Excerpt from Odeen's History of Guyana.
Calling on Indians not to support the PPP, Daniel Debedin of the UFWP urged then to βvote for your ownβ, thus giving origin to the racist Hindi slogan of βApan Jhaatβ.
Based on the discussin we were having here it looks like Debedin started the Apan Jhaat, not Rai as I think was concluded in that thread.
