Does PPP not know why there is no Opposition objection to these sectors?

MORE than 90 percent who work in these sectors are Opposition supporters. Even if they become the highest paid workers in Guyana they will still cry about their being ‘marginalised, depressed, compressed and discriminated against, and PNC in parliament will hound PPP to death for more money for them; if not, it will be ‘slo fiah and mo fiah’ to make the country ungovernable and more threats that if the PPP wins elections and don’t share power with the PNC there will be no Guyana. Talk about barefaced bullies!!!!! They are right though, since the majority ethnic group and others have no one to fight for them at their own level.

The allocations for the Security Sector were unquestioned in the National Assembly on Thursday night, and Speaker of the National Assembly, Mr. Raphael Trotman made a point to note to the various security sector Heads that they have the full support of the House, meaning PNC, which Trotman is still a part of.
The current and capital expenditures approved related to the Home Affairs Secretariat services, Guyana Police Force, Guyana Prison Service, Police Complaints Authority, Guyana Fire Service, General Registrar’s Office and the Customs Anti-Narcotics Unit (CANU).

The CANU vote had been expected to attract some degree of scrutiny in light of the many references by Members of Parliament (MPs) to Guyana’s economic success being advanced by “drug money” and narco-trading, but not a word was uttered against the passage of funding for this entity, which speaks to the hypocrisy of the joint Opposition in an obvious pre-arranged support to these sectors.
The case of the kidnapped victim is another instance where Indo-Guyanese have cause to distrust the police, because reports indicate that they were told where the kidnap victim was being held; yet they did not search the house until it was too late.
People are saying that the police did not act quickly because they knew the kidnapped and murdered victim was East Indian. Also, because of their delay in acting on the tip there is suspicion that the police knew the perpetrators and must have been waiting for the ransom to be paid before moving in to get their cut of the pie. Police criminality is a fact, and they have to work hard to dispel this image from the eyes of the public.

This is why the Americans took taxpayers’ money and ran back to America after telling them he knows how to make 911 work; but 911 can’t work if those who supposed to pick up the phone when it rings do not pick it up and answer, or do not respond to calls for help, even while the acts are being committed.
And when and if they do answer a 911 call, they ask the caller for name, address, and location; and once it is an Indo-Guyanese you can bet your life the police will show up many hours after the fact: so that is why I say the PPP and Minister Rohee are not getting the big picture as yet.
In relation to the drug trafficking through our airport many hired crooks are working with the airport narco trade.
The Peeper hit the nail bang on its head with this observation. Many others and myself are so scared to be at CJIA because of those that are hired to work there because you never know when they can slip something in a suitcase to make life horrible for some people.

Remember a certain conversation between a former Police Commissioner and a big one in the Opposition.
I often say that those who work at our airports must be shifted around on a constant basis, and their cell phones must be taken during their work hours. Loitering in our airport and banks must be a no, no -100%.
This is scary stuff now, because the bandits are being tipped off about potential victims who made withdrawals and who arrived with stuff from overseas.
Cocaine in awara; cocaine in fish; cocaine in pumpkin; cocaine in false bottom suitcase; cocaine in lumber; cocaine in coconut milk; cocaine in liquor; cocaine in shoes; cocaine in glue; cocaine in achar; cocaine in pineapple; cocaine in genip; cocaine in scrap iron.
Now we learn about cocaine in cheese rolls and pine tarts. What next? You name it and the cocaine smugglers have tried it. It seems as if any and everything can be used to conceal illegal narcotics.
This is why it is so frightening to even travel. And why travellers have to take extraordinary precautions when going overseas because you never know when someone can slip something, plant something, or ask you to carry something and unknown to you those things contain illicit substances.
