Rahamat, of Lot 2887 Well Road, North Ruimveldt, Georgetown, pleaded not guilty to three counts of the offence. Particulars of the accused stated, that being employed as a clerk or servant at the store, she embezzled the total of $223,972, taken into possession by her or in the name or account of her employer between January 13 and July 1, 2013, in Georgetown. Bibi Twahida Ali, another accused, also denied allegations that, between April 1 and 28, 2013, in Georgetown, she embezzled the total sum of $218,700 taken into possession by her or in the name or account of her employer. The third defendant, Bibi Shiroon Ali pleaded not guilty, too, to accusations that, between April 22 and October 4, 2013, at Georgetown, she embezzled the sum of $188,126 cash, taken into possession by her or in the name or account of her employer. The trio was represented by attorney-at-law Mr. Nigel Hughes, who requested that they be granted pre-trial liberty and pointed out that Rahamat has been employed with the Muneshwers for almost seven years and has an unblemished record. In relation to the two Alis, he said the sisters reside at Industry, East Coast Demerara and were placed on $100,000 station bail each, since October last and have been reporting to Police at Eve Leary. But Police Corporal Bharat Mangru, prosecuting, objected to the grant on the grounds that the investigations are ongoing and the defendants are expected to face more charges, as the siblings all together, allegedly, embezzled in excess of $50M. The prosecutor said the defendants were backdating receipts and it was observed, by the accountant, that some of the dates were on National Holidays. However, the objection was overruled and the women were allowed pre-trial freedom on individual $150,000 surety, until February 21.

Ex-NOC inmate remanded on armed robbery charge

JUNIOR Kenny (no address given) was remanded to prison by Chief Magistrate Priya Sewnarine-Beharry, yesterday, on a charge of robbery under arms. The 23-year-old defendant pleaded not guilty to the offence, which alleged that, on January 13, at North East La Penitence, in Georgetown, he, being armed with a cutlass, robbed Fiona Halley of a Samsung Galaxy phone, a tablet, one television set and DVD, together valued $216,000, property of Una Halley.

Police Corporal Bharat Mangru, successfully, objected to bail for the defendant, citing the seriousness and prevalence of the crime. He said there is likelihood that, if he secured the grant, the defendant may tamper with the witnesses since they are known to each other.

The prosecutor disclosed that the defendant served a sentence at the New Opportunity Corps (NOC) in Essequibo and Kenny told the Court he is presently unemployed but previously worked in the interior. The case will be called again on February 7.

Justice should be swi - says President at re-commissioning of Leonora Magistrate’s Court - urges magistrates to record 8-hr day’s work By Leroy Smith

PRESIDENT Donald Ramotar has called on magistrates to serve the nation by putting in eight hours of work each day they sit on the bench. He said the magistrates now have a comfortable environment to enable their hearing more cases per day. Delivering the feature address at the re-commissioning ceremony of the Leonora Magistrate’s Court in Region Three (Essequibo Islands/West Demerara) yesterday afternoon, President Ramotar reminded that justice should be swift and possible for everyone. He said the Government of Guyana has been putting in place conditions to make the judiciary more effective and comfortable for those who have to serve in it; and that while the court has its job to do, his personal view is that certain persons take certain matters to the courts in an effort to stall and slow up capital intensive projects, and sometimes have those projects halted altogether by litigation. The President said the Government of Guyana sees access to the courts of Guyana by all Guyanese as fundamental and lawful, and any matter taken

there should end with justice being served. President Ramotar said the re-commissioning also speaks to the move by Government to increase the magistracy; and just as material things are vital for persons, so too is the availability of judicial services. He pointed out that the increased presence of courts in various districts will help the ordinary man to save money and time, in that he would not have to travel for miles and across many villages to get access to a court. Taking a swipe at the rich and those who have the means to do business with the courts, the President said that while the court is important to everyone in society, it is the rich and those with the means who tend to have an advantage, as against the ordinary people. That fact, he said, forces some people not to want to turn up for court hearings. He pointed out that the state has been investing millions in the Legal Aid Service because many persons are disadvantaged by their economic position and their inability to pay lawyers or legal minds to represent their cause in a court of law. The importance of the court

