The team visiting Guyana is from International Co-operation Review Group (ICRG) of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF).

'Operation

Safeway'

- Major campaign launched to curb road accidents - Prime Minister appeals for extra cars. bV. road users By Rabindra Rooplall THE Guyana Police Force Wednesday launched a major campaign to curb the high incidence of road accidents which have claimed 96 lives for the year. "We are going to have an increase in traffic patrols by day and night we will have the reintroduction of spotting exercises. we will have an increased deployment in black spots (the cluster where there are fatal accidents), we will have random breathalyzer testing." Police Commissioner (ag) David Ramnarine announced at Police Headquarters. Eve Leary. Ramnarine said "Operation Safeway" will restore much needed road safety consciousness with the ultimate goal of minimising the number of accidents. On Tuesday, a meeting was held with Divisional Commanders. the Traffic Chief and Divisional Traffic Heads to outline the steps which would be taken during the operation, including more frequent use of radar guns to target speeding drivers.

Commissioner of Police (ag) David Ramnarine

"Every Guyanese needs to arrive home alive. We all need to slow down. There is no place for drunkards behind the wheel. I support sanctions against persons charged with serious traffic offences, especially when they cause injury or death while under the influence of alcohol." - Prime Minister Moses Nagamootoo

In a statement. Prime Minister Moses Nagamootoo said that the issue of increased road fatalities was raised at both this week's National Security Committee and Cabinet meetings. As a result, he said an "urgent decision was taken" to launch Operation Safeway. "Every Guyanese needs to arrive home alive. We all need to slow down. There is no place for drankards behind the wheel. I support sanctions against persons charged with serious traffic offences, especially when they cause injury or death while under the influence of alcohol, the" Prime Minister said Mr Nagamootoo took particular note of the deaths of five Guyanese as a result of tragic accidents on the roadways in recent days: Abeka Trotman. 4. was killed on Sherriff Street

while siblings Tina Halley. 7. and 10-month-old Marvin Halley lost their lives at Blankenburg on the West Coast of Demerara on Tuesday morning; RameshRampat. 23 and Richard Ramnarine. 45. also lost their lives in a fatal Corentyne. Berbice accident at the weekend. "I feel a deep sense of sadness and hurt at the continued needless loss of lives on our roads. The deaths of three children is particularly heart-rending." Prime Minister Nagamootoo said. "As a father and a grandfather I share the loss, the pain and the grief of all those loved ones who have perished on our roads." he added. Mr Nagamootoo said that "President David Granger and I along with the entire Cabinet appeal to drivers, cyclists, pedestrians and all road users to exercise extra care and attentiveness while using our roads." The number of road deaths so far this year represents a 10% increase over the same period last year. The Police Commissioner said that the Force has noticed "a very high degree of callousness regarding the attitudes towards other road users, in particular pedestrians." Road fatalities since 2011 Year 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 (to date)

Ministry

IT WAS earlier reported that half of the 2016 national budget had been unused, but the Ministry of Finance has related that it is indeed its Public Sector Investment Programme (PSIP) that has experienced this slow pace of spending. The clarification follows a report by this newspaper earlier that said less than 50 percent of budgetary spending had been done by government ministries. Minister Winston Jordan who spoke on the matter said that according to the Ministry's midyear report it was highlighted that PSIPs had experienced low implementation and not the 2016 national budget. According to the Minister's report. "As at June (last) our rate of (PSIP) implementation was just over 25 percent."

He said there was a decline in the application of the five "Cs"" that are well publicised, but are seemingly becoming something of the past. "This is not being rade or disrespectful to anyone, but commonsense is becoming so rare that many people wish they could purchase it in a shop. "This is the reality of the situation; your commonsense which is linked to your conscience is a natural sense of what is right and wrong, just and unjust, moral and immoral, it's the voice that speaks to you from within, but do we listen to that voice? " Mr Ranmraine questioned. He said that the high incidence of fatal accidents is unacceptable not only to the force, but also to key stakeholders in Guyana. Of the number of fatal accidents. 14 were caused by drunk drivers while another 50 resulted from speeding. In 43 of the accidents, the drivers were charged and an inquest was recommended for 22 of the cases; 15 cases are awaiting legal advice. Mr Ramnarine stated that 70% of the drivers involved in these accidents were between the ages of 18-33. and that most of the accidents (71%) involved private motorcars. "If we don't harness this situation that is developing, the prognosis is we are likely to have 120 accidents at the end of 2016 with 132 deaths, which is something we really can't accept." the Top Cop said. "We cannot sit and allow this to happen; we are a small developing country with a small population." "The carnage on our roads leaves so many persons in pain and agony. Mothers, fathers, children, brothers, sisters, wives, husbands and other relatives, friends, neighbours, classmates and work colleagues are all emotionally distressed by the needless loss of lives." the Prime Minister stated. Ramnarine said of recent, most accidents have been occurring betw een Friday midday to Monday mornings. He warned drivers that there will be rigid enforcement of the law and urged that they make use of the abundance of educational materials on safe driving. With the new campaign, Mr Ramnraine also had a warning for those who will be involved in Operation Safeway: "We don't want traffic ranks and anti-crime ranks to be involved in unprofessional conduct with the travelling public, since only if an offence is committed then a rank should intervene.

budget

While capital expenditure had increased to 89. 4 percent, it was recognised that some programmes had to be reshuffled and changes made to boost PSIP spending. The PSIP makes up just about 25 percent of the national budget. The Finance Ministry was however unable to provide the percentage of budget expenditure since the figures were not available when requested. However PSIP implementation is being blamed on poor planning. Minister Jordan has told the Guyana Chronicle that "interference" affected the smooth functioning of implementation systems. This was directly related to operational systems within the various sectors. Minister Jordan also believes that some agencies

expenditures

were "caught off-guard with an early 2016 Budget," and that some were accustomed to being relaxed and lackadaisical in their approach to getting things done, that they were surprised by the early budget and were unable to function accordingly. President David Granger has nonetheless related government's continuous strides toward creating a workable planning and implementation system that fixes many of the issues inherited from the previous Administration. The President said it is the government's intention to have planning units created in all ministries ahead of the 2017 budget. He said there needs to be more careful planning in relation to spending budgetary allocations.

