On Arrival Day… PPP calls on all Guyanese to ensure our gains are preserved

THE People’s Progressive Party (PPP) salutes all Guyanese on the occasion of Arrival Day which is being observed on May 5.

This is indeed a good time to reflect on the long and difficult road we have traversed over the decades and the enormous sacrifices made by our fore-parents to forge a society which today we can all be proud of.

We all owe a great debt of gratitude to our fore-parents who came from India, China, Portugal and other distant lands to work as indentured labourers following the abolition of slavery.

Together with our African brothers and sisters who came to the colony as slaves, they have carved a nation and a society on the anvil of extraordinary pain and suffering.

It had always been the dream of our fore-parents to forge a free, independent, cohesive and prosperous Guyana, one that the PPP is fully committed to.

As we observe another Arrival Day. the PPP pledges to continue to work tirelessly to build on the achievements we have collectively made as a nation.

The PPP takes this opportunity to call on all Guyanese to ensure that the social, economic and political gains we have made over the years are preserved and consolidated, especially at this time when the Guyanese people face the polls on May 11, 2015.

Today we live in what is seen as a culturally rich and diverse country. We are truly blessed with a country that has become a model of cross-cultural co-existence, despite the efforts of misguided and opportunistic elements in our society to divide our people for narrow partisan interests.

The PPP is convinced that such efforts will not succeed and that Guyanese will vote on May 11 in overwhelming numbers for a continuation of the peace, progress and prosperity that we have experienced over the past twenty-three years.