President Ramotar points in the direction of Magistrate Clive Nurse in making a point yesterday while touring the newly re-commissioned facility and a proper and effective judicial system was also underscored against the backdrop of the development and investment in one’s country. The President told the gathering that investors feel safe to invest in a country or society only when they are assured that protection of their investments and interests can be accommodated in the laws of the land. President Ramotar said the Government of Guyana has done its part, and it’s now time

Foreign Affairs Minister Carolyn Rodrigues-Birkett paid a two-day visit to Guatemala on Wednesday and Thursday of this week, at the invitation of her counterpart, Minister of Foreign Affairs Luis Fernando Carrera Castro. She had discussions with Minister Carrera and also met with officials in the tourism, sugar and handicraft sectors.

Minister Rodrigues-Birkett met with the President of the Sugar Association of Guatemala Mr Fraterno Vila who expressed a keen interest in working with Guyana in the sugar sector. Himself a private miller and farmer, Mr. Vila has more than 35 years’ experience in sugar and owns one of the most efficient and productive companies in the sugar sector.

He guided Minister Rodrigues-Birkett on a tour of his operations. Guatemala is ranked as the fourth largest sugar exporter in the world and third in terms of efficiency and productivity. Guyana will continue to engage Guatemala in cooperation in this sector. Guatemala also boasts a developed handicraft industry which is closely linked to the tourism sector.

PSC acknowledges ‘merit’ in LEAD project THE Private Sector Commission (PSC) has acknowledged there is “merit” in the overall objectives of the controversial $300M USAID-funded Leadership and Democracy (LEAD) project. However, in a statement released on Thursday night by PSC Chair Ronald Webster, the body made it clear that the implementation must not go forward without the full agreement and sanction of the Government. To that end, the PSC called for consensus to be reached between the Government and the United States (U.S.) Embassy to allow for a mutually agreeable resolution in the interest of this country. The statement said: “The Commission, having reviewed the summary and proposed activities of the project document, is of the view that there is merit in the outline in the document to promote effective and responsive democratic institutions in Guyana and for motivating youth and women to be more engaged in the political and civic processes. “…it is the conclusion of

the Private Sector, therefore, that both the Government of Guyana and the Government of the USA have left the door open for further discussion and refinement of the Project Proposal.” The PSC’s statement on the issue follows meetings, over the last two weeks, with the Charge d’Affaires of the Embassy of the United States of America and with President Donald Ramotar. FULL BRIEFED According to the Commission’s statement, the PSC was fully briefed by the Head of State on the position of the Government of Guyana with regard to the project. It continued: “The PSC was advised that the Government of Guyana is yet to be convinced that the USAID Project, as proposed and adumbrated, would be in the best interest of Guyana and that the Gove*rnment of the USA has been so advised. “It is our understanding, from our meeting with H.E Donald Ramotar, that it is the position of the Government of Guyana that the USAID Project,

in its present form, is unacceptable to the Government and that the Government has exercised its judgment as a sovereign state that the Project is not to be implemented.”

RONALD WEBSTER President of the Georgetown Chamber of Commerce and Industry (GCCI), Mr. Clinton Urling, as well as other leading voices in the Private Sector have come out in support of the project, despite the Government’s rejection of it.

Coach Crandon needs ...

From Back Page of the team.” He was not fazed by the fact that Guyana have not won a Regional limited overs title in this form of the game since 2005, when

Chanderpaul led the team to victory in the inaugural WICB KFC Cup, following Sewnarine Chattergoon’s ton against Barbados at GCC. “It is something we have discussed during our meetings, but for me to put such pressure on the guys and remind them of this before the tournament start is uncalled for. As I said before, it is important that the guys know their role and execute it to the best of their ability and once that is done, success will be ours at the Queen’s Park Oval when the tournament culminates on February 15,” reiterated Crandon. The Guyanese will be involved in two more practice matches, this time under the lights of the Guyana National Stadium, Providence, sometime next week, before breaking camp and departing for Trinidad and Tobago on January 28. They go into action against the Irish three days later.

