With US$203M committed in funding for first three years…

CBSI lauded for its work at fourth meeting - currently under way in Guyana By Chriseana Ramrekha THE fourth meeting of the Caribbean Basin Security Initiative (CBSI) commission was convened yesterday, at the Guyana International Conference Centre (GICC), Liliendaal, Greater Georgetown. The aim was to review the progress made under the programme and make recommendations for its effective and sustained implementation. The CBSI brings together all members of the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) and The Dominican Republic to, jointly, collaborate on regional security with the United States (U.S.) as a partner, committing US$203M in funding for the first three years. This two-day gathering is to facilitate the preparatory work of the annual high level dialogue, monitoring and evaluating the implementation of the various initiatives identified for cooperation as well as to consider resource mobilisation strategies for sustained engagements on security matters. Delivering the feature address at the opening, Prime Minister Samuel Hinds, performing the duties of President, said if the region is to continue developing and enhance the well-being of its citizens, then it must, as a matter of necessity, take all steps to reduce crime and improve security in the respective countries. According to him, the Government of Guyana is convinced that the crime and security challenges in the Region demand that a holistic strategy should be employed to address them, which requires a collaborative effort, inclusive of the efforts of the international partners. He emphasised that they are steadfast in the view that the Region has to work together to solve its crime and security problems.

Acting President, Samuel Hinds and United States Ambassador to Guyana, Brent Hardt, pose for a photo with delegates of the Fourth meeting of the Caribbean Basin Security Initiative (CBSI) commission INCREASING PROPENSITY Hinds highlighted regional issues, such as the increasing propensity of young people to be involved in crime and deviant behaviour, the proliferation of firearms trafficking and smuggling and the tendency of persons to engage in the use of violence to resolve their differences. He noted that those issues represent some of the factors that justify the conceptualisation of the CBSI and, if they fail to take action, they will not be able to sustain and grow their economies and prosperity will suffer. The prime minister declared that the Government’s commitment to the success of the CBSI is without question and this was demonstrated by their immediate acceptance of the offer to host the fourth meeting of the commission this year, although the previous one was also hosted in Guyana in October 2011. “Guyana supports the roll out of the current CBSI projects in that the focus is holistic. The projects allow us to continue to build the capacities of our law

enforcement agencies and, at the same time, a significant portion of the funding under the initiative is being used to deal with issues relating to youth at risk,” he explained. Hinds said it is the view in Guyana that they must seek to discourage youths from being involved in unproductive pursuits, by guiding them towards a path where they can contribute to the productivity of our societies. “Concommitantly, we must build the capacities of our police and related agencies to reduce crime and violence in our communities,” he added. He observed that, in our world today, we have reached a stage in technological development where criminal networking has been taken to a level of sophistication that warrants appropriate law enforcement responses. Therefore, he said, it is apt that one of the main objectives of the CBSI is capacity building of institutions to effectively combat all forms of crime and the Government also welcomes the emphasis of training through the programmes under the initiative.

He outlined the four pillars on which the programmes of the CBSI are built as law enforcement information sharing, law enforcement cooperation and capacity building, crime prevention by focusing on youths at risk and maritime and aerial domain. Hinds said the Government is of the view that the programmes under the CBSI have been properly conceptualised and the outcomes of the implemented projects will benefit all involved. He said they are also appreciative of the efforts being spearheaded by the U.S. government, with assistance from the Government of Canada and other partnering countries and international organisations to provide support, in a tangible way, to countries of the Caribbean Region in addressing crime and security in our countries. BUILDING PARTNERSHIPS He posited that the highlight of this collaboration is the concept of building partnerships “Our economies are, in

some instances, thin and fragile, thus we must be in a position to create the right security related cognitions to encourage investment in our region,” he said. In his view, it is necessary to engage in the monitoring, evaluation and reviews of the various programmes in order to ensure that the objectives set are being met and, if they are not, how they may be adjusted. Consequently, he said, in each of the countries they should consider the creation of in-country working groups to monitor and provide counsel for the projects that are being undertaken under the CBSI. He pointed out that the Home Affairs Ministry has established working groups that mirror the four previously mentioned pillars of the CBSI. TREMENDOUS WAY Mr Hinds attested that the initiative has aided Guyana in a tremendous way by ensuring that the country implements and monitors the respective CBSI projects in an effective way and ensure that the partnership stays together. He expressed hope that the

deliberations during the twoday conference will assist in strengthening their resolve to work together and make sure that the Region becomes safer and wished them a successful meeting. Meanwhile, also delivering remarks, Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of National Security in St. Kitts and Nevis, Ms. Astona Browne agreed that the commission has made significant strides in advancing the implementation of mechanisms and projects that are designed to fulfil the stated aims outlined in their plan of action. “At the first meeting of the high level dialogue in Washington, we pledged to substantially reduce illicit trafficking in our Region, to advance public safety and to further promote social justice,” she recalled. On behalf of the CARICOM member States and the representatives from The Dominican Republic, she expressed pleasure in meeting with their principal partner, the U.S., which is making sure the successful implementation

of this cooperation agreement. Browne said they are focused on areas that are to inform the work of the commission, which continues to serve as the guiding principles, but there is yet much to be done. She stated that, even as they endeavour to draw on their limited resources and seek to confront the global security challenges, they are mindful that there are challenges, such

as firearms related crime, which have a strong nexus with drug trafficking and the perpetration of crime and violence by youth, especially in some communities. She added that, in the partnership, their crime prevention and detection initiatives must be informed by the priorities that are encapsulated in the strategic goals of the Region’s crime and security strategy, which continue to guide their

policy decisions. PHENOMENAL PROGRESS “None will question the phenomenal progress that could be made when we embrace what is being referred to as that new, more pragmatic and implementable approach to this security initiative,” she contended. She said CARICOM mem-

ber States have embraced that new paradigm and are focused on securing our waters, borders, community, people and nations as a whole. Browne emphasised that, with the committed involvement of all actors at the national, regional and international levels, they will continue to realise measured accomplishments, especially in building capacity in areas such as information

sharing and criminal investigation using forensics and related advanced technology. She said they will, therefore, continue to operate on the premise of mutual respect and shared responsibility in this new era of strategic engagement that has been institutionalised as part of a more pragmatic approach to an enhanced safety and security cooperation. “Notwithstanding our setbacks and our challenges, we will persist; we must persist with the strengthening of the regional framework, the management of the crime and security agenda in the community, working collaboratively with our colleagues from The Dominican Republic and the United States of America, as well as State and non-State actors for the common good,” she asserted. Browne informed that the meeting is geared towards consideration of the update on the outcome of the technical working groups and the projections for the sustained work of the agencies, as well as to finalise the agenda for their high level dialogue this year. She expressed her appreciation to the Government of Guyana for the warm hospitality which was extended to all the delegations and thanked the country for agreeing to host the forum. She also took the opportunity to record appreciation to the Government and people of the U.S. for the years of strengthened cooperation and partnership that they share on security matters. TRADITIONAL ALLIES Additionally, she recognised the commitment of other traditional allies, such as the Government of Canada, United Kingdom (UK), France and the European Union (EU). U.S. Ambassador to Guyana, Mr. Brent Hardt, in his remarks, indicated that the CBSI has emerged as a genuine partnership among 14 nations, each bearing responsibility for ensuring progress toward their collective goals and objectives. “From the onset, CBSI has been conceived and developed as a shared security partnership among the countries of CARICOM, The Dominican Republic, and the United States - a partnership that seeks to meet the various threats arising from increasing crime and violence throughout the region,” he acknowledged. The diplomat said that these threats, with both internal and external origins, have been fuelled by drug and other illicit trafficking that affect the safety of both Caribbean and U.S. citizens. He said it is vital that the CBSI succeed in achieving its goals, so there is no sub-region seen as hospitable for drug and other illicit trafficking flows. Hardt also underscored the role that the CBSI plays in providing a vehicle through which nations throughout the world

with interests in the Caribbean can coordinate their regional activities with the partner nations to foster more efficient multilateral efforts. He emphasised that, in this regard, they welcome the active engagement of their Canadian, British, European Union, UK, Dutch and other partners who are making valuable contributions to the region’s security. The ambassador informed that, in the past year, throughout the region, the CBSI partners convened three technical working groups on law enforcement and anti-corruption, crime prevention, and maritime domain awareness. “These technical working groups have facilitated a constructive dialogue among CBSI partner nations that has allowed us to coordinate local, national, and regional security and crime prevention activities, policies and priorities,” he reported. According to him, they have proven invaluable as a vehicle to inform their programming and funding under CBSI and it is their goal and hope that they served to refine and improve the individual and regional security efforts of all partners, as well as those other international donors with interest in the region. AN OPPORTUNITY Hardt remarked that the fourth meeting of the CBSI commission provides the partnership with an opportunity to celebrate their collective accomplishments to date, review the hard work presented to the commission as part of a joint implementation report prepared by CARICOM IMPACS, the U.S. and The Dominican Republic, among other things. “We look forward, over the next two days, to a vigorous exchange of ideas that can integrate the efforts of the working groups to chart a clear path forward for implementation of the programmes and achievement of the goals we have jointly developed,” he stated. He also said he hopes that, at the end of the forum, all participants will be able to return home with a renewed commitment to the CBSI partnership and renewed belief that they can, together, enhance the safety and security of their citizens through cooperation, creativity, and perseverance. Hardt also took the opportunity to offer heartfelt thanks to the Government of Guyana for playing host and for their generous hospitality, which is one of the hallmarks of Guyana and its people. He extended gratitude, as well, to their CARICOM colleagues, especially at the Implementation Agency for Crime and Security (IMPACS), for their support in the coordinating. Among those present at the opening were Army Chiefof-Staff Brigadier Mark Phillips, Police Commissioner Leroy Brumell and Fire Chief Marlon Gentle.

Shootout near prisons…

Police and bandits in chance encounter as car makes ‘wrong turn’ By Leroy Smith CLOSE to 30 persons, including toddlers and pensioners, were forced to take cover on George and Leopold Streets on Sunday evening as armed cops went in search of gunmen who had earlier escaped during a high speed chase. However one of the bandits was shot and was up to late last evening still under guard at the Georgetown Public Hospital. Investigators are working on the theory that the men were the same group who had been committing a series of robberies on the East Coast of Demerara but it was a mere chance encounter between them and the police on Sunday night. The Guyana Chronicle has learned that the men may have robbed three separate places on Saturday night and one on Sunday night. And they were apparently making their way to their safe haven when they encountered the police. But the prison unrest on Sunday night had drawn the police and army to the Werk-en Rust area as they monitored the situation at the prison. In the meantime, the bandits were ‘out the loop’ with what was occurring in that part of the city and the increased police and army presence in the particular ward. The men who were passing through spotted a police patrol and opened fire at the ranks who returned fire and the dramatic high speed chase went through several city streets. The men, it was reported, were of the opinion that the police

were looking for them after receiving word of the earlier robbery but in fact the police presence was concentrated on the Camp Street prison. In essence the bandits brought attention to themselves. The chase led the bandits down Benn Street with the police in hot pursuit. As the car, a dark coloured Toyota 212 approached George and Benn Streets the driver lost control while attempting to turn south into George Street and ended up slamming into a house on the corner. The impact brought down a concrete pole which was supporting a veranda. The three bandits, according to an occupant of the home, exited the car and while two made good their escape, one of them turned around and began firing in the direction of the police with what appeared to be a high-powered weapon. He said that at no time were the men in the house as the police thought, forcing the residents on the street. The man said that when the men exited the car, one used Leopold Street to escape while the other only used the compound in which the house is located to make his way into another yard. According to the young man at first he was in his section of the multi-apartment building when he heard gunshots and on looking out he saw a car coming in the direction of the house and he made a dash for cover. This newspaper was told that the police were a bit slow, affording the other two men the opportunity to escape. However while the police thought the two men were in the house, they were hiding in a

Three East Coast businesses robbed at weekend - armed robberies took place at Foulis, Strathspey and Better Hope

By Leroy Smith BUSINESSWOMAN Zamina Mangru was robbed at gunpoint in her shop last Saturday evening. The robbers were two of four men who descended on the community of Foulis, East Coast of Demerara, she told the Guyana Chronicle yesterday. The woman said she had been at the counter when the duo arrived and one approached and put a gun to her head while the other stood guard at the gate. The one close to her demanded that she hand over the drawer with the money and, when she complied, he put same on a pools table and ordered the customers who were there to empty their pockets and place the contents the same place from where he collected all. The men did not hurt anyone inside the shop but the owner said the other two accomplices were up the road attempting to rob a bread vendor. This publication was informed that the bandits, all unmasked, ventured into the community at approximately 20:06 hrs and their first stop was the businesswoman’s place. A relative of the bread vendor said he was about to enter his yard when he noticed a strange car in the vicinity and decided to take a second look at it. As he continued to walk into his premises, one of the two bandits who were approaching

from a different direction, ran behind the man with a gun. However, that gunman was unable to commit any robbery because a community policing group was passing at the time and discharged a round scaring him off. By that time, the car which had picked up the other two who robbed the businesswoman sped through the street and collected the others. She was able to point out the car to another community policing group who were on patrol but failed to chase after the perpetrators. It was that same patrol who, moments after the robbery, was alerted to it as the men exited the street but they, instead, reportedly shouted to the victim that she should go and make a report to the Police station. Zamina said she had been robbed of approximately $80,000 in the shop and, after she reported it, police arrived and conducted investigations. She said she would be able to identify the man who held her a gunpoint but not his companion. The bread vendor was not available to speak with this reporter but witnesses described the getaway car as a dark coloured Toyota 212. ANOTHER ROBBERY That same Saturday night, there was another robbery at Stratsphey, a few villages away from Foulis, which saw a business couple losing some

$300,000 to bandits who they said they could recognise. Both of the robbery victims described a fat man of African descent as being part of the group of unmasked bandits who attacked them. Meanwhile, on Sunday there was one more robbery on East Coast of Demerara. This time at a small Better Hope shop where another businesswoman was robbed and her customers gun butted. The car which was used by the bandits, to escape from that robbery, fitted the description of the one utilised at Foulis.

