@Former Member Let's not go down the ole 'whiteman' route he's clearly qualified and comes with no baggage.
Imagine the noise if a Guyanese had managed to secure the position...'Oh I know his sisters cousins brother who walked by a PNC rally he must be a PNC racist !! Oh I met his dads brothers son in law who was in class with a PPP member ..HE MUST BE PPP RACIST !!!
We don't have the maturity (unfortunately) to not see political demons behind every corner .
It's a good appointment, lets give credit where credit is due at this stage

Maybe drugb has a point, was there an attempt to find a Guyanese born candidate? But indeed Wilks appears to be qualified for the task at hand given his experience in other oil ventures.