Djokovic, Serena stay hot as Melbourne cools By Nick Mulvenney MELBOURNE, Australia (Reuters) - Novak Djokovic bared his teeth to finish off Denis Istomin and extend the hottest winning streak in tennis to 27 matches in the third round of the Australian Open tennis yesterday as a cool front brought respite to Melbourne after a four-day heatwave. Serena Williams earlier made light of the last of the scorching temperatures, which again peaked around 42 degrees Celsius (110 degrees Fahrenheit), to blast her way into the fourth round for the loss of only a dozen games. China’s Li Na escaped defeat by a matter of centimetres in her third round match, while Spain’s David Ferrer continued carving his way through the men’s draw largely unnoticed. Ferrer’s compatriot Tommy

Robredo caused the biggest upset of the day by edging ninth seed Richard Gasquet 2-6, 7-5, 6-4, 7-6(6) in an evening thriller disrupted briefly by rain. Djokovic’s last defeat was against Rafael Nadal in the U.S Open final and 49 Istomin never looked like stopping his winning run at 26 matches under the closed roof of the Rod Laver Arena. Looking to become the first man in the professional era to win four consecutive Australian Opens, second seed Djokovic raced through the first two sets in 70 minutes before the Uzbek suddenly upped his aggression to break the Serbian as he was serving for the match. Visibly piqued, Djokovic was in no mood to risk the possibility of giving up his first set of the tournament and broke back immediately before overwhelming Istomin with the power of his shots to convert his second match point.

… Li survives scare, Robredo upsets Gasquet “I feel better on the court as the tournament is progressing,” said Djokovic, who will take on his Italian friend Fabio Fognini for a place in the quarter-finals. “Things got tense towards the end of the match. I didn’t want to drop the third set, obviously, so I was very focused to get the job done in straight sets.” Temperatures are forecast to plummet today, a huge relief to players and organisers alike after four days of rows over what constituted dangerous conditions. “I definitely look forward to playing in the cooler temperatures,” said Williams, whose 6-3, 6-3 win over Daniela Hantuchova was a record 61st at the Australian Open, taking her past local great Margaret Court’s 60. That Williams achieved her victory without firing on all cylinders - “I wasn’t fully on

today” - was another warning to her rivals that her 11-title 2013 season was by no means a final flourish at the end of her career. “For whatever reason, I feel like I just never was really able to reach my full potential, and I feel like recently I just have been able to do a little better,” she added. The next hurdle in the 32-year-old’s path to a sixth Australian Open title is Ana Ivanovic after she ended Sam Stosur’s hopes of winning her home grand slam for another year with a 6-7(8), 6-4, 6-2 victory on Rod Laver Arena. “I’ve been playing some good tennis all summer. It’s going to be a nice test to see where I’m at,” Ivanovic, who squandered a 6-3 lead in the first set tiebreak against Stosur, said of her meeting with the 17-time grand slam champion. Ferrer’s attritional style was made for hot conditions and he survived a second set wobble to wear down Frenchman Jeremy Chardy and reach the fourth round at a 15th consecutive

grand slam with a 6-2, 7-6 (7-5), 6-2 victory. Ranked and seeded third after Andy Murray missed the back end of last season, Ferrer next faces Florian Mayer with Tomas Berdych or Kevin Anderson waiting in the quarter-finals. Anderson came from two sets down for the second time in five days to reach the last 16, outlasting Edouard Roger-Vasselin 3-6 4-6 6-3, 7-6 (7-5), 7-5 in just under four hours. The tall South African trailed 0-4 in the fourth set tiebreak and 3-5 in the fifth and let out a huge roar when the Frenchman went long to hand him the win on Margaret Court Arena. “It was a lot of emotions at the end,” said Anderson. “Just a lot of excitement. A little bit of disbelief as well. “Sitting down there at 4-5 (in the (fifth), going out to return serve, knowing sort of it’s your one last shot.” Berdych, by contrast, eased into the fourth round without

