State to fund funerals of slain cops, civilians - Minister Webster
By Leroy Smith THE Government of Guyana will be standing the full funeral expenses for the two civilians who were killed on Tuesday by berserk businessman, Deryck Khanai, who shot them before securing himself in a salon located at the bottom of his apartment. While in there he continued his indiscriminate firing, kill-
ing two policemen, Lance Corporal Michael Forde and Constable Sherwin Pantliz. Yesterday the relatives of one of the policemen and the two civilians were visited by a high level team from the Guyana Police Force headed by Senior Superintendent and Staff Officer, Maxine Graham and other senior officers from the Police Welfare Department of the Force, along with Hu-
man Services Minister, Jennifer Webster and her team. Minister Webster reiterated that the shooting was indeed an unfortunate encounter as she entered the home of fallen police officer, Michael Forde to comfort his mother and other relatives and friends. Incidentally the woman is also a staff member of the Ministry of Human Services and Social Security. The minister promised the woman that the ministry will be doing everything possible to ensure that she get the support that is needed at this time. Senior Superintendent Graham brought a message of condolence from Police Commissioner, Leroy Brumell. The Senior Superintendent and Staff Officer told the grieving mother that the Guyana Police Force will do all that needs to be done to ensure that her son has a decent funeral and that she is comfortable thereafter. According to Staff Officer Graham, all benefits of the fallen officer will be handed over to the family following the due process. She noted that all police officers are mourning and hurting since the fallen cop was one of theirs.

STATE OF SHOCK
Minister of Human Services and Social Security, Jennifer Webster comforts the next of kin of Hugh Allister Paul, Patricia Coats, who took care of the man in the absence of his biological relatives Meanwhile following the news of her son’s death the woman apparently went into a state of shock and up to noon yesterday was unable to speak
and had to communicate with relatives by writing. The woman communicated with her relatives by writing her thoughts in an exercise book.
After listening to Minister Webster and Staff Officer Graham the woman then wrote in her exercise book, expressing her gratitude to them and their organisations. The woman also showed the visiting officials that yesterday she and her son had a discussion and he expressed his reluctance in going to work and she forced him to get up and go to his job. Relatives noted that the woman has expressed her hurt that she forced her son to go to his job and he died. Webster and Graham were also told about Forde, uncannily communicating with relatives, friends and even senior officers as early as 4 am on Tuesday, apologising for wrongs he had done. They said that he even asked for forgiveness. The next stop was New Market and East Streets where the team met the next of kin to pensioner Hugh Allister Paul who was shot while passing through the area. It is widely believed that the man who is a very open person who

Cabinet gives green light to SOCU - to probe suspicious financial transactions
By Telesha Ramnarine CABINET last Tuesday finally approved the creation of the Serious Organised Crime Unit (SOCU) that will be dedicated to the investigations of suspect financial transactions suggestive of money laundering and financing of terrorism. The unit, expected to become operational before year-end, would be under the Commissioner of Police and would have a close relationship with the Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU), Secretary to the Cabinet, Dr Roger Luncheon informed yesterday. Speaking at his usual post-Cabinet press briefing at the Office of the President in Georgetown, Luncheon said SOCU is intended to be Guyana’s response to its treaty obligations to investigate suspicious financial transactions. SOCU’s creation is in response to non-parliamentary recommendations from the Caribbean Financial Action Task Force (CFATF), he said. Funding was also approved by Cabinet for the unit’s operations. At an earlier press conference, Luncheon had said that the

liked to engage in conversations may have stopped to converse with the other shot victim, Vanessa Williams, when he himself was shot. His daughter who is said to be a doctor in the United States should be travelling to Guyana sometime soon. His next of kin, popular designer Patricia Coates, was given the assurance that all funeral arrangements and other assistance for the man would be done through her, since she was the person caring for him at the time of his death. SECURITY IS EVERYONE’S BUSINESS Following the visits the minister while speaking to the media called for the public to be more responsible and sensitive about what is happening in their environs. She made the call after being told that the man was seen walking along the street with a gun in hand and one in his waist. Security is everyone’s business, she remarked. The visit was wrapped up at the home of taxi dispatcher Vanessa Williams. Her house was filled with relatives, including her mother, grandfather, children and sibling. The family received words of comfort from Senior Superintendent Graham and the Minister Webster both of whom expressed sadness at the events of Tuesday in the city. The family was told that following the post-mortem, the family can approach the ministry and the entire funeral expenses will be taken care of by the Government of Guyana through the Ministry of Human Services and Social Security. The dead woman’s youngest child attends primary school and according to the minister, the child will receive counselling while her grandmother will be receiving financial assistance from the ministry to facilitate the continuation of her schooling. The child will be placed under the Ministry of Human Services and Social Security’s foster care programme.
formation of a functioning and effective SOCU and its dedication to investigating anti-money laundering crimes will remain on the front burner. Meanwhile, Guyana has violated every time-frame prescribed

Currently, the country stands most likely to be placed on a list of non-compliant jurisdictions. “Should that occur, the ramifications for our commercial sector and our image as an investment and tourist destination are indeed as far reaching as they are profound. In the end, every single Guya-
nese would be affected,” explained Attorney General, Anil Nandlall recently. “Yet, the Opposition continues to make utterances which tend to suggest that they do not consider this as a matter of importance and urgency. Indeed, no other than the Leader of the Opposition was reported as saying that he is unconcerned about the deadlines fixed. “According to him, the APNU’s priority is for Guyana to Dr Roger Luncheon have a good Bill. It is either that the Leader of the Opposition does not understand the issues or does not care to understand the issues, and therefore wants Guyana to be blacklisted,” said Nandlall.
Opposition’s actions on antilaundering bill intended to hurt national interests - Luncheon By Telesha Ramnarine SECRETARY to the Cabinet, Dr Roger Luncheon yesterday said it is Cabinet’s contention that the opposition’s actions with regard to the non-passage of the Anti-Money Laundering/Countering the Financing of Terrorism (AML/CFT) Bill are clearly intended to hurt Guyana and its national interests. “And it is obvious that, that hurt is to be spread indiscriminately,” Luncheon said at his weekly post-Cabinet press briefing at the Office of the President in Georgetown. “Their strategic objective, it seems, is Guyana and its future
and it would seem also that they are prepared to destroy Guyana in their efforts to remove the People’s Progressive Party from office. No doubt a reminder of what took place in the 1960s.” Last November 7, Luncheon said, the opposition political parties dealt their latest blow to Guyana’s development, not contented with their earlier “dastardly” assault on the Amaila Falls Hydropower Project. Ignoring its impact on the business and standard of living of Guyanese, he observed that APNU and AFC have taken their “anti-Guyana practices” to unprecedented heights, this time with the rejection of the AML/CFT.
Warnings and disclosures were provided about the consequences and the immediacy of the impact of the failure to enact the AML/CFT. “The Opposition has opted to disregard those warnings and disclosures. They have chosen to disregard the interests repeatedly expressed and displayed by the broadest possible cross-section of Guyanese,” said Luncheon. “Already, they have resorted to the blame game. Their apologists are being recruited to defend the indefensible. We are now told by one Lincoln Lewis that what happened and what will happen is the price that Guyana will have to pay.
“The irony of all this is that up to today, APNU has not provided nor published anywhere their specific amendments to the bill, their specific objections to the current CFATF provisions in the bill, endorsed by CFATF incidentally, or have they submitted additional provisions that exist in anti-money laundering laws in other jurisdictions. “Neither the Parliamentary Special Select Committee, the House, the stakeholders, nor the Guyanese people, were privy to this secret of APNU that one would have to believe was of such profundity that it would have caused them to reject the enactment of the bill,” Luncheon said.

Desperate Philippine typhoon survivors loot, dig up water pipes (Reuters) - Desperation gripped Philippine islands devastated by Typhoon Haiyan as looting turned deadly on Wednesday and survivors panicked over shortages of food, water and medicine, some digging up underground water pipes and smashing them open. Five days after one of the strongest storms ever recorded slammed into cities and towns in the central Philippines, anger and frustration boiled over on Wednesday as essential supplies dwindled. Some survivors scrawled signs reading “Help us”. Controversy also emerged over the death toll. President Benigno Aquino said local officials had overstated the loss of life, saying it was closer to 2,000 or 2,500 than the 10,000 previously estimated. His comments, however, drew skepticism from some aid workers. Some areas appeared to teeter near anarchy amid widespread looting of shops and warehouses for food, water and supplies. There were reports of gunfire between security forces and armed men near a mass grave in worst-hit Tacloban in Leyte province, but city administrator Tecson John Lim denied the clash based on information he had received from the army. Eight people were crushed to death when looters raided
rice stockpiles in a government warehouse in the town of Alangalang, causing a wall to collapse, local authorities said. Other looters still managed to cart away 33,000 bags of rice weighing 50 kg (110 lb) each, said Orlan Calayag, administrator of the state-run grain agency National Food Authority. Warehouses owned by food and drinks company Universal Robina Corp and drug company United Laboratories were ransacked in the storm-hit town of Palo in Leyte, along with a rice mill in Jaro, said Alfred Li, head of the Leyte Chamber of Commerce and Industry. Tacloban city administrator Tecson John Lim said 90 percent of the coastal city of 220,000 people had been destroyed, with only 20 percent of residents receiving aid. Houses were now being looted because warehouses were empty, he said. “The looting is not criminality. It is self-preservation,” Lim told Reuters. Some survivors in Tacloban dug up water pipes in their desperate need for water. “We don’t know if it’s safe. We need to boil it. But at least we have something,” said Christopher Dorano, 38. “There have been a lot of people who have died here.” Resident Rachel Garduce said the aid - 3 kg (6 lb) of rice and 1 liter (34 ounces) of water per household a day - was not

Netanyahu says ‘bad deal’ with Iran could lead to war (Reuters) - ISRAELI Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned on Wednesday that a “bad deal” between global powers and Iran over its nuclear program could lead to war. His government said an offer on the table for what Washington calls a “modest” easing of sanctions would in fact negate up to 40 percent of the sanctions’ impact, reducing pressure on Tehran to give up a nuclear program that the West and Israel believe is aimed at building a bomb. The Jewish state has been lobbying hard against a proposed deal, which would initially offer partial relief from sanctions in return for some steps by Iran to constrain its activities.

Assad’s forces make further gains around Damascus (Reuters) - FORCES loyal to President Bashar al-Assad captured the southern Damascus suburb of Hujaira on Wednesday, part of a broader advance that has brought him major gains south of the capital before proposed international peace talks.

diers in control of otherwise empty streets flanked by shelled buildings and ruins. “Southern districts that have been under rebel control for more than a year are falling one by one,” Damascus-based activist Rami al-Sayyed said, referring to gains by Assad’s forces around the capital. The capture of Hujaira came a day after Islamist rebels in Aleppo declared an emergency and summoned all fighters to

ed States, Britain, France, Germany, Russia and China - broke up without agreement in Geneva on Saturday but are scheduled to resume on November 20 with both sides saying they are optimistic. Western diplomats involved in the process declined comment on the Israeli assessment of how a deal might affect sanctions, saying the terms of any accord were uncertain and still secret. Iran says its nuclear program is peaceful. The United States and the European Union believe it is seeking a nuclear bomb and imposed tough oil and financial sanctions last year that have caused serious economic harm. Addressing Israel’s parliament in Jerusalem, Netanyahu said continued economic pressure on Iran was the best alternative to two other options, which he described as a bad deal and war. “I would go so far as to say that a bad deal could lead to the second, undesired option,” he said, meaning war. Israel, believed to be the sole nuclear power in the Middle East, has long said it reserves the right to use force to prevent Iran from gaining a nuclear weapon. However, many military experts doubt Israel has the capability to destroy Iran’s nuclear sites without U.S. help. Washington says it is important to seek a negotiated solution, especially since Iran elected a relative moderate this year as president, Hassan Rouhani. The United States has maintained that any initial change in sanctions on offer would be modest and reversible, but Israel says the benefits to Iran would be greater than implied and the steps Tehran would take would do little to curb its ambitions. Netanyahu’s point man on Iran policy, Strategic Affairs Minister Yuval Steinitz, said the relief package offered to Iran as part of negotiations could be worth up to $40 billion.