Chevy Devonish, Wednesday said they are concerned that the agreement would expire in three years and they are anxious for details on what happens next. "I am happy for this new agreement; however, if it is indeed tme that it is only for a term of three years, then this is unfortunate. "It raises several questions: Why only three years? What is the justification? When do negotiations for a new agreement start? Is it before the expiry of the old agreement or after it expires? How long will it take?" Devonish said the Law Society does not want another situation where the agreement expires and students are left to wonder whether or not they will be given the opportunity to study for their Legal Education Certificates (LECs) at the Hugh Wooding Law School. Attorney General and Legal Affairs Minister Basil Williams Wednesday said the government has made good on its promise by paying US$85,000 to the Hugh Wooding LawSchool, as cost for 50 students. The money was set aside by the National Assembly for the payment of 25 per cent of the economic cost of the fees paid by Guyanese law students I'lilVlilJUl GARDEN CENTRE & PLANT SHOP AT PLANTATION SCHOONARD WBD T

How ever, Devonish said he is not aware that Guyanese students attending Hugh Wooding have yet felt the benefit of the payment by government. "...though the payment may have been made by Government, the process has not reached the stage where it translates into lower tuition fees. By itself, this issue is problematic enough. But it is coupled with the fact that some students have travelled with reduced tuition [fees], and will not be able to commence classes until they have paid," he explained.

I do not know who is at fault for the current state of affairs, or even if fault is attributable to either of the parties. I just know that as things stand currently, the students have to pay the same tuition." Minister Williams would not be dragged into saying that the money paid by government was for a specific expense. "Whether it is a combination of economic cost and defraying the expenses for students, at the end of the day it is US$85,000. Whether it is fees or economic cost, it is going into the coffers of the Hugh Wooding Law School." Minister Williams was keen on pointing out that the contribution to the Hugh Wooding LawSchool by the government of Guyana comes after approximately 14 years. The local law students would like to have matters cleared up.

AFC doesn't owe Ramayya a dime - Ramjattan LEADER of the Alliance For Change (AFC) Khemraj Ramjattan said his party does not owe Dr Veerasammy Ramayya a dime. Ramayya. the former Regional Executive Officer of Region Six announced his resignation from the party. which forms part of the country's coalition administration . on Tuesday. In a letter addressed to General Secretary of the AFC. David Patterson, and dated September 13th. 2016. Dr Ramayya said among other things that he is disappointed that the money he spent in 2011 and 2015 was not returned. He said he had spent more than $15M on the party during the campaign period and received only $5.5M. "Recently I have sent six letters out from the President downwards asking them if I would be reimbursed for the money I spent in 2015... weeks and no one had the courtesy to acknowledge my letter and further to that, in

Dr Veerasammy Ramayya 2011. although I received $5.5 M. the election cost Region Six over $20M... Today I hnd that people who have not invested more for this new government are reaping the beneht." Dr Ramayya said. But on Wednesday. Ramjattan told the Guyana Chronicle that he had anticipated the former REO's resignation. "We don't owe him a dime, absolutely nothing -

15M? During the campaign we paid the people who we were supposed to pay and they all got their monies. A claim of $15M.. .would make me use some very unpleasant words which I do not want to use." Ramjattan said in response to queshons posed by the Guyana Chronicle. He did however acknowledge the work put in by Dr Ramayya and said the party has done that which was required for the former Region Six REO. "I think we did what we had to do for him... [We] gave him the regional executive position." said the AFC leader. "I might be unpleasant with the remarks...he still remains a very good friend and he worked hard for the party. I will probably put out a statement later on. I don't want to now." he told the Guyana Chronicle. The AFC leader has no issue with Dr Ramayya rejoining the party in the future, despite Tuesday's

matters THIS year's Education Month (September) is being observed under the tbeme, "Each Child Matters: Stakeholders Unite for the Enhancement of Education." Efforts by every government to unleash and enhance the intellectual capacity of its human capital are worthy. A nation cannot develop without a vision and the inputs of its people, which even the ever-growing reliance on modem technology continues to prove. There is still the need for human inputs in the conceptualisation, development, application and maintenance of the various mechanisations. People often speak about education as being in the classroom, completing school and passing examinations and being awarded the requisite certification. Yet education is much more complex. An educated nation is not only one where formal classrooms are established and students go through the rudiments of meeting the curriculum and being successful at it. An important component, if not the most important, is the philosophy that drives the nation's developmental thrust that would inform its education policy and influences programmes and laws. A nation that prides itself as the best or among the best of nations, conceptualisation of its education policy will be driven to ensure it achieves or maintains that pride of place and competitive edge. Being in such category would ensure systems are built and put in place for intellectual development that would ensure productive citizens and increase productivity for the people and nation's benefits. Where the two are considered equally important, it requires catering for diverse abilities, given that each has unique talent and all talents, from the least to most certificated, are important. The focus that every child matters, the attention within recent years to downplay technical education as seen by the removal of the Community High Schools for instance, meant that some children did not matter. There is no one size fits all in learning or one skill fits all in development. Planning in education has to factor in these. Another component, which becomes important, given historical experiences of mistrust and inequities, is to factor into education the contributions each ethnic group has made to the nation's development. Welding a nation and ensuring the comity of its people rely on respecting all the peoples. One factor in ensuring this outside of laws is to create learning opportunities for each citizen not only to understand the contribution of his lineage,