having dropped a set all week courtesy of a 6-4, 6-2, 6-2 victory over Bosnian qualifier Damir Dzumhur. With Nadal, Roger Federer and Murray in the other half of the draw, Berdych knows he will rarely have a better chance to reach a first semi-final at Melbourne Park. “You know, it’s always about the draw,” said the Czech seventh seed. “Really, if I’m going to have it once pretty good, yes, I take it.” Li staged the most dramatic escape of the day when she faced a match point against Czech Lucie Safarova, who failed to convert it by the smallest of margins when her backhand down the line was called out, a decision confirmed by Hawk-Eye. “I think five centimetres saved my tournament,” said Li, who rallied to win the subsequent tiebreak and then seal a 1-6, 7-6 (7-2), 6-3 victory. “If she had hit it in, the whole team would be on the way to the airport.”

Champagne set for FIFA presidency bid By Mike Collett LONDON, England (Reuters) - FIFA president Sepp Blatter’s former right-hand man Jerome Champagne is set to launch a bid to succeed his ex-boss as the most powerful man in world football after inviting the world’s media to a news conference in London on Monday. Although the 55-year-old Frenchman refused to confirm that the event was to announce his bid, sources in Switzerland, where FIFA is based, left little doubt. Blatter, 78 in March, has hinted he might stand again in next year’s elections, while UEFA president Michel Platini has also been widely tipped to challenge, though the Frenchman has repeatedly refused to declare his position. Champagne, FIFA’s deputy Secretary General from 2002 until 2005, has been working as an international football consultant in troubled regions such as Kosovo, Palestine and Israel and Cyprus since leaving the organisation in 2010. He sent an email to the world’s media yesterday morning, inviting them to a news conference but would not elaborate on his plans. “I cannot stop the speculation because there has been speculation about me for the last two years since I published my document regarding the future of FIFA and the globalisation of the game,” Champagne told Reuters. “It is a free world and you cannot stop people having

an opinion but I do not wish to say more until I speak in London on Monday.” A Swiss source told Reuters: “There has been much speculation that Jerome could stand for the presidency and it would come as no surprise to anyone if this is what he says in London. “Everyone knows how important next year’s election will be for the future of football and being part of the campaign would give him the chance of expressing his views.” A FIFA spokesman said the governing body had no comment to make on the issue. In 2012 Champagne’s 20 000-word “What FIFA for the

21st century?” document outlined some far-sighted views, while building on FIFA’s traditional strengths. Central to his thinking are plans to expand the FIFA executive committee, bringing national FA’s into the seat of governance and making FIFA more open and transparent. ABSOLUTELY CRUCIAL In a previous interview with Reuters, Champagne said: “The election in 2015 is absolutely crucial for the future of the world game and will shape football for many years to come. “We have to embrace new ideas and develop others like technology, we have to embrace the changes in the modern world, both in the way football is governed and how we redress the imbalances that have crept into the game.

Perera, Mathews anchor Sri Lanka to big total

(REUTERS) - Sri Lanka captain Angelo Mathews and debutant Dilruwan Perera narrowly missed centuries but guided Sri Lanka to a solid first innings total on the second day of the third and final Test against Pakistan in Sharjah yesterday. Pakistan openers Khurram Manzoor (14) and Ahmed Shehzad (five) survived six overs before stumps to take their team to 19 for no loss, after Sri Lanka declared their first innings on

428 for nine wickets. Needing a draw to seal a series victory, the Sri Lankan batsmen appeared in no hurry to score runs on a slow turning pitch. Resuming on their overnight score of 220 for five, Sri Lanka lost Prasanna Jayawardene (35) early when he hooked Mohammad Talha straight to Junaid Khan at deep fine leg. Jayawardene added 73 runs with Mathews (91) for the sixth

wicket. Mathews, who scored 91 and 157 not out in the drawn first Test in Abu Dhabi, continued to frustrate Pakistan and added 112 runs with Perera (95) before he holed out to Ahmed Shehzad at deep cover off Junaid. The left-arm paceman trapped Rangana Herath leg-before with his next ball for his third wicket to raise Pakistan’s hopes of wrapping up the innings quickly.