Guyana seeks closer South America collaboration on Mining

THE Government of Guyana, through the Ministry of Natural Resources and the Environment’s Guyana Geology and Mines Commission (GGMC) is committed to exploring ways to improve current mining practices with more efficient and environmentally safe technology. Minister of Natural Resources and the Environment, Mr Robert Persaud, made this commitment last week prior to the screening of a film entitled ‘Amazon Gold’ which highlighted the impact of mercury in gold mining. The event was organised by the Ministry of Natural Resources and the Environment and the World Wildlife Fund (WWF). Mr. Patrick Williams, Country Manager of WWF, Ms. Sarah DuPont of Amazon Gold and Dr. Luis Fernandez, Specialist on the impact of Mercury in Gold Mining also participated. In this regard, Minister Persaud made calls for greater collaboration between South American and Amazon countries to share experiences and technologies towards suitable and environmentally safe mining practices. He pointed out that the government has an aggressive stakeholder approach programme in keeping with the new international convention to control mercury emissions which was signed in Japan - the Minamata Convention on Mercury. The agreement is an international response to the reality that mercury pollution is a global problem that no country can address unilaterally.

Minister Persaud alluded to the fact that the Government of Guyana recognises the environmental and human health risks of mercury use and pollution and supports the implementation of a global legally binding instrument on mercury that will prohibit its production, export and use through a planned approach. Guyana’s Mining Sector is developing rapidly in Guyana and is poised to develop even further with hydrocarbon exploration, resumption of manganese mining, increased production of bauxite and gold and the opening of new exploration for new minerals and elements such as uranium and elements of rare earth. Additionally, the Government of Guyana through the Ministries of Education and Natural Resources and the Environment has reviewed the evidence on the factors for growth, and as such, recognises strongly the role of improved education in technical training in the mining sector. This will be done through the Guyana Mining School and Training Centre Inc. (GMSTCI) through a grant agreement between the World Wildlife Fund, Inc. (WWF) and the Guyana Geology and Mines Commission (GGMC) to develop a curriculum of the mining school. As such, the ministry is encouraging many miners to use Mercury Free Technology through the Guyana Gold and Diamond Miners Association (GGDMA). Already a series of demonstrations were conducted using mercury free technology which has shown that a higher

One of the more recognised gold miners, Correia Mining has converted their entire operation to mercury free in hope that the mining industry will begin to realise the added benefits. Minister Persaud also expressed his appreciation to collaborate with WWF to organise a showing of ‘Amazon Gold’ for Guyana. Although Amazon Gold focuses primarily on the gold mining industry in Peru, similar comparisons could be drawn with Guyana’s mining industry. Similar to that of the Guyanese mining industry, small scale and artisanal mining is quite prevalent in Peru. Over the years the Peruvian govern-

Police Commander promises tougher action against noise nuisance By Michael Khan NOISE nuisance is becoming a chronic issue and the Guyana Police Force (GPF) needs to take tougher action against offenders, Rural Constabulary Sergeant Tomar Dhwaj told the ‘B’ Division, Berbice Commander, Assistant Commissioner Brian Joseph. Speaking at the launch of the Christmas Policing Programme in the boardroom of the Region 6 (East Berbice/Corentyne) Regional Democratic Council (RDC), Dhwaj, who has been part of the Rural Constabulary for 37 years, complained that the advent of amplifiers and ‘boom boxes’ in vehicles has changed the culture of driving. He now sees the loud music as nothing more than a hype which annoys law abiding citizens. “After hours (at nights) when the Traffic Police get back into the station, we hear men on motorcycles racing and revving their engines. Also along the Palmyra (Corentyne) Road where I live, cars pass at all hours with loud music and disturb our peace. “I am appealing to the administration of ‘B’ Division to address this issue,” he pleaded. Tomar Dhwaj, In response, the Divisional Commander gave the assurance that Rural Sergeant the police are working to address the issue, since there have been similar complaints previously. “I know, for a fact, that noise nuisance is a concern and I am working to address the issue in ‘B’ Division. We have a zero tolerance approach towards this matter and we have confiscated music boxes and placed a number of persons before the court,” he stated. About concerns raised to the prevalence of loud music emanating from parked vehicles outside popular ‘hang out’ spots, along Main Street, New Amsterdam, Joseph promised to look into those, as well.

ment has struggled to curb the high deforestation and degradation rates that were attributed to mining. Amazon Gold gives us the opportunity to learn from other South American countries about devastating impacts of mining on the environment.

Guyana can learn and adopt some of the more practical initiatives that are successfully implemented. Although Guyana’s mining industry is governed by the Mining Act & Regulations which is constantly being amended, newly

drafted occupational health and safety regulations, dredge tracking regulations, etc., there is much more that can be done to ensure Guyana’s mining industry remains a sustainable and viable one in the future.

Canadian researcher finds Guyana made significant MDG3 strides By Tash Van Doimen

GUYANA has made significant strides towards the Millennium Development Goal 3 (MDG3), Canadian graduate student Michelle Bobala reported last Friday. Making a presentation on her findings to the Red Thread Organisation, she said gains were on the MDG3 indicators even prior to the 2000 implementation of the framework. Bobala, who recently graduated from York University in Toronto, Canada completed her Masters Degree in International Development Studies and the topic she chose for her final research paper was ‘The relevance of MDG3 in Georgetown, Guyana’.

She said, after three months of intense researching, inclusive of document analysis and semi-formal interviews with grassroots women, personnel from government bodies, international and non-governmental organisations (NGOs), it was revealed that Guyana had already, significantly, progressed on the MDG3 indicators. MDG3 seeks to promote gender equality and empower women and that objective is measured through three main ways, the proportion of women and girls in primary education, the ratio of women formally employed in the non-agricultural sector and the number of them represented in the national parliaments. Bobala said: “While there

is a variety of gender focused programmes, there is nothing tailored on MDG3. There is no work being done related to MDG3 even for women advocacy organisations, since they are often focused on their mandates.”

tertiary levels. Similar results are shown for the other two indices, as the 2011 MDG Report ‘Women in Non-Agricultural employment’

ALREADY PROGRESSED Nevertheless, as indicated by the data collected, Guyana had already progressed on MDG3 prior to it being implemented. She said the search revealed that, during the mid1990s, girls and women had been equally represented at primary and secondary levels and, by 2006, they outnumbered males at secondary and

Michelle Bobala illustrated that there was an increase in the share of women in wage employment in the non-agricultural sectors from 29 percent to 33 percent from the year 1991 to 2006. And further, a 31.3 percent women representation in Guyana’s National Assembly. With the aim to determine the relevance of the MDG3 framework and, additionally, whether both Guyanese and international institutions were meeting the mark and focusing

on the real issues of Guyanese women, Bobala concluded that the system is useless in Guyana. According to her: “The framework is irrelevant for Guyanese both at an institutional level and for grassroots women. These goals, which were established, particularly to assist the poverty stricken, are actually not helping grassroots women. “… they need to be more focused on issues actually affecting women.” She said these issues, as indicated from the data collected, are the exacerbated burden of poverty on women; inadequacies in education and training; the elimination of violence against women and inadequate mechanisms for the advancement of women. As to her reasons for conducting her research in Guyana, Bobala explained that there were several. CONTACT INFORMATION Firstly, after asking her professor if she knew of any women advocacy organisiation that ‘works beyond service provision advocating, substantially, to empower women’, the latter spoke of Red Thread and

provided her with the contact information of its coordinator, Karen De Souza. Secondly, Bobala wanted to ascertain the relevance of the framework in a socio-political context, from a person in an Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) country perspective. She came here, originally, in March 2011, spent six months volunteering in the Red Thread from March to August that year, to identify the area she wanted to research. After deciding on the subject area, Bobala returned in May 2012 and spent through August gathering the data required to complete her research paper. Upon concluding her assignment, she declared that, since Guyana had already achieved the indicators for MDG3 before the framework was implemented, the goals may be too low or stagnating any room for progress. Bobala suggested that Guyana should have been working towards the goals identified by the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) and the United Nations Development Fund for Women (UNIFEM) instead.

Minister of Housing and Water Irfaan Ali listens to a query from a houselot applicant during the One Stop Shop exercise

A TOTAL of 1,029 houselots were distributed last Friday at the Central Housing and Planning Authority’s (CH&PA’s) penultimate One Stop Shop exercise for 2013 at the Guyana National Stadium for Plantation Covent Garden, East Bank Demerara. Speaking to the media at the event, Minister of Housing and Water, Irfaan Ali, noted the investment made by the CH&PA on the Covent Garden project is just one of several such developments on the East Bank Demerara for 2013. The CH&PA has invested a huge sum on developing the area that will benefit 4,219 persons. Works include construction of 15.8 kilometres of crushed-stonesurfaced roads, the installation of an 18 km pure water distribution network and the construction of 64 drainage structures. The project is 50 percent completed, with the outstanding work being the installation

Mother of six remanded on cocaine trafficking charge By Geeta Rampersaud SHELLON Khanai, 32, of Lot 5 Industry Railway Embankment, East Coast Demerara, was remanded to prison yesterday on a drug trafficking charge. She pleaded not guilty to the offence, particulars of which said that on Saturday, November 16, at Cheddi Jagan International Airport (CJIA), Timehri, she had in her possession 2.938 kilogrammes of cocaine for the purpose of trafficking. Customs Anti-Narcotics Unit (CANU) Prosecutor Oswald Massiah told the Court, on that day, the defendant was an outgoing passenger on BW 504 flight to the United States (U.S.) when she had a suitcase which was checked by an on duty CANU officer. The suitcase was put on a scanner and a strange object was observed and, when it was taken off for inspection, Khanai accepted ownership and the officer identified himself to her and requested a further search. The Prosecutor said Khanai admitted to owning a small business at her home address and was taken to the CANU headquarters,

where the illegal substance was extracted and weighed. The Prosecutor said, before the defendant was taken from Timehri, she begged the same officer for a chance, stating that she has six children of whom to take care. But, when ranks went to her home, later, they found no evidence supporting business. During the investigation she informed the rank that she was granted a 10 years visa four months ago and, after she told someone (no name stated) that she had acquired it, the person requested her to take the suitcase to U.S. and she decided to do so after keeping it for two months. According to Khanai, her husband died leaving her with six children a few years ago. Magistrate Faith Mc Gusty told the defendant that she cannot grant bail unless a special reason is given and the unrepresented defendant said she is a single parent and the only breadwinner for her children between the ages of 13 and five years. The magistrate said it is unfortunate that no special reason was advanced and the woman was refused bail until November 27.

Before Magistrate Faith McGusty, the 23-year-old defendant was charged indictably with having, between February and September 2012, being employed as a clerk at the Georgetown Magistrate’s Court, stole the sum of $3,045,000, property of the State of Guyana. Police Corporal Seon Blackman, prosecuting, said the accused was a clerk (cashier) at the Georgetown Magistrate’s Court in the Maintenance Section. He added that her job entailed writing up maintenance/affiliations cards and cash composition book and collecting from persons paying money during the period February 7 to September 11, 2012. The Prosecutor said Peters stole the $3,045,000 and he successfully objected to bail for the accused, stating that she may pose a flight risk, since she had been on the run for over a year and was apprehended by the Police in a sting operation. The case will be called, again, on November 26.

Hydrocarbon traces being mapped to measure potential commercial viability

T

HE development of the oil and petroleum sec tor is continuing with a mapping exercise currently under way in the MahaicaMahaicony area. The area is being surveyed to ascertain the potential of commercially viable quantities of oil and gas by local contracting company, S. NABI and Sons which has a lease for 2,300 square kilometres. Conducting the testing and mapping, using specialised equipment is Hydrocarbon Imaging Services Inc., President of the Texas-based firm, Robert Clark, explained that his firm has successfully conducted operations in Peru, Suriname, Trinidad and Tobago and several African countries. “We have a good idea of comparisons, and as I come to Guyana, there is a lot of anecdotal information. There’s very sketchy information on historical wells, but even with that we could still get an idea of the boundaries and the identifying

signatures of hydrocarbons, oil and gas,” Clark said. The head of the company declared that tests indicate that there are hydrocarbons present but “it all comes down to commercial quantities”. He explained that testing is done by looking at the natural gamma ray signatures using Geiger counters, since hydrocarbon deposits are inherently radioactive and testing for gases such as methane, carbon dioxide, and several others in the soil. Grids are then mapped out to ascertain certain trends, according to Clark. “This is more of a channel sand normally, and what we try to do is find the sweet spot and then bring in the other sciences, whether it’s seismic or otherwise, to see its structure….We have to integrate historical geology, historical well control, we do not operate in a vacuum. We have a science that is mathematically based, that is nuclear based, that is predictable and repeatable. “The signs thus far are

very encouraging and there is also the presence of gas (methane) as well, he added. The area being surveyed is known for oil seeps and soil outcrop also known as reefs, clear indicators of hydrocarbons being present in the subsurface of the soil. For Engineer and Managing Director of the NABI Oil and Gas Inc, Antony Syms, the aim is to ascertain whether they can drill to reach any deposits cost effectively and whether it is commercially viable to do so. “The cost of production must be less than the selling price, or we don’t have a business,” Syms said. Minister of Natural Resources and the Environment, Robert Persaud, who was on hand to witness the testing being conducted, said that there are three companies which are currently conducting similar exercises in other areas; one is currently offshore and the other is in the south of Guyana. “These are very early days and while

it’s good to temper expectations, there are many, many more stages that the company or other exploration companies will have to undertake before getting to that point; but certainly if there is that potential, it is important that, as a nation, we examine and explore that potential, because it’s good for our country’s development and certainly it shows that we are committed, at the end of the day, to developing our hydrocarbon sector”. He noted that while there are challenges on and offshore, in terms of hydrocarbon exploration, government remains

committed to giving much support. “I’ve mandated the GGMC, the Petroleum Division, that whatever support we need to give different companies in this field, that we give them. We don’t expect that the companies will hold and watch on and wait for something to happen, they have to make it happen,” Minister Persaud stated. NABI Oil and Gas Inc. secured their prospecting licence in June of 2012, and Minister Persaud said government was happy to see some progress in terms of their work. The company has already

invested over $70M on the project and anticipates that it may be able to drill for further testing and extraction sometime in 2014. According to company representatives, the NABI Company is the first locally owned firm to engage in this type of activity. Government remains optimistic that petroleum and gas will be found in commercial quantities and though this will take some time, it will further move the nation along the development path.

