Granted, FCH was not well thought out and rolled out too q
Ok, lets talk how we get out of the ethno-political environment.
I have had my say in this, as have you. I look forward to the PPP supporters. Gilbakka says that all the PPP needs to do is outreach, precisely what Volda said that the PNC ought to do as well. Both the PNC and the PPP are defined by cronyism and ethnic pandering, but the PPP types will never admit that.
They need to start from the premise that both blacks and Indians have valid reasons for their ethno political behavior based on what they have experienced.
Now my thinking is moving towards maintaining the caretaker gov't operating under an interim "board" with equal representation by both the Coalition and the PPP. This until a new constitution is developed, because one cannot continue to do the same thing over and over and expect a different result.
Every report out of Guyana shows increasing tensions motivated by fear and until we address the underlying reasons for fear. These being ECONOMIC, then the tassa and kwekwe drums will be pounding against each other.
I suggest that people look at France. The 7th largest economy in the world and yet now in a cauldron of trouble. Macron came in and refused to engage the population. France 24 (available on YouTube) has much on this and I suggest that this is something for Guyanese to view.