But Perera continued to defy Pakistan, adding 72 for the ninth wicket with tail-ender Shaminda Eranga (25) and take the total past 400. He fell in similar fashion to Jayawardene, his hook shot off Talha finding Junaid in the deep. Pakistan managed to keep a lid on the scoring rate but were left to rue their bad luck during the day with a number of close appeals going against them.

Faulkner heroics power Australia to dramatic win (REUTERS) - James Faulkner’s sensational late assault powered Australia to a dramatic one-wicket victory over England in the second oneday international in Brisbane yesterday. Crushed 5-0 in the Ashes series and thumped in the first one-dayer in Melbourne, England sensed the chance of securing their first win over Australia on the tour after Eoin Morgan’s sparkling 106 powered them to a commanding 300 for eight. Australia made a feeble start to their chase but Shaun Marsh contributed 55 before Glenn Maxwell (54) and Faulkner (69 not out) provided the late surge that took the hosts past the victory target with three balls to spare. Needing 25 runs from the last two overs with number 11 batsman Clint McKay keeping him company, Faulkner blasted back-to-back sixes off Ben Stokes and stole a single off the last delivery of the penultimate over. Facing Tim Bresnan in the final over and still needing 12 runs, Faulkner hammered three fours in a row to trigger wild celebrations around the ground. Faulkner remained unbeaten after his 47-ball blitz, studded with three fours and five sixes. “He is the new finisher, the new Michael Bevan,” Australia captain Michael Clarke said in a televised interview. “He showed he is a wonderful player with loads of talent and he strikes the ball as cleanly as anybody ... he deserves all the credit in the world.” Australia lead the fivematch series 2-0 going into the next game in Sydney tomorrow. COMPETITIVE TOTAL After Alastair Cook opted to bat first, Morgan teamed up with Jos Buttler (49) to plunder 117 runs in 11.2 overs and help England post a competitive total against an Australian attack boosted by the return of Ashes hero Mitchell Johnson. Batting on one, Morgan was caught off Clarke at deep midwicket but the 27-year-old

eight overs to rekindle the hosts’ hopes before Faulkner made sure they materialised. “It took an unbelievable innings to beat us today,” Cook said. “Three hundred was defendable ... It’s an emotional dressing-room now, a tough place to be, but when we look at it tomorrow we’ll realise it was an astonishing innings that beat us.”

Kallicharran, Holding part of ACF Board NEW YORK, United States - The American Cricket Federation (ACF) has announced the creation of a seven-man honorary advisory board comprised of current and former international cricketers including Michael Holding and Ian Chappell. The move is a significant boost to ACF’s credibility on the world stage and furthers its attempts to challenge the USA Cricket Association’s status as the ICC-recognised national governing body in America. “I’ve been aware of many attempts to move cricket forward in the USA,” Chappell said in an ACF press release, “and I’m also aware that there has been a lot of bickering among the different administrations. With that in mind, I’m

Michael Holding

Alvin Kallicharran hopeful that the ACF can overcome these difficulties and get the game moving forward in the USA at an improved pace.” In addition to Holding and Chappell, other members of the panel include former West Indies batsman Alvin Kallicharran, former Aus-

tralian Test players Damien Martyn, Stuart MacGill and Nathan Bracken, and current Ireland wicketkeeper Niall O’Brien. In November, the ACF organised a cricket clinic, led by Holding and Kallicharran in Washington, D.C. Jamie Harrison, chief executive of ACF, had established relationships over the last several years with Martyn, MacGill and Brack-

en while serving in his role as president of the US Youth Cricket Association prior to joining ACF. Harrison and the USYCA hosted MacGill in New Jersey last April where the former Australian leg-spinner held a coaching camp for youth cricketers in the area. “We are delighted to have the support of these legendary cricketers as we move forward with the ACF mission to develop the game in the United States,” Harrison said in the release. “The breadth of knowledge and experience that these individuals bring to the table will be of great value to us as we chart the future of cricket in America, and we are thankful for their backing.