TWO Chinese nationals were each fined $100,000 for producing fraudulent visas to a Caribbean Airlines representative. Through the translation of an interpreter Yang Fengqia, 31, and Yao Liwei, 37, both admitted to the allegation which was read to them by Chief Magistrate Ann McLennan at the Georgetown Magistrates' Court. It was alleged that on September 10, 2016, at the Cheddi Jagan International Airport (CJIA) Timeh-

ri, East Bank Demerara, with the intent to defraud Custom Service agent of Caribbean Airlines, they each produced one People of the Republic of China's passport bearing the numbers E50174580 and E73433258 respectively, in favour of themselves with a forged Canadian visa holding numbers C126872082 inserted on page 23 and C130182413 inserted on page 8, respectively, with knowledge of same being false.

but also that of others. Civics needs to be in the classroom as a matter of importance to the nation's development. It is not untrue to say that among those who hold positions in government, elected and appointed, are persons unaware of how the laws and systems of government ought to function. Imparting such knowledge from young would not only allows for an informed citizenry, but also influencing better understating of decisions taken, and decision-making when the time comes to serve. Formal education is the moulding of minds to understand and appreciate the world and one's contributions in the developmental processes, personal and otherwise. Guyana has her contributions to make to humankind and environmental development. Taking our place among the international community is reliant on the country's institutions, system of governance, and human relations to meaningfully participate within established and required standards. Historically, Guyanese are not only known for their brains, but also courtesy and respect for rules/laws, making us a valued and sought-after asset. Where there continues to be slippage, an education system has to factor in the importance of making it a priority. Efforts such as bringing private schools in compliance with the national education policy and upgrading the New Opportunity Corps are welcoming signs in quality assurance and improvement.

have mercy on his clients. He stated that the two were both sorry for what they did. Yao Liwei, through the translation of an interpreter, stated that he would like to return home to seek medical attention since he is suffering from pile. Fung-A-Fat added that both defendants admitted to paying a male US$2,000 each in China to for the visa, which they had applied online for. The prosecutor facts stated that the two entered Guyana at Moleson Creek after leaving Suriname.

They were outgoing passengers at the CJIA when they produced their passports to the Caribbean Airlines agent. Prior to them travelling to the airport, the officers at the airport were informed by their Canadian counterparts in Trinidad and Tobago that they suspected the two to be traveling with forge documents. The two were fined and failure to pay the fine w ould result in them being escorted to the nearest port of exit, where they will be deported.

That Government has accepted the importance of stakeholders in this year's theme says that it sees education as a collective societal responsibility. In this regard it is hoped that the psychosocial needs of the various demographics are being factored in. As important as it is to ensure every child gets the education he/she needs and is capable of, unhindered by economic status, geography or other challenges, the needs of those who cater for this population too have to be met. Our teachers/educators are very important in the frontline delivery of education and should feel they are important to the process. In the public education system, grumblings by teachers/lecturers and their unions as to the treatment being received by their employers regarding agreement and conditions of work cannot go un-noticed and unattended. The relationship between employer and employees is important for the child's learning and development and harmonious relationships work to the advantage of the system. In the community, the family, equally as neighbours, is an important stakeholder. Whereas parents shoulder primary responsibility to ensure the child is socialised with needed relational skills, attends school, is learning, completing assignments and maintaining relations with the school, the community carries oversight responsibility and denizens positive role models. In education, the African proverb "It takes a village to raise a child" remains applicable and doable.

Deonarine is wanted in connection with fraud. It is alleged that the former DCEO. along with President of the Federation of Independent Trade Unions of Guyana (FITUG) Carvil Duncan obtained $27.8M of GPL's money. The duo is accused of stealing money from the power company by paying themselves bonuses and transferring funds into their personal bank accounts without the approval of the

board of directors of the company. Charges of conspiracy were laid against Deonarine earlier this year but were withdrawn. He was charged with Duncan for conspiring to commit a felony. Duncan was alone in court to defend his charge while Deonarine fled. The money was discovered missing after auditors were examining GPL's accounts relative to the PetroCaribe Fund.

THE RUPUNUNI DEVELOPMENT COMPANY LIMITED INTERIM

FINANCIAL

REPORT

ASAT30 JUNE, 2016 CHAIRMAN'S REVIEW Dear Shareholders, I am pleased to present the report on the financial performance of the Company for the first six months of the financial year ended 30 June, 2016. Globally, growth prospects have weakened throughout the world economy. Emerging market and developing economies are facing stronger headwinds, including weaker growth among advanced economies and low commodity prices. The Guyanese Economy recorded 2.0 percent growth over the past six months, despite low returns in rice and sugar. The major contributors were the Mining sector, which recorded increased production of gold and the Services sector. The Agriculture, Fishing, and Forestry sectors contracted by 10 percent, despite growth in the Livestock, Other Crops, and Fishing subsectors. Notwithstanding the effects of El Nino on the Rice and Sugar industries, the Other Crops sector grew by 2 percent in the first half of the year. Turnover for the period was G$ 6.4m. The Company recorded a Loss After Taxation of G$ 3.5m. The Company continued to focus on mutually economically beneficial initiatives to support development in the neighboring indigenous communities. The El Nino climate experienced during the first half of the year, negatively impacted on the cattle mortality rate. Cattle rustling in the Savannah is a major concern for the Company. This situation results in financial losses and reduction in the value of the Biological Assets. Requests for assistance in reducing cattle rustling have been made at the regional level. Despite the challenges, the Board of Directors and Management remain committed to further developing the tourism operation and broadening our beef markets to enable the provision of attractive returns. Thank You Wilfred A. Lee Chairman, Board of Directors 14th September 2016