Brazil ex-President Joao Goulart to be exhumed
Grisly end: A fire officer removes the steel rods that flew off a three-tonne truck and pierced the windscreen of a Nissan AD Wagon, killing the driver, Jocelyn Taylor, yesterday afternoon, along Saddle Road, San Juan. — Photo: AYANNA KINSALE
FLYING STEEL KILLS WOMAN By Gyasi Gonzales (Trinidad Express) A woman was killed instantly on We d n e s d a y w h e n f l y i n g lengths of steel penetrated her windscreen and tore off part of her face and head along Saddle Road in San Juan. The victim was identified as Jocelyn Taylor, and several people who were near the scene of the accident said she lived at Sun Valley in Santa Cruz. The police refused to tell reporters what happened or even the woman’s name, despite repeated attempts to get from them the most accurate information possible. People who stood by, however, shared information they had. They said that around 2.30 p.m. Taylor was driving a Nissan AD Wagon, heading south along Saddle Road, when in the vicinity of a Ramesh & Leela express outlet she passed a three-tonne truck that had several lengths of steel rods on its tray. It is not known whether these rods had been secured properly, but the Express saw thin, frayed ropes that may have been used to secure the rods. As the car passed the small truck, some of the rods fell off and landed on the car’s bonnet, then immediately bent backward and pierced the car’s windscreen and tore off part of Taylor’s face. She was killed instantly. The truck driver, in the meantime, stopped. He came out and looked at the woman’s body, according to eyewitnesses. They said the man then bent down, held his head and even banged his head on his truck, screaming out, “I do that boy, I do that boy!” When officers of the San Juan Police Station arrived on the scene, they detained him and, up to last night, he was being questioned about what happened. Members of the public near the scene claimed Taylor was a secretary who worked in the
Santa Cruz RC Church in La Pastora. They also said she used her car to transport children to and from school. As her body remained in the car, her cellular telephone kept ringing, but the police did not answer it. “But that could be her family trying to call her,” said a woman who was standing close by. The police ignored her. San Juan police are continuing investigations.
(BBC News)The remains of a former president of Brazil, Joao Goulart, will be exhumed on Wednesday to establish whether he died of natural causes or was poisoned. Mr Goulart, widely known as Jango, died in 1976 in exile in Argentina. His cause of death was deemed to have been a heart attack. But a former Uruguayan intelligence officer has said Mr Goulart was poisoned by agents working for the region’s military governments. He governed from 1961 to 1964. Forensic scientists commenced work on Wednesday morning, digging a hole in the grave to create an escape for gases which had formed inside the tomb. MYSTERIOUS DEATH Mr Goulart, a progressive leader with left-wing sympathies during the height of the Cold War, was deposed in the 1964 military coup. He fled first to Uruguay, where he settled as a farmer, and in 1973 to Argentina on the
Griffith agrees:
They put their lives on the line every day (Trinidad Express) Minister of National Security Gary Griffith says something has to be done to ensure police officers are rewarded because they put their lives on the line every single day for strangers. “I think it is important in measuring performance to assist in rewarding police officers,” he said to reporters at the launch of the Ministry’s programme “A Country to Defend” at the Hyatt Regency, Port of Spain, Griffith also spoke of the introduction of the National Training Centre which will serve as the “catalyst” for information, to be sent in real time to the relevant agencies to fight criminal activity. President of the Police Association, Sgt Anand Ramesar, in response to William Joseph “Bill” Bratton’s statement that police officers should earn better salaries, told the Express: “It is a validation for the Association, which would have recently submitted its proposal for 2011/ 2013 salary negotiations, but he is not the only one who has recognised the need for proper compensation. The President, Anthony Carmona, would have recently made that acknowledgement and the Acting Commissioner of Police. “So moving forward with the Police Association in making things better, there is recognition that the performance resonates with maintaining the personal wellness of the individual police officers.” He said a study commissioned by the Government in 2009/2010 and carried out by a Canadian company recommended increases of up to 70 per cent increase for police officers.

Brazil’s National Truth Commission, which started work last year, agreed to investigate the claims with the help of the presidency’s human rights commission. “Today we will open a new chapter in the tale of mystery which has surround the death 37 years ago of the former president,” the human rights commission said in a statement. “The exhumation will put an end to the anguish of his family and thousands of Brazilians who have sufficient reason to believe that his death did not occur spontaneously, as stated in the death certificate - which was issued without a prior post mortem examination,” they added. The former president’s grandson, Joao Marcelo Goulart, said it was “a historic moment not just for the family but also for the country and all the relatives of those killed, disappeared, tortured and exiled by the military dictatorship”. Mr Goulart’s remains will be removed from the family pantheon in Sao Borja, a small Brazilian town near the Argentine border.

Da Costa urgently needs a psycho-analysis PERMIT me to refer to Mark Da Costa’s letter in the Stabroek News of Thursday November 7, 2013, under the caption: “Notwithstanding the Amerindian act of 2006, Govt’s paternalistic, patronising treatment of the indigenous peoples is unrestrained.”
EDITORIAL
Urgent need to address increasing violence THE nation has been sent into a state of shock with the senseless killing of five persons as a result of a man going berserk. What may have triggered his “tripping out” is anybody’s guess; and now that he is dead we may never know the answer to that question. But what we do know is that it is a tragedy of immense proportions as we have lost two courageous lawmen, a taxi driver, taxi dispatcher and of course the man who went berserk. This means therefore that the surviving relatives and loved ones would perhaps have to endure life-long trauma and emotional agony. This unfortunate and tragic incident certainly signals that something is radically wrong in our society and that violence and killings have reached an alarming level. Therefore there is a need to urgently arrest and reverse this troubling and worrisome trend before it is too late. Apart from the loss of life, limbs and property, increasing, violent behaviour has the potential of undermining stability and the social fabric of any nation. And there are numerous examples around the world today and in the past which demonstrate this. According to Centres for Disease Control and Prevention, violence causes more than 1.6 million deaths worldwide every year. More than 90% of these occur in low and middle-income countries. Violence is one of the leading causes of death in all parts of the world for persons ages 15 to 44. The World Health Organisation (WHO) has reported that worldwide, an estimated 250 000 homicides occur among youth 10–29 years of age each year. This is 41% of the total number of homicides, globally, each year. Youth homicide rates vary dramatically between and within countries. However, in all countries, young males constitute both the majority of perpetrators and victims of homicide. Rates of youth homicide among females are much lower than rates among males almost everywhere. In the years 1990–2004, rates of youth homicide have increased in many developing countries, and declined in several developed countries. For every young person killed by violence, 20–40 more sustain injuries that require hospital treatment. Non-fatal, violent injuries involve substantially fewer firearm attacks than fatal assaults and involve a greater use of fists, feet, knives and clubs. Sexual violence also affects a significant proportion of youth. For example, 3–24% of women surveyed in the WHO Multi-country study on women’s health and domestic violence, report that their first sexual experience was forced. Physical fighting and bullying are also common among young people. A study of 40 developing countries showed that exposure to bullying ranged from 8.6–45.2% in boys and from 4.8–35.8% in girls. Youth homicide and non-fatal violence not only contribute greatly to the global burden of premature death, injury and disability, but also have a serious, often life-long impact on a person’s psychological and social functioning. This can affect victims’ families, friends and communities. Youth violence
I wish to state the following in relation to this letter: 1. Guyana’s first peoples, the indigenous peoples are currently enjoying their fundamental rights and their right to self-determination under the Amerindian Act 2006. Any person claiming that this is not so is simply being a mischief maker and a carrier of misleading information. Da Costa is such a person and an ignoramus at that. 2. Is Mark Da Costa an indigenous person? If he is, then his European ancestry as well played a role in the exploitation of indigenous peoples some 200 years before independence, since “Da Costa” is a European surname. So Guyana’s indigenous peoples do not need “Johnny– come-lately Europeans” like Mark da Costa to mislead them about their rights. 3. Da Costa claims in his letter that “indigenous Guyanese do not need their identity certified by the Minister of Amerindian Affairs who represents the state of Guyana”. This is absolutely misleading, since no section of the Amerindian Act 2006 provides this power to the minister. Da Costa was apparently reading the old Amerindian chapter 29:01 instead of the new Amerindian Act 2006.But this is disgraceful on the part of Da Costa who merely wants to score cheap political points on the status quo of Guyana’s indigenous peoples which he has failed to score. 4. The Amerindian Act 2006 is not “Melinda Janki’s laws”, neither is it a “tool of oppression and control” as ridiculously claimed by Da Costa in his letter. Janki was one of two legal advisers who drafted the Amerindian Act 2006, based upon the recommendations made by the indigenous communities of Guyana during the three years of intensive consultations for a new Amerindian Act. So the provisions contained in the Amerindian Act 2006 are the wishes of Guyana’s indigenous peoples and not Melinda Janki. Further, Guyana’s indigenous peoples would never have recommended an Amerindian act to be a tool for their “oppression and control.” Guyana’s Low Carbon Development Strategy (LCDS) consultations were credible, transparent and inclusive. The majority of the Amerindian communities in Guyana fully support Guyana’s LCDS. At the Na-
Firearm licences should be reviewed
I WISH to once again send out a call to the Ministry of Home Affairs along with the Guyana Police Force to review the licences of firearm owners. I made this call five years ago and to date have not seen any intervention in this regard. I know of several licensed firearm owners who brandish their weapons in public places and threaten people to shoot them when involved in arguments. Some licensed owners are also handicapped or either too old to carry a firearm. I do really think that one must pass a medical check up to become the owner of a licensed firearm. The same should be done for drivers’ licences. There are too many drinking and speeding on the major roadways of Guyana. Lots of the drivers are either too young or acquire their licences through questionable means. I am looking forward for some changes for a better year ahead. Good Luck. ANDRIEKO BASIR adds greatly to the costs of health, welfare and criminal justice services; reduces productivity; decreases the value of property; and generally undermines the fabric of society. Violence breeds violence and it should be discouraged and curbed whenever and wherever it raises its ugly head. The goal of every society should be to strive towards becoming a violence-free one because only in peace and harmony can real progress be achieved. In fostering that goal, we need to work collectively with a deep sense of commitment at all levels of society and among every community and groups of people.
tional Toshaos Council (NTC) conferences all resolutions relating to Guyana’s LCDS were passed by the Toshaos since the launch of the strategy in June 2009. So the matter of Free, Prior and Informed Consent (FPIC) is a non-issue. The few Toshaos who did not support the resolutions did so on the basis of the political opposition. 5. Da costa said in his letter that “Ms Janki acknowledges that indigenous Guyanese have no rights to minerals on their titled lands.” Da Costa is lying on Ms. Janki here. What Ms. Janki might have said is that no Guyanese and non-Guyanese can claim ownership of minerals, since all minerals are the absolute property of the state (sections 6&9 of the mining act). But while indigenous Guyanese do not have the right of mineral ownership, they have the right to the minerals through mining activities on their village lands which they are currently doing. In fact, section 48 of the Amerindian Act 2006 provides Amerindian villages with the power to manage minerals found in their village lands and to give permission if the village consents to any miner who wants to conduct mining activities on village lands in return for a tribute of at least 7% of the value of any minerals obtained from village lands (section 51(1) of Am. Act 2006). Some villages however have bargained for a tribute of more than 7% which is permitted based on the “at least” phase. 6. Twenty per cent of the royalties from mining activities is transferred to the Amerindian Development Fund by the GGMC. This fund, which is well managed and accounted for is used by the Ministry of Amerindian Affairs for Amerindian community development and to provide other forms of assistance. Da costa in his letter said that the fund is not properly accounted for by the Government. Can Da costa provide solid evidence for his claims? 7. But Da costa quite rightly said, “Who feels it knows”. Da costa and his ilk are currently feeling the hurt when over 170 toshaos bluntly ignored their political protest while the NTC conference sessions were in progress last month. The toshaos showed Dacosta and his APA that they were strong and capable enough to represent themselves before the President of Guyana and his Government ministers and that the APA’s political Protest was a waste of time and ended up in miserable failure. 8. Finally Mr editor, Da Costa’s letter in the Stabroek News is a reflection of a person that has an identity problem and worst of all, it is contaminated with lies wickedly designed to mislead the reading public about the situation of Guyana’s indigenous peoples. 9. Da Costa urgently needs a psycho-analysis. PETER PERSAUD
Call for end to corporal punishment welcomed IT was reported in the media that a welfare organisation says no to corporal punishment. Well, it’s only now these people are waking up to the harsh realities of life when it comes to violence on children in our schools. For years now the ordinary man had been calling for the legal authority to abolish this so-called “corporal punishment”, but it kept falling on deaf ears. I have been saying for years now in this very medium that “corporal punishment” is nothing but “assault” on innocent, defenceless children who cannot defend themselves against adults. Take a survey by asking kids who were beaten in school by their teachers if they fear going back to that teacher. The answer will be a resounding “NO” It is what it is and its child abuse. There are many teachers who have other problems on their minds only to come to school and take it out on innocent children. I have seen it before and wrote about it before. As a student I was beaten by a teacher just because he wanted to have a word with my girlfriend after classes were over. Again, I will repeat that was the last day of my school days because I did not take that beating and sit and cry. I defended myself. Put a stop to adult assault on innocent children now, not next week next month next year- do it now. T. KING

