Dear Editor,While the politicians squabble for power, Guyana and Guyanese are being left behind in development.What is needed is someone (or a group of people) with a vision on how to get Guyana developed so that we close this massive gap.When I talk about a massive gap, I mean Guyana does not manufacture calculators, computers, ships, cars, aircraft, space crafts, etc. Yet, we can be very pretentious in pretending that since we can buy these things (to a certain extent) we are doing okay.What Guyanese need to do is to first map the technology.As an example, we start simple, by having a farm which produces fruits, vegetables and ground provisions in a large-scale as this tends to reduce prices. Then we look at – say from cherry – producing jams, juices and fruit salads (we can do the same with many other fruits…like pineapple). With rice farms already in existence, we should be looking to manufacture rice cereal (pop rice), rice cakes, etc.With timber, we should be looking to produce logs, furniture, house frames, paper, etc.In this way, we can turn Guyana into a manufacturing centre. What is needed is the political will, the understanding of how to transmit this information of manufacturing to the farmers, etc.It is all good and proper to say plant plantain and make plantain chips but people need to be taught how to do these things as well as have enough financial resources to live on while their businesses develop.It is no good saying plant plantain and make plantain chips to a small farmer because to be commercially feasible you need medium- to large-scale farms.We can do this with most technologies like bauxite, to an alumina plant to aluminium (I do not suggest that we start building an alumina plant as it is too costly). The good thing is that Guyanese do not need to research and develop the technologies as they are already in existence.What is needed is the political will to understand that you need to teach people how to produce cherry jam, cherry juice, fruit salad, etc. Or, would Guyanese prefer to remain in stasis? I think not!Yours faithfully,Sean Ori
Dear Editor,Guyana’s Minister of Finance, Winston Jordan, is currently before the Judiciary for Contempt of Court. Thus far, the Judges have fearlessly rejected the contention that Executive Officers of the State are immune from “contemptus curial”, in the discharge of their official functions. A Stay of Execution sought by the contemner against the subject order was refused by an appellate court. The Attorney General has signalled an intention to appeal, rather than comply with the Order of Court. In my respectful view, the Attorney General is leading his Executive colleague willingly to the slaughterhouse.The principle involved is much larger than the case. In essence, the Attorney General is using the Minister of Finance to put the Judiciary itself upon trial. They say, “Fools usually rush in, where wise men dare not enter”. Perhaps, we are witnessing the application of this axiom.The jurisprudential nature, purport and rationale of contempt and the Court’s jurisdiction in this regard were eruditely expressed by that legend in legal literature, in the Union of India, VG Ramachandran, in his classic, “Contempt of Court”, (2002) at page 3, where the learned Professor states:“The foundation of the Judiciary is the trust and the confidence of the people in its ability to deliver fearless and impartial justice and as such no action can be permitted which may shake the very foundation itself. The purpose of contempt jurisdiction is to uphold the majesty and dignity of the courts of law. It is an unusual type of jurisdiction combining “the jury, the Judge and the hangman” and it is so because the Court is not adjudicating upon any claim between the litigating parties. This jurisdiction is not exercised to protect the dignity of an individual Judge but to protect the administration of justice from being maligned. Power to punish for contempt is for maintenance of [an] effective legal system.”It should be clear, therefore, that every law-abiding citizen and those who believe in the rule of law must have more than a passing interest in the ongoing legal imbroglio. I certainly do. There is no swifter way of haemorrhaging public confidence from any judicial system than by its incapacity or inability to enforce its own edicts. When this occurs, the courts of law lose both their majesty and dignity and the law is easily made an “ass”.Several of my clients are the victims of the willful neglect by this Minister of Finance to obey Orders of the Court. He does so contumaciously, upon the counsel of the Attorney General, who, so frequently, misconceives his role in the legal process. I have written numerous letters to, attempted to serve multiple Court Orders upon, and had countless conversations with the Minister of Finance on his neglect to obey Orders of Court. At the risk of being audacious, I informed him that in the end, the Attorney General would not accompany him to the gaol.The only reason I did not file proceedings similar to those that are pending, is because the Minister of Finance intentionally eludes personal service of the Court Orders by a Marshal of the High Court, which is a mandatory legal requirement, prior to the launch of such proceedings. I salute my colleague, Timothy Jonas, for his sheer tenacity. In consequence, several of my clients are, perversely, denied the fruits of their judgement, while powerful political officer holders flex their egotistical muscles. In the meanwhile, interests continue to accumulate upon these judgements at taxpayers’ expenses. My grandmother used to say, “Moon a run till day ketch am”.Against such reality, it is difficult to empathise with the Minister of Finance or the Attorney General. Readers will recall that the legal proceedings, which eventually led to the judgement against the State obtained by Dipcon Engineering Limited, is a sordid narrative of the incompetence of the Attorney General. He failed to appeal the High Court judgement within the prescribed time, and then filed an application, several months late, for an extension of time, to file an appeal out of time. The Guyana Court of Appeal roundly rejected the reasons which he proffered for his tardiness. He sought to blame yours truly and the staff at the Ministry.The Court simply refused to believe such manifest falsehoods. In his attempt to appeal the Court of Appeal’s decision to the Caribbean Court of Justice (CCJ), he committed the elementary error of filing the wrong process. Notwithstanding, the CCJ examined the reasons advanced for his tardiness. In dismissing the appeal, the Court expressed the following caustic remarks:“In her oral submissions, counsel for the State laboured the point that a lot of money was at stake and the case was of great public importance. These very factors highlight how unacceptable are the reasons for the State’s failure to be aware of this pending litigation and the award of judgment, and its failure to apply urgently for an extension of time