THE Ministry of Natural Resources and the Environment, with support from the Mexican Government, hosted a visiting zoo expert from Mexico from November 11 to 15, 2013. Facilitated by the Mexican Embassy in Guyana, and coordinated by the ministry’s Protected Areas Commission (PAC), the visit is the first step in a planned, long-term technical cooperation between the two countries. The expert, Dr. Enrique Mendoza-Salazar, is the Deputy Director of the Mexico City Chapultepec Zoo, the largest zoo in Mexico. During his visit, Dr. Mendoza provided advice and training in the areas of animal nutrition, health and treatment regimes, education and awareness, enclosure design and cage enhancement. Through this partnership, it is expected that personnel at the zoo in Georgetown will be equipped with new skills and techniques to better manage the facility and care for its animals. By strengthening local capacity, this technical support will bolster the recently developed zoo master plan, which for the first time outlines a long-term vision for the modernisation of the Guyana Zoo. The Ministry of Natural Resources and the Environment’s PAC is continuously working with corporate and private sponsors to support the overhaul of a number of enclosures. The effort to improve the zoo is part of the larger Three Parks Initiative launched by Minister Persaud, which also aims to rehabilitate the National Park and Botanical Gardens. All parties interested in supporting this initiative are invited to contact the Protected Areas Commission Offices at the National Park, Thomas Lands.

Unrest at Georgetown Prisons…

Police maintain presence as things return to normal UP to early yesterday morning the Guyana Fire Service and ranks from the Guyana Police and prison officers were still on high alert as inmates of the Camp Street prison remained uneasy following the presence of a prison officer they are calling “controversial”. On Sunday afternoon the inmates of the section where hard core prisoners are kept were busy disturbing the peace and they set fire to a mattress in protest at the return of a prison officer who, they said, is responsible for the death of an inmate. Contrary to updates on several social sites, there has been no prison break at the facility. By late yesterday it seemed that the situation was back to normal.

Alleged hit and run driver surrenders DELNEY Gonsalves, 40, of Dartmouth Village surrendered to police at Anna Regina, Essequibo Coast early Monday morning. That was after he had, allegedly, been involved in an accident at Riverstown Public Road, also on the Essequibo Coast, on the night of November 6, which left 71-year-old pensioner Naraine Singh dead. It is reported that Gonsalves was the driver who hit the pensioner, fled the scene and successfully evaded the police for some two weeks. Ranks visited his home on November 7 but only found the car and impounded it. The driver is expected to be charged and will make his first Court appearance before Magistrate Sunil Scarce, shortly.

SHANE Washington, 15, was last evening rushed to the Georgetown Public Hospital in critical condition, suffering from head injuries. This publication was informed that the teenager was on his roller-skates blades and was heading to meet some friends when he and a pedal cyclist were hit down by a minibus. Washington was rushed to the hospital in the back of a police patrol vehicle, accompanied by a friend. It was reported that the teen would usually use his roller-skates around the city, with his friends, and without the protection of a helmet. Last night doctors informed the boy’s relatives that a CT scan had to be done to determine the extent of the head injuries the teen sustained. (Leroy Smith )

Aries March 21 - April 19

Communication isn’t a problem -- you’re able to make your points eloquently and succinctly. That’s why saying what’s on your mind is a lot easier than usual these days. It helps to plan out what you’re going to say well in advance, but you manage to be quite convincing when you have to speak in front of a group of people on the spur of the moment. If you’re usually a shy person, this is the ultimate time to stand up and say what’s been in your heart for a long, long time.

Taurus April 20 - May 20

You’re having a very difficult time making up your mind about what you want to do next. You may find yourself taking long, aimless walks, or spending long periods of time standing still while contemplating your next move. The best thing you can do is get off to one side and let everyone else who’s in a rush go by you. Luckily, you should be much more decisive tomorrow -- maybe you should save your most important tasks for then. After all, you don’t want to waste your own time or anyone else’s.

Gemini May 21 - June 21

Don’t pay so much attention to numbers and time constraints. You have so much energy today, petty little things like finishing what you start shouldn’t even be a concern! Besides, plenty of people are around who would love to lend you a helping hand. Call on your friends and family to pick up the slack. You can’t help but wonder why you have the ability to start about a million projects but are having a hard time finishing even one.

Cancer June 22 - July 22

You may have thought you spoke quite clearly and eloquently, but your words got twisted somehow and more than likely ended up causing a simple misunderstanding. Don’t ignore it for too long, or it could really turn into a problem. You may feel that apologies aren’t necessary for something you didn’t mean to do, but you really should clear things up with the offended party. Swallow your pride and say those two magic words if need be -- ‘I’m sorry’ goes a long way at times like this.

Leo July 23 - August 22

Enjoy being a member of the audience rather than a featured player just this once. Your friends have the best stories! You’re mesmerized by the descriptive adjectives and surprising descriptions they use as well as the sheer magnitude of the adventures they’ve had. You may have plenty of exciting tales to tell as well, but you’ll be lucky to get a word in edgewise while in the company of this crowd. Besides -- you’re so often the life of the party, it really is nice to let someone else soak up the spotlight for a change, isn’t it?

Virgo August 23 - September 22

Right now you’re definitely capable of making some of your very own discoveries -common sense is something you truly excel at today. While everyone else has gotten into a habit of grasping for straws and adopting strange theories, you’re able to boil down the problem and get to the heart of the matter in mere minutes. With this much brainpower working to your advantage, you should be able to do some really great things.

Libra September 23 - October 22

Everything is better if you have someone to share it all with. Call up your best friend, your partner, spouse, neighbour or relative and ask them to come out and explore the world with you. It doesn’t even really matter who you’re with -- even seeing life through a stranger’s eyes puts a whole new twist on things. One thing to keep in mind, however -- opinions cannot be right or wrong. If you insist on arguing with your companion, you’ll get less out of the experience.

Scorpio October 23 - November 21

Even if you think you have everything under control, it always pays to go over it one more time. That goes double if you’re dealing with anything legal or financial -- it’s absolutely imperative that you get a professional opinion or have some way of making sure that everything is on the up-and-up. You may encounter some very unusual minor details, and if you don’t ask questions before signing the paperwork, you could lose a lot of money, waste a lot of time -- or both. It’s so much better to be safe than sorry.

Sagittarius November 22 - December 21

Your attitude can work wonders right now -- especially if it’s positive. Believe in yourself and your abilities. Right now, there’s absolutely nothing standing in your way. If you can convince yourself that you’re about to experience -- and deserve to experience -- great things, you will actually have the power to make them happen. Believe it, and it can happen. Need it, and it can be yours.

Capricorn December 22 - January 19

Something in the air is drawing all the flighty people to your corner of the world. Just because someone says they’re going to do something, don’t take them on their word. Of course, ‘tis the season and all that -- forgive them and move on. It helps to remember that there’s no reason to take any of this personally. The best thing you can do is go about your own business and keep your own word, but take everyone else’s promise with a pinch of salt right now.

Aquarius January 20 - February 18

You are one charismatic person, and it just goes to follow you’re going to attract some very interesting people to you today. A chance connection with a stranger or casual acquaintance starts a spark that might be difficult to put out. Then again, if you’re free of a significant other at the moment, maybe there’s no reason to try to put a damper on things! Flirting is easy when you know for sure the other person is interested; however, it’s up to you to interpret correctly if the other person wants to take things to the next level or not.

Pisces February 19 - March 20

If you have to do anything that requires a great deal of concentration, you might want to put your daydreams on hold. The line between what’s real and what’s not is blurred once again, but that’s really not anything new to you, is it? If you have a lot of free time on your hands, however, feel free to dream to your heart’s content. Something constructive might come out of your wishful thinking, but even if it doesn’t, it’s still time well spent.

Drunk driver injures three Stella Maris students …brother described him as ‘a mad man’

SHEMAR Lesperance, Kesi Carter, and Ebitoyo Pilgrim, all 11-year-old boys of the Stella Maris Primary School, and who all reside on the upper East Coast of Demerara, were rushed to the Georgetown Public Hospital last evening after a drunk driver got into his vehicle and lost control, hitting the three Grade Six students in the process. The errant driver was identified as Eric Lewis, a general contractor. The Guyana Chronicle was informed that the man had been at Seeta’s Bar in Station Street, Kitty, just before the accident. Eyewitnesses claim that the man left the bar, got into his vehicle, and the car careened from one side of the road to the other, hitting several vehicles, knocking the three boys down and ending up in a drain with one of the boys under the car. The children were walking on the other side of the road with their teacher. The driver of the car was taken into custody at the Kitty Police Station. At the Georgetown Public Hospital, the teacher was very upset, as she observed that the three boys were all very promising students. Last evening, the brother of the driver showed up at the hospital to comfort the relatives of the three boys. The man told the Chronicle that he was surprised at his brother’s action and described him as “a mad man” He said the situation is very hurtful and he hoped that the police would use the full force of the law in dealing with his brother.

Crown Cabs driver, dispatcher killed in Mandela Avenue crash By Leroy Smith

EVEN as the owner of Crown Cabs Taxi Service and some of his employees are denying that Sunday night’s accident victim 19-year-old Tiana Holder was not one of their employees, her mother Sharon Holder says that her daughter has been working with the company for three weeks now. The teen along with Per-

cival Chester, a taxi driver at Crown Cabs Taxi Service, perished on Sunday in an accident on Mandela Avenue. According to reports, Chester lost control of the car he was driving with Holder as a passenger and crashed. The mother of the dead woman said yesterday morning that her daughter, who resided at lot 18 Bent Street, left for church on Sunday along with

her brother and grandmother. The woman said that when her daughter was leaving for church she informed her that her boss, the taxi service owner, had informed all staff that they must be present at the wake for Vanessa Williams,

Dead: Percival Chester the Crown Cabs Taxi Service dispatcher who was killed by berserk businessman, Deryck Kanhai in a shooting rampage one week ago. The woman said that she cautioned her daughter about going to the wake, saying it was not compulsory for her to be present at any wake. She said that her daughter then informed her that she also has to collect her salary for the week ending November 16th. However as the young lady left for church she did not walk with her other footwear which she would usually wear to work and this made her mother feel that she would return home before going to the wake. However after church was over, only her bother and grandmother showed up at home. Mrs. Holder said that she enquired about Tiana and was told by her little brother that she went straight to work after church. On Sunday evening Mrs. Holder received a call informing her that her daughter was involved in an accident on Mandela Avenue. She said that she rushed down to the hospital and did not see her daughter. She then visited the accident scene

Dead: Tiana Holder, with her brother and grandmother where she saw the body of her daughter. The woman recalled that her daughter was bleeding through her nose, mouth, ears and the back of her head was bashed in while her neck seemed to have been broken. She said that her first reaction was to hold her daughter and call on her to wake up but she got no response. She said that she then fixed her lifeless daughter’s clothing. Meanwhile, in trying to understand why some persons at the taxi service were denying that the young lady worked there this publication asked her mother to tell us what she knew. Mrs. Holder said that her

daughter applied at the taxi service for a job as a secretary and was informed that she needed to have a pass in mathematics but the young lady did not get good grades in that subject at CXC. However the taxi service owner, according to Tiana’s mother, told the 19-year-old that if they did not find someone suitable for the job she would be given the position. He also told her there was need for a dispatcher and she would be given that job if she wanted it while they await someone qualified for the secretary’s position. When Guyana Chronicle visited the home of the taxi driver at 16 D’Urban Street, Lodge, no one was there to speak with the media and his wife had already gone out. Chester who is the father of a one-year-old child was also a model who paraded on several catwalks. The police are continuing their investigations into the fatal accident.

Commercial influence creating worrying trend in…

HUMAN ORGANS TRADE Kidneys reportedly have a price tag of between $1.5M and $8M, depending on the circumstances By Vanessa Narine GUYANA’S developing kidney transplant programme is witnessing an increasing commercial influence. Over the years, since its introduction, there have been strong reasons to believe that individuals were involved in the buying and selling of the organs. However, professionals in the field contend that, today, the evidence of organs trading is clear. Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Vickram Oditt, of the nephrology specialist facility, Doobay Medical Centre, told the Guyana Chronicle that kidneys have a price tag of between $1.5M and $8M, depending on the circumstances.

He emphasised that the consequences of organ trading have far-reaching implications. According to him, patients’ lives, in addition to the integrity of Guyana’s kidney transplant programme, are at risk. He acknowledged that patients who make the decision to purchase kidneys may be contemplating the cost of continued renal treatment, as well as the chances of finding a donor match. DANGEROUS RISKS But Oditt pointed out that the bigger picture is the dangerous risks that are being taken, as the evidence of highly negative outcomes are undeniable.

He informed that, in the last few months, two of the centre’s patients bought kidneys and had their transplants done at other facilities, but died in a matter of weeks, one within three weeks and the other in six. “There is a lot of risk in buying kidneys. The actual transplant operation is only one part. There is much pre and post-operation work that has to be done,” Oditt cautioned. He said two male patients, one in his 30s and the other in his early 40s, were robust individuals, save for complications with their kidneys, when they succumbed because the organs they purchased failed. “These are only two cases, there are others,” Oditt revealed.

Clement Rohee still ill - missed flight and official engagement

HOME Affairs Minister Clement Rohee is said to be still ill and absent from his desk since November 7, 2013. Guyana Chronicle has learned that the minister was scheduled to travel to New York early Monday morning but failed to turn up for the scheduled flight. Minister Rohee is also General Secretary of the People’s Progressive Party (PPP), and according to sources close to the party, he wanted to travel to the United States to have further medical tests done. While it was formally announced that Minister Rohee would have been present at the opening of the 4th Meeting of the Caribbean Basin Security Initiative Commission yesterday, the minister did not make an appearance. The event at the Guyana International Conference Centre, Liliendaal, was instead addressed by Prime Minister Samuel Hinds, who also announced that Mr. Rohee was still ill. As late as September 12, 2013, the 63-year-old Rohee had expressed confidence in being fit to perform his duties as minis- HOME AFFAIRS MINISTER CLEMENT ROHEE ter and de facto leader of the governing party.

He said the worrying trend is creating waves among families and, also, the price tags being fetched by the organ trade are clouding the judgement of potential donors. “The family members are

now saying that they want money for the transplant,” Mr Oditt observed. NO LAWS Guyana, currently, has no laws against organs trade, but the practice is illegal in many countries. Still, a senior official of the Health Ministry confirmed that a piece of legislation from Canada is “sitting” in waiting to be used as the basis from which Guyana can have its own to prevent the trading. Oditt disclosed that a “prominent attorney” in Guyana was involved in drafting an agreement of sale for the patient who purchased a kidney for $8M.

