RESIDENTS of Karawab Amerindian community in the Upper Pomeroon River have supported a call made by Region 2 Chairman Parmanand Persaud for the ruling PPP/C party to be given another term in office to continue the massive development that has transformed the country during the last 22 years.Regional Chairman Persaud who visited the community, located some 75 miles from Chairty, on Friday to commission two projects told residents that the party deserves another term in office because of development that can be seen in every area across the country. The statement by the Chairman was met with thunderous applause from the large gathering of residents in the community center.

Persaud reminded Amerindians that the government has always delivered on its promise and Karawab has benefited significantly in terms of development under the PPP/C government. The Chairman said the community has its own primary and nursery schools, pavilion, health center, solar power electricity and community kitchen.
Residents who have pledged their continued support to the People’s Progressive Party/Civic said they have witnessed massive development not only in their community but across the country. They said the Government has done well and deserve a another term to continue developing the country.
One resident said more could have been achieved under President Donald Ramotar leadership but the two opposition parties APNU and AFC with their one-seat majority has blocked several important projects that would have benefited all Guyanese.
He said the PPP/C must return to the government with a bigger majority in Parliament to compete the stalled projects and Karawab residents will give full support to the ‘cup’.