CONTRARY to the much-publicised claim, even by the police and sections of the media, that businessman Deryck Kanhai monitored the movement of the police around the building with the use of his closed circuit television cameras while in the middle or upper flat of his three-storeyed building, the fact is that he did not. Yesterday the Guyana Chronicle revisited the Middle and East Streets location. That junction was the centre of firepower drama for more than three hours on Tuesday as the businessman battled the police during a standoff after he gunned down two civilians and killed two police officers during the exchange of fire. During that visit, the Guyana Chronicle was informed that the now dead businessman was in the lower flat of the building which houses a beauty salon. It was also pointed out that the man shot at the police even as the door to the salon was wide open. The Guyana Chronicle was granted a walk-through of the middle flat of the building which is divided into two sections, one occupied by Deryck Kanhai and the other by his brother. While in the middle flat of the building a relative showed this reporter the extent of the damage to both of the apartments with shattered glass, televisions, wall pictures, ceiling, house hold appliances, home furnishing and the two 40” monitors which are usually used to monitor the CCTV cameras around the building. These were located in Deryck’s apartment and to which he had no access during the shootout on Tuesday. The relative would not allow any entry into the man’s bedroom saying that it was off limits for the moment. This publication was unable to gather from family members what were some of the items within that room and what the extent of the damage was. A walk through of the lower flat of the building was granted to this publication also. That section of the building told a story of a gun battle that raged for hours. There was a wall that separated the salon from the lower flat of the man’s apartment which also has a stairs leading to the upper flat of the gunman’s apartment. There was a hole in that wall that was created by the police after they made another hole in the façade of the building next to the front door that leads to the man’s apartment. Those holes were to gain access to the salon since entering from the front door was very risky. As the police made the holes and began closing in on the gunman, he retreated to an isolated section of the salon and closed an inner door. In that little enclosed room, there were more than one hundred bullet holes which the police labelled, beginning with the number one and counting. Yesterday, the proprietor of the salon told this newspaper that she was in the salon attending to a customer when she heard gunshots and on peering out she saw the businessman with his gun in hand. She said that her initial thought was that the man was being attacked by bandits and she secured herself in a corner of the shop, but quickly removed herself after realising that she was seeking coverage from a wall which can be penetrated by bullets. She said that she and her customer then ran into the washroom area of the salon and as they hid there, she saw the businessman peering in at them. She said that by that time she realised that it was the man who was doing the shooting. The woman said that when she looked at the man’s face she saw anger and frustration and quickly ran out of the salon; and it was seconds after running out of the business without locking the door that the man ran around from the back of the building and entered the salon without closing the door behind him. There were no television monitors in the salon that could have been used to monitor the CCTV cameras which were around the building. Those monitors were fitted in the man’s apartment in the upper flat. This publication was informed that the police took away the firearm of the man’s brother, four I Pads, one unopened GPS, three cellular phones, gold jewellery, cash and ammunition from the middle flat. Yesterday the man’s brother apologized to the people of Guyana and said that he was very upset at the actions of his brother because the people he shot were all innocent. The Guyana Chronicle was also reliably informed yesterday that the man was in the habit of purchasing ammunition and stockpiling it at his home.

Three charged with $93M Port Kaituma heist … made oral and written confessions
THREE men appeared before Chief Magistrate, Priya Sewnarine-Beharry yesterday, charged with the $93M heist committed on El Dorado Gold Trading Operations at Port Kaituma, North West District, last week. Licensed money lender and farmer Amirullah Kuturatullah also called ‘Iron Roller’, 46, of Lot 23 Number Two and Anil Dairam, 25, a large scale farmer, also of Number Two Settlement, Blairmont, West Bank Berbice and Kenneth Garraway, of Lot 30 Charity, Essequibo Coast, were not required to plead to the indictable charge. Particulars of the offence said, on Friday, November 8, at Port Kaituma, they stole 96 ounces of gold valued $22M and $71M cash, making a total of $93M, property of Tamesh Jagmohan. Kuturatullah was also charged with possession 16 gold bars and a quantity of forged $100 and $50 Barbados currency notes in his ceiling, on Sunday, November 10, at the Number Two Settlement, Blairmont house. Attorney-at-law, Mr. Glenn Hanoman, prosecuting, requested that the matter remain indictable at this stage. He told the court that the virtual complainant operates a business trading and purchasing raw gold which he is licensed to do and the allegation is that the General Manager of the company (no name stated) orchestrated the crime that appeared to be a robbery. Hanoman said he procured Kuturatullah and Dairam, whom he knew previously, to travel from Berbice to Port Kaituma with Garraway in his boat a few days before the robbery. He added that one of the principal offenders is not yet charged. Hanoman said the three accused collected all the gold and cash and returned by boat to Charity and the Berbicians went back to their homes. He said the GM confessed to his involvement in the crime at an early stage and took the police to the house of the numbers one and two accused, where millions of dollars in money and several ounces of gold bars were found. The prosecutor said that the person was employed with the company sometime prior to the offence being committed and the number two hid under the bed during that time and pounced on a worker and tied him up. They then made good their escape and headed to Charity.
Accused Amirullah Kuturatullah also called ‘Iron Roller’
WRITTEN CONFESSIONS He said oral and written confessions were taken from all the accused, a quantity of gold and money was also recovered from them, as they all cooperated with the police in the investigation. Hanoman said others are likely to be charged and taken to court for the offence and, although, violence has been used in the commission, persons have not been charged for it. Other articles believed to have been stolen were found, as well as some other property, the origin of which the police are trying to ascertain. The possibility that the same group may be involved in a past robbery and in particular one robbery/murder that occurred in the
Accused Anil same office, involving the same employee a few years ago, is being investigated, Hanoman said. He added that permission has been granted for the principal suspect to remain in police custody so that he may be charged along with others.
Venezuelan political opposition paying attention to Eteringbang – local intelligence service
By Telesha Ramnarine GUYANA’s intelligence community has noted the recent attention being paid by the political opposition in Venezuela to Eteringbang and the bordering Guyanese communities. “This interest is in the context of their attitude to Guyana’s Essequibo,” said Secretary to the Cabinet, Dr Roger Luncheon yesterday. He was speaking at his regular post-Cabinet press briefing at the Office of the President in Georgetown. According to their published plans, Luncheon said their members, particularly their legislators, have undertaken to visit and have
been visiting Eteringbang, accompanied by elements of the Venezuelan paramilitary establishment. “Our joint services detachments in the location have been made aware of these planned visits and they have been ordered to remain vigilant in the context of such visits.” Meanwhile, legislators who have been identified from opposition parties in Venezuela have had at least one visit so far to the area that has been documented by Guyana’s security and intelligence services. “It has been a visit that accords with all of the rules and regulations that govern the visit and movement across the borders,” Luncheon noted.
Accused Kenneth Garraway Hanoman mentioned that approximately $5.5M was given to the number three accused as part of the proceeds and he took the police to his home and pointed out a person who kept in excess of $4M cash in a bag. The prosecutor objected to bail for the trio, stating that all three accused may pose as flight risks and might communicate and tamper with other witnesses if granted pre-trial liberty. He added that more time is needed for the investigation to be completed, since police from Port Kaituma have been compromised, causing the delay to charge. Hanoman said, too, that it is hoped to have this trial in Georgetown, because all the investigators are stationed there and are seeking to expedite this matter. Additional charges are expected to be laid and investigations are ongoing. Attorney-at-law, Mr. Nigel Hughes, who represented Garraway, argued that the latter is a boat captain, transporting passengers from Port Kaituma to Charity and is unclear of his involvement in the actual robbery as his job is a boat operator. Counsel argued that it is impossible to isolate them at this time because even persons in prison can contact others outside, such as attorneys, family members and friends. BAILABLE OFFENCE Other attorney-at-law, Mr. Tejnarine Ramroop, for Kuturatullah and Dairam, said the duo are being charged with simple larceny, which is a bailable offence and bail should not be used as form of punishment. Ramroop said Kuturatullah was never convicted except being charged for a minor traffic offence and, in relation to what the prosecutor said, about his clients tampering with witnesses, he is fearful for them remaining in custody because they may be tortured. He claimed the prosecution does not have evidence to prove that his client will flee the jurisdiction and he is willing to lodge his passport until the trial is finished. Hanoman asked that all the accused get medical attention from a doctor if they have been tortured. Hughes intervened to state: “If you water board or black bag someone, it will leave no tangible identification of torturing and neither of these forms of torture would be identified by a medical doctor.” The prosecutor argued that, through psychiatric evaluation, these inflictions can be indentified and the defence lawyers’ application, for their clients to be psychiatrically evaluated by a professional, was granted. However, bail was refused and all three accused were remanded to prison until November 22.

Police faced crowd control problem
9
... during Tuesday shootout
CROWD control was a problem for the police on Tuesday during the shootout between them and berserk businessman Deryck Kanhai in Middle Street, Georgetown. As rapid gunshots rang out shortly after 13:00 hrs, people, instead of scurrying for cover, ran towards the scene by the dozens. They continued to fill the nearby streets although there was a dangerous stand-off involving members of the Guyana Police Force (GPF) and the civilian shooter. It appeared as though people were not fearful for their lives as they remained in the vicinity even as police and the lone gunman traded bullets for more than two hours. Despite police warnings to retreat and allow them to handle the situation, many people reacted rudely and disrespectfully, heckling the ranks loudly. Dozens of teenagers and adults refused to leave the area and continued to disregard the police pleas for them to disperse. Even after the gunfire ceased, they found innovative ways to get a better glimpse of the dead and injured, some climbing onto parked vehicles while others took to rooftops of nearby buildings and yet more just stood around. LARGE THRONG Police tried to keep the large throng at bay and managed, after sometime, to set up barricades in an effort to get some semblance of order. The groups did not budge, though, and continued to taunt the ranks trying to get them away from the location. Media operatives had the devil’s own job of getting to take pictures while securing themselves from gunshots. However, others with cameras threw caution to the wind as they snapped photos from their cell phones at the corners of Middle and East Streets. Eventually, the police secured the crime scene and were able to carry out their investigations, while some cried openly for their two colleagues killed in the confrontation.
The crowd of onlookers at the Tuesday shootout
Home Affairs Ministry, APNU offer condolences over tragic deaths By Michel Outridge THE Ministry of Home Affairs (MOHA) yesterday expressed its deep sadness over the shooting incident that occurred on Tuesday at Middle and East Streets, Georgetown, which resulted in the death of five persons, including two policemen and the alleged shooter. The shooting incident that occurred on 12th November, 2013 was most unfortunate, the Home Affairs Ministry stated. The MOHA also extended its condolences to the relatives of the cops who lost their lives in the line of duty and the two civilians who were brutally murdered. This incident reinforces the contention of this ministry that there is a dire need for well-trained specialised units in the Guyana Police Force to respond to similar types of incidents. The MOHA said: “We are now more than committed to ensure that the SWAT team is established in the Force within the time frame stipulated.” The MOHA however, commends the efforts that were made by
An apology
IN our yesterday’s edition, in the article: “Businessman kills two policemen, two civilians before he’s shot dead”, we inadvertently stated that the businessman might have had connections to the El Dorado Mining Company which was recently robbed. We wish to retract this statement and apologise to the management of the El Dorado Mining Company for any inconvenience caused
the brave ranks who responded to the incident. APNU Meanwhile, A Partnership for National Unity (APNU) strongly condemns the recent incidence of violence and calls on those responsible for public safety to take all necessary steps to put an end to this upsurge of violent crime that present a clear and present danger to law and order in civil society.
APNU extends its sincere sympathy to the relatives and friends of all who lost their lives in the Middle Street killings and the brutal murder yesterday in West Ruimveldt. APNU takes this opportunity to restate our position that the safety and security of citizens under the current leadership of the Minster of Home Affairs is severely compromised. APNU remains committed to working with all the relevant government agencies to ensure that all Guyanese can enjoy a good life in safe and secure communities.
CABINET OKs $176M contract for Linden-Lethem roadway rehab By Telesha Ramnarine CABINET last Tuesday granted it’s no objection to a contract worth over $176M for the rehabilitation and maintenance of the Linden-Lethem roadway, Secretary to the Cabinet, Dr Roger Luncheon said yesterday. Luncheon, also Head of the Presidential Secretariat, was speaking at his weekly post-Cabinet press briefing at the Office of the President in Georgetown. Work to maintain the 300-odd miles roadway in good condition has been ongoing in recent months. Naeem Mohamed, Hinterland Roads Engineer in the Ministry of Public Works, recently said that overall, the Linden-Lethem roadway is in good shape and the road at present is quite traversable. Mohamed said emergency works at ‘Mile 40’on the road to Mabura, Region 10 (Upper Demerara/Upper Berbice) on a
bridge at Mango Tree in the Iwokrama concession in Region 8 (Potaro/Siparuni); and on another bridge at Aranaputa in Region 9 (Upper Takutu/Upper Essequibo) had been completed at a cost of $10M with minimal disruption of traffic along the roadway. He disclosed, too, that the Moco Moco Bridge along the Culvert City trail in Region 9, which had collapsed earlier this year had been repaired at a cost of $12.5M and access to the Deep South Rupununi is once again hassle-free. Five log bridges along the Linden-Lethem road between Siparuni Junction and Kurupukari, which are said to be in a critical condition, are to be repaired soon. A contract valued at $16M has been awarded to Mekdeci Machinery and Construction (MMC) for the execution of these works.