WDFA/Slingerz FC Bravo and Gayle agree to accept WICB West Side K.O Cup set retainer contracts for January 29 launch PORT-OF-SPAIN, Trinidad (CMC) - West Indies players Dwayne Bravo and Chris Gayle have decided to accept retainer contracts with the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) after years of refusing. The move by Gayle and Bravo represents a turnaround from their decision not to accept retainer contracts in 2010 while a third player who did not sign that same year, Kieron Pollard, is still not on the list of players retained. Gayle, West Indies captain at the time, refused to sign in 2010 when Ernest Hilaire was WICB’s CEO and was replaced by Darren Sammy later that year. The new WICB CEO Michael Muirhead says Gayle and Bravo’s willingness to enter into contracts with the WICB at this time speaks for itself. “I would like to believe it was a re-commitment to West Indies cricket from both of them (Dwayne Bravo and Chris Gayle). They were advised that they were being awarded contracts and they

Chris Gayle accepted,” said new WICB CEO Michael Muirhead in an interview with the Express. “So it augurs well for West Indies cricket and we really did not have to go into negotiations or anything, so it means that they are re-committed to West Indies cricket and the fact they are presenting themselves, making themselves available at the expense of the other leagues speaks for itself so I am happy about that.” Off-spinner Sunil Narine, who had once opted out of a contract, is now on the list

which also includes prolific Test batsman Shivnarine Chanderpaul. List of men’s players on Central Retainer Contracts 2013-2014 (with category) Dwayne Bravo (A), Shiv Chanderpaul (A), Chris Gayle (A), Sunil Narine (A), Darren Sammy (A), Marlon Samuels (A), Kemar Roach (B), Tino Best (C), Darren Bravo (C), Johnson Charles (C), Kirk Edwards (C), Kieran Powell (C), Denesh Ramdin (C), Ravi Rampaul (C), Shane Shillingford (C).

Top 8 teams to compete for over $1M in cash prize

EIGHT of the best teams from the West Demerara Football Association (WDFA) will be on show when the second Slingerz Football Club Stag West Side Mashramani Knock-out tournament kicks off on February 16. The event will officially be launched on Friday, January 31, where all participating teams will be named apart from tournament hosts and defending champions Slingerz FC. The recently crowned Banks Beer Cup Champions used last year’s competition as an initiation into Guyana’s football arena and this year’s competition will mark the club’s one-year anniversary. Just like last year, the winners will pocket $500 000, second-placers $300 000, third-placers $200 000 and fourth-placers $100 000. “Slingerz FC is more than pleased to present this tournament once again which is exclusive for teams only on the ‘West Side’,” the club’s general manager Collin Aaron said in a Press release. Slingerz FC defeated Den Amstel 3-0 to lift the inaugural trophy when the final was played at a packed Den Amstel Community Centre ground last year, with the win being the club’s (Slingerz) first title. “This tournament is very dear to the club because it is where Slingerz FC was born and it was actually the first official tournament we’ve played and won and we know it’s not going to be a walk in the park for us, since the other clubs over the last year have all strengthened (themselves) and are eager to overthrow us,” Aaron said. The proposed playing dates for the second edition of the Championship are February 16, 21, 24 and the Final on March 1. Venues and other logistics in relation to the competition will be made known at the launching.

GBBC and WBC/CABOFE express condolences on death of Sulaimán

LONG serving president of the World Boxing Council (WBC) Jose Sulaimán passed away last Thursday at the age of 82, following a battle with his heart condition, and president of the Guyana Boxing Board of Control (GBBC) and WBC/ Caribbean Boxing Federation Peter Abdool yesterday sent out his condolences message at the death of Sulaimán. Below are the press releases from the GBBC and WBC/ CABOFE: “It is with the deepest sadness that I advise of the passing of Jose Sulaimán, President of the World Boxing Council on Thursday in Los Angeles, where he had been hospitalized since October with a heart condition. He was 82. The Guyana Boxing Board of Control joins with the WBC Caribbean Boxing Federation in offering our deepest condolences to the Sulaimán family and the WBC Board of Governors, the WBC Federations and the WBC extended family. Jose Sulaimán was a towering figure in the world of boxing whose absolute dedication to the sport, concern for the well being of boxers and tremendous empathy with the poor and underprivileged forever changed the way in which the sport is conducted This one man’s tremendous positive impact on the sport of boxing is immeasurable. His inspirational leadership will be greatly missed in boxing circles around the