“The will has to be there from all ends to stop this,” he observed, though maintaining the fact that the growing trend is undeniable, making the call for action more urgent. G u y a n a ’s k i d n e y p r o gramme was first announced in May 2008 by former Health Minister, Dr. Leslie Ramsammy. Since then, several transplants have been performed, in addition to hundreds of dialysis operations that have been done at the Doobay Medical Centre, the 5-G Dialysis Service, the Balwant Singh Hospital and the Georgetown Public Hospital, all in the city; and the Anamayah Memorial Hospital at Albion in Berbice. This newspaper will continue to follow developments in this field.

Russia seeks answers over plane’s ‘vertical’ crash

Moscow (AFP) - A RUSSIAN plane that crashed killing all 50 on board plunged nosefirst into the ground, officials said Monday, as investigators focused on a fault with the 23-year old plane or pilot error as the likely cause for the disaster. The Tatarstan Airlines’ Boeing 737-500 crashed on landing at the airport in the Volga city of Kazan after a flight from

Moscow’s Domodedovo airport Sunday night, killing all 44 passengers and six crew on board, the emergencies ministry said. “The main versions of what happened are an error in piloting and technical factors, including a technical failure,” the head of the transport Investigative Committee for the Volga region, Alexander Poltinin, was quoted as saying by Russian news agencies. He confirmed that the crash occurred while the aircraft was making a second attempt at landing and said the investigation would have to consider why the pilot had not managed to land the first time in reasonable weather conditions. Transport Minister Maxim

Sokolov, citing what he said was so far unpublished video footage of the disaster, revealed that the plane plunged nose first into the grounds of the airport and then appeared to have exploded. “The plane simply fell. It went vertically into the ground. After the plane hit the ground there was an explosion,” Sokolov was quoted as saying by the state RIA Novosti news agency in Kazan. A source quoted by the Interfax news agency said that it was clear the plane had lost speed on its second approach although it was not immediately apparent why. The disaster claimed the lives of Irek Minnikhanov, the son of the leader of the Tatarstan region, Rustam Minnikhanov, and the head of Russia’s FSB security service in Tatarstan, Alexander Antonov. Also among the dead was a Briton, Donna Carolina Bull, 53, and a Ukrainian national, Margarita Oshurkova, the emergencies ministry said. The rest of the victims are all believed to be Russian citizens. Despite his personal tragedy, Minnikhanov was at the scene of the disaster and overseeing rescue operations, Russia’s Deputy Prime Minister Arkady Dvorkovich told a cabinet meeting. For unexplained reasons, the plane landed around 500 feet away from the main runway at Kazan airport and then exploded, with debris strewn over hundreds of metres, Russian state television said.

Syria rebel chieftain killed; Assad forces bomb besieged town

(Reuters) - PRESIDENT Bashar al-Assad’s forces fired rocket and artillery barrages on a besieged mountain town near Lebanon on Monday in a push to capture the strategic area following advances against rebels in Damascus and in the north of Syria. In a separate setback for the fighters, a prominent rebel leader died overnight in a Turkish hospital of wounds suffered in an air raid on Aleppo. Abdelqader Saleh, head of the Qatar-backed Sunni Islamist al-Tawhid Brigades, had been working on regrouping fighters in Aleppo before he was killed. Heavy bombardments hit Qara, 80 km (50 miles) north of Damascus in the Qalamoun mountains, as rebels hid in the rocky terrain, refugees and opposition activists said. Located near the highway linking the capital to Aleppo, Syria’s biggest city, the region has been used by rebels to cross from Lebanon. The Danish Refugee Council, which operates on the Lebanese frontier, said there were preliminary estimates that 10,000 to 12,000 Syrians had fled the bombardment since Friday. Hundreds of them lined up for shelter in bleak winter rain in the Lebanese border town of Arsal on Monday. Imposing control over the area would help link Damascus with the Mediterranean coast,

New security Legal action against UK, France and Netherlands unit from December 1 (Trinidad Guardian) THE Government’s Rapid Response crime-fighting initiative will be implemented from December 1, National Security Minister Gary Griffith announced yesterday. Speaking after a community meeting with residents of Andalucia, Maraval, Griffith said the unit was one of several initiatives announced by Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar in August, after a joint meeting with Opposition Leader Dr Keith Rowley to address the escalating crime problem following a spate of killings in East Port-of-Spain. Griffith said the unit will provide a 24-hour mobile presence in three to four areas during the pilot project, including the western peninsula (Diego Martin, Carenage), San Fernando and possibly Siparia. He said 51 vehicles will patrol designated areas on a 24-hour basis. The vehicles will be equipped with GPS systems and will be monitored through the ministry’s operation centre to ensure they are where they are supposed to be at any given time. When fully operational, the Rapid Response unit will operate in 15 regions in T&T. The minister said the unit will act as a visible deterrent to criminals and will provide a sense of comfort to citizens. Griffith said the ministry is considering the revamping of community policing. He said his meetings with various residents’ groups evolved out of the plan to revamp community policing. He has already met with residents of St Ann’s and Hololo to ascertain the threats in those areas and to “assist the communities in building a relationship with the police.” He said he has been speaking with acting Police Commissioner Stephen Williams about the matter but could not provide a definite timeline for the revamping to begin. Griffith said the National Training Police Academy is important because not every officer could be a community police officer. Some officers, he explained, have to be trained specifically in community policing so they would be able to build a relationships with residents in communities, which would lead to residents passing on information about crime. He said purpose of the community police would be informational, while the Rapid Response would be operational. Griffith said in revamping community policing, more meetings will be held between residents and the police. Asked if the revamping of community policing meant more foot patrols in designated areas, Griffith said the Rapid Response

unit and aerial patrols using the four national security helicopters will be used to fight crime. Griffith said he would insist that the helicopters be used for low aerial surveillance. The minister said he hoped to visit as many communities as possible since crafting any crime plan should involve dialogue with residents. At yesterday’s meeting with the Andalucia residents, Griffith was accompanied by senior officers from the Maraval Police Station. “I have been going to the ground, speaking to residents and sharing their concerns,” he said. Griffith said he offered advice to the residents who are often seen as “soft targets” by criminals.

(Trinidad Guardian) VINCENTIAN Prime Minister Ralph Gonsalves has told Britain’s Observer newspaper he instructed law firm Leigh Day to bring a case against the UK, France and the Netherlands for reparations for slavery. With the backing of the 15 Caricom heads of state, Gonsalves believes the case could be heard in the international court of justice at the Hague. Historian Prof Bridget Brereton told the T&T Guardian there is a “very compelling moral and legal case for Britain and other countries to pay reparations for slavery and the slave trade,” but noted: “The difficulty will be conceptualising how reparations should be made.” In St Vincent, the reparations committee is seeking the establishment of a development fund as opposed to payments paid to the individual descendents of victims.

Jamaica Constabulary Force says anti-crime strategy working THE police are reporting success in their strategy aimed at ridding the streets of illegal guns and ammunition. Data compiled by the Jamaica Constabulary Force indicated that between January 1 and November 9, some 623 firearms were recovered. This is 112 more than the figure for 2012. And the police say between January 1 and November 9, they recovered 7,340 rounds of ammunition compared with 4,912 rounds seized in the corresponding period last year. The majority of firearms recovered so far this year are said to be pistols, revolvers and homemade guns. Meanwhile, the data also shows that the police arrested 24,267 persons in the period of just over 10 months. An additional 13,743 persons were reported to have been arrested with evidence. The statistics also show that 508 motor vehicles were reported stolen between January and November 9. This is 90 fewer than the number recorded in the corresponding period last year.

“As far as I understand, no one is calling for a single transfer of money,” said Brereton, “they firstly want Britain to make a full apology for the crimes and then a fund for education.” Asked how T&T’s experience of slavery compared to the rest of the Caribbean, Brereton said T&T should be considered separately. Whereas Trinidad had a relatively short experience of plantation slavery—50 years, from 1780 to 1830—Tobago’s was considerably longer, as the island was first established as a Dutch slave colony in the 1600s and recolonised in 1763 by the British. Whereas the last census in Trinidad showed 38 per cent of the population self-identifying as Afro-Trinidadian, Tobago’s African ancestry is closer to 100 per cent. Brereton put the case for reparations in human terms as well as fiscal. “In addition to bringing people to the Caribbean against their will, they were

enslaved as lifelong slaves and hereditary slaves—the children of an enslaved mother inherited her condition, and of course there were no wages,” she said. Speaking about the lasting effect, she referred to the “huge legacy of damaging race myths and stereotypes, ideas about colour, shade and blackness that continue to this day. Massive social disadvantages that descendants of slave had to face in the 19th and 20th century.” On the economies of the Caribbean she said: “Slavery promoted skewed economic development. The focus on the export of plantation crops created an imbalanced economy.” Khafra Kambon of the Emancipation Support Committee told the T&T Guardian the process of setting up a reparations committee in T&T had begun but was not finished. Since the meeting of Caricom heads of state in June, at which it was agreed

that all 15 countries would appoint their own reparation committees, there have been two stakeholder meetings involving preliminary discus-

Businessman shoots, kills patron ( Tr i n i d a d G u a r d i a n ) A 23-YEAR-OLD man was shot and killed yesterday by a businessman who confronted him and two others about their behaviour at his business place. Police reports are that Chris Sealey, of Sangre Grande, was shot at Hammerhead Bar, located on Manzanilla-Mayaro Road, Manzanilla. They said around 3.55 a.m., the owner of the bar

discovered three men in his business place pouring liquid on his gaming machines and office. He confronted them with a licensed 12-gauge Remington shotgun. One of the three men drew a firearm and the owner in turn fired two shots. One man fell to the ground and the two others escaped in a vehicle. Manzanilla police were

called in and the injured man was taken to Sangre Grande hospital, where he was pronounced dead on arrival. Police later confronted one of the two suspects, a 31-yearold resident of Sangre Grande, in a roadblock along Manzanilla-Mayaro Road. PC Khan is continuing investigations.

Looking back, frame by frame, at death of my beloved husband Dr Walter Kyte

EDITORIAL

Are relations between Guyana Police Force and citizens deteriorating?

ARE relations between the Guyana Police Force (GPF) and the citizens of Georgetown further deteriorating? Relations between the GPF and citizens have historically not been great, but judging by how citizens responded during last Wednesday’s shootout in Middle Street, one can argue that relations may be further deteriorating. It was widely reported in the media that large sections of citizens actually cheered when the now deceased gunman, Mr. Deryck Kanhai opened fire on the police during the stand-off. So, what can we conclude is the reason for this animosity between the police and citizens? It appears much of this animosity can be traced to a general perception amongst people that many of the police shootings which resulted in the deaths of what police described as ‘criminals’ were not justified. To substantiate this view, when the stand-off with the gunman was continuing, many people linked the shooting in Middle Street to earlier police shootings by making statements like “they could kill three men in South Road, but they can’t kill one man?” During the K&VC hotel incident referred to on social media, the police confronted three men, two of which were shot dead at the scene, while a third died later in hospital. Shortly after this incident the police issued a statement in which they stated that they received information of a robbery that was to take place at the K&VC Hotel. They subsequently staked out the location and these three young men exited. Upon being confronted by the police, they fired on the cops, who fired back, resulting in them being shot. However there were a number of people who claimed to have been witnesses to the incident, who proceeded to give a totally different account of what happened, claiming that it was in fact an execution. The initially surviving suspect, also denied that any ‘shootout’ took place and stated that it was an execution. He too later succumbed to his injuries. The Police Commissioner concurred with his ranks, stating that the shooting was justified case closed. But the case was not closed for citizens who wrote letters to newspapers and on social media voicing what they felt was an injustice inflicted upon citizens, as well as a possible cover-up by police top brass. Last week Crime Chief Seelall Persaud linked the men killed during this incident to a gang called the “Hot Skull Gang” which is allegedly based in Albouystown. However, relatives of the alleged gang members, including those that were killed, have refuted this linkage. This was not the only shooting incident where the public felt the shooting was unjustified. In 2012, a young man Dameon Belgrave was shot by police in the vicinity of the White Castle Fish Shop. It turned out he was not even the target. This particular shooting led to huge demonstrations, where the public expressed their anger towards the police. It appears as if the K&VC shooting just added to that perceived sense of injustice that people may be already feeling. So what are the implications of this animosity between the police and large sections of the public in terms of crime fighting? It is obvious that crime fighting will suffer, because the police