Sabha says heartfelt thanks following Diwali celebrations PRESIDENT of the Guyana Hindu Dharmic Sabha, Dr. Vindhya Vasini Persaud, has expressed her heartfelt thanks to the thousands who came out to view the Sabha’s countrywide motorcades. Motorcades were held in all of the Sabha’s eight Praant - Upper Corentyne, Central Corentyne, East Berbice, West Berbice, East Coast Demerara, East Bank Demerara, West Coast Demerara and Essequibo. According to a press release from the President of the Sabha, she is touched by the outpouring of support for their efforts to sustain an almost 40-year tradition started by Pt. Reepu Daman Persaud. She also expressed her appreciation to the hundreds who participated in creating floats for the motorcades around the country and recognized the growing numbers of youths who engaged in the exercise. Children and young people beautifully adorned sat patiently on the floats and earned the admiration of all who viewed the spectacular floats. The Sabha wishes to encourage more participation next year as the organisation celebrates its 40th anniversary, especially from the business community and corporate world. The Sabha is proud that Guyana hosts the only motorcade in the Caribbean and is the genesis of those started in North America. Our motorcades were featured on CNN as part of a feature on notable DiDr Vindhya Persaud wali celebrations around the world. DISRUPTIONS While the Sabha is pleased with the growth of Diwali in Guyana and the participation in the festival by Guyanese of all walks of life, the President of the Sabha was vociferous in her condemnation of the alarming rise of disruptions of Diwali Pujas, satsangh and lighting of diyas experienced by families and mandirs in several communities
by the wanton throwing of squibs and fire crackers. She was emphatic that squibs and firecrackers have no place in the celebration of Diwali and neither does the sale and consumption of alcohol close to temples and religious premises. The wanton disregard for people, their properties, animals and celebrations by those who purchase and use these dangerous items should be condemned. It is illegal and poses a noise nuisance and a danger to those they are thrown at and is disrespectful in the extreme to those engaging in the observance of their festivals.

CARICOM in midst of ‘major reform’ process - LaRocque By Vanessa Narine THE Caribbean Community (CARICOM) is in the middle of a “major reform” process, a three-year undertaking, according to Secretary-General, Ambassador Irwin LaRocque. He was speaking on Tuesday at the signing of the revised UNESCO-CARICOM Memorandum of Understanding and meeting of UNESCO’s Director-General Irina Bokova and CARICOM delegations to the Thirty-Seventh UNESCO General Conference in Paris, France. LaRocque said: “As CARICOM celebrates its 40th year of regional integration it is in the midst of a major reform process as we chart a new course for the Community, seeking increased relevance and greater efficiency. This process includes the development of a Strategic Plan and the restructuring of the CARICOM Secretariat and the Community’s Institutions.” The Secretary-General noted that CARICOM Member States face a myriad of challenges, particularly in the social sector, but have still recorded many successes. LaRocque, speaking recently on the vision for CARICOM’s future in Trinidad and Tobago, maintained that instituting change is never easy and is more difficult if it is attempted in the face of entrenched attitudes and structures. However, he noted that the CARICOM’s reform process encompasses every facet of its operations. The Secretary General said: “In short we are changing the way we do business. Heads of Government agreed in March 2012 that since ‘form followed function’, it was necessary to re-examine the future direction of the Community and the arrangements for carrying this forward. “This includes the role and function of the CARICOM Secretariat and the institutions of the Community. “A Change Facilitation Team has been recruited to assist me with this process of change. The team is currently undertaking consultations in Member States on the first ever Strategic Plan for the Community. “These country consultations provide an opportunity for nationals of each Member State and Associate Member to influence the strategic direction of the Community, their Community, our Community.” The five-year Strategic Plan, according to him, will set out a common vision and identify priority areas of focus over the period. Critically, the reform is also expected to address issues of implementability, including the roles and responsibilities of all participants in the Community architecture: namely the Conference of Heads of Government; the Ministerial Councils; the bodies such as the Committee of Central Bank Governors and the Budget Committee; the CARICOM Secretariat; and the institutions; as well as issues of
governance, institutional and operational arrangements and monitoring and evaluation mechanisms. The CARICOM Head contends that a major realisation in going forward is that the current and future situation demands that “we change our modus operandi and crucially the way we think” about integration. “Our capacity to respond to the various challenges and to exploit such opportunities as they may bring, depend in significant measure, on the extent to which our arrangements can be strengthened,” he said. CONSULTATIONS LaRocque noted that the consultations on the Strategic Plan are not starting with a blank slate; rather they are taking from approved policies and programmes as a starting point. The policies include: the 2007 Single Development Vision; the Strategic Plan for Regional Economic Development, on which there was close collaboration between the Secretariat and UWI; the priorities articulated by Heads of Government themselves at their retreat held in Guyana in May 2011; and approved policies and action plans in a range of areas, such as agriculture, energy, industry, security, health, youth, ICT and climate change, to name a few. These policies and programmes are then taken in the context of the rapidly changing global environment that impacts our Member States, to chart the way forward. As at the start of October, eight consultations were completed. The Secretary General stated that the common themes emerging include: the need to address economic recovery and growth as a core strategy over the next five years; the need to strengthen governance and decision-making arrangements, beginning with the Heads of Government Conference, to secure a more effective Community; the need to solve the challenges with inter-regional transport, the free movement of persons including hassle free travel, as critical success factors for regional integration; the need to secure the Region’s future through targeted interventions in agriculture for food security, energy security, education, health and ICT; the need to re-ignite the fire of regionalism among our Caribbean people, through shared understanding and building of a sense of Community; the need to communicate fully and consistently with the people on the issues of integration; and the need to embrace and optimise the diversity of the people and Member States that lend to our strength as a unified Region. “It is clear from the consultations, that the people of CARICOM remain committed to realising the potential of our integration movement, our single but diversified space, and even eventually our “United States of the Caribbean” as it has been described in some of the consultations,” he said.
LaRocque added that on the basis of the Strategic Plan, the review and restructuring of the Secretariat, and indeed organs and institutions of CARICOM, will be addressed to enable the construct to deliver in a much more focused and effective manner to the people of the Community. VISION Expounding on the vision for CARICOM’s future, he said: “It would be a Community in which all are involved. There would be a system of meaningful consultations from which a free flow of ideas emanate, allowing for the distillation of the best and most practical. This would help to capture the imagination and interest of all and allow the people to seize a stake in the integration process - allowing for the sense of being Caribbean to take precedence over all else. It would also lead to more efficient implementation of decisions having had the benefit of the widest possible input. “It would be a Community in which regional plans and policies are harmonised with national plans and policies. The national would become regional and the regional national. “We would have deepened the integration process, with a single economic space a reality, and a closer convergence of economic policies.” He maintained that the focus is the creation of a Caribbean Community in which the people have “tangible proof that integration is working for them” and that their domestic space extends from Belize in the west to Barbados in the east, from Suriname in the south to The Bahamas in the north and all in between. “This would mean being able to travel freely, change their currency and have the families who move, treated to all intents and purposes, as citizens of their adopted country,” LaRocque said. He added that his vision for CARICOM will see goals achieved from frank discussions and resolution of concerns; foreign policy co-ordination strengthened as a means of achieving our development goals; the embrace of the CCJ by all Member States, in both its jurisdictions, as a step towards completing the circle of sovereignty for the Region; a single CARICOM ICT space, in which a telephone call from Port of Spain to Kingston is a local call and broadband is ubiquitous and easily accessible to all; and the achievement of sustainable growth and development, where there is confidence and belief in where we can go, and what we can achieve together, where its institutions are seen as reliant and integral to achieving our goal of a Community for all. “I intend to deliver a Secretariat that is strategic in outlook and efficient, effective and responsive in serving the needs of its Member States and providing leadership to the integration arrangements,” LaRocque assured.

At IICA workshop…
Costs underscored as critical elements for agricultural development By Clifford Stanley MINISTER of Agriculture, Dr. Leslie Ramsammy said Tuesday that cost factors and cost of production (COP) exercises are critical elements for the development of the sector as a business. He said generally in Guyana, agriculture does not have a history of being seen as a business, but the time has come for all and sundry to recognise it for what it is. “It is a business and the people engaged in agriculture as a commercial activity are entrepreneurs,” he posited. The minister said farmers today who produce for the commercial market are entrepreneurs, he reiterated, underlining that fact. He added: “Once we accept this fact, then we must also accept that cost factors and the cost of production exercise is a critical component of the agriculture business whether we are rice farmers, sugar cane farmers, in cash crops, or in aquaculture. Whatever we do, we must be clear on the cost of production because we are doing this as a business and we are doing it to generate a profit like any other business.” Ramsammy made the remarks while declaring open a one-day COP workshop hosted by the Guyana Office of the Inter-American Institute for Cooperation on Agriculture (IICA) at the Regency Hotel in Georgetown. The main resource person at the forum was Mr. Edric Harry, Policy Analyst and Planning Specialist from the IICA Office in
Trinidad and Tobago.
it has to be a continuing exercise.”
INCLUDED PRODUCERS The participants included producers of both crops and livestock, representatives of the Ministry of Agriculture and research and extension officials who provide advisory services to farmers and agro-processors. The objective of the seminar was to provide a framework for improving record keeping, farm management and policy and investment decision making in the agriculture sector. Those taking part were welcomed by IICA Representative in Guyana Mr. Wilmot Garnett, who said the event was indicative of IICA’s commitment to empower them with the knowledge essential for profit-driven agriculture. He said that it was further proof of IICA’s commitment, in terms of horizontal cooperation and partnerships with relevant stakeholders in the agriculture sector. In his opening remarks, Minister Ramsammy emphasised that the purpose was to enable agricultural producers to recognise the cost factors in establishing their business, so that a margin of profit can be surmised. “When we have routine cost-of-production modules, it will help us, as individuals, groups, companies and as a country to measure the impact of technology, better farming techniques of introducing efficiency into our business,” he posited. He added: “This workshop is not meant to be a one-stop event;
COP MODELS Ramsammy urged the participants to work with IICA and other partners to develop COP models that can be introduced as software programmes for farming entrepreneurs and their families. He said:”This is one example of innovation in agriculture. I would hope that, not long from now, we can say this is our COP model for rice; this is our COP model for the production of pumpkins, for butternut squash.” He challenged those involved to work along with IICA to stage a conference on COP, where results on how the models work are presented, so that Guyanese producers of both crops and livestock can benefit. Those in attendance received information on the COP model, its benefits and the data requirements. They also benefited from a demonstration on the use of the model on a crop and a livestock farming activity and participated in group excercises in which they input data, simulated proposed policy impacts and discussed and recommended what should be done as follow-up actions. Sustainable Rural Development Specialist in IICA’s Guyana Office, Mr. Arnold De Mendonca, who chaired the sessions, said that a pilot project at a farm location was one possible follow-up action that will be considered to further popularise the COP concept.
4th Meeting of CBSI Commission set for Monday and Tuesday in Guyana THE Government of Guyana, in collaboration with the Government of the USA, the CARICOM Secretariat and the CARICOM Implementation Agency for Crime and Security (IMPACS) will be hosting the 4th Meeting of the Caribbean Basin Security Initiative Commission on November 18 and 19, 2013. The meeting will be held at the International Conference Centre (GICC), Liliendaal, Greater Georgetown. The Caribbean Security Initiative (CBSI) was conceptualized at a meeting in April 2009 in Trinidad and Tobago by US President Mr. Barack Obama at the 5th Summit of the Americas where a multimillion dollar package of support was announced by the USA to aid countries in the Caribbean Region to address crime and security in a holistic manner. The joint Caribbean United States Framework for the Security Cooperation Engagement is based on three pillars: The Caribbean US Security Cooperation Dialogue at which meetings are held at least once per year at the Ministerial Level; The Caribbean US Security Cooperation Commission which is responsible for Monitoring the implementation of projects and related issues; and Ad Hoc Technical Working Groups that are required to meet as required. At the meeting to be held in Guyana on November 18 and 19, representatives of the United States, The Dominican Republic, CARICOM countries and other partners will be present. At the sessions, the programmes that were implemented under the initiative will be evaluated and decisions relating to future projects will be taken. The Security Cooperation Initiative between the USA, CARICOM countries and The Dominican Republic is aimed at building the capacity of the law enforcement agencies as well as focusing on initiatives targeting youths at risk. Guyana hosted a similar event in October 2011. (Michel Outridge)

