-PM Phillips says PPP remains connected with the people and continues crafting policies for the people

POSITIONING the ruling People’s Progressive Party/Civic (PPP/C) as the only true national movement in Guyana, Prime Minister Brigadier (R’td) Mark Phillips said that the party has “delivered on the plan for prosperity.”

Speaking at the PPP/C’s manifesto launch today, the Prime Minister highlighted how diverse the audience that gathered was.

He said, “We have farmers, we have fishermen, we have captains of business. We have public servants. We have teachers, we have nurses. I can see all of you people from all professional backgrounds, religions, religious leaders, and the list goes on.

“Thank you for being here today to listen to the plans of the only national party of Guyana, a party that represents all the people of Guyana, a party that empowers and puts in the forefront our youth, our women. A party that I will always say is colour blind when it comes to making policy and implementing those policies.”

The Prime Minister highlighted how the country has been lifted off of the back burners of development reeling from disastrous policies that stifled different areas such as rice farming.

PM Phillips also pointed to the development taking place across Guyana.

“You go all over Guyana, every village, every community you see, infrastructure development, new roads, not only highways,” he stated.

The Prime Minister further stressed that the party has always remained connected with the people, with President Dr. Irfaan Ali leading the charge.

“We, as a government, has remained grounded, a people center government, a government that was with the people when we were in opposition and we remain connected with the people after we were elected to office. It’s not a case of you electing us and we retreated to our air conditioned offices. We remain connected with the people,” he said.