Peter Abdool world. On a personal note, he was a mentor and a friend and a man for whom I had great admiration and the highest possible regard. I believe that he shall always be the light of the WBC.” M e s s a g e f ro m W B C / CABOFE “Jose Sulaimán will be remembered as a man of integrity, honorability and pure heart. Inspired by his heroes, believed in unbreakable values and principles and lived a life to the fullest and he did it his way, as Frank Sinatra would sing on “My Way”. Always successful, a natural leader who would never give up, “there are no impossible tasks, some just take a bit longer”. That was the spirit of Don Jose. His life dedicated to the service of others, inspired by his parents education and example, led to a life full of satisfactions, he took tremendous joy by helping others, specially the underprivileged and the discriminated. Many call him the father of boxing; he certainly treated all

fighters as his sons and daughters, he suffered from their problems and worked every single day of his life to try to make boxing better and safer. Regardless if the boxer was an amateur or if he was Mike Tyson or Chavez, he would treat them the same and would relentlessly try to help each one at all times. The late Nelson Mandela inspired him to fight against discrimination, battled Apartheid and always struggled to prevent the abuse of power, which hurt the lesser gifted and he led many actions towards dignifying the sport of boxing, the female practice of boxing and the justice for trainers, managers, promoters and specially boxers. The late Pope John Paul II inspired him to be a better human being every day and to be humble, to serve and love, while Pope Francis brought faith back to him in these few months as God’s representative on earth and the Virgin of Guadalupe remained by his side at all times while Jesus Christ was his greatest guide and inspiration. Our dear father fought the last 12 rounds of his life, inspired by his hero Muhammad Ali, his corner formed by many doctors, nurses, care partners, therapist, lift team and staff at 7ICU at UCLA and with thousands cheering him from all over the world... The final bell rang; Jose Sulaiman 1931-2014, winner by unanimous decision!”

Bahamas to stage test run for IAAF World relays NASSAU, Bahamas (CMC)A test event has been planned for the Thomas A. Robinson Stadium in the Bahamas ahead of the IAAF World Relays to be staged here in May. High school athletes from around Bahamas will compete in a series of races at the venue May 9 and 10 as the country gears up to host the event two weeks later. Organisers say the test event will shadow the two-day relay meet that will attract the world’s top athletes.

“To have competitive relays which will allow us to test all our competition officials and the venue, will be good for us,” said Local Organising Committee Chairman, Keith Parker. “But for the high school athletes, having the chance to be in the stadium where some of the world’s greatest athletes will be competing will be an amazing experience.” All private and public schools have been invited to participate in the test event and the top 24 teams will be select-

ed for the 4x100m, 4x200m, 4x400m and the top 16 for the Sprint Medley. “The test events are going to be inspirational for the young athletes who participate,” said Parker. “To have our young athletes in the stadium, knowing what they can be aiming for, can only be a good thing.” More than 1 000 athletes and officials from 40 countries will be in Bahamas for the IAAF World Relays May 24 and 25.

Coach Crandon needs players to play their role

Same old Bourda as we know it when the rain falls. This was the sight when Chronicle Sport photographer Sonell Nelson visited the Georgetown Cricket Club ground last Thursday, one day before yesterday’s scheduled practice encounter between the National XI and Rest XI.