IT has been almost three months since that horrific accident on August 25, 2013 on the Soesdyke/Linden Highway that took the lives of three people, including my beloved husband, Dr. Walter Kyte. My reason for penning this article is to bring about awareness of certain policies that need to be amended and enforced within the Guyana Police Force. The police need to enforce the highway speed limit. They should be vigilant like any other decent law enforcement agency and patrol the highway for law breakers; imposing heavy fines on those reckless drivers who blatantly and deliberately show disregard for human lives. At the time of the accident (on August 25), there was no highway patrol and when the police ranks arrived at the scene, they were of little use. The Guyana Police Force is so desensitized to the everyday occurrence of accidents and vehicular homicide that they seem unfazed. Their heads turn the opposite way without a thread of concern or compassion. All persons responsible for vehicular homicides should be tried and pay the price, whatever the consequences are, if any in Guyana. These accidents occur too often that little interest is shown or given to the incident and people see it as just another common occurrence. As my unconscious husband was trapped in that bus, inhaling dirty water, the “brave and honourable” Guyanese Police got to the scene, stood there and chose NOT to assist! Not because they couldn’t! God forbid. They were more concerned about their shining shoes, their well ironed pants with a seam so sharp it can cut you should you get too close. They stood there like spectators trying to avoid getting their uniform and shoes messed up in the dirty water that was claiming the lives of people in that minibus! They were supposed to be the ones who took the oath ‘To serve and Protect’, rather, they stood and watched mothers, daughters, fathers and brothers and sons struggle to survive. One such hero came in the form of a 5ft 1 inch, approximately 110 pound angel by the name of Jeanette Campbell who rescued my 5ft 3 inch, 185 pound husband. She gave me the chance to speak to him one last time before he departed from this sinful earth. The police should have given this woman a citation for her bravery and persistence in saving Dr. Kyte’s life. Did they even acknowledge her, I guess not…but Dr. Kyte’s family would. We, the family feel it is the honourable thing to do. The police department did not show any compassion in reaching out to me in extending their condolences. No one tried to contact me to show any compassion to say in just a few words “I am sorry for your loss”. This gentleman went down to Linden to give back to society and ended up losing his life. I felt he gave so much and received so little at the time when he needed it most. I would be remiss if I didn’t extent my gratitude to the driver of the car and Ms. Kathleen Rodney who stopped by the road side and transported my husband to the Linden hospital. Had they not done that, he would have been like a dog, hit by a car lying by the road side awaiting his last breath. Thank you Ms. Rodney for the compassion you have shown. You and Jeanette were heroes that day. There should have been a highway patrol on a busy, reckless driving highway to look out for drivers of this calibre. Have laws in place and penalties to prosecute these drivers who have no regard for human lives. There are too many of these vehicular homicides and what are the consequences? Unfortunately, when my husband arrived at Linden hospital, he had to wait in line while the bacteria formed a host eating away at his lungs before he was attended hours later. Absolute incompetence!!!! This is really unacceptable in the approach of treating a ‘near drowning’ patient. Its either the hospital did not have the necessary equipment for a critical care patient or it was the lack of knowledge on the ER behalf that my husband did not get the proper critical care that should have been administered to him the FIRST 24 hours. Heavy dose of antibiotics should have been administered. Sadly, the hospital didn’t have, how unfortunate. The day shift nurses should be complimented for their dedication, and extended themselves with compassion in the preparation and transportation to Georgetown Hospital. Thank you Nurse Wong and Sabrina Lewis and Nurse Karew. After Dr. Kyte was transported to the Georgetown Public Hospital, my emotions were like a roller coaster. I was hoping to bring my husband back to the U.S. within three days. I did not know the serious damage he encountered. I did not know how sick he was because no one told me anything. No one at the hospital gave me any information on my husband’s condition. Unlike the United States, the nurses and doctors feed you with information on the patient diagnosis and condition. It seems as if everyone was afraid to divulge information. need intelligence from the community to be able to effectively tackle crime. And if large sections of the public don’t trust or don’t like the police they will obviously not share this information. It is clear that the Guyana Police Force have work to do if they are to regain the trust of the general public and become an effective crime fighting unit.

I felt alone and abandoned in a strange country and my hopes turned into despair due to the lack of compassion from the staff. I felt they were very insensitive to my situation and lacked empathy. They walked around with unpleasant countenances as though I did them something, I felt the tension and couldn’t understand the attitude they were exhibiting. I could not understand their behaviour until I returned to the U.S., and looked back at the entire situation frame by frame. I thought to myself, wow, did they take the Florence Nightingale’s Oath? Or are they in this for a pay check? As I relate my experience to others, 1 was told this is a normal behaviour towards “foreigners”. In the USA, you are given the opportunity to be at the bed side of your loved one as long as you need to be. The doctors would explain the patient’s condition with the family, the nurses explained every medication given and why, etc. No such thing happened in that unit. I was lost in an unknown environment. I was given a 1/2 hour visitation even though it’s my husband. I tried to get answers from a doctor, it took three days for a doctor to speak with me and that was after much intervention from a helpful overseas source. Heavy dose of antibiotics should have been given to my husband to stop the progress of bacteria. If one type of bacteria didn’t work use another that was stronger. He also needed to be intubated immediately so as to eliminate the bacteria and dirty water that flooded his lungs. This was a very unfortunate situation. I believe their lack of critical care the first 24 hours that was not given cost my husband’s his life. I recalled asking the doctor what was my husband’s prognosis, Doctor Husbands was very vague in her response. It’s like she was afraid to say. I asked her, “is he going to live or die, tell me something?” She said I can’t tell you that “don’t put words in my mouth.” I was not getting any information. I thought, “Lord I need to get my husband out of here!” The hospital policies should allow immediate family members such as spouse or parents close to their love ones in the room. I feel it helps in the healing progress of the patient. I would also recommend sensitivity training and constant communication between nurses and patients family member. DR WALTER KYTE Giving spouses the privilege to be at the bedside of critical care patients helps because the patients know they are not alone. It pierced my heart when my husband asked me to stay with him. I explained to him what I was told. I had to leave when visiting hours are up. He just turned on the other side and closed his eyes, as I sacrificed precious time while the staff ignored his request. He knew he was going to die and therefore, he wanted the reassurance that I was close by. However, He had his wish when I arrived in the USA because the hospital did not have those insensitive restrictions. I was in his room 24/7. “ To know that I was not given the privilege to be at his bedside as longer than I was allowed, really tore me up, especially when he told me that he would die he would not make it. I went to Matron Coby requesting some extra time to be at his bed side…. I am still waiting for her to grant that permission. I was even scolded for taking a picture of my husband and was told to delete it immediately I was told I had to get permission to take pictures of my husband. Really? I was reprimanded when I slightly lifted the sheet to hold his hand, I was told not to lift the sheet. I thought to myself what is wrong with these people? Imagine, this was my husband and I could not touch him!!! The nurses must have felt I was asking for too much and they were retaliating at my actions. I did not do anything wrong. It was all out of love for my husband. I was relieved when the air ambulance team came to transport my husband back to the U.S. What a relief. It should have happened earlier if it didn’t take the medical staff at Georgetown hospital two days to write the report informing the medical personnel in the U.S. of my husband’s condition. I thank Dr. Roger Luncheon, Mr. Michael Khan - CEO of the Georgetown Public Hospital, and Minister of Health Dr Bheri Ramsaran for their consistent intervention. It sped up things a little faster. How many more victims will we have to die until the people of Guyana rise up and demand change in transportation policies? Again, to those individuals who went above and beyond in helping me get through the emotional stress I encountered, I thank you: Nurse Thornhill, Beverly Chan, Dr. Andrea Lambert, Eddie Featherstone, Leona Kyte, Dion Albert, Dionne Bowen, Michael Roach, Carlos Kyte, Onika, Jean Dennis, Jasmine and Gloria. Also the many others whose stood by my side throughout that emotional ordeal and gave all the moral support I needed, I thank you. To the others whom I did not mention, I have not forgotten, thank you, thank you. And may ‘God Bless Guyana’, the beloved country. MRS JENNY KYTE

Persons of Tony Vieira’s ilk are from a bygone era, their usefulness is no more FIRSTLY, I must express thanks to Mr. Tony Vieira for granting my letter his focal attention. On November 6th, 2013 the Kaieteur newspaper featured a letter of mine commenting on the Mr. David Granger’s explicit intent to cut the 2014 budgetary allocations to the National Communications Network (NCN) and Government Information Agency (GINA). Mr. Granger urged that changes were necessary in these two public entities and he was prepared to cut funding. The point I raised was for Mr. Granger to clearly outline the changes needed and how he would implement them to better serve the national interest. My letter highlighted that it is not only unconstitutional and unlawful for the Opposition parties to utter views of cutting the budget that is yet to be seen but it is also presumptuous and premature. In doing so, I also indicated the constitutional entitlements of the Opposition which are to approve or withhold approval of such allocations through valid deliberations in the National Assembly. This fundamental premise can simply be ascertained from Article 218 paragraphs 1 and 2 of our Constitution. It appears that Mr. Tony Vieira missed that part of my letter. As a citizen of Guyana, I believe I am entitled to the same constitutional rights as Mr. Vieira to the freedom of expression. Mr. Vieira coined in his reply, “sometimes it’s not possible” which drove me to respond to his vapid criticisms. It is to my amazement that Mr. Vieira spoke about self-respect and attempted to lecture me on the topic. Meanwhile, an examination of his character does not emulate what he purports to teach. I argued that the incumbent ruling government should be allowed precedence in these media outlets. After all, they are government media houses. At no point in my letter did I mention that the combined Opposition (APNU and AFC) is not entitled to fair media time and involvement. Hence, my reasons for asking what changes would be proposed to facilitate this equitable media distribution, irrespective of our political positions. But it would appear that Mr. Vieira is saying these media entities have to operate exclusively in favour of a one-seat majority and totally ignore the ruling government because they are the minority. Perhaps, those

are the changes Mr. Vieira finds equitable and impartial. I strongly agree that taxpayers’ revenues should be utilised for the national well-being, but not to sanction unlegislated cuts on taxpayers’ monies. Editor, it is evident that Mr. Vieira is on board to cut the budget and disregard the laws as well. Mr. Vieira dissected my letter well which even brought him to a point of regurgitating. Furthermore, he failed to comment on the basic fact that the Oppositions’ intent to cut the budget is in violation of our Constitution. When would Guyanese at large recollect Chief Justice Ian Chang’s ruling that cutting the budget is both unconstitutional and unlawful? The Honourable Attorney General Anil Nandlall also made it clear in the National Assembly the constitutional grounds of the Government and Opposition on budgetary affairs. Moreover, the question I raised, should the ordinary Guyanese also disregard the judicial system? Should we flout the document that governs our nation? I can only surmise by paying a blind eye to the constitution and laws will have severe consequences to any nation. Mr. Vieira added that the Opposition almost never gets to express their views on these two public entities, but that’s simply not the case. For instance, the debate series aired on NCN, invited the Opposition for dialogues but they selectively ‘absented’ themselves. My critique also mentioned that the Opposition is often ridiculed and criticised on these public domains. Are these comments ridiculing because it is in contravention of his political views? If Mr. Vieira is so versatile in the media, why not comment on the broadcasting networks that the Opposition APNU and AFC exclusively have that ridicules the government? Why not point out that the government has no say in that as well? Editor, Mr. Vieira’s letter emphatically embraced cutting of the budget as he reaffirmed, “Exactly, cut, regardless of the circumstances.” Now the majority of Guyanese that he spoke

of should be alarmed with a statement of such magnitude. With simple logic, one can conclude from his statement, that the interest of this majority of people is also not important, so cut despite the outcomes. According to Mr. Vieira, we should cut at whatever cost without factoring in the repercussions. I hope the majority of Guyanese can see the recklessness in that statement. By the Opposition placing cuts on the budget without evaluating the aftermaths, doesn’t that weigh more heavily and affect the majority people that Mr. Vieira seems to advocate? Editor, Mr. Vieira then ended his diatribe with these lines: “what is dividing us, is the total disregard of the people in this nation…” I find that very contradictory. I mean if my memory serves me well, he exclaimed, “Cut, regardless of the circumstances” isn’t that a total disregard for the majority people as well? Is this a decision to be taken based on political stance or the best interest of Guyanese? The people of Guyana should not allow the label of being majority and minority, but as one people - Guyanese. Mr. Vieira catapulted himself speaking about NCN and GINA saturating young peoples’ minds with propaganda, but right there his categorisation of minority and majority reveals division within his own. As Abraham Lincoln famously noted, “A house divided against itself cannot stand.” Furthermore, I firmly believe that working together as Guyanese and embracing a constitutional driven government is our way forward. Persons of Tony Vieira’s ilk are from a bygone era. Their usefulness is no more. The quicker they are ignored the better for Guyana. MAHENDRA HARIRAJ

2014 Pension book distribution kicks off THE Ministry of Human Services and Social Security’s annual old age pension book distribution commenced yesterday at different locations across the country and the ministry reported that, based on the visits made and reports it received, the process was smooth. This early provision of the books for over 42,000 pensioners is part of Government’s effort to advance the distribution system, and will ensure that beneficiaries receive their 2014

grants in a timely manner. During an invited comment to the Government Information Agency (GINA), subject Minister Jennifer Webster said the process has been moving apace in all the regions. She disclosed that from all reports the pensioners turned out in their numbers to uplift their books and, thus far, there were no hiccups. Minister Webster said social workers in the respective areas will be visiting those persons who are shut-ins to ensure that their books are delivered direct-

ly to them. This will be done after the regular distribution process. This exercise will continue until December 13. Over the years, Government has been steadily increasing the non-contributory old age pension paid as a supportive supplement to persons over the age of 65 years. In 2012, pensioners received an increase of 33.33 percent or $10,000 monthly prior to the $7,500 they were collecting in 2011. This year’s budget allo-

cation saw pensioners benefiting from a 25% increase in their pension raising it to $12,500. The annual impact of this increase has resulted in an additional $1.3 Billion of disposable income being placed in the hands of senior

citizens. Additionally, Government also introduced the new electricity assistance for pensioners, which is intended to support them in a manner similar to that of the water subsidy where pensioners will benefit from an

annual sum of $20,000 based on approximately 25 Kw hours of electricity. Pensioners also benefit from the distribution of free spectacles under Government’s eye care assistance programme.

Removal of Cabinet’s role in procurement process is wrong - it is a constitutional and administrative heresy, says AG Nandlall

ATTORNEY General and Minister of Legal Affairs, Anil Nandlall has described the A Partnership For National Unity (APNU) and the Alliance For Change’s (AFC’s) opposition of Cabinet’s role in the awarding of public contracts as “incongruous and wrong both in principle and constitutionally”. The political Opposition, in particular the AFC, has been calling for the establishment of a Public Procurement Commission (PPC), which will see the removal of Cabinet’s role in the procurement process. “This is heresy both administratively and constitutionally, and we are saying that this incongruous position cannot obtain,” he said. Minister Nandlall explained that the PPP/C administration has always signalled its commitment to the establishment of the said body, and reminded that it was the administration which amended the Constitution, and those changes resulted in a provision for the creation of the procurement commission. “However, the commission cannot be established unless a flaw in the current Procurement Act is corrected,” he stated.