Food and Drug

Dept plagued with problems

~ director laments political interference By Svetlana Marshall THE Government Analyst Food and Drug Department (GA- FDD) is plagued with many problems ranging from insufficient resources to political interference, according to the Director Marian Cole. In a recent interview with the Guyana Chronicle. Cole contended that the department, which falls under the Public Health Ministry, is unable to effectively execute its mandate because of the lack of food and dmg inspectors coupled with poor remuneration. It was pointed out that while there are approximately 600 food importers, the national regulatory authority lias only six food inspectors and three dmg inspectors. "Drug is [sic] a billion-dollar industry in Guyana, and in our country [we have] only three drag inspectors. How three drag inspectors will inspect all of these bonds, all of these pharmacies, all these

Compounding the situation, Cole said, is the growing amount of counterfeit products on the local market. In order to bring some semblance of order in the local market, GA - FDD, he said accepts the Free Sale or Health Certificate from the country of origin, but tins too is faced with stumbling blocks. "This Free Sale Certificate ahests to the fact that the product is good, is manufactured under sanitary conditions and is assented to by a department like ours and says this is good," the director explained. The issuing or acceptance GA -FDD Director of the Free Sale or Health CerMarian Cole hospitals both public and pri- tificate is in keeping with the vate and ensure that we have statutory requirements as stated in the Laws of Guyana, Food safe drags on the market?" "It is difficult, it is impos- and Drag Act chapter 34:03 sible," the GA - FDD Director section (32) ii and the Food and Drag Regulation Number 13. said. These requirements are also Cole said for the department to effectively execute in keeping with the World Trade its function, it would need 24 Organisation (WTO)"s 1985 inspectors: a batch of 10 food ruling on sanitary and phyinspectors with two seniors, tosanitary measures to protect and a batch of 10 drag inspec- consumers from substandard items of foods traded across tors with two seniors.

borders. DISREGARD However, Cole is reporting that many importers disregard this legal requirement and even turn to politicians to bypass the system. "In a synopsis they are going to politicians to circumvent tins thing," he said, while noting that importers ought to remember that the requirement is in keeping with the Laws of Guyana and the World Trade Organisation. "If we get that document for every slupment that comes to Guyana, we will have some amount of guarantee that products coming from Malaysia, Singapore, Vietnam and Turkey are safe," the GA - FDD Director explained. He said according to the rales of the World Trade Organisation, monitoring agencies such as GA - FDD can

also visit the countries of origin to determine if their food products are safe for consmnption. "According to the World Trade Organisation s rale, before that sardine reaches to Guyana, we could demand that our inspectors leave Guyana with the support of the exporter or the importer and go to Thailand and inspect the factory, inspect the records, visit the regulatory agencies to ensure that in truth and in fact it is sardine [that] is [sic] being placed in the fins before being shipped to Guyana, we can demand that," he explained. 20 YEARS AGO The last time Guyana reportedly made such a request was approximately 20 years ago. However, recently Guyana was subject to one such inspection after Sterling Products Limited had indicated its intention to ship ice cream to Barbados. "Barbados inspectors came to Guyana, inspected Sterling's

premises, and inspected the Food and Drug Department to ensure that the records correlate before Sterling could have slupped one batch of ice cream to Barbados. It took them two years but in Guyana, contrary to all of tins, people does just wake up and decide, you know what, ocliro in tins gon sell in Guyana and are being sold in Singapore, I will slup it to Guyana." In a recent statement, the GA - FDD reminded importers that it would accept only original copies of documents for processing, and letters of commitment for future shipments (waivers) will no longer be accommodated or be used to facilitate items of foods to be released on the local market. The department stated that it will continue to work with all stakeholders to ensure that foods imported into Guyana are accompanied with the requisite documentation, according to the Laws of Guyana, and to ensure that consumers are protect-

THE RUPUNUNIDEVEI0PMINT CO. LTD 'Grey Boy' freed of Crum-Ewing's murder NOTES TO THE INTERIM FINANCIAL REPORT A GEORGETOWN Magistrate Wednesday freed "Grey Boy," the man accused of the March, 2015 murder of political activist Courtney Crum-Ewing, arguing that while the gun used in the murder was found at his home, the prosecution failed to pin him to the murder. Regan Anthony Rodrigues (Grey Boy) was freed of the charge after Magistrate Judy Latchman accepted the no-case submission filed by his Attorney Adrian Thompson. In her ruling. Magistrate Latchman said that while she was satisfied that the gun. which was used to shoot Crum-Ewing was found at the home of the accused, the evidence offered by the prosecution did not imphcate Rodrigues in the actual murder. As such, the Magistrate dismissed the murder charge against Rodrigues and informed him that he was a free man. Rodrigues. 37. is however still in prison as he is currently serving a threeyear sentence at the Camp Street prison for escaping lawful custody. At the end of the Preliminary Inquiry on Friday last. Thompson made his no-case submission, noting that the Prosecution failed to establish a prima facie case against Rodrigues. by being unable to establish that he

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Regan Rodrigues, known as ^Grey Boy' committed the offence. The lawyer also noted that the Prosecuhon also failed to present to the court a witness who saw what had transpired when Crum-Ewing was murdered. According to Thompson, the other evidence presented to the court were insufficient to prove that a prima facie case had been established against Rodrigues. In response to this submissioa Nigel Hughes. Special Prosecutor appointed to the case, noted that the accused admihed to the police that he owned the gun which was used in the murder and that it was for his protection. "He [Rodrigues] told the police that they can't turn him in with the gua because the gun do nuff thing." Hughes said. He further argued that when Crum-Ewing was killed, the gun was found in the possession of Rodrigues. Hughes urged the Magistrate to take into account Rodrigues' admission of pos-

Courtney Crum-Ewing sessing the gun for a number of years. Rodrigues was charged separately for the possession of an illegal gun and ammunitioa for which he was eventually found not guilty at the end of a trial before Magistrate Fabayo Azore. Rodrigues was charged with Crum-Ewing's murder on August 07. 2015. It was alleged that on March 10. at Diamond. East Bank Demerara. he murdered Crum-Ewing. The accused had told the court that "money was passed" and the real man that assassinated the political activist walked away scotch free. Crum-Ewing was assassinated while urging residents of Diamond to vote for the Opposition Coalition prior to the May 11, 2015 general and regional elections. He was shot five times, including three times to the head at point blank range.

The interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standards 34, Interim Financial Reporting and the provisions of the Securities Industry Act 1998.

literate people can do, which is [why] I gave the children these buttons so that they look towards the future... Education is going to be the springboard to employment in this region." President Granger also pledged his unwavering support to the region and the town to see it unlock its full potential. —

prison

balance

security

MINISTER of Public Security, Khemraj Ramjattan , on Wednesday charged 38 new recruits of the Guyana Prison Service (GPS) to keep a good balance between security and control and humanity and justice. He said balancing the acts is vital to the public service and public security sector. '"Within the limited resources that we provide these days, seek as best to provide decent conditions for the prisoners. Although we might not have the best physical infrastructure, you can meet their needs by being courteous, you can meet their health care needs by calling the relevant personnel instead of taking the 'don't care a damn" attitude. Help prisoners redress their behaviours, help the prisoners prepare for their return to society ... though young and inexperienced, you have to start learning/' Ramjattan charged the graduates to stand up to the difficulties, never give up as he noted the "very low salaries" that prison officers receive along with the number of prison officers to prisoners. "Ensure that the prisoners you keep remain in custody and that there are no break-outs and things of that nature. Maintaining order, control, discipline and a safe environment for yourself and prisoners is important, because when you do that you are maintaining a safer environment for the entire country, and when you do that, there are benefits ... it has very far- reaching effects," the minister stated.

maker's FIVE persons are in police custody after their colleague Elroy Lewis, 20, reportedly drowned at Sisters Village, during a return trip from across the Berbice River, where they had gone to catch iguanas. Lewis" family believes that his disappearance is due to foul play, even as the search for him continues. According to the young man's sister Jenica, she was in the hammock when a villager reported that her brother had gone fishing with him and jumped off the boat and drowned. The villager then walked calmly away after communicating the message. The teenager said she screamed on hearing the news, but managed to muster the courage to tell her father the tragic news that was related to her. Villagers subsequently told her told her to be calm as that information she received may not be true. But even with this assurance, a neighbour referred to as "Cliffo" said he did hear cries of Help! Help! but did not pay much heed to it. Reports are that six men, inclusive of the now missing man, had joined a motorised engine vessel for a place commonly referred to 'Kaman Sankar' to catch iguanas. The Guyana Chronicle was told that while close to the Sister's Village seashore, Lewis and two others

plunged overboard in pursuit of an iguana. The other two made it to the surface, but Lewis did not. Lewis" family believe that something 'fishy" happened. They claim that the story told to them by the men who went with Lewis is contradictory. They related that at one time they are told that Lewis alone jumped overboard and they tried to save him with outstretched paddles while another time they are hearing that several of them jumped overboard. Lewis" family also related that he never went to catch iguanas and it was strange that he went with the iguana catchers. The missing man's reputed wife Venita Ali said he left home on Tuesday just after 08:00hrs, but did not say where he was going and she assumed he was going to work. Lewis makes concrete blocks for a living but would do odd jobs in between. At his home on Wednesday evening, persons who gathered lauded him as a good young man with a bright future ahead. At the gathering, Lewis' family recalled that he and a known individual had a misunderstanding some time ago which led to him facing an assault charge.

MRS SITA Nagamootoo, wife of Prime Minister Moses Nagamootoo Wednesday distributed school supplies to the children of the Vergenoegen Nursery School in Region. With funds from the Ralph Joseph Charitable Foundation, named after a family friend. Ralph Joseph, formerly from Whim Village. Mrs. Nagamootoo has been visiting schools and communities distributing sport gears, books and school supplies, the Prime Minister's office stated in a press release. Mrs Nagamootoo was accompanied by the Prime Minister's Regional Representative for Region 3 Harry Deokinanan, District Education Officer Ann Boston and Headmistress of the nursery school. Sharon Bascom. The visit to the school coincides with Education Month 2016. which is currently being observed and Mrs. Nagamootoo believes that the timing is appropriate. "I thought it would be a good thing to come out and meet with the teachers and move around with the children." Mrs Nagamooto said. Recently Mrs. Nagamootoo has been observing Literacy Day and Education Month by visiting various schools in Berbice. Demerara and Essequibo. "She has brought joy to children by starting early childhood education in Shieldstown. Albouystown. Bel Air Village. Bath Auchlyne and now Vergenoegen." the Prime Minister's office stated.

A schoolgirl from Charity beams with joy after receiving a new pair of shoes

and Berbice THE Come Alive Network Incorporated (CANI) last Saturday completed their annual "Come Alive" Shoe Drive, providing 80 pairs of shoes to less fortunate children in Charity and Berbice. In each of the communities visited, the volunteers gave each child deemed "needy" a new pair of shoes to equip them for the new school term and year. Notably, in Charity some 50 children betw een the ages of 3-15 were recipients of new pairs of shoes, while in New Amsterdam another 30 children were also able to receive a new pair of shoes each. The children in New Amsterdam also benefitted from lunch packs donated by Singers. The team of Youth Volunteers also engaged the children in fun activities and held discussions to enlighten the children about the importance of education. The Executive Director of CANI. Ryan Hoppie. noted that they have "a network within the community" which encompasses the community leaders and social protection officers within the area. This network is able to identify the needy children and disseminate their genders and sizes, so the CANI team was able to source the shoes for the children. A team from the organization usually goes out to the targeted areas and presents each child with a pair of shoes. This is the third year CANI conducted the shoe drive in Charity, while they were in Berbice for the first time. Over the past few weeks, the youth organization had reached out to the public and requested donations of Black School Shoes or donations of $2360 GYD (or $12 USD) to purchase a pair of shoes. While there was some degree of public response, the Shoe Drive was also supported by Footsteps and Singers. In previous years. CANI was able to donate some 700 new pairs of school shoes along with stationery to less fortunate children in various communities across Guyana. The youth organization also held a 'self-worth' Creative Response workshop while in Berbice on, in observance of World Suicide Prevention Day. The workshop, which was held at the Berbice Chamber of Commerce in New Amsterdam, targeted persons aged 15-30.

