The serious crime that we have in Guyana today has its roots in the drug trade. Once Jagdeo made exportation of cocaine an industry in Guyana, it brought crime as it did in every one of our neighboring countries.
But we don't have this issue now. They say that narco and money laundering plus crime are down. So we should be seeing growth but that nah happening.
Isn't it obvious to you that if you reduce earnings from the drug trade, it would affect growth negatively? We're having positive growth every year. Where have you been looking?
IF. That is not evidence. I didn't mean that we don't have growth. The topic was about 2017 performance of 2.1% growth vs projections of 2.9% and previous year of 3.3%. The narco excuse was a weak one.
PNC campaigned on giving utopia to the Guyanese people. Sugar will live forever, paddy will be sold for $9000.00 per bag, there will be lots of jobs created. What happened to the promises???? The drug trade is alive and thriving in Guyana. The corrupted PNC police take their share and turn a blind eye.
