ABIDHA: "A man who reads a lot, his experience is based on theory. Try tothink like an Astronaut who reaches to the heavens to see thingsfirst hand."

PRK: I never thought the day would come when senior Indian Guyanese government officials would denigrate reading. It is a sad testimony to the mentality PPP has imposed on us. My teacher always implored us to read. Today PPP is telling us reading is a problem. What a sad people we are.

There you have it folks. That is the mentality of the people who govern Guyana. Did your school teacher say reading is bad?

he is an ass, Reading is akin to conversation with the author. It is a most direct conversation and if the writer is an expert  then that book would have offered a view into his world view.

 

Only fools abhor books. Had some of the pppites truly took to books we would not have a morally reprehensible cabal in office feasting on our nation's bones. A little bit  of Kant would have done them well.

Sad...sad statement indeed. But it reveals the mindset of Freedom House. I will share some personal stories I had regarding this same matter.

All of you are taking Abidah's statement out of context. What I understood is that he was making a reference to TK about theory vs being practical. I haven't seen anywhere that he implied that reading is bad. This PRK character wants to politicized the idea to blame the government on the education front. This is quite embarrassing your part, folks.