Most Americans disagree iMlth

Kaepemick, but respect his right to protest By Amy Tennery NEW YORK, NY (Reuters) - Most Americans think San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick's refusal to stand for the national anthem is unpatriotic but support his right to free speech, while nearly half do not think the National Football League should penalise him, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll released yesterday. The opinion poll found that 61 percent of Americans said they do not agree with Kaepemick, who has taken a knee during the L Star-Spangled Banner' in protest of racial injustice and police brutality. Explore the polling results here polling.renters, com/#! poll/TM994Y 164 While Kaepemick has inspired other players to refuse to stand during the national anthem, 72 percent of Americans said they thought it was unpatriotic. Even so, 64 percent of respondents said they felt the quarterback had the right to protest under the U.S. Constitution, which guarantees freedom of speech. And 46 percent said he should not be penalised by the NFL, which so far has said that there is no specific rale that requires players to stand during the anthem. NFL commissioner

Nancy Flarms, a farmer in Iowa, told Reuters she strongly Heroes' Weekend believed Kaepemick should stand for the anthem as someone "born and raised in this celebration for country." But she said his protest was a fair exercise of freedom of speech. Jamaica's Rio Olympic stars

"I have the freedom of speech also and I say, 'you're wrong'," Flarms, 57, added. Reaction to Kaepemick split sharply along racial lines in the poll. While some 70 percent of respondents who identified as white said they disagreed with Kaepemick, that number dropped to 40 percent of respondents who identified as a racial minority. Kaepemick has the right to say what he wants, said Thomas Flolland, 72, who identifies as white. Fie said the protest was disrespectful toward the armed forces 'There are different ways to protest than to disrespect the flag," said Flolland, a retiree from Virginia Beach. Terri Barbour, 42, who identifies as an African-American, said she supports Kaepemick. She said it was "everyone's individual right" whether to stand for the anthem.

THE Jamaican government is planning a special event to celebrate the success of its athletes at the Olympic Games in Rio, Brazil, next month. The event will be held during the National Heroes Weekend. October 15-17. said Minister of Sport Olivia Grange at a special ceremony hosted by Digicel at the Norman Manley International Airport in Kingston to welcome home six of the athletes on Tuesday night. The minister said further details would be made available in the coming days. Jamaica won six gold, three silver and two bronze medals at the Games mirroring the success it achieved in Beijing in 2008. The haul saw Jamaica finish third in track and field in terms of medals won and third in terms of placings. Jamaica had more than 20 athletes in finals in Rio. Among the athletes, who returned home Tuesday evening following successful campaigns at the Games and on the Diamond League cir-

cuit. were double Olympic gold medallist and Diamond League 100-metre champion Elaine Thompson; Olympic 400-metre bronze medallist and mile-relay silver medallist Shericka Jackson; Olympic mile-relay silver-medallist and Diamond League champion Stephenie-Ann McPherson; Olympic sprint-relay silver medallist Christania Williams. Julian Forte, and Megan Simmonds. The athletes are all members of the MVP Track Club, headed by Stephen Francis, who also arrived home with the contingent. President of the Jamaica Athletics Administrative Association (JAAA) praised the athletes and their coach. He thanked coach Francis for the hard work he has put in over the years and expressed his gratitude on behalf of the JAAA with whom the coach has had a few ran-ins over the years. He noted that the athletes present, by virtue of the number of medals they won between them, would

have finished seventh on the medal table in Rio. Francis was also praised by Minister Grange, who implored him to accept a national honour, the likes of which has already been bestowed upon Glen Mills, who coaches nine-time Olympic gold medallist Usain Bolt. Francis has on several occasions before declined offers to accept a national honour for his outstanding work as one of the best coaches in the world. The minister also said the government was committed to putting in world class facilities befitting of a country that produces so many world class athletes. She explained that similar ceremonies were not held for other athletes who have already returned home because some preferred to slip in quietly while the Government was not aware when others had arrived. She explained that MVP track club was gracious enough to reach out to her ministry to let them know when their athletes would be arriving.

New president says UEFA must show leadership NEW president Aleksander Ceferin said UEFA must show Europe's big clubs who is in charge as he made Champions League reforms his first priority. Ceferin. 48. beat Michael van Praag 42-13 in the poll to become the new head of European football's governing body. UEFA and European clubs last month agreed changes to the Champions League, which critics said favour bigger clubs. Slovenian Ceferin said his organisation should show the clubs "we are the ones who are the governing body". Under the reforms announced last month, Europe's top four domestic leagues will be guaranteed four places each in the group stages of the Champions League from 2018 to 2019. The European Professional Football League (EPFL). which represents the continent's 24 domestic football leagues, called on UEFA to

