Reply to "PPP members waving party flag and singing the party song over dead body at Funeral House."

Essentially, Seetaram is dealing out red herrings to divert attention from the state-owned GuySuco's mass sacking of sugar workers. Seetaram is using the PPP and GAWU as scapegoats too. I can attest to the fact that traditionally the PPP has honored many ordinary and mid-level party members with the party flag and song at their funerals. That noble tribute is not reserved for top-tier party members only. One such funeral I attended in 1983, that of a lower-level member named Lionel Jaikarran. Cheddi Jagan himself spoke at that funeral.

Honestly, I don't know the background of the recently deceased man in Berbice but I am reasonably assuming that he was a PPP and/or GAWU activist.