Murder accused freed in 2012 shot dead
RELATIVES of Rayburn Harvey, 29, of Lot 156 Non Pareil Street, Albouystown, Georgetown, who was gunned down on Tuesday night, said he had an old disagreement with a known man. The victim had been on his way home from the wake of a relative, his aunt, Oneta Harvey, with whom he resided, told the
Guyana Chronicle. She said she last saw him at the house where the wake was being held, for her reputed husband, at Rasville, another city ward. She added that prior to his going there, he had been sitting in front of their house by the roadside stand she operates drinking Guinness
with some friends from the neighbourhood. This newspaper was told that Harvey had a feud with a man sometime ago and he was chopped to the face and injured and they are of the view that same man may be responsible for his murder. The Albouystown relatives were awaiting the arrival of his
Defendant remanded on cocaine-trafficking charge
TREVOR Garraway, of Lot 28 Leopold and Cross Streets, Georgetown, was remanded to prison Tuesday , on a narcotic-trafficking charge. Before Magistrate Judy Latchman, the 37-year-old defendant pleaded not guilty to the offence, particulars of which said, on Monday, November 11, at Princes and Lombard Streets, also in the city, he was in possession of 6.2 grammes of cocaine for the purpose. Police Sergeant Vishnu Hunt, prosecuting, told the Court, that day around 15:30 hrs, ranks on mobile patrol were in the vicinity of Princes and Lombard Streets when they observed the defendant acting in a suspicious manner. With Garraway’s permission, a search was conducted on his person and a white paper parcel was found in his left side shirt pocket. When opened in his presence, the prosecutor said the packet contained 54 pieces of a creamish rock-like substance suspected to be cocaine and the defendant accepted ownership, claiming that he bought it from a man in Essequibo for his own smoking purpose. The prosecutor successfully objected to bail, stating that the defendant did not provide the court with any special reason why he should be granted pre-trial liberty. Garraway claimed he is a father of two and walks and sells for his living. However, he will make his next appearance before Chief Magistrate Priya Sewnarine-Beharry on November 27.
Two Venezuelan women fined for illegal entry TWO Venezuelans, Erica Lance, 25 and Maryann Gonsalves, 26, appeared before Magistrate Judy Latchman Tuesday , on separate charges of illegal entry to Guyana. Through an interpreter, both of them pleaded guilty to the offence, particulars of which said, on Friday, November 8, in the North West District, they entered Guyana by sea and disembarked without the consent of an immigration officer. Police Sergeant Vishnu Hunt, prosecuting, told the Court, on that day, Lance and Gonsalves came by sea on a small boat at Mabaruma, which is a port of entry but did not present themselves to immigration. Lance claimed she has one son with her common-law spouse in Guyana and came to see the child. They were each ordered to pay fines of $30,000 with the alternative of 12 months imprisonment and be deported immediately after the fine is paid.
mother, who lives on the West Coast of Demerara and said that Harvey was the father of a one month old baby. Police reported that, about 23:45 hrs on November 12, Harvey was on the roadway at Walker Terrace, East La Penitence, when a man rode up on a motorcycle and discharged several shots at him and escaped. Harvey was struck about his body and taken to the Georgetown Public Hospital (GPHP) where he succumbed to his injuries. Investigations into his killing are in progress.
GUNNING DOWN Harvey was freed of murder by a High Court in March 2012 when he had been accused of gunning down Samantha Belle, on March 18, 2006 along Vlissengen Road in the vicinity of St. Sidwell’s School. The case was thrown out because of inconsistencies between a witness statement and evidence in the courtroom. Meanwhile, in a separate incident, about 00:10 hrs yesterday, Patrick Forbes, 36, of Lot 186 Lance Gibbs Street, was among a group of persons on Orange Walk, Bourda,
also in Georgetown, when shots were discharged in their direction. Forbes was wounded in his abdomen and right thigh and has been admitted to the Balwant Singh Hospital. Later yesterday, a relative said his condition is critical but stable but was clueless as to why he had been shot. Crime Chief Seelall Persaud said a group of men were in a shop playing dominoes and when Forbes got up he was shot multiple times. Persons heard the shots but did not see the shooter and that incident is also being investigated.

Husband who drank poison after torching house laid to rest in Essequibo By Michel Outridge THE man who torched his reputed wife’s house last Saturday at Industry, East Coast Demerara, before committing suicide, was laid to rest in his hometown of Essequibo Tuesday. Vinod Narine, 55, torched his reputed wife’s leaving six others homeless, before taking his own life by ingesting a poisonous substance. Narine succumbed several hours after he was rushed to
the hospital on Saturday after he reportedly drank a potion he concocted with rat poison and gramoxone, a herbicide. He was under police guard after he was found lying in a semi-conscious state on a dam, a short distance from his residence. It was reported that shortly before 11:00 hrs on Saturday, Narine, a taxi driver/interior worker, used an accelerant and started a fire at the Fourth Street, Industry Sideline Dam
home while the other occupants were out. Within minutes the two-storeyed building which housed two families was reduced to a pile of rubble, causing millions of dollars in losses. The upper flat was occupied by the owner, Nadira Gossai, a domestic worker, her two children and Narine and the lower flat was rented by Natasha Chintaman and her husband and a son. The eight-year-old rela-
tionship between Gossai and Narine was marred by loud fights and quarrels which usually went late into the night, much to the annoyance of neighbours. Some neighbours recall not having a full night’s sleep
since the couple moved to the location and recently, after the couple would imbibe alcohol together there was certain to be a ruckus after. The incident was not surprising to neighbours who said that Narine had often
threatened to burn the house. However, residents praised the efforts of several villagers and firefighters, who responded to the scene of the fire and doused the flames which had threatened to consume nearby houses.

FFP lauded for continuing help to Amerindian commnunitie
FOOD for the Poor (FFP) Guyana Inc, yesterday, donated a number of items to the Ministries of Agriculture and Amerindian Affairs. The Ministry of Agriculture was the beneficiary of farming tools and equipment as well as seeds while the Ministry of Amerindian Affairs received foodstuff, beds and mattresses which are intended to be of assistance to the hinterland communities. General Manager of FFP, Mr. Kent Vincent said that the relationship between is agency and the ministries has strengthened over the years and the agency is pleased to be making the donations. He pointed out that the former FFP Director had laid a foundation for this camaraderie and it will be maintained. Head of the National Agricultural Research Institute (NARI), Dr. Oudho Homenauth, who was present, said the intervention is, indeed, a timely one and is grateful for it. He acknowledged that it is not the first time that such interventions have been made, as it is an ongoing process and the farmers have benefitted immensely. Homenauth said, if one were to put a price on the gifts, it would be a significant amount as these basic items have provided a boost for development. MADE AWARE He assured that the seeds would reach the farmers and they will be made aware that FFP is the donor. Homenauth admitted that this is in keeping with the enhancing of food security and diversity in terms of supply. He added that, with regard to the tools, there is always a de-
mand for them and, sometimes, there is not any available, but now, those in need will benefit. Minister of Amerindian Affairs, Ms. Pauline Sukhai, who was present, too, said she is very much aware of the work and donations FFP has been making over the number of years to help the vulnerable and of the country. She confirmed that the ministry has a very good relationship with FFP and considers their assistance as being very significant. Sukhai said one great area of significance is the housing which FFP has been undertaking, as it is supporting Amerindian villages for more than five years now. She said she was present at the launching of most of the schemes and, of course, they are very well appreciated and the ministry recognises the support in FFP’s effort in the upgrading of housing. She remarked that, although many agencies have given back to communities, FFP arms have been very wide and she lauded the recently launched the Swan community housing project. Sukhai said that development is one on which the ministry has worked, consistently, with many agencies to ensure that issues such as surveys etc was sorted out. She explained that Swan was just a settlement where the indigenous people chose to make their homes and lots of attention and intervention was needed. She thanked FFP for the support and all they have done, noting that the items given will enhance the accommodation and lives of the Amerindian people.

$45M spent on upgrading Rosignol Secondary to A List school
GOVERNMENT has spent $45M on improving the Rosignol Secondary school in Region 5 to an A List School. The money was expended on text books, chemical and laboratory equipment, physical rehabilitation, computers and furniture to bring it to A List level. And on Tuesday, Education Minister, Priya Manickchand commissioned the upgraded
school. The school, which was offering 16 subjects, has now added six others. These are Biology, Physics, Economics, Building Technology, Technical Drawing and Spanish, and soon Visual Arts and Mechanical Engineering Technology will be added. To bring Rosignol Secondary to an A List school, a block was built to house two
science labs, and the old labs were converted into five classrooms. Major renovation work was done, while 21 computers were installed for Information Technology and materials and equipment bought for Home Economics. The Industrial Technology labs were renovated and equipped with furniture and materials while space was created for an agricultural science lab.
In the area of sport, a tarmac was constructed to facilitate games, and sports gear was bought. Each child has the recommended text in the following 15 subjects – Mathematics, English A, English B, Social Studies, Integrated Science, Chemistry, Physics, Biology, Food and Nutrition, Home Economics Management, Clothing and Textiles, Principles Of Accounts,
Minister Priya Manickchand and students and teachers of the Rosignol Secondary School during the unveiling of the plaque
Principles Of Business, Office Administration and Economics. There are class sets for the following four subjects – Physical Education, Agricultural Science, History and Geography. For Grades 7 to 9, each child has the recommended text for English, Mathematics, Science and Social Studies. There are also class sets for the following subjects – Agricultural Science, Home Economics and Spanish. Rosignol Secondary requires a cadre of 36 teachers, but now has one less. Eighteen of them are trained, with seven being graduates. Four additional trained teachers were appointed to this school this year, to teach Biology, Physics, Spanish, English A and Mathematics. Meanwhile, Minister Manickchand, speaking at the commissioning, said , “Education is the only tool that could change your life…the only way we can secure the future of our children is by giving them an education, the only thing you can give a child and no one can take it away from them.” The minister said that the only way to ensure that the country’s children are equal is to put the necessary infrastructure and human resources in place, and the PPP/C Government understands that; and it is for this reason that the education sector takes up a large chunk of the national budget annually. This investment, Minister Manickchand said, has produced results, in that today, because of access to education, poverty has been cut in half, which is significant, and 80% of
The gathering at the commissioning of the Rosignol Secondary School as an A List institution
secondary age children have access to secondary schools, 70% of the teachers are trained, and Guyana has been able to attain universal primary education. Government is now working to achieve universal secondary education in keeping with the Millennium Development Goal (MDG) Number 2. Minister Manickchand said that Region 5 has already achieved universal secondary education, and complimented the region for the work it has been doing to sustain the quality of education delivered. She said that even as the ministry is looking at building schools in some other areas, there is need to improve the quality of education delivered. “It’s not we alone, all around the world this conversation is happening, how we make sure the children get a proper education…government has ensured that we dedicate a large amount on education to ensure that happened”. One of the criticisms, she said, is that children have to go to extra lessons, and the ministry will be looking into that issue. However, she said that this will not be possible without the partnership of the parents, teachers and the regional administration. She urged the regional educational officers to be stern and ensure that the school curriculum is completed, and the teachers, to be the very best they can, and ensure they deliver the quality of education that is expected. Minister Manickchand said that parents also have a major role to play. “When you check all the children that are doing well, they have parents that are very supportive, not rich or educated, but they go to the PTAs and stay up and study with their children,” she said. Minister Manickchand also charged the students to make full use of the opportunity that have been given them, and to work hard so that in less than five years the school can produce the best in the Caribbean at all levels. Region 5 Chairman, Bindrabhan Bisnauth, expressed pleasure at the school being made an A List institution, and very soon Bygeval Secondary school will be converted as well. Bisnauth promised that the regional administration will continue to support the school’s programme, and make representation when necessary. He said that the region will continue to ensure that it becomes one of the best in the country. Recently, a new wing was commissioned at the Fort Wellington Secondary School, also in Region 5, to accommodate 150 Grade 7 students. Other schools in Region 5 to be commissioned include Novar Primary (extension), new Woodley Park Secondary School, and the Bygeval Secondary School as an A- List School.(GINA)

Apology
THE Guyana Chronicle would like to sincerely apologise to Chief Magistrate Priya Sewnarine-Beharry for misrepresenting her in the November 11 report headlined: ‘Mini-bus driver jailed for 18 months for causing death of 70-year-old pedestrian – driver’s license also revoked for four years’. We had reported that the convict had his licence revoked when; in fact the Chief Magistrate disqualified the driver from driving for four years. The report also said that “Chief Magistrate Priya Sewnarine-Beharry found Da Silva guilty of the offence and stated that he “failed to be a competent driver” since he was not under the influence of alcohol and that he was not using cell phone nor was he speeding in a prolonged persistent course to cause him to meet the point of impact of the cyclist.” However, this newspaper acknowledges that, in fact, the magistrate was making reference to the mitigating factors presented by the defence counsel which she was taking into consideration.
Defence makes no-case submissions in Khemraj Bhoodoo murder trial
JUSTICE James Bovell-Drakes will on Monday, November 18, deliver his ruling on defence no-case submissions in relation to murder accused Khemraj Bhoodoo, called ‘Shamy’. At the close of the prosecution’s case by State Counsel Miss Natasha Backer, Defence Counsel Mr. Keavon Bess relied on a no-case submission, alleging among other things that the State had not made out a case against the accused, and his client should be freed at that stage. This sparked off a voir dire ( a trial within a trial) in the absence of the jury, which was conducted by the trial judge. Backer is objecting to the defence submissions. The accused is charged with having on the 5th day of July 2005 in the county of Demerara, murdered Litendra Roopnarine, called ‘Boyo’. The judge will deliver his ruling at 10:30am on Monday.