Newly elected UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin of Slovenia is congratulated after the election during the UEFA Extraordinary Congress in Athens, Greece yesterday. (REUTERS/Alkis Konstantinidis) scrap the proposals, claiming after being banned from all dealing with this. football activity last year. national leagues will suffer. "We have to speak and "UEFA is a very good, "It will be the first thing to deal with," said Ceferin, strong organisation. It was have dialogue with the clubs and I think it can be solved." who succeeds Michel Plati- without leadership for some Ceferin. who has been ni following his resignation time and that was a problem the head of the Football Association of Slovenia since 2011. takes on the remainder

of Platini's term of office, until 2019. The lawyer said Financial Fair Play rules - introduced, in UEFA'S words, to "improve the overall financial health of European club football" should be enforced more strongly. He added there was "a lot of work to do", citing match-fixing, security and safety, and racism as issues to address. England's Football Association last week declared its support for van Praag, who - unlike Ceferin - is a member of UEFA'S executive committee. The Scottish Football Association said it would vote for the Slovenian. After the vote, FA chairman Greg Clarke said he was happy to work with Ceferin, and welcomed his clear mandate. MY CONSCIENCE IS CLEAR - PLATINI Platini earlier said his "conscience is clear" as he spoke to European football's governing body for what is

likely to be the last time. World governing body FIFA gave the Frenchman nermission to speak at the meeting in Athens. The 61-year-old was last year banned from all football activity for breaching ethics rules over a £L3M "disloyal payment" made to him in 2011 by then FIFA president Sepp Blatter. "I am certain that I committed not the slightest fault," he said. "I am continuing to fight legally. Just simply know that my conscience is clear.

Russian (REUTERS) - Confidential athlete medical data relating to last month's Rio Olympics has been hacked and published by a Russian cyber espionage group with the threat of more to come, the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) has said. It identified the group as Tsar Team (APT28). also known as Fancy Bear. The website said it had information about a number of U.S. athletes, including tennis sisters Serena and Venus Williams as well as multiple gold medal-winning gymnast Simone Biles. "WADA condemns these ongoing cyber-attacks that are being carried out in an attempt to undermine WADA and the global anti-doping system," said director general Olivier Niggli in a statement that did not name any athletes.

Also, players said, since the end of July, when player contracts expired, there has been no indication on when new ones will be issued at either national or domestic level. Nationally-contracted players were given a month's extension on their deals which covered the New Zealand series in July-August, but the situation at domestic level remains unclear after ZC announced it would move from a franchise to a provincial sys-

tem this summer. No fixtures have been released yet. When contacted for a comment, ZC spokesperson Darlington Majonga said: "The players have asked ZC for an update on new contracts and their delayed match fees, but to equate their honest request for an engagement on the important issues to an ultimatum of some sort would be kind of making a mountain out of a molehill. "What is important is that their contracts are ready following an all-inclusive negotiation process that involved representatives of the players. On the other issue, ZC has been paying the match fees in tranches and will settle the outstanding amounts soon."

English counties vote in favour of eight-team T20 tournament ENGLISH cricket has taken a step closer to introducing an eight-team Twenty20 tournament, in the style of the Big Bash and Indian Premier League, following a vote at Lord's. In a statement on Wednesday, the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) confirmed the proposed event - to run in addition to the existing T20 Blast that features all 18 first-class counties - had been agreed upon in a meeting of county chairmen and chief executives. MCC and the Professional Cricketers' Association (PCA).

Further consultation on the proposal will now take place, before the matter is formally considered by the ECB board next month. ECB chairman Colin Graves said: "We've all been looking at how we can use domestic T20 for an even bigger purpose, especially getting more young people to play. "This format was invented here and is successful worldwide. It can excite newfans. attract the best players and fuel the future of the game, on and off the pitch.

last-gasp

2-1 win

By Richard Martin BARCELONA, Spain (Reuters) - Late strikes from Cristiano Ronaldo and Alvaro Morata gave Real Madrid a last-gasp 2-1 win over Sporting Lisbon as the European champions came from behind to win the first game of their Champions League defence. Ronaldo denied Ms Portuguese boyhood club a famous win by scoring an equaliser from a free-kick in the 89th minute just when it seemed Madrid could, sensationally, lose their opemng game in Group F. Morata then headed home deep in injury time to complete the fightback. "We didn't start the game well but Real Madrid are famous for comebacks like these and we leave here very happy," said Morata. "We always beheved in ourselves and we proved that you can always win a game until the referee blows the final wliistle. Football is not always fair but it was fundamental to win and that's what we've done." Brazilian Bruno Cesar had earlier given the visitors a surprise yet deserved lead in the 47th minute as he pounced on indecision in the Real back line. Real took their time to respond to going beliind with Ronaldo missing a gilt-edged chance to level when he strack

Real had gone into the game on top of La Liga after a convincing 5-2 win over Osasuna but met a welldrilled Sporting side who flooded the midfield with bodies and frequently won possession back, launching quick and dangerous breaks. The first of these breakaways came early in the game and led to Cesar's trying his

luck from the edge of the area, firing narrowly wide of Kiko Casilla's right-hand post. Real struggled to find solutions to Sporting's strategy and were limited to shots from distance, like one stinging effort from Ronaldo which Rui Patricio tipped over the bar. Gareth Bale had looked Real's liveliest player in the first lialf but was on the wrong end of a painfiil challenge from

Sebastian Coates, who kneed the Wales international in the midriff. Bale was taken off in the second period along with Karim Benzema, who looked far from peak fitness. Zidane's double substitution had a tangible impact on the game, however, with Lucas Vazquez giving Real extra energy while Morata added extra power in the area.