‘The PPP/C administration has always signalled its commitment to the establishment of the Procurement Commission…However, such a Commission cannot be established unless a flaw in the current Procurement Act is corrected.’ The AG explained that the constitution of the country resides the executive government with the financial responsibility and management of the state of Guyana. More than 98 percent of the financial expenditure of the state is done via the procurement process. As it stands, Cabinet’s only role in the procurement process is offering a simple “no objection” to contracts that have been awarded by the National Procurement and Tender Administration Board (NPTAB). “When the decision is made to award a contract, it is brought to Cabinet and Cabinet cannot overturn that decision; we can only grant a “no objection”. That is the only input that we have,” Minister Nandlall said. He added that, “if this role is taken away from the President and the Cabinet, then the Administration will be answerable to the country and the Parliament for the financial affairs of the State, and for expenditure of public funds

statutory provisions of all the procurement processes in the Caribbean you will see the hand of Governments heavily in it, we have minimised that in Guyana. If our procedures are examined in terms of transparency and accountability, we stand superior to most of the infrastructure; legal and constitutional, which exist in the Commonwealth Caribbean in respect of procurement,” the AG affirmed. At the last sitting of the National Assembly, Finance Minister Dr. Ashni Singh tabled the Procurement (Amendment) Bill, which seeks to modify section 54 of the Procurement Act of 2003, by deleting sub-section 6, which by doing so, will retain Cabinet’s involvement in the procurement process. Minister Nandlall contended that this amendment is simply to ensure that whoever is in Government, have the constitutionally required role to play in the expenditure of public funds. (GINA)

ATTORNEY GENERAL ANIL NANDLALL without having any role to play with regard to the expenditure of a single cent of that money. That is an incongruous position to be in, it is wrong in principle. You cannot give a power without a responsibility and you cannot give a responsibility without a role.” The flawed provision was inserted into the extant Procurement Act (then a Bill) when it was being debated on the floor some years ago. As such, it never received the approval of Cabinet before it was effected into the law. “The procurement commission is an oversight body. When a constitution sets up an oversight body, it is to “oversight” the executive but when the executive has no role in the procurement process, what will the procurement commission oversight? Obviously the Constitution presumes and assumes a role of Cabinet in the process,” the AG argued. In Guyana, the Government has a very limited role in the procurement process, when compared to other jurisdictions in the Caribbean. “We do not award contracts and if you examine the legal

‘When the decision is made to award a contract, it is brought to Cabinet and Cabinet cannot overturn that decision; we can only grant a “no objection”. That is the only input that we have. If this role is taken away from the President and the Cabinet, then the Administration will be answerable to the country and the Parliament for the financial affairs of the State and for expenditure of public funds without having any role to play with regard to the expenditure of a single cent of that money. That is an incongruous position to be in, it is wrong in principle. You cannot give a power without a responsibility and you cannot give a responsibility without a role.’ – AG Nandlall

President Ramotar meets UAE Prime Minister – boosting joint cooperation discussed PRESIDENT Donald Ramotar met Vice-President and Prime Minister of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) His Highness Shaikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum for talks while on a visit to Dubai yesterday. According to the Khaleej Times of Dubai, the two officials discussed bilateral relations in various fields and boosting joint cooperation in various areas. Among them were youth training, tourism, sea and airports, and roads, for which President Ramotar sought the UAE’s support. On this note, Shaikh Mohammed affirmed that the UAE would be willing to place its experiences, potential and development experience at service of friendly countries, regardless of their geographical locations. He also conceded to the idea of offering UAE’s technical assistance on training youth in Guyana. The delegation from the host country included Chairman of Dubai Civil Aviation Authority Shaikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum, and Chairman of Emirates Group Abdul Rahman bin, Minister of Health Mohammed Al Owais, Minister of State Reem bint Ibrahim Al Hashemi and other senior officials. Only a month ago Minister of Health in the UAE Abdulrahman Alowais visited Guyana for a meeting with President Ramotar for brief talks on cooperation in the commercial sector. The UAE is located southeast of the Arabian Peninsula on the Persian Gulf, bordering Oman, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Iran. Its foreign relations are considered liberal and have encouraged diplomatic and commercial cooperation with other countries. The economy has been ranked favourably over the years. Guyana and the UAE are both members of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), an international body with permanent membership in the United Nations that advocates the interest of the Islamic world and also peace and harmony. Former President Bharrat Jagdeo had visited the UAE during a frontier quest to the Middle East a few years ago.(GINA)

Styrofoam to be banned in Guyana from next year - Environment Ministry launches stakeholders consultation ahead of 2014 ban By Jimmy Roos

THE Ministry of Natural Resources and the Environment yesterday hosted a stakeholders consultation on styrofoam products at Duke Lodge, Kingston, ahead of the impending government ban on these products. The event was attended by Minister of Natural Resources and the Environment, Robert Persaud; Minister of Tourism, Industry and Commerce(ag) Irfaan Ali; President of the Georgetown Chamber of Commerce and Industry Clinton Urling; members of the diplomatic community and other invited guests. The Ministry of Natural Resources and the Environment organised the consultation to inform stakeholders about the progress the ministry has been making in light of the impending ban in June 2014 of polystyrene products, also known as styrofoam, which is a trademarked brand of a polystyrene foam product. The consultation also sought to solicit from stakeholders their views as well as possible concerns. NON-BIODEGRADEABLE & CARCINOGENIC Ministry officials, in disseminating some background information on styrofoam, noted that in 2007 styrofoam was found to make up to 2% of the total waste stream. They also informed that when it comes into contact with heat, it releases toxic substances that lead to cancer. It is also non-biodegradable and cannot be recycled, so it can only be used once.

Minister of Tourism, Industry and Commerce (acting) Mr Irfaan Ali supports the ban on styrofoam

Natural Resources and the Environment Minister Robert Persaud addressing the Stakeholders’ Consultation.

MINIMAL EFFECT ON BUSINESSES In his address, Mr. Urling of the GCCI noted that the impending ban on styrofoam will not have any significant effect on businesses, except for the food industry which will have to adjust to using safer alternatives. Urling remarked that his business, German’s Restaurant, has already taken the initiative and embraced alternatives to Styrofoam. He described the transition as being very easy and said that the alternatives are readily available.

reduce the waste situation. He noted that this is a people problem that will only change when people stop littering. Towards this end, he proposed a comprehensive campaign that will include changing people’s attitudes. Meanwhile, Minister Irfaan Ali congratulated his colleague Minister Robert Persaud for taking the bold initiative to ban styrofoam, which may not be popular, but is necessary to showcase Guyana as a green economy. He stressed the need for penalties and incentives as well as enforcement to ensure that this initiative becomes a success. Finally, Ali stated that this is the time to take action on the waste disposal problem that Guyana is facing. And Minister Persaud noted that the term “ban” evokes negative memories from the country’s past, but from time to time public representatives such as ministers have to take responsible and sometimes tough decisions in the interest of public health. He says that people shouldn’t see this ban as taking away something from them, but rather as an opportunity to come up with innovative alternatives, which will create jobs and help grow the economy.

cannot do it alone. He said that if this initiative is to succeed it needs the cooperation of citizens who need to realise that they have the power and authority. He also referred to the use of plastic bottles and said that they are working with beverage companies to find an acceptable solution. The minister further noted that the Opposition in parliament (APNU and AFC) had quashed the regulations his ministry had proposed to deal with this issue, but he encouraged the public to support those businesses that have already taken the initiative to discard styrofoam products in exchange for alternatives that are more environmentally friendly.

PEOPLE PROBLEM He cautioned, however, against a perception that banning styrofoam and introducing alternatives will somehow magically

CHANGE OF ATTITUDES Persaud emphasised that he agrees with Urling about the need for people to change their attitudes in this regard, but his ministry

When styrofoam comes into contact with heat, it releases toxic substances that lead to cancer, so it’s carcinogenic. It is also non-biodegradable and cannot be recycled, so it can only be used once.

Mr. Kit Nascimento, well known Public Communications Consultant and Tourism advocate and operator, makes a contribution at the Stakeholders’ Consultation.

INTERACTIVE SESSION During the interactive session, the invited guests contributed many constructive ideas to move the process forward. Most of them called for a comprehensive solution, but some saw the implementation period as being too short since there is need for some time in order to test the recyclability of the alternative products, before deciding on a particular one. Other ideas that were brought forward included clarification on whether the ban includes only the importation or use of styrofoam, or both, as well as the availability of facilities where people can put garbage in, which are currently very limited.

Minister of Sport commits to ... From back page

but I understand one stage record was broken, for which I congratulate the winner of that particular stage.” Recounting the difficulties faced to host the event, which cost approximately G$6M per year, Dr. Anthony thanked the members of the Guyana Police Force and all the others who made the race a success story this year, while making a plea for support from Corporate Guyana, to sustain the growth and development of the event. “This five-stage race takes a lot of partners for us to pull it off… The Guyana Cycling Federation have been with us from the inception and they have done all the judging and technical part of this event which we have seen grown and become one on the calendar of our country.” “When we started this race in partnership with the Ministry of Health, who benefitted from funding from a number of organizations, we thought it would provide a good backdrop in which we can educate persons across the country about HIV and AIDS,” related Dr. Anthony. “It is still an issue with our country and while we would have made good strides and tried and reduced the incidence of HIV in Guyana, we still cannot take it for granted and the reason we thought about this race is primarily due to a lot of young people being involved in cycling and a lot of them follow the race. The Ministry of Health saw the nexus for the first six years to fund the race at a cost of approximately G$6M. However, this year the international body which usually provided the funding were unable to do so, and we did not wish to discontinue the race, as it has become a calendar event.” He continued to state, “We decided from the Ministry, through the National Sports Commission that we will fund it. Within the next two to three weeks, we will be calling all the stakeholders together and plan for next year’s race. If that fails, because we want to have the private sector involved, and if that fails, then the Ministry of Sport will carry it until we can find responsible partners and corporate citizens who are willing to partner with us; but we have every confidence that they are persons out there who are seeing what this race can do, having seen it all.” In his brief remarks, Kumar said the event which was won by 19 year old Raynauth Jeffrey of Team Coco’s, was indeed a success. “I really appreciate the interest of our cyclists. Those that you see sitting here, who participated in this race, always called and enquired when we would have this race and after having discussions with Dr. Anthony, he decided that we will have the race this year, while next year we must have a fixed date,” said Kumar. Thompson said her organization is very pleased to be associated with the event, while she thanked the participants for making it a success and offer special congratulations to Jeffrey for winning this year’s edition and bringing the title back to Guyanese soil. Jeffrey recorded a winning time of 10h. 05mins: 33secs to take the top podium spot and US$1,000 and trophy, which came along with it, leaving the 2007 champion Alanzo Greaves in second place, 52 seconds behind, with his Team Coco’s teammate Darren Matthews third, a further 25 seconds behind Greaves. Williams, Godfrey Pollydore, Orville Hinds, Paul DeNobrega, Robin Persaud, defending champion Jaime Ramirez and Eastman, completed the top 10 paying positions behind Jeffrey, Greaves and Matthews in the respective order, with a time deficit of 4m: 23secs separating Jeffrey from Eastman.

Confident England eye fourth Ashes title in row By Nick Mulvenney

SYDNEY: (Reuters) - The second leg of an Ashes double-header unique in the 131 years of such contests gets underway in Brisbane on Thursday with everything bar the eternal optimism of the Australian nation pointing to

MICHAEL CLARKE a fourth successive England triumph. With the dominant 3-0 success on home soil still fresh in the memory, England can justifiably approach a trip Down Under with more confidence than at any time since the 1970s, when World Series cricket tore the heart out of the home side. The core of an England side unbeaten in Tests this year has very happy memories of their last trip in 2010-11, when they hammered Australia 3-1 to win the Ashes on foreign soil for the first time in 24 years. That feeling has been compounded by the conviction that they won in England with something to spare and their vaunted batting line-up can only do better than they did in the five home tests. “I think Australia will suit our batsmen a bit more than English conditions,” England paceman Stuart Broad said last week. “We had these sort of slow, turning wickets that are quite hard to score on and we’ve got guys who cut and pull, free-scoring players, and I think our batsmen are very excited to play here and will thrive in the Australian conditions.” And yet, despite losing seven of their last nine Tests and drawing the other two, there is also a growing feeling of confidence in Australia. The hosts feel the series in England was closer than the scoreline suggested, their batting line-up is more settled than it has been for a while and that if their quick bowlers can fire on the hard home decks, they can really trouble England. There was little chance that their preparations for the second series could be disrupted as much as those for the first, when coach Mickey Arthur was sacked and opener David Warner was stood down for punching England’s Joe Root in a bar. The excellent bowling performance of Ryan Harris in England was one reason for the growing optimism and the in-

jury-prone paceman articulated the feeling of the Australia camp after the squad was announced for the Gabba. “It’s time we brought the urn home and we know that,” he said. “You always have pressure at this level and there is extra after not winning the last few series. “But if we play our best cricket we will win. We believe in each other.” Australia have been forced by injury to take a gamble on pace bowler Mitchell Johnson recapturing his best form after four years of erratic performances which have made him the favourite target of England’s Barmy Army of fans. In addition, Harris’s fragile frame is unlikely to last the full five tests so Australia will be hoping the recuperation of James Pattinson and Jackson Bird continues to go well. BAILEY GAMBLE Another gamble was on the uncapped George Bailey for the vacant number six batting spot and while the 31-year-old does not have great red ball pedigree, he has shown a remarkable ability to step for his country in Twenty20 and one-day internationals. All-rounder Shane Watson’s talent is in no doubt but a hamstring injury has disrupted his preparations and the decision over whether he will be able to bowl in the first test is likely to

be taken on the first morning at the Gabba. Despite those small flies in the ointment, Australia captain Michael Clarke has been trumpeting the new optimism like a politician on the campaign trail. “I think the team is in a fantastic place and the feeling in the group is outstanding,” he said in Sydney last week. “I think the boys are flying. They’re all looking forward to Thursday week.” The A us tralian weather means England’s preparations have not been perfect but, apart from a calf injury to wicketkeeper Matt Prior, they have not seen much to darken their collective mood. “As a team, I think we can take a lot of confidence about how we’ve performed over a the last 18 months or so,” said Broad. “We’ve had games where we’ve not been that good but got away with draws when we shouldn’t have done. We’ve got a really steely unit in that changing room.” Jonny Bairstow is on standby should Prior fail to prove his fitness, while opener Michael Carberry looks set to make his Ashes debut at the Gabba with Root moving down to number six in the batting order. Australia, though, has never been an easy place to tour for

any England side. Their last win at the Gabba came in 1986 and their most recent victory in Perth, venue for the third Test, goes even further back to the 1978-79 tour. The decision to move the Australia-hosted Ashes out of its proximity to the limited overs World Cup in the cricketing calendar means only 88 days will have past between the two

ALASTAIR COOK series this year. There has been no sign of any Ashes fatigue setting in, though, and ticket sales have been brisk for all the matches, which also include tests in Adelaide, Melbourne and Sydney. “The Aussie public have got an excitement from feeling their side is a bit more settled and are really coming for us,” added Broad. “And we’ve a lot of confidence in our own ability and I think if I was a fan I’d be really excited about this series, it’s going to be extremely entertaining.”