Mon Repos murder trial begins - Jury hears about rum spree and mystery death By George Barclay
JUSTICE Diana Insanally and a mixed jury at the Demerara Assizes in the Mon Repos murder trial yesterday heard a story about one of two men who participated in a rum spree being found dead. The murder accused Chanderban Indar who is charged with the murder of his dead friend Ragendra Singh with whom he was drinking said to the police in a statement: “On 31st of May, 2010, Ragendra Singh visited me and we were drinking non-stop. Singh did not go home that night. “ The next morning I found his body motionless. I threw a bucket of water on him before calling in the police.” Indrar who was later charged with the murder of his friend told the police that he did not see any bloodstains around nor did he see any marks of violence on Singh’s body. However, another friend who visited the home told a different story. He said that he saw what appeared to be bloodstains on the floor and blood oozing from the deceased’s mouth. Attorney-at-Law, Mr.George Thomas is appearing for the accused. Miss Dhanika Singh is prosecuting. The hearing is continuing.
September 23 fatal accident driver on $1M bail
RAJESH Jaharan, of Lot 1876, Twenty Street, Diamond, East Bank Demerara, was, Tuesday , ordered to post $1M bail, when he appeared before Magistrate Judy Latchman charged with causing death by dangerous driving. That was after the Administration of Justice Act (AJA) had been applied and the 28-year-old pleaded not guilty to the offence, particulars of which said, on Monday, September 23, in Georgetown, he drove motor car PNN 1530 in a manner dangerous to the public, causing the demise of Joel Baynes. Police Sergeant Vishnu Hunt, prosecuting, told the Court that day around 01:15 hrs the defendant was driving at a fast rate of speed and, as he approached Robb Street, he failed to stop and collided with motor car HB 9018, which was proceeding east on Robb Street. The prosecutor added that as a result of the collision, the hire car spun around and ended up in the Digicom Store building, situated on the southern side of Robb Street. Meanwhile, the defendant’s car hit PRR 1647 which was stationary and facing east on the southern side of Robb Street, after ending up in the same building. The taxi driver was pronounced dead on arrival at the Georgetown Public Hospital (GPH) and, after a full report was submitted to the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP), instructions were issued for Jaharan to face the charge. Attorney-at-law Mr. Mark Waldron, for the defence, in his application for Jaharan’s pre-trial freedom, said the latter is not a fight risk and the case was adjourned to November 26.

GUIDE IS SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE
Aries March 21 - April 19
Still feeling solid, practical and responsible, not to mention grounded? Good. Because considering what might tumble out of your mouth today, you’re going to need a healthy dose of confidence. What’s it going to be? Well, it’s tough to say -- but it won’t be something you or anyone around you could ever have predicted. Almost sounds like fun, doesn’t it?
Taurus April 20 - May 20
It’s just your nature to wonder. But when you do too much of it, it can easily turn into an obsession. Keeping that in mind, could it be time to stop worrying if a deeper meaning was behind that comment a loved one recently made? You’re a natural-born detective, but some clues just aren’t worth following. And some folks aren’t clever enough to insert an actual meaning into everything they say.
Gemini May 21 - June 21
At this point, your friends are pretty well trained. Most of them don’t even bat an eyelash when you get going on one of your favourite subjects, even if it’s in a public place. They’ve learned that resistance is futile -- and besides, you’re usually quite entertaining to watch. Today, however, even the most seasoned among them will be hard-pressed to keep a straight face. Of course, you may have an equally hard time of it. One never knows what you might say or do.
Cancer June 22 - July 22
From the very moment you got up this morning, you’ve been in a rather odd mood. You don’t want to do anything the way you used to do it, and you don’t particularly care if that offends anyone. You’re not even trying to compromise, either. Since this is an unusual attitude for you, don’t be surprised if your loved ones are a bit stunned. They’re sure to get a big kick out of it, though!
Leo July 23 - August 22
Everyone’s going to be quite chatty today, no doubt about it. But you? Well, you’re going to be even more verbally reckless than usual. Now, it’s not like you’ve ever needed any help getting inspired to say exactly what you want to say -- the heck with the consequences -- so just imagine what today’s verbosity will bring. You’d better warn anyone who startles easily. Or not.
Virgo August 23 - September 22
Telling you not to go out and spend your every dime on a lark, with absolutely no thought for the future, just isn’t going to work -- asking you not to won’t work, either. What if someone who loves you reminds you of the bills that will be turning up in the mailbox, right around the same time your mortgage payment’s due? Well, that might work, but there are still no guarantees. This time you just may need to muster up the willpower yourself.
Libra September 23 - October 22
You’ve been waiting for the right moment to let someone know you’re not a child anymore, you’re perfectly capable of making your own choices and you don’t need their advice. And you had just about decided to make the announcement, when you realised they actually had something quite valuable to share. Better hold off on the declaration of independence for a bit, hmm?
Scorpio October 23 - November 21
You’re done talking about the issue that’s been making you crazy for weeks, if not months. You’re so done that even when a certain someone who’s ordinarily quite good at pushing your buttons starts to subtly poke at you, you won’t bite. It wouldn’t be fair, and it wouldn’t even be fun. You know you can win, and win easily, but you can’t justify the energy. It’s just as well. You have bigger fish to fry.
Sagittarius November 22 - December 21
You have some crazy friends, but one in particular stands head and shoulders above the rest. Should you dismiss them entirely, help this person find some psychological counselling or just pretend it never happened? Weigh the seriousness of the situation before you do anything at all. Sometimes it’s best just to coast and let the universe work it out.
Capricorn December 22 - January 19
They’ll sit down across from you, or stand right there in front of you, cross their arms and look you straight in the eye. Then they’ll ask if you’d please share your opinion of the current situation with them -- one-on-one -- as a favour and in confidence. Try not to be rude. You were already getting ready to let the world know your take, but it wouldn’t hurt to let them think they were responsible for the big revelation.
Aquarius January 20 - February 18
Your spiritual and psychic qualities are running on high right now. So if you suddenly get the feeling you don’t want to be where you are, or that you’d like someone else to be there with you, don’t even bother resisting. Do what it takes to make yourself comfortable and happy. You’ve connected with the powers that be, and they’re directing you. Sure, it sounds corny, but just go with it.
Pisces February 19 - March 20
You’ve never been fond of blind dates. But now, after one too many interesting experiences, to say you’re less than fond of them wouldn’t quite cover your sentiments. For some darned reason, though, a friend or family member is insisting there’s someone you ‘just have to meet.’ Hey, who knows? They could be right this time. Just don’t sign up for dinner. Suggest coffee or drinks, and duck out early if you need to.

Football chief seeking to change the structure of national competitions
ST GEORGE’S, Grenada, (CMC)- The President of the Grenada Football Association (GFA), Cheney Joseph wants his organisation to revisit its current competition structure and make changes, possibly by 2015. Joseph said that local footballers are not playing enough organised competitive games and this deficiency is affecting their ability to compete at the higher level. “I believe the GFA needs to review its current structure with regards to competitions,” Joseph said at a press conference yesterday. “We at the GFA should focus primarily on the Premier League and developmental football, and may be women, and allow for the parishes to take on the parish competitions”. Joseph’s proposal calls for a scrapping of the first and second divisions and organising parish leagues where teams will instead play in a national championship for promotion to the Premier League. He said the change will lead to more football being played at the community level and possibly create the environment for a semi-professional league. “I am proposing that the GFA should have the Premier League as its flagship competition, allow each
parish to run its own competition for the clubs within the parish and let the champion teams from each of the parishes play in a national championship to gain promotion to the Premier League,” Joseph explained. “It’s something that I am advocating and I would hope that we can get a discussion at GFA on this and hopefully by 2015 that can CHENEY JOSEPH come into place. That will give credence to the importance and relevance to the semi-professional league which we have been speaking about”. Joseph said that such an initiative should be less costly to clubs and will encourage more football and greater rivalry within the parishes. It will also provide an opportunity to create partnerships with sponsors within the parishes.
Legends salute Shiv on his ... (From back page ) Chanderpaul and urged him to celebrate the occasion. . The match will be played against India at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai and will also be the 200th and final Test match for India’s batting great Sachin Tendulkar. First ball is Thursday midnight Eastern Caribbean Time (11pm Wednesday Jamaica Time). “It will be a West Indian record and to play 150 Test matches tells you all you need to know about his stamina and longevity. He has not changed his style – which is a very beautiful thing – he has remained a batsman who bats for long periods and always looks to secure his wicket,” said Sir Everton. “Chanderpaul’s style is unique and quite different to that of most West Indians but he has done a magnificent job for West Indies cricket. I want to wish him all the very best
in this historic match,” added Sir Everton, who played 48 Tests and averaged 58.61 runs per innings. The 39-year-old Chanderpaul made his Test debut in 1994 against England at Bourda. He enters the historic Test with 10,897 runs at an average of 51.89 and made 28 hundreds and 61 half-centuries. Only fellow left-hander Brian Lara has scored more runs (11,953) for West Indies. Kanhai, who played 79 Tests between 1957 and 1974, praised Chanderpaul for his ability to bat for long periods and never get flustered. “I first saw him playing years ago in Guyana and was always impressed. Back them he was a raw youngster with bundles of talent and immense concentration. He has blossomed to become one of the great cricketers of the world,” Kanhai said. “He has a unique style of batting and it works well for him. He continues to show he has the great powers of concentration and likes to bat for long periods and the most important thing is he never gives his wick-

Stage four will get underway at 07:30hrs on Saturday from Suppenaam, Essequibo Coast, proceed to Charity then return to finish at Suddie. Stage five will be staged on Sunday from Kara Kara, Linden, at 08:00hrs and conclude on Homestretch Avenue.
et away. “I want to urge the West Indies first four can take leaf out of Chanderpual’s book and look to bat for a long period. If they do we will do well, and look to make 350 to 400 runs in first innings.” Kanhai added: “Sachin Tendulkar will also be playing his 200th Test match and this is another great achievement by another stalwart of our great game – an achievement that will be remembered forever.” Chanderpaul was named the International Cricket Council’s Player of the Year in 2008. He has scored 4,161 runs at an average of 70.52 runs per innings in 48 Tests since 2007 including 14 hundreds. Haynes, who played 116 Tests, praised Chanderpaul’s approach to his batting. “When he first came into the West Indies team I was still around and I remember seeing

a little boy and I was very impressed with his ability. He was someone who was driven and was determined to get better. He came into Test cricket with a good attitude towards batting – always looking to bat long and play within his limitation and I was pleased with his progress,” said Haynes. “A very memorable moment for him was when he batted with Brian Lara when he (Lara) broke Sir Garry Sobers’s record in Antigua. Not many people remember the role Shiv played on that day but I will always recall how he stayed at the crease and did the perfect job. “He (Chanderpaul) will be missed when he makes the decision to retire and we have to look at a succession plan for when Shiv goes.”

