THE Alliance For Change extends warm greetings to all Guyanese at home and abroad on the auspicious occasion of Holi.

Holi is a time of renewal of new beginnings, and we take great pleasure in joining with our Guyanese brothers and sisters to celebrate this Festival of Colours.

Holi or Phagwah is a story of true faith and devotion to the creator. It tells of an evil king who wanted to be worshiped as a God, but his very own son refused to worship him and as a result escaped the fiery death his father had devised for him.

It is a story of man’s ego and arrogance and the pitfalls that await those who would seek to elevate themselves to God-like status.

This year, as we observe Holi let us remind ourselves of the omnipotence of the creator. Happy Holi to all Guyanese.