Bharat Ratna award for Sachin Tendulkar SACHIN Tendulkar will become the first sportsperson to be conferred the Bharat Ratna, India’s highest civilian award. The Prime Minister’s Office made the announcement hours after Tendulkar brought down the curtains on a 24-year international career. “Sachin Tendulkar is undoubtedly an outstanding cricketer - a living legend who has inspired millions across the globe,” a PMO release said. “During the last 24 years, since the young age of 16 years, Tendulkar has played cricket across the world and won laurels for our country. He has been a true ambassador of India in the world of sports. His achievements in cricket are unparalleled, the records set by him unmatched, and the spirit of sportsmanship displayed by him exemplary. That he has been honoured with several awards is testimony to his extraordinary brilliance as a sportsman. SACHIN TENDULKAR Speculation about Tendulkar getting the award has been around for years, and peaked in 2011 when the eligibility criteria for the award was broadened. Originally, the honour was for excellence in “art, literature, science and public services” but was amended to recognise “performance of highest order in any field of human endeavour”. In 2008, Tendulkar became the first sportsperson, along with chess grandmaster Viswanathan Anand, to receive the Padma Vibhushan, India’s second-highest civilian honour. Tendulkar received the Arjuna Award (a national award for distinguished sports persons) in 1994, and in 1998 he received the Rajiv Gandhi Khel Ratna award, the country’s highest sporting honour. The next year, he was the recipient of the Padma Shri ( the fourth-highest civilian award). Previous recipients of the Bharat Ratna include Nobel laureates Nelson Mandela and Mother Teresa.

Maracanazo 1950 repeat is the spur for Uruguay By Malena Castaldi

MONTEVIDEOLReuters) Uruguay are 5-0 up going into the second leg of their World Cup playoff against Jordan at the Centenario tomorrow and already dreaming of achieving another ‘Maracanazo’ at the finals in Brazil next year. Before kickoff the hosts will honour 86-year-old Alcides Ghiggia who scored the winning goal and is the sole survivor of the 2-1 upset victory over Brazil that gave Uruguay their second world title in the 1950 final at the Maracana. “What happened in that World Cup left a big mark on the Brazilian people,” Paris St Germain striker Edinson Cavani told a news conference yesterday. “Uruguay have earned their respect,” said Cavani who scored a brilliant fifth goal with a venomous free kick in last week’s first leg in Amman. The Uruguayans suffered a form slump in 2012 that jeopardised their qualification chances but were desperate to make it to Brazil, given the rivalry with their northern neighbours and the memory of the ‘Maracanazo’. Cavani’s side, semi-finalists at the 2010 World Cup

in South Africa, do not want to show any lack of respect to their playoff opponents despite the one-sided nature of last week’s match. The Interior Ministry have urged the sellout crowd of 45,000 at the Centenario, the stadium where Uruguay won their first World Cup in 1930, not to whistle or boo the Jordanian national anthem before

kickoff. “Uruguay took a substantial step towards qualifying for Brazil 2014 and they did so without humiliating their rivals even if the loaded scoreline appears to suggest the opposite,” the ministry said in a statement at the weekend. “The thousands of Jordanians who watched the match enjoyed the light blues’s game.

A packed stadium dreaming of another result ended up applauding our team, showing that respect is ... as valuable as the dream of playing at a World Cup.” TRUE NIGHTMARE A team brimming with top talent such as Liverpool’s Luis Suarez and his strike partner Ca-

vani would have to experience a true nightmare not to go through to the finals from this position. Coach Oscar Tabar ez, who is likely to name an unchanged team, is not expecting any complacency from his side. “Footballers often feel their motivation according to their needs,” he said. “When there’s no need there’s no motivation but I think as we get nearer the match ... things will fall into place and I hope we can fulfil our objective which is to play a very good match.” Suarez, leading scorer with 11 goals in the 16-match South American qualifying group, did not manage to get on the scoresheet in the first leg and will be looking to put that right in the return tie. The Jordanians know it is almost impossible to overturn their first-leg deficit. “We’re not going to kid ourselves, we are very disappointed. We told everyone at home it would be difficult but we hoped to give much more,” said striker Tha’er Bewab. “Now we’ve come here for a good result. Above all for the public, we want to change our image.

BCB/ NAMILCO/BAKEWELL T20 TOURNAMENT

Brilliant Fudadin leads Rose Hall Town Gizmos and Gadgets to title A BRILLIANT all round performance from West Indies Test player, Assad Fudadin, led Rose Hall Town Gizmos and Gadgets to an easy and comprehensive seven-wicket victory over Albion Cricket Club in the finals of the Berbice Cricket Board/Namilco/ Bakewell T20 tournament on Sunday last. Playing in front of a large and colorful crowd at the famous Albion Cricket Club ground, Fudadin took 4 for 24 runs and returned with the bat to score an even half-century to lead his team home. RHT Gizmos and Gadgets won the toss and surprisingly, invited their host to take first strike, to which Sewnarine Chattergoon (16) and Kandasammy Surujnarine posted 28 for the first wicket; this was before the former was brilliantly taken by Dominic Rikhi at the long on boundary off the bowling of Royston Crandon in the fifth over. The talented Balchan Baldeo (13) joined Surujnarine and they carried the score to 50 before Fudadin, bowling medium pace, removed Baldeo, while the dangerous Jonathan Foo was not allowed to settle and was brilliantly caught by Fudadin at short mid wicket for 10 off the bowling of veteran left arm spinner Ravi Narine. Thereafter, Albion’s batting was kept in check and only

Anthony Bramble (27) and Devindra Bishoo (11) offered some resistance to Fudadin, who got support from Narine, Eon Hooper, Crandon and Rikhi, as Albion were dismissed for 114 in their allotted 20 overs. RHTGG lost Hooper (00), who was used as a pinch hitter in the first over to off spinner, Veerapen Permaul, but Fudadin and Rikhi batted brilliantly to add 90 runs for the second wicket, before Fudadin was caught at long off, off Foo for a mature 50 (3x4) off 48 balls in the 15th over. National player, Rajiv Ivan, and Rikhi continued to build on the foundation laid by Fudadin and took the score to 109 in the 17th over before Rikhi was caught behind off Bishoo for 36 off 43 balls. However, it was the final success for Albion, as Ivan and Crandon took their team to 115 for 3 in the 18th over, with Ivan being unbeaten on 16 and Crandon 3, respectively, as Permaul Foo and Bishoo took a wicket each for Albion who were surprisingly ragged in the field. Earlier in the third place playoff, Universal Solutions Bermine defeated West Berbice Super Kings by five wickets to take that position. Batting first, West Berbice reached 92 for 6 off their allotted 20 overs with skipper, Krisendat Ramoo, scoring 33

and Arthley Bailey supporting him with 22. Romario Shepherd took 2 for 27 for Bermine, who in reply reached 96 for 5 in 18.2 overs, thanks to an unbeaten 31 from Eugene LaFleur and Shemroy Barrington’s 29, as national fast bowler, Keon Joseph, bowled with genuine pace to snare 3 for 14. At the presentation ceremony that followed, president of the BCB, Keith Foster, praised Namilco and Bakewell for their joint investment in Berbice cricket while noting that the game continues to attract sponsorship due to the hard work of the Board. He congratulated the winners on a well deserved victory and urged the top two teams in Berbice to always maintain their high standards. General Manager of Bakewell, Rajin Ganga, in his brief remarks expressed gratitude to the executives of BCB for a well organised tournament and was pleased with the quality of cricket he saw. Bert Sukhai, Managing Director of Namilco, hailed the tournament as a success and, like Ganga, praised the work of the BCB noting that this was his company’s first venture into sponsorship of cricket and said they would be willing to return next year once a good proposal is submitted. Fudadin collected a one-

Hong Kong thrash Canada ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates, (CMC) — Opener Irfan Ahmed struck a century and Munir Dar claimed four wickets as unbeaten Hong Kong thrashed Canada by 53 runs in a Group A match of the ICC World Cup Twenty20 qualifiers at the Sheikh Zayed Nursery 1 ground here yesterday. While Hong Kong were recording their third straight victory, Scotland, Uganda and Kenya won at the third attempt to keep their hopes alive. Pakistan-born Ahmed’s 53-ball 100, which contained eight sixes and four fours, helped Hong Kong post 168-5 before restricting Canada to 115-8, Dar claiming 4-17. Scotland, who lost their opener to Bermuda, got off the mark with an eight-wicket win over Nepal in Dubai. Calum MacLeod spearheaded Scotland’s reply after Nepal posted 137-7, hitting five fours and three sixes in his unbeaten 82 from 64 balls to see his side home with four balls remaining. Earlier, Nepal were pegged back by Safyaan Sharif (3-19) and Gordon Goudie (3-29). Uganda registered their first win by beating Italy by one wicket with one ball left in Abu Dhabi.

Vettel proud of eight wins record SEBASTIAN Vettel is “proud” of becoming the first driver to win eight consecutive races in a single season.

People look back and talk about certain drivers. One day people might talk abou He said the achievement, which he described as “incredible” would not fully sink in until Monday morning. “It’s always the day after usually you feel invincible - don’t get me wrong,” said Vettel, who tied up his fourth consecutive title in India three races ago. “It is great feeling. You have a grin on your face, unless you have a hangover. It is nice feeling, Sunday things happen very quick and it is bit harder to realise. “It is one of those records that was not meant to be broken ever and it’s very difficult to understand we actually did it. “It is down to team effort. Everyone is willing to push. This morning at eight o’clock the car was in pieces - we had the gearbox on the floor we had some concern about reliability and the guys were trying to fix it and it ran fine in the race. “Since the summer break I don’t know what we have all done, but we need to remember for future years should we require a little bit more than just good performance. “As a sportsman you know not every day is supposed to be a good day, you will have ups and downs. “The points when you are at the low they hurt a lot more than when you are on the high. “I keep saying there is no guarantee for the next race, for the next race and equally for the year after.

Goodluck retains rifle shooting title on hard fought day

RANSFORD Goodluck retained his title on a hard fought final day of competition at the National Rifle Shooting championships sponsored by Crown Mining, Queensway and Industrial SafetySupplies Inc. which ended Sunday at the Timehri ranges. Goodluck amassed a grand aggregate of 343 points with 29 V-bulls to claim championship honours edging out day three winner National Captain, MahendraPersaud, who recorded an overall 341 with 24 V-bulls for second position. Rain had curtailed competition on Saturday in which Lennox Braithwaite shot two possibles with scored of 35.7 and 35. 3 shooting at 500 and 600 yards ranges followed by Goodluck with 69.11 (34.6 and 35.3), Per- RANSFORD GOODLUCK saud with 68.7 (33.4 and 35.3), and Dylan Fields 68.5 (35.3 and 33.2) being the ‘X’ Class leaders.

He was followed by Goodluck with 142.9, Fields 138.9 and Braithwaite 134.9. Fields finished with an overall aggregate of 338.22 to claim third position while Braithwaite was fourth with 332.29. Lt.

Minister of Sport commits to continuation of Annual ‘Ride for Life’ event ….Fixed date for 2014 edition

Cycling Federation, Cheryl Thompson, along with cyclists who competed in the just concluded seventh annual ‘Ride for Life’ cycle road race. “We are extremely pleased that Team Coco’s and the other foreign competitors are here to compete, not because of the prizes, but to provide intense competition because if they were looking at the prizes, they would not have been here this year. “I think that since we’ve had the participation of Team Coco’s, we have seen the qual-

but I understand one stage record was broken, for which I congratulate the winner of that particular stage.” Recounting the difficulties faced to host the event, which cost approximately G$6M per year, Dr. Anthony thanked the members of the Guyana Police Force and all the others who made the race a success story this year, while making a plea for support from Corporate Guyana, to sustain the growth and development of the event. “This five-stage race takes a lot of partners for us to pull it off… The Guyana Cycling Federation have been with us from the inception and they have done all the judging and technical part of this event which we have seen grown and become one on the calendar of our country.” “When we started this race in partnership with the Ministry of Health, who benefitted from funding from a number of organizations, we thought it would provide a good backdrop in which we can educate persons across the country about HIV and AIDS,” related Dr. Anthony. “It is still an issue with our country and while we would have made good strides and tried and reduced the incidence of HIV in Guyana, we still cannot take it for granted and the reason we thought about this race is primarily due to a lot of young people being involved in cycling and a lot of them follow the race. The Ministry of Health saw the nexus for the first six years to fund the race at a cost of approximately G$6M. However, this year the international body which usually provided the funding were unable to do so, and we did not wish to discontinue the race, as it has become a calendar event.” He continued to state, “We decided from the Ministry, through the National Sports Commission that we will fund it. Within the next two to three weeks, we will be calling all the stakeholders together and plan for next year’s race. If that fails, because we want to have the private sector involved, and if that fails, then the Ministry of Sport will carry it until we can find responsible partners and corporate citizens who are willing to partner with us; but we have every confidence that they are persons out there who are seeing what this race can do, having seen it all.” In his brief remarks, Kumar said the event which was won by 19 year old Raynauth Jeffrey of Team Coco’s, was indeed a success. “I really appreciate the interest of our cyclists. Those that you see sitting here, who participated in this race, always called and enquired when we would have this race and after having discussions with Dr. Anthony, he decided that we will have the race this year, while next year we must have a fixed date,” said Kumar. Thompson said her organization is very pleased to be associated with the event, while she thanked the participants for making it a success and offer special congratulations to Jeffrey for winning this year’s edition and bringing the title back to Guyanese soil. Jeffrey recorded a winning time of 10h. 05mins: 33secs to take the top podium spot and US$1,000 and trophy, which came along with it, leaving the 2007 champion Alanzo Greaves in second place, 52 seconds behind, with his Team Coco’s teammate Darren Matthews third, a further 25 seconds behind Greaves. Williams, Godfrey Pollydore, Orville Hinds, Paul DeNobrega, Robin Persaud, defending champion Jaime Ramirez and Eastman, completed the top 10 paying positions behind Jeffrey, Greaves and Matthews in the respective order, with a time deficit of 4m: 23secs separating Jeffrey from Eastman.