Broad shines but England frustrated by Carters and Nevill
ENGLAND’s bowlers were frustrated on the first day of their final Ashes warm-up match against an Australian Invitational XI in Sydney. Stuart Broad took three wickets and Steven Finn two as England reduced the hosts to 93-5. But an unbroken sixth-wicket stand of 178 between Ryan Carters (94no) and Peter Nevill (76no) helped the hosts close on 271-5. The first Test against Australia in Brisbane starts on 21 November. England will hope their bowlers pose more of a threat at the Gabba than they did in the second half of the day at the SCG With James Anderson rested and Chris Tremlett left out, Finn and Boyd Rankin were given the opportunity to stake their claim for the third seamer’s spot in England’s Test side. But Finn proved expensive at times in taking 2-79 from 22 overs, and Rankin could not find the right line and length to truly threaten the batsmen as he sent down 20 wicket-less overs for 60 runs. Their struggles were put into context by Broad’s superb performance as the Nottingham-
shire paceman took 3-36 from 20 overs. Broad, however, was quick to deflect criticism from his fellow seamers. “It was a tricky day to settle into a consistent rhythm because sand was flying up behind the bowlers, but I thought we held it together nicely,” he said. “Boyd obviously extracts huge bounce from his big frame and we all know what Finny can do on the international scene, and of course Tremlett is an experienced campaigner as well. “So we have a lot of experience in the bowling unit, which is very important on a tour like this because we know that two or three bowlers aren’t going to play the whole series. Everyone has to be ready to go.” Bowling a probing line and getting the ball to nip off the seam, Broad dismissed Aaron Finch and Callum Ferguson cheaply before returning to remove Ben Rohrer with the help of a fine catch at backward point by Michael Carberry. Finn accounted for Kurtis Patterson and opener Ed Cowan, who was dropped by Australia during this summer’s 3-0 Ashes defeat in England, for 51 shortly after lunch. Carters and Nevill batted cautiously before growing in
confidence, and 23-year-old Carters, who had a first-class average of just 20.75 before the game, went on to the highest score of his career. Jonny Bairstow, who was keeping wicket in the absence of the injured wicketkeeper Matt Prior, was tidy behind the stumps on the opening day. Former England captains Michael Vaughan and Alec Stewart have questioned whether Bairstow has the required level of skill to take Prior’s role in a Test, but Broad was impressed by his team-mate. “He kept really well,” said Broad. “He’s got a fantastic energy level and he really keeps everyone going each hour of the day. “ I have this theory that if people are talking about you it means they respect you” “So it was good for him to get some keeping in here in Australia in case Matt’s calf doesn’t come through. But I’m sure he’s hoping it will be fine next week.” With some rain forecast for the final two days of the fourday match, England will hope to take the final five wickets quickly on the second day to give their batsmen some time at the crease. Kevin Pietersen, in particular, will be hoping to find
form after having a cortisone injection on his problematic right knee. Broad is expected to be a target for the Australian crowds after his controversial decision not to walk during the opening Ashes Test of the summer at Trent Bridge.
But he added: “The crowds have been great. They are very appreciative of the cricket that has been played. It might ramp up a bit for the Test series but I think that’s expected. “I’ve always had this theory that if people are talking about you it means
they respect you. I’m reading Alex Ferguson’s book he said if the opposition fans are singing about you then that’s a very good sign. “It’s something that has stuck in my mind. It’s expected over here but all good fun.” (CA)

South Africa pace bowlers set up big win over Pakistan (REUTERS) - South Africa’s pace bowlers laid the foundation for a crushing nine-wicket victory over Pakistan in the first Twenty20 international at Dubai International Cricket Stadium yesterday. Dale Steyn (three for 15) and Lonwabo Tsotsobe (two for nine) put Pakistan in early trouble from which the sub-continent side never recovered as they limped to 98 for nine in their 20 overs.
Young firebrand Quinton de Kock (48 not out) and Faf du Plessis (37 not out) put on 83 in 73 balls for the second wicket as the Proteas coasted past their victory target in 14.3 overs. Magnificent swing bowling from Steyn and Tsotsobe had Pakistan reeling at three wickets down with just four runs on the board after Mohammad Hafeez had won the toss and elected to bat. Umar Akmal (49 from 41
balls) brought a semblance of respectability to the score before he was run out near the end of Pakistan’s innings, with the next highest score Shoaib Malik’s 12. Imran Tahir picked up two for 17, both his wickets stumped by De Kock, as Pakistan charged at everything despite their perilous situation. Having won the one-day series 4-1 recently, the South African batsmen have established
the ascendancy over Pakistan’s bowlers in the UAE and it never looked like their target would trouble them. Hashim Amla (13) lost his leg-stump to Sohail Tanvir, but a career-best knock from the exciting De Kock, who was ably supported by Du Plessis, brought victory in quick time. The second Twenty20 international will be played at the same venue tomorrow.
Dale Steyn dismissed Mohammad Hafeez early again in Dubai.
2015 World Cup targets families with cut-price tickets REUTERS) - Cricket fans will be able to pick up tickets for the 2015 World Cup in Australia and New Zealand for as little as A$5 ($4.66) for children and $20 for adults as organisers bid to get more than 1 million people through the gates. Having learned the lessons of the 2007 tournament in the Caribbean, where high ticket prices meant many of the matches were played in front of sparse crowds, organisers have made affordability for families a key consideration. FChildren’s tickets costing A$60 will be available even for the final at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG), where the most expensive adult ticket will cost A$395. “We want to put on an event which makes everyone who loves the game feel included,” Cricket World Cup chief executive John Harnden told a news conference at the Sydney Cricket Ground yesterday. “Cricket is a family game and like any sport, we want to inspire the next generation. We want kids to keep playing cricket, or if they are not currently playing cricket, to start. “With $5 children’s tickets for every pool match, and adult
tickets from $20, we believe we will attract people from around the corner and around the globe.” Organisers are also hoping to engage immigrant communities in the 14 host cities to help
2015 Cricket World Cup chief executive John Harnden fill the grounds and provide what they hope will be a carnival atmosphere, particularly at the 42 pool matches. “It’s about 14 teams, if Australia and New Zealand do well, that’s the icing on the cake,” Harnden added. “We’ve got a community engagement programme and we are working very, very hard to effectively make every match for every team a home match.
“We need to capture the hearts and minds of all the communities and populations in those 14 cities and, if we get that right, I really do think a lot of the rest of it looks after itself.” Tickets will go on sale to the general public on Feb. 14 next year but fans can pre-register their interest online at www. cricketworldcup.com. The 2011 World Cup in Bangladesh, India and Sri Lanka set an imposing standard for ticket sales with 1.2 million spectators attending matches, but Harnden was confident at least two thirds of the 1.5 million available for next year would be taken up. “We believe over a million people will attend,” Harnden said. “At the start of the journey, more than a million is realistic but we’re not going to get ahead of ourselves.” The 10 full member nations of the International Cricket Council (ICC) will take part in the Feb. 14-March 29 tournament along with Ireland, debutants Afghanistan and two other qualifiers. The final two teams will be decided in a qualifying tournament in New Zealand early next year.
New Manager appointed for T&T senior cricket team
PORT-OF-SPAIN, Trinidad, (CMC)- Trinidad and Tobago’s former sports minister, Manohar Ramsaran, has been chosen as the new manager of the country’s senior cricket team. Ramsaran replaces Omar Khan who has had a successful record as manager, having won many titles with the senior team. He recently took the team to the Champions League T20 series in India. The decision to remove Khan was made on the weekend by the executive of the T&T Cricket Board (TTCB) during a retreat. Ramsaran, who served as CEO of the TTCB for a while during the last tenure of Azim Bassarath’s administration, will be in charge of the national team for a one-year period and his first assignment will be the Regional Super50 cricket tournament in Trinidad in January. There have also been other changes. Tony Ramjit , manager of the Under-15 team , has been moved up to manager of the national Under-19 side replacing Roland Sampath, who also served as manager of the West Indies Under-19 team against Bangladesh, recently. The Under-15 void left by Ramjit will be taken up by John Lewis of the East Zonal Cricket Council. MANOHAR RAMSARAN

Never seen this kind of buzz - Dhoni By Sidharth Monga in Mumbai
MS Dhoni has always had a sense of occasion, and doesn’t mind a bit of showmanship either. When Sourav Ganguly retired from Test cricket in 2008-09, Dhoni let him captain the side towards the end of the match. Now Sachin Tendulkar is the only other of India’s fab four batsmen who has given a prior notice of his retirement. Dhoni was asked on the eve of Tendulkar’s last and 200th Test what he had planned. A mysterious reply with a mischievous smile has promised much. “You’ll have to wait and watch over the next five days,” Dhoni said. “I want you to concentrate.” Concentrate people will. Oh they surely will. . The buzz around the Test, Dhoni said, “has never happened in the past, let alone the eight-10 years that I’ve been around”. Dhoni has himself maintained a sense of equilibrium with the retirement around, and his wishlist for Tendulkar’s final Test is similar . “I’d like him to enjoy, because you can’t guarantee performance,” Dhoni said. “Of course you can say [hope he gets] a hundred, a double-hundred, a triple-hundred or 500, whatever. But at the end of the day the most important moment is that it is his last Test match. It’s important that he enjoys this and hopefully get us a few wickets... You can get a bit of turn and bounce on this Mumbai wicket.” Bowling over the years has been something Tendulkar has visibly enjoyed more than his batting, which requires intense focus under the helmet. Dhoni got Tendulkar to bowl in Kolkata last week, and intends to do the same by the looks of it. Not that the fans will complain. “It [bowling Tendulkar at Eden] was strategy [and not a farewell gimmick], it got us a wicket,” Dhoni said. “You see, we don’t have a fifth bowler because [Ravindra] Jadeja is not here. So we are playing with four bowlers and a few part-timers. Most of the others can bowl, there is Rohit who can bowl, but it’s important that if there are a few overs of part-timers, it helps... If there are chances that you’re going to take the second new ball, you don’t want your main bowlers to be tired. So it’s a strategy.” Most of Dhoni’s press conference centred around Tendulkar - he did say he didn’t know how the pitch would play, and that West Indies should not be disrespected - which can be an irritant because a Test match is to be played, but Dhoni understood the reaction.
MS Dhoni: “I would consider him as great because when it comes to Indian cricket, you’re under the microscope throughout.” “It’s too late to ask whether it’s a distraction or not because whatever has happened has happened,” Dhoni said. “I think it’s a big part and parcel of the game. It’s a big historic moment, and people are trying to do whatever they can, and we don’t really mind that. “As I said in the last match also we’re treating it as normal as
Uruguay thrash Jordan 5-0 in World Cup qualifier URUGUAY thrashed Jordan 5-0 to take control of their World Cup play-off tie and take a huge stride towards qualifying for next summer’s finals. Maxi Pereira prodded in a rebound to open the scoring before Christian Stuani slotted in a second. Ahmad Ibrahim missed
a glorious chance for Jordan and Nicolas Lodeiro sealed the result from 20 yards. Cristian Rodriguez added a fourth and Edinson Cavani a superb free-kick to all but eliminate Jordan. The 1930 and 1950 World Cup winners - who have required play-offs to reach the last three finals - now host Jordan
in Montevideo in the second leg next Wednesday, with the outcome seemingly a formality. Uruguay had finished fifth in South American qualifying, edged out of the automatic places by Ecuador on goal difference, but with Liverpool striker Luis Suarez partnered up front by Paris St-Germain’s £55m striker Cavani, they were

always likely to have too much firepower for Jordan. The Middle East nation, who had beaten Uzbekistan in Asian qualifying to reach the play-off, have never appeared at the World Cup. Suarez should have scored inside five minutes but shot over after Rodriguez had crossed from the left. Pereira did open the scoring when Cavani’s header was parried clear by goalkeeper Mohamad Shatnawi, before Lodeiro lofted a clever pass over the top of the defence and Stuani finished at the near post. Jordan started the second half on top and could have found a way back into the tie when Ibrahim missed a glorious opening, side-footing wide from six yards. And Uruguay went on to put the tie out of reach. First Cavani rounded Shatnawi to set up Lodeiro, who lofted cleverly into the roof of the empty net, before Rodriguez cracked in a half-volley from 15 yards. Cavani then scored the goal of the night in stoppage-time, arcing a brilliant free-kick into the top corner from 25 yards. Uruguay coach Oscar Tabarez: “This result will put us in a good position for the second leg. “We will play with the same formation to honour the Uruguayan fans who will fill the stadium next Wednesday, as I heard that 60,000 tickets were sold.” (BBCSport).
possible. Of course there are plenty of things that are going around, so we’ve kept the focus and the drive whatever best we could do. They’re enjoying the moment, which I feel is the key, but at the same time we’re focussed.” Asked to rate Tendulkar, Dhoni summed up his career well. “I would consider him as great because when it comes to Indian cricket, you’re under the microscope throughout,” Dhoni said. “He’s seen the format change, right from start in 1989. From that time, Test cricket has changed significantly. ODI cricket, there have been a plenty of changes. The introduction of T20 has come, and overall it had an impact on each and every thing. “It’s not only the cricketing aspect; I think what’s difficult is to handle success in India, the expectations of the people. We’re expected to win each and every game, which is not possible. “Yes, there are other greats, but there was one thing they didn’t have to deal with, and that’s the level of expectations. When you’re doing well that itself puts pressure on you. But imagine when you’re going through a lean patch, the expectations go up, they never come down. “So you’ve to handle all those things. I have seen some of the foreign cricketers, they handle the cricketing pressures well. But when it comes to handling the pressures that are not really related to cricket, they buckle under... So he’s been fantastic, and there’s plenty to learn from him. Right from 1989 he became big star, for a quarter of century he’s played for India, and he’s always been a star.” The obvious question of who after Tendulkar arose, and Dhoni said he would cross that bridge once he arrived there. “We’ll see future in the future, whether we’re prepared or not,” Dhoni said. “We’ll know that later, I can’t say what will happen outside India. If you’re saying that if a replacement for Sachin is required, no, there is no such. “Neither do we have a replacement for Rahul Dravid or someone else. “What’s important is that we take the new players on their face value. It’s not about filling someone’s shoes. “Virat is Virat Kohli, not someone else. Same way Cheteshwar Pujara. If you start comparing individuals with some great players, it only adds pressure on them. It’s important that Pujara, he has a different character than the players who are gone.” (ESPN Cricinfo)
ECB make changes for 2014 SUPER Overs and coloured creases are set to be introduced to the Friends Life Twenty20 from next season as the England and Wales Cricket Board aims to make the game “more viewer friendly”. The ECB has announced a raft of regulation changes for next season, which includes better reward for drawn matches in next season’s LV= County Championship. Five points will be now be secured for a draw - up from three - in the four-day game, although it is in the shorter formats where the most sweeping changes are set to be made. Super Overs will be used for tied matches in the Twenty20 group stage for the first time, while “alternative colours to white” will be used for creases subject to a trial. Batsmen will also have just 60 seconds, rather than the 90 permitted last season, to reach the crease.

