SO Mr. Granger will not be moved by any “bogus deadlines” regarding the passage of anti-money laundering bill, even though news reports says that CFATF still insists on a definitive date of enactment by the time officials again meet in November.
What is so “bogus” about this date, escapes rational minds. Even stranger, is why Mr. Granger did not check with the CFATF, if he wanted to prove this date meant nothing?

He claims that he is guided by the precepts of good governance and want to ensure that the errors in past was not repeated. He is seeking input from the general society for a foolproof law. In the meantime he is doing a lot of corrective surgery to other bills with errors over the last 20 years.

Whether, waiting for his foolproof bill is worth the non-compliance action by CFATF and harm to Guyana, will have to be decided by his supporters that still reason for themselves. Hopefully, he is also consulting the general society about all these past laws, since they may not share his opinions. With all these corrections, it seems there will be no time for long recesses or short sessions this year in parliament. With so much work to do in the past, current business may have to wait a lot longer. It seems that Mr. Granger is more interested in undoing the past government bills and projects than modifying or improving them in the present. It is amazing how so many Guyanese refuse to believe that the opposition seems more bent on power than progress.