Confident England eye fourth Ashes title in row By Nick Mulvenney

SYDNEY: (Reuters) - The second leg of an Ashes double-header unique in the 131 years of such contests gets underway in Brisbane on Thursday with everything bar the eternal optimism of the Australian nation pointing to

MICHAEL CLARKE a fourth successive England triumph. With the dominant 3-0 success on home soil still fresh in the memory, England can justifiably approach a trip Down Under with more confidence than at any time since the 1970s, when World Series cricket tore the heart out of the home side. The core of an England side unbeaten in Tests this year has very happy memories of their last trip in 2010-11, when they hammered Australia 3-1 to win the Ashes on foreign soil for the first time in 24 years. That feeling has been compounded by the conviction that they won in England with something to spare and their vaunted batting line-up can only do better than they did in the five home tests. “I think Australia will suit our batsmen a bit more than English conditions,” England paceman Stuart Broad said last week. “We had these sort of slow, turning wickets that are quite hard to score on and we’ve got guys who cut and pull, free-scoring players, and I think our batsmen are very excited to play here and will thrive in the Australian conditions.” And yet, despite losing seven of their last nine Tests and drawing the other two, there is also a growing feeling of confidence in Australia. The hosts feel the series in England was closer than the scoreline suggested, their batting line-up is more settled than it has been for a while and that if their quick bowlers can fire on the hard home decks, they can really trouble England. There was little chance that their preparations for the second series could be disrupted as much as those for the first, when coach Mickey Arthur was sacked and opener David Warner was stood down for punching England’s Joe Root in a bar. The excellent bowling performance of Ryan Harris in England was one reason for the growing optimism and the in-

jury-prone paceman articulated the feeling of the Australia camp after the squad was announced for the Gabba. “It’s time we brought the urn home and we know that,” he said. “You always have pressure at this level and there is extra after not winning the last few series. “But if we play our best cricket we will win. We believe in each other.” Australia have been forced by injury to take a gamble on pace bowler Mitchell Johnson recapturing his best form after four years of erratic performances which have made him the favourite target of England’s Barmy Army of fans. In addition, Harris’s fragile frame is unlikely to last the full five tests so Australia will be hoping the recuperation of James Pattinson and Jackson Bird continues to go well. BAILEY GAMBLE Another gamble was on the uncapped George Bailey for the vacant number six batting spot and while the 31-year-old does not have great red ball pedigree, he has shown a remarkable ability to step for his country in Twenty20 and one-day internationals. All-rounder Shane Watson’s talent is in no doubt but a hamstring injury has disrupted his preparations and the decision over whether he will be able to bowl in the first test is likely to

be taken on the first morning at the Gabba. Despite those small flies in the ointment, Australia captain Michael Clarke has been trumpeting the new optimism like a politician on the campaign trail. “I think the team is in a fantastic place and the feeling in the group is outstanding,” he said in Sydney last week. “I think the boys are flying. They’re all looking forward to Thursday week.” The A us tralian weather means England’s preparations have not been perfect but, apart from a calf injury to wicketkeeper Matt Prior, they have not seen much to darken their collective mood. “As a team, I think we can take a lot of confidence about how we’ve performed over a the last 18 months or so,” said Broad. “We’ve had games where we’ve not been that good but got away with draws when we shouldn’t have done. We’ve got a really steely unit in that changing room.” Jonny Bairstow is on standby should Prior fail to prove his fitness, while opener Michael Carberry looks set to make his Ashes debut at the Gabba with Root moving down to number six in the batting order. Australia, though, has never been an easy place to tour for

any England side. Their last win at the Gabba came in 1986 and their most recent victory in Perth, venue for the third Test, goes even further back to the 1978-79 tour. The decision to move the Australia-hosted Ashes out of its proximity to the limited overs World Cup in the cricketing calendar means only 88 days will have past between the two

ALASTAIR COOK series this year. There has been no sign of any Ashes fatigue setting in, though, and ticket sales have been brisk for all the matches, which also include tests in Adelaide, Melbourne and Sydney. “The Aussie public have got an excitement from feeling their side is a bit more settled and are really coming for us,” added Broad. “And we’ve a lot of confidence in our own ability and I think if I was a fan I’d be really excited about this series, it’s going to be extremely entertaining.”

Bharat Ratna award for Sachin Tendulkar SACHIN Tendulkar will become the first sportsperson to be conferred the Bharat Ratna, India’s highest civilian award. The Prime Minister’s Office made the announcement hours after Tendulkar brought down the curtains on a 24-year international career. “Sachin Tendulkar is undoubtedly an outstanding cricketer - a living legend who has inspired millions across the globe,” a PMO release said. “During the last 24 years, since the young age of 16 years, Tendulkar has played cricket across the world and won laurels for our country. He has been a true ambassador of India in the world of sports. His achievements in cricket are unparalleled, the records set by him unmatched, and the spirit of sportsmanship displayed by him exemplary. That he has been honoured with several awards is testimony to his extraordinary brilliance as a sportsman. SACHIN TENDULKAR Speculation about Tendulkar getting the award has been around for years, and peaked in 2011 when the eligibility criteria for the award was broadened. Originally, the honour was for excellence in “art, literature, science and public services” but was amended to recognise “performance of highest order in any field of human endeavour”. In 2008, Tendulkar became the first sportsperson, along with chess grandmaster Viswanathan Anand, to receive the Padma Vibhushan, India’s second-highest civilian honour. Tendulkar received the Arjuna Award (a national award for distinguished sports persons) in 1994, and in 1998 he received the Rajiv Gandhi Khel Ratna award, the country’s highest sporting honour. The next year, he was the recipient of the Padma Shri ( the fourth-highest civilian award). Previous recipients of the Bharat Ratna include Nobel laureates Nelson Mandela and Mother Teresa.

Maracanazo 1950 repeat is the spur for Uruguay By Malena Castaldi

MONTEVIDEOLReuters) Uruguay are 5-0 up going into the second leg of their World Cup playoff against Jordan at the Centenario tomorrow and already dreaming of achieving another ‘Maracanazo’ at the finals in Brazil next year. Before kickoff the hosts will honour 86-year-old Alcides Ghiggia who scored the winning goal and is the sole survivor of the 2-1 upset victory over Brazil that gave Uruguay their second world title in the 1950 final at the Maracana. “What happened in that World Cup left a big mark on the Brazilian people,” Paris St Germain striker Edinson Cavani told a news conference yesterday. “Uruguay have earned their respect,” said Cavani who scored a brilliant fifth goal with a venomous free kick in last week’s first leg in Amman. The Uruguayans suffered a form slump in 2012 that jeopardised their qualification chances but were desperate to make it to Brazil, given the rivalry with their northern neighbours and the memory of the ‘Maracanazo’. Cavani’s side, semi-finalists at the 2010 World Cup

in South Africa, do not want to show any lack of respect to their playoff opponents despite the one-sided nature of last week’s match. The Interior Ministry have urged the sellout crowd of 45,000 at the Centenario, the stadium where Uruguay won their first World Cup in 1930, not to whistle or boo the Jordanian national anthem before

kickoff. “Uruguay took a substantial step towards qualifying for Brazil 2014 and they did so without humiliating their rivals even if the loaded scoreline appears to suggest the opposite,” the ministry said in a statement at the weekend. “The thousands of Jordanians who watched the match enjoyed the light blues’s game.

A packed stadium dreaming of another result ended up applauding our team, showing that respect is ... as valuable as the dream of playing at a World Cup.” TRUE NIGHTMARE A team brimming with top talent such as Liverpool’s Luis Suarez and his strike partner Ca-

vani would have to experience a true nightmare not to go through to the finals from this position. Coach Oscar Tabar ez, who is likely to name an unchanged team, is not expecting any complacency from his side. “Footballers often feel their motivation according to their needs,” he said. “When there’s no need there’s no motivation but I think as we get nearer the match ... things will fall into place and I hope we can fulfil our objective which is to play a very good match.” Suarez, leading scorer with 11 goals in the 16-match South American qualifying group, did not manage to get on the scoresheet in the first leg and will be looking to put that right in the return tie. The Jordanians know it is almost impossible to overturn their first-leg deficit. “We’re not going to kid ourselves, we are very disappointed. We told everyone at home it would be difficult but we hoped to give much more,” said striker Tha’er Bewab. “Now we’ve come here for a good result. Above all for the public, we want to change our image.

BCB/ NAMILCO/BAKEWELL T20 TOURNAMENT

Brilliant Fudadin leads Rose Hall Town Gizmos and Gadgets to title A BRILLIANT all round performance from West Indies Test player, Assad Fudadin, led Rose Hall Town Gizmos and Gadgets to an easy and comprehensive seven-wicket victory over Albion Cricket Club in the finals of the Berbice Cricket Board/Namilco/ Bakewell T20 tournament on Sunday last. Playing in front of a large and colorful crowd at the famous Albion Cricket Club ground, Fudadin took 4 for 24 runs and returned with the bat to score an even half-century to lead his team home. RHT Gizmos and Gadgets won the toss and surprisingly, invited their host to take first strike, to which Sewnarine Chattergoon (16) and Kandasammy Surujnarine posted 28 for the first wicket; this was before the former was brilliantly taken by Dominic Rikhi at the long on boundary off the bowling of Royston Crandon in the fifth over. The talented Balchan Baldeo (13) joined Surujnarine and they carried the score to 50 before Fudadin, bowling medium pace, removed Baldeo, while the dangerous Jonathan Foo was not allowed to settle and was brilliantly caught by Fudadin at short mid wicket for 10 off the bowling of veteran left arm spinner Ravi Narine. Thereafter, Albion’s batting was kept in check and only

Anthony Bramble (27) and Devindra Bishoo (11) offered some resistance to Fudadin, who got support from Narine, Eon Hooper, Crandon and Rikhi, as Albion were dismissed for 114 in their allotted 20 overs. RHTGG lost Hooper (00), who was used as a pinch hitter in the first over to off spinner, Veerapen Permaul, but Fudadin and Rikhi batted brilliantly to add 90 runs for the second wicket, before Fudadin was caught at long off, off Foo for a mature 50 (3x4) off 48 balls in the 15th over. National player, Rajiv Ivan, and Rikhi continued to build on the foundation laid by Fudadin and took the score to 109 in the 17th over before Rikhi was caught behind off Bishoo for 36 off 43 balls. However, it was the final success for Albion, as Ivan and Crandon took their team to 115 for 3 in the 18th over, with Ivan being unbeaten on 16 and Crandon 3, respectively, as Permaul Foo and Bishoo took a wicket each for Albion who were surprisingly ragged in the field. Earlier in the third place playoff, Universal Solutions Bermine defeated West Berbice Super Kings by five wickets to take that position. Batting first, West Berbice reached 92 for 6 off their allotted 20 overs with skipper, Krisendat Ramoo, scoring 33

and Arthley Bailey supporting him with 22. Romario Shepherd took 2 for 27 for Bermine, who in reply reached 96 for 5 in 18.2 overs, thanks to an unbeaten 31 from Eugene LaFleur and Shemroy Barrington’s 29, as national fast bowler, Keon Joseph, bowled with genuine pace to snare 3 for 14. At the presentation ceremony that followed, president of the BCB, Keith Foster, praised Namilco and Bakewell for their joint investment in Berbice cricket while noting that the game continues to attract sponsorship due to the hard work of the Board. He congratulated the winners on a well deserved victory and urged the top two teams in Berbice to always maintain their high standards. General Manager of Bakewell, Rajin Ganga, in his brief remarks expressed gratitude to the executives of BCB for a well organised tournament and was pleased with the quality of cricket he saw. Bert Sukhai, Managing Director of Namilco, hailed the tournament as a success and, like Ganga, praised the work of the BCB noting that this was his company’s first venture into sponsorship of cricket and said they would be willing to return next year once a good proposal is submitted. Fudadin collected a one-

Vettel proud of eight wins record SEBASTIAN Vettel is “proud” of becoming the first driver to win eight consecutive races in a single season. The Red Bull driver broke a record held by Michael Schumacher and Alberto Ascari with victory in the US GP. “Numbers do not make me jump in the car but we realised we had done it and it makes you very proud,” Vettel said. “You realise what it means to look back at those names. People look back and talk about certain drivers. One day people might talk abou He said the achievement, which he described as “incredible” would not fully sink in until Monday morning. “It’s always the day after usually you feel invincible - don’t get me wrong,” said Vettel, who tied up his fourth consecutive title in India three races ago. “It is great feeling. You have a grin on your face, unless you have a hangover. It is nice feeling, Sunday things happen very quick and it is bit harder to realise. “It is one of those records that was not meant to be broken ever and it’s very difficult to understand we actually did it. “It is down to team effort. Everyone is willing to push. This morning at eight o’clock the car was in pieces - we had the gearbox on the floor we had some concern about reliability and the guys were trying to fix it and it ran fine in the race. “Since the summer break I don’t know what we have all done, but we need to remember for future years should we require a little bit more than just good performance. “As a sportsman you know not every day is supposed to be a good day, you will have ups and downs. “The points when you are at the low they hurt a lot more than when you are on the high. “I keep saying there is no guarantee for the next race, for the next race and equally for the year after. We had a phenomenal run that last five years. You never know what is coming next.

Minister of Sport commits to continuation of Annual ‘Ride for Life’ event ….Fixed date for 2014 edition

By Calvin Roberts “WE ARE looking at having a multitude of partners for next year’s event and if not, I want to guarantee you that the Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sport (MCYS) will fund and continue to fund the race until we get other partners to come on board with us.” Those were the words of Minister of Sport Dr. Frank Anthony, who was addressing his audience which included Director of Sport, Neil Kumar, and president of the Guyana

Cycling Federation, Cheryl Thompson, along with cyclists who competed in the just concluded seventh annual ‘Ride for Life’ cycle road race. “We are extremely pleased that Team Coco’s and the other foreign competitors are here to compete, not because of the prizes, but to provide intense competition because if they were looking at the prizes, they would not have been here this year. “I think that since we’ve had the participation of Team Coco’s, we have seen the qual-

ity of the race improving, especially the timings which have noticeably improved once we start having external competition and that is good,” related Dr. Anthony at the National Cultural Centre last Sunday. He added, “I think this is good. It is good that we are able to have this firm competitiveness, so that we can improve overall. Every year Minister of Sport, Dr. Frank Anthony (left), presents the overall winner of the seventh we look to break records and annual National Sports Commission/Ministry of Sport/Ministry of Health/Guyana Cycling unfortunately we were not able Federation ‘Ride for Life’ five-stage road race, Raynauth Jeffrey, with his championship to break the overall record, trophy and jersey, while Director of Sport, Neil Kumar (center), looks on appreciatively.