Lax drugs testing risks Olympic ban - Thomas Bach JAMAICA and Kenya risk being banned from future Olympic Games if their drugs testing programmes fail to come up to scratch, International Olympic Committee (IOC) chief Thomas Bach has warned. Both nations’ testing is being examined by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA). “The WADA code is very clear,” Bach told BBC Sport. “Countries which are not compliant can be excluded from events including the Olympic Games.” Sprinter Asafa Powell is one of several Jamaicans to test positive recently. Meanwhile Kenya’s govern-
ment and Olympic federation are yet to confirm that a task force to investigate allegations of a doping culture in their set-up, promised 12 months ago, has been established. WADA travelled to Jamaica in October to audit the country’s testing procedures and said it was “very frustrated” by the apparent lack of progress in Kenya. Bach said the International Olympic Committee would not shy away from acting if WADA found either nation was “non-compliant”. He added: “We can only sanction if we have a non-compliance declaration by WADA.” The Olympic Charter states that all National Olympic Com-
UCCA to host biggest event of the year on November 30
THE Upper Corentyne Cricket Association (UCCA) is hosting what is expected to be the biggest cricketing event of the year in the Upper Corentyne on Saturday November 30, 2013, at the No. 69 Vikings ground on the Corentyne. The day’s activity will see Berbice four-zone senior teams participating with the first game starting at 10:00hrs with Upper Corentyne taking on New Amsterdam/Canje, and at 14:00hrs West Berbice facing up against what is expected to be a star-studded lineup from Lower Corentyne. The final will be played under lights at 18:30 hrs. All proceeds from this event will go towards cricket development in the Upper Corentyne area. Tickets are already on sale at the Berbice Cricket Board Office, New Amsterdam; Ram’s Stationery Store, Rose Hall Town; Vishnu’s Super Store, Springlands; and Sarfraz Photo Studio, Corriverton. The cost per ticket is $500 while children under 12 years will gain entry free. There will be gate prizes to be won. Music by Slow Fire Sound System. The UCCA is calling on the business community to support this event as cricket development is much needed in the Upper Corentyne Area. Thus far the UCCA wishes to thank the following businesses/ persons for coming on board with sponsorship: 4R (Mr. Deonarine), La Grill Hotel Restaurant & Bar; Sarfraz Photo Studio & Video Recording Centre; Vishnu’s Super Store; Ram’s Stationery Store; A.H & L Kissoon’s; Hand-in-Hand; Republic Bank (Guyana) Ltd; Sukhpaul’s Business Enterprise; Countryside TV-19; Deckers; and Geddes Grant for coming on board with gate prizes. Persons interested in food vending and setting up games for kids can make contact with the UCCA on telephone # 621-0014 or 684-8891.
mittees must “adopt and implement” the World Anti-Doping Code with competitors, coaches, trainers and all officials obliged to “respect and comply in all aspects”.
IOC CHIEF THOMAS BACH. A ban would prevent innocent athletes such as Kenyan 800m Olympic champion David Rudisha and Jamaican sprinting great Usain Bolt competing. Along with Powell, twice 200m Olympic champion Veronica Campbell-Brown and London 2012 4x100m relay silver medallist Sherone Simpson were left out of Jamaica’s team for the World Championships in August after failed drugs tests. After the spate of positive results, former Jamaican Anti-Doping Commission (Jadco)
executive director Renee Anne Shirley claimed it had conducted just one out-of-competition test in the five months leading up to the 2012 Olympic Games in London. Shirley also told Sports Illustrated that when she took up her role with Jadco in July 2012 the organisation did not have a whereabouts officer to track athletes out of competition and had been restricted by out-ofdate testing kits. Dr Paul Wright, JADCO’s most senior drugs tester, added that Powell, Campbell-Brown and Simpson’s failed tests may be the “tip of the iceberg”. Former WADA president Dick Pound admitted the organisation may have been “a little slow on the uptake” in monitoring Jamaica and Kenya’s testing programmes were less stringent than required. In his address to the World Conference on Doping in Sport, Bach promised there would be more tests at Sochi 2014, to be staged in Russia in February, than any previous Winter Olympics. There will be a total of 2,453 tests around the Games, up from 2,149 four years ago in Vancouver. (BBC Sport)

Manager confident OCA players will perform creditably By Frederick Halley TORONTO, Canada – A confident 13-member Ontario Cricket Association (OCA) team wings out here on Friday, embarking on a one-week goodwill tour of Guyana and Trinidad and Tobago. During the two-nation visit, the OCA players are scheduled to play a total of six matches, comprising two 40-over games and four T-20s. According to manager Bisham Singh, while the aim is to win all the matches, the tour is being used as a means of giving the players much needed experience in overseas conditions. Singh pointed out that the players are all coming off the recently-concluded OCA cricket season and are eager to perform in what should be hotter climatic conditions. They are also hoping for favourable weather during their sojourn. Singh is also hoping that the knowledge gained while in Guyana and Trinidad and Tobago will serve his players well and they will also be able to impart same to others on their return. The 13-member squad will be bolstered by the inclusion of former national fast bowler, Trevon Garraway, all-rounder, Royston Crandon, who still harbours ambitions of donning national colours again, and Gavin Singh. The players are set to be engaged in their first practice session at the LBI ground, East Coast Demerara on Saturday and open their tour with a 40-over contest against Enmore at the host’s venue the following day, starting at 11.00 hrs. On Monday, they tackle Everest at their Camp Road venue in a 20-over encounter that gets underway at 13.00 hrs while on Tuesday, the action switches to Bourda for another T-20 game versus the Georgetown Cricket Club (GCC), commencing at a similar time. The Albion Community Centre ground, Berbice is the venue for next Wednesday’s T-20 encounter versus the powerful Berbice side, which will see the culmination of the Guyana leg of the tour. The OCA squad, which is being coached by Rabin Budhoo, departs Guyana on Thursday for Trinidad and Tobago for the remaining two matches, a 40-over game against a T&T Select XI next Friday and a T-20 match versus Central Trinidad on Saturday, November 23. They depart for Canada the following day. The 13-member squad comprises: Adnan Suleman, Rajiv Bhatia, Aiyub Ahmadzai, Dheeraj Kumar, Nabiullah Nawabi, Muhammad Akber Hussain, Mustafa Popalzai, Sarabjot Singh, Azhad Amidon, Ajmal Chughai, Allan DeSouza, Neeraj Bharadwaj and Priyam Thaker.
Bailey & Johnson in Australia Ashes squad UNCAPPED batsman George Bailey and pace bowler Mitchell Johnson have been named in Australia’s 12-man squad for the first Ashes Test against England. Bailey, 31, edged out fellow Tasmanian Alex Doolan after impressing as stand-in captain of Australia’s one-day team. Left-armer Johnson, 32, was dropped for Australia’s 3-0 Ashes defeat in England this summer, but showed good form in the one-day series in September. The first of five Tests starts in Brisbane on 21 November. Injured left-arm paceman Mitchell Starc is the only absentee from the Australia XI that played in the final Ashes Test at The Oval in August. James Faulkner keeps his place, while fellow all-rounder Shane Watson is included despite a hamstring injury that may prevent him from bowling. Bailey has a modest firstclass average of 38.28 from 97 games, but has been a revelation for Australia in the 50over format, and captains the Twenty20 side. In 35 matches, he has scored 1,539 runs at 54.96, including four scores in excess of 80 in the recent one-day series defeat by India. “We have included George GEORGE BAILEY Bailey in this line-up and are excited by what he can offer at Test level,” said Cricket Australia national selector John Inverarity. “George has shown outstanding international form over the past 20 months. He is calm and composed and comes into the squad full of confidence. Alastair Cook’s team are seeking to become the first England side since 1890 to win four Ashes series in a row. Australia are unbeaten in 24 Tests in Brisbane, their last defeat coming against West Indies in 1988. Australia squad: Michael Clarke (captain), Brad Haddin (vice-captain, wk), George Bailey, James Faulkner, Ryan Harris, Mitchell Johnson, Nathan Lyon, Chris Rogers, Peter Siddle, Steven Smith, David Warner, Shane Watson.

India legend Sachin Tendulkar poised for final farewell CRICKET legend Sachin Tendulkar is poised for an emotional farewell when his 200th and final Test gets under way in his home city of Mumbai today. The 40-year-old record run-scorer in Tests and oneday internationals will quit all cricket after India’s second Test against West Indies.

tion of 1.2 billion people which started when he confirmed that the series against West Indies would be his last. Such has been the interest in Tendulkar’s final match that a website selling tickets crashed within minutes of opening after receiving 19.7 million hits in the first hour. Fans have staged protests against the fact that only 5,000 of the 33,000 tickets went on public sale, with the remainder of the seats being filled by politicians, celebrities, former players and corporate guests. The area around the Wank-
hede Stadium has been plastered with posters and murals of the player dubbed the “Little Master”. Tendulkar’s wife, Anjali, has joked that they may require a museum to house all the gifts and mementos. Meanwhile, tributes have been flocking in from some of Tendulkar’s most illustrious contemporaries. West Indies great Brian Lara described the India star as “the Muhammad Ali and the Michael Jordan of cricket”. Lara, who scored 11,953 runs in 131 Tests, added: “Tendulkar has had the greatest cricket career of anyone who has ever played the game.” Former Australia Shane Warne also praised the prolific batsman. “There will not be another Sachin Tendulkar,” Warne, who took 708 Test wickets, wrote in his Daily Telegraph column. “He was the best batsman of my generation.” The hysteria surrounding Tendulkar has overshadowed a milestone for West Indies batsman Shivnarine Chanderpaul,
who will be playing his 150th Test. The 39-year-old left-hander, however, said it was a “privilege” just to be sharing the stage with the Indian on such a momentous occasion. “We have watched him over the years. It is always a joy to look at him bat even though he is batting against us,” said Chanderpaul, who has scored 10,897 runs at an average of 51.89 “There is so much you can learn from a legend like him. He is a master of batting. His art, his skill and looking at him you can learn a lot.” West Indies captain Darren Sammy said his bowlers were competing to be the last man to dismiss Tendulkar. “From the moment we heard it is going to be his last Test in Mumbai, all the bowlers were quite motivated,” he said. “There is a chance to go down in history. The last stroke he would play in any cricket match and your name could go down in there.” Tickets for Tendulkar’s final match have been hard to come by - only 5,000 went on public sale

By Michael DaSilva
INISTER of Culture, Youth and Sport Dr. Frank An thony, yesterday implored on the cyclists participat ing in the 7TH Annual Ministry of Health (MoH)/ National AIDS Programme Secretariat (NAPS)/ National Sports Commission (NSC) ‘Ride for Life’ 5-stage cycle road race to abide by the rules during the event which gets underway today. The minister was at the time addressing the cyclists before their departure to Corentyne, Berbice, for the start of the race which ends on Sunday. Minister Anthony said the rules of the event hinge on people’s safety, so he hopes the event will be incident free. “Ride well and let’s break some records,” Dr. Anthony declared. According to the Minister, the Ministry of Health (MoH) played a very significant role in organising the event, something they have been doing since the ‘Ride for Life’ event began in 2006. He said his ministry was very pleased to see the race grow in the number of cyclists and he would like to see it becoming the premier cycle race on the ministry’s calendar. The Minister is also hopeful that very soon it is added to the UCI’s calendar of events, thereby attracting more foreign and international cyclists. He called on the Guyana Cycling Federation (GCF) to see how this can happen. This year’s event has attracted seven foreign cyclists (three from the USA, two from Colombia, and one from Barbados) who will do battle with 65 local riders. He said there were a lot of doubts with regards to this year’s
event, but his ministry, through the NSC came forward and funded the activity “because we recognize the importance of the race” the Minister stated, adding that “after the race, we’ll evaluate it and bring other partners to seed how we can get financing for future races”. He thanked the members of the Guyana Police Force Traffic Department in advance for the good work they usually do when there are such activities on Guyana’s roadways. Director of Sport, Neil Kumar, in brief remarks, informed that Minister Anthony is the livewire for the event and noted that this year’s race was very difficult to organize “but Minister made sure it happened” Kumar stated. GCF president, Cheryl Thompson, noted that the event was put in place at a very short time and congratulated national cycle coach, Hassan Mohammed, for working tirelessly to ensure the event was well organized. She called on the cyclists to adhere to the rules and act like professionals and said she was expecting a highly competitive race. One female cyclist Naomi Singh is among the starters for today’s event and Thompson informed that Singh intends to complete all five stages. Minister Anthony said should Singh complete the race, it will be a historic moment. Like Thompson, Mohamed called on the cyclists to adhere to the rules. He informed that in 2006 there were only 30 starters, all of whom were local riders, but the number has grown to 72 in 2013. The event gets underway from Corentyne, Berbice, with
