Reply to "Guyanese needed in Barbados to work."

I am in favour of Guyanese canecutters securing similar jobs in Barbados as MIGRANT WORKERS. Canecutting is a skill. The work is seasonal, meaning that there is no pay some months every year. I see nothing wrong with him working in Barbados canefields to supplement his income in Guyana. As a rule in many countries, migrant workers are housed in barrack/communal conditions. That is the reality. Provided that a Guyanese canecutter has no plans to settle permanently in Barbados, he has no cause to worry about social stigma. A canecutter earns an honest day's pay for an honest day's work. That's the source of his dignity. This has nothing to do with PPP or PNC.
