Ambassador Brent Hardt,

I’m a little curious, but my inherited love for exploration didn’t allow me to get confused without seeking explanation. So, is it possible for us to take yet another walk, but this time on a road?
However, this will not be a walk on the four-lane roads that the Government has constructed, but on the road of controversy and enlightenment. Based on what I saw in a photograph, and based on your pronouncement, am I to assume that the information that you’re putting in the public domain is gathered by the people that you’re associated with?
And I have noticed that you have been associating with a lot of people, including two well-known anti-government critics and activists, one of whom is CN Sharma, and the other treason accused, Mark Benschop.
Firstly, Mark Benschop is a known political activist whose hatred towards the PPP Government over the years has been blatant and disrespectful. Secondly, CN Sharma is the CEO of yet another free and functioning private media entity in Guyana; he is a vocal critic of the PPP government and, along with his son, is an Opposition member. CN Sharma is currently facing charges for statutory rape.
So, Mr. Ambassador, in Guyanese parlance, we say one’s company speaks of his/her disposition. Am I to believe that by your close association with these two persons, the American Government is condoning the type of things that these men have been accused of?