within which to appeal. To say, regardless of who was in Government, that the State failed to satisfy the most basic standard of care is an understatement.”It is because of this history that I verily believe that the State’s refusal to satisfy the judgement is devoid of bona fides and is inspired by spite, ego and vendetta. The public is aware of the State’s scandalous payments of millions of dollars in settlements, both in litigation and without litigation, in various instances. One readily recalls the US$6.5 million, paid to BK International Inc on a mere pre-action letter, in relation to Haags Bosch dumpsite, whereas in fact, the State should have sued that company for breach of its obligations under the contract.The judgements I have obtained against the State, which are intentionally being ignored, include millions of dollars in compensation and costs, awarded to the poor rice farmers of West Coast Berbice and several public servants, who were wrongfully dismissed by the Government since 2015. These poor and ordinary Guyanese journey to my office, weekly, enquiring about payments on their judgements. I am forced to disappoint them on each occasion.Additionally, I have sued Dipcon Engineering Limited and obtained judgements against them for and on behalf of twenty ex-employees, who are owed severance pay remuneration under the Termination of Employment and Severance Pay Act. I have already obtained requisite Orders of Court directing Dipcon to satisfy these twenty judgements when the State honours its judgement. So, twenty poor Guyanese families are being denied millions of dollars owed to them because of the Minister of Finance’s refusal to obey the judgement obtained by Dipcon.Sincerely,Mohabir Anil Nandlall,MPAttorney-at-Law
Madam Ellen Johnson Sirleaf and other eminent African women at the AWLN conference in LiberiaBy Gloria T. TambaThe Ministry of Gender Children and Social Protection (MoGCSP), in collaboration with African Union (AU) Liaison office and the UN Women office in Liberia, are working out modalities for the establishment of a local chapter of the African Women Leaders Network (AWLN) in the country.This initiative is in consonance with AWLN Secretariat and the establishment of the Liberia chapter will bring to fruition the ongoing efforts to implement the objectives and goals of the network, which aim to positively impact the lives of ordinary women and girls in the country.At the end of the two-day AWLN third meeting of the steering committee in Monrovia this week, under the leadership of former President of Liberia, Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, who is the patron, a communique was signed with key focus on increasing women’s participation in governance, peace and security, empowering women in agriculture, social mobilization, youth and finances.Madam Sirleaf, in her statement at that event, cautioned members of AWLN to continue identifying the needs, supports, finances and ways in which they can continue working in the interest of the women and youth of the African continent.She disclosed that the establishment of the AWLN local chapter in Liberia will contribute immensely to the growth of the network because “Liberia’s chapter will serve as a driving force to the implementation of the aims and objectives of the network, especially with the common goals that will be identified.”She continued: “Liberia’s chapter is particularly challenged because you have to move beyond the fear and see how you can put all the women together, especially looking at the difficulties our women face. Like the trade; we have to look at the continental free trade areas and principles on trade and make some investment because our women suffer because we don’t have the information, regulations, import permit declarations, etc.”Discussing women’s participation in politics, she said, “unless we have leadership at all levels and include the young people who can make a difference, we will not have more women because its more than political elections. It’s about moving the political institutions forward and let’s identify trainings and empowerment at all community levels.”She urged the steering committee to work tirelessly by ensuring that the AWLN national chapters are open in all of the African continent so as to have women playing greater roles in the society.UN Women Country Representative, Ms. Marie Goreth Nizigama, expressed her organization’s commitment and willingness to open the AWLN Liberia chapter.“We are really prepared and ready to launch our local chapter in Liberia because there is a need for call to action because the women really need our support, of which we must all all work together to empower them,” she said.Madame Bineta Diop, the African Union (AU) Special Envoy on women, peace and security, lauded Madam Sirleaf for her endless support in guiding women on the right track and serving as the motivation to the women of Africa.“We are going to work by ensuring that there is increased participation of women in governance, 50-50 No Women No Vote, support of women candidates in political elections, peace and security with focus on the implementation of UN Security council 1325, capacity building for young women, empowering women in agriculture and social mobilization, will include new technologies, media engagement and educational tools,” she explained.Share this:Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window)Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)

To encourage more drilling in the area, prices would have to rise significantly, which hasn’t happened since around January of last year.Flaherty says prices should start increasing as the economies of other countries begin to grow. He says the economy’s of emerging countries like China, Brazil, Russia and India are doing just that.[asset|aid=1806|format=mp3player|formatter=asset_bonus|title=441e26a0f990e8236031f29292e8bf55-Flaherty 2_1_Pub.mp3]Advertisement Flaherty says on Friday he’s off to tour the Peace Region, with a pit stop for a round of golf.

The circumstances of the shooting were hazy Sunday and it wasn’t immediately clear what the gunman’s motive was, but the mother of a 14-year-old victim said the suspect may have been a jealous boyfriend. The shooting occurred in a white, two-story duplex about a block from downtown Crandon. “It was a pizza and movie party,” Dennee said. Three of the victims were Crandon High School students, said schools Superintendent Richard Peters, and the other three had graduated within the past three years. “There is probably nobody in Crandon who is not affected by this,” Peters said, adding that students would be especially affected. “They are going to wake up in shock and disbelief and a lot of pain.” Peters did not know whether Peterson had also graduated from the 300-student high school. But Crandon resident Karly Johnson, 16, said that she knew the gunman and that he had helped her in a tech education class. “He graduated with my brother,” she said. “He was nice. He was an average guy. Normal