LONDON, England (Reuters) - First-half goals by Bernardo Silva and Thomas Lemar earned Monaco a surprise 2-1 win over Tottenham Hotspur in their Champions League Group E opener at Wembley Stadium yesterday, to silence the London club's record 'home' attendance. Goals from Bernardo Silva and Thomas Lemar stunned the vast majority of the 85 011 fans at the national stadium ~ Tottenham's adopted home for this season's Champions League - before the hosts responded. Toby Alderweireld halved the deficit with a header shortly before halftime and Tottenham were much better after the break. Yet. despite plenty of pressure they were unable to find the equaliser as only

their second Champions League campaign began in disheartening fashion. "Scoring creates momentum and we dominated the game in the second half. We had chances but we couldn't score." Spurs defender Alderweireld said. "We put a lot of energy in but we couldn't force it." Tottenham's record attendance for a 'home' fixture produced a wall of sound under the Wembley arch in the opening minutes as Mauricio Pochettino's team started quickly. But near-silence descended on the huge stadium when Monaco took the lead with their first real incursion after 15 minutes following an error by Erik Lamela. The Argentine playmaker carelessly gave the ball away in his own half and Portugal international Bernardo Silva ran on unopposed before smashing a

shot past Hugo Lloris. The hosts struggled to regain any momentum on the wide expanses of Wembley's pitch and Monaco looked increasingly comfortable on a sultry night that felt more like the Riviera than London. The visitors doubled their lead in the 31st minute with a goal Tottenham's defence will not want to view again. Djibril Sidibe slung in a hopeful cross and it rebounded off the body of Spurs left back Ben Davies. As the ball dropped down Monaco substitute Lemar. on for the injured Nabil Dirar. reacted quickest and shot high into the roof of the net. A tiny travelling pod of Monaco fans numbering no more than 350 celebrated at the other end but it was the vast home majority who found their voices again just before halftime when

Lamela's comer was headed powerfully home by Alderweireld. Dele Alii was desperately close to equalising in first-half stoppage time, stretching to reach a Lamela cross. Tottenham were re-energised at the start of the second half and Alii brought a superb save from Danijel Subasic after letting fly with a dipping volley from 25 metres. Harry Kane then found himself clear on goal but delayed his shot far too long and was closed down. Kane wasted an even better chance with 12 minutes remaining, shooting straight at Subasic from in front of goal. Monaco, who knocked Arsenal out in the last-16 two seasons ago, saw out the final minutes with no more scares.

Simmons'

'align' WICB chief executive officer Michael Muirhead has said there was no one specific reason for the termination of coach Phil Simmons' contract, nor was it a sudden development. In a nutshell, Muirhead said, Simmons" vision did not "align" with the strategic approach of the WICB and the divide widened over the past few months, reaching a point where a final decision had to be made. The decision to relieve Simmons of the job was taken by the board of directors at the quarterly WICB meeting last weekend in Dominica. It is understood the directors were asked to vote on the matter, but Muirhead would not reveal whether it was a unanimous decision to terminate Simmons' contract. "It was the board's decision. Let us leave it at that," Muirhead told ESPNcricinfo. Asked whether it was his appraisal that eventually led to the decision, Muirhead did not

But Muirhead and the board of directors remained unconvinced. "Ultimately it is the performance of the team, and we want the team to perform the best it can do," Muirhead said. "Was it (doing so) is a question that is still unanswered." Technically, Muirhead was not Simmons" boss. It was Richard Pybus, the WICB director of cricket. Simmons had mentioned in an interview that he and Pybus were not on the same page. "Relationship is a difficult word," he had said of Pybus, soon after the World T20 triumph. "He communicates via emails but he lias not spoken to me since the suspension. It's sad because this is not about him or me, this is about West Indies cricket." At last weekend's meetings, the board discussed

Pybus" report was an overall review of cricket across the Caribbean, not limited to the West Indies teams and coaching staff. Reiterating the lack of aligmnent in strategies, Muirhead said: "It has been an ongoing tiling where I think Phil, in all that he lias said and done, he lias not aligned ... the relationships were breaking down. I think he himself had ideas for a different strategic approach, notwithstanding one already having been approved and adopted by the board. I don't think he was aligned with that." In a media release sent out on Tuesday, the WICB had pointed out it had identified "differences in culture" as one reason behind the friction between both parties. Muirhead elaborated: "The other thing was the work culture was a little different. "It was how we do busi-

ness, how we execute tilings. It was an organisational culture. It was not the difference in ethnic culture as lias been pointed out elsewhere." Muirhead said he had had conversations with Simmons, and he had to intervene on quite a few occasions to resolve issues. Hie last time they had met was about two months ago, he said. When he called Simmons on Tuesday to reveal the board's decision, he said the chat was "cordial" and not "hostile" in any way. Muirhead pointed out it was a "matter of coincidence" that the Simmons" termination was announced the day the West Indies limited-overs squad left for the UAE to play Pakistan. "The sanctions and other things could not be discussed without the board meeting. We have board meetings every three months, where we discuss everything including the performance of the teams and the coaching staff." (ESPN Cricinfo)

Sammy Heroes' Weekend slams Simmons celebration for Jamaica's sacking DARREN Sammy has lashed out at the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) for ending Phil Simmons' contract by stating "if the blind leads the blind they are bound to fall into a pit." The WICB announced on Tuesday that head coach Simmons' tenure had come to an immediate end only five months after he guided the Winches to the World Twenty20 title. That announcement was made just a week before the first game of the Winches' torn of the United Arab Emirates to take on Pakistan. Simmons' exit came a year after he was suspended for criticising the selection of the one-day international squad to tour Sri Lanka and the WICB put his departure down to "differences in culture and strategic approach". Sammy was sacked as West Indies T20 captain last month and the former skipper made it clear what he thought of the decision to axe Simmons. "So after the publicity stunt in Fort Lauderdale (where the Windies played two T20s against India last month), the first so-called plan to move West Inches Cricket forward is to fire the coach just two days before a tour.. just proves to me what I already knew." the all-rounder posted on Facebook. "If the blind leads the blind they are bound to fall into a pit." The Windies will be managed by Joel Garner in the UAE, with Henderson Springer and Roddy Estwick coaching. (Sportsmax.com)