By Calvin Roberts “THE MOST Important thing for us is the players knowing their roles and executing that effectively, in which way we can guarantee success for our country in the Regional Supere50 tournament.” Those were the words of national cricket coach Esaun Crandon, who spoke with Chronicle Sport via telephone yesterday morning, after their third practice game against the Rest XI at the Georgetown Cricket Club

ground was called off, due to a soggy outfield. The coach was referring to the Christopher Barnwell-led 14-man squad, encamped from December 28, 2013 for this month end’s tournament to be held in Trinidad and Tobago and which will see Guyana compete against Ireland, Jamaica and Windward Islands in that order out of Zone A. Quizzed on his feelings, following the non-playing of the game yesterday morning, Cran-

don, who is a former national all-rounder, said “Practice in the middle is always important and essential, as it gives you a chance to further assess your players. “It also helps the players to work on their concentration and any flaws they may have in their game. But having said that, I must say we have no control over the weather so we will be looking at having indoor sessions at LBI and even use the concrete pitch at the Gandhi Youth Organisation

ground.” He added, “More fitness work can also be done at the Cliff Anderson Sports Hall under the guidance of the two trainers from the Guyana Defence Force and the coaching staff involving Julian Moore, chairman of selectors Rayon Griffith and myself.” When quizzed on the camaraderie in the team at the moment, despite concerns of burnout from their heavy cardiovascular training, the 32-year-old Crandon said the players are all

gelling well. “It is nice to see how they interact with each other. It’s as if the 14-man squad has not been named and everyone is contending for a place. They are gelling well and cheering each other on during the drills and that brings a smile to our faces as coaches of this unit. “They are a joy to work with and I must commend the Guyana Cricket Board, for bringing them together early, as we have seen also, increase in their fitness level and also

Esaun Crandon they are having lots of fun executing the drills assigned,” said Crandon. Asked to express his thoughts as it relates to the composition of the 14-man squad, he said, “Any team with Shiv Chanderpaul in it is a bonus. He has vast experiences that he has been sharing with the guys in the camp, and the younger players are definitely soaking up his wisdom. There is also Ramnaresh Sarwan who has been showing signs of his old self in terms of his batsmanship, especially in the nets, where he is always hungry to go the extra mile, bringing a smile to the face of the guys as well.” He added, “All in all, I think the squad is a good one mixed with youth and experience, as we have guys who have represented the West Indies at various levels and some young ones who are knocking on the door seeking West Indies selection. In the bowling we have two experienced spinners in Veerasammy Permaul and Devendra Bishoo, while our two fast bowlers selected, Ronsford Beaton and Paul Wintz, have been hitting the right areas in the nets and two practice matches to date, so yes, I am satisfied with the composition

Jose Sulaiman, WBC head for four decades, dies at 82 … Manager, promoter and administrator who oversaw the career of Julio César Chávez and many others JOSE Sulaiman, the longtime head of the World Boxing Council (WBC), died on Thursday. He was 82. Sulaiman’s son, Mauricio Sulaiman, said the man who led the Mexico-based council for four decades died at a hospital in Los Angeles. He had been at the University of California, Los Angeles Medical Center for months for a heart condition. The WBC confirmed his death, calling him the “father of boxing”. Sulaiman had been a member of boxing’s Hall of Fame since 2006. “He certainly treated all fighters as his sons and daughters, he suffered from their problems and worked every single day of his life to try to make boxing better and safer,” the council said in a statement. The son of a Syrian mother and a Lebanese father, Sulaiman was born in Ciudad Victoria, Mexico. He boxed as an

amateur but quickly shifted over to working as a manager and a referee. He trained and promoted many fighters, the best-known among them Julio César Chávez, Mexico’s most famous boxer, and then the fighter’s son, Julio César Chávez Jr. Chávez was among the first fighters to tweet a message, sending his condolences and calling Sulaiman his “second family”. “Rest in peace, my dear ‘licenciado’ Balin, like I used to call him with a lot of love,” read a message posted on Chávez’s account. Most recently, Sulaiman helped Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez, a young champion who last year unsuccessfully challenged Floyd Mayweather Jr in one of the richest fights ever. Sulaiman also managed to institute new rules and regulations regarding boxers’ safety and welfare. Among these changes was the reduction in the number of rounds from 15 to 12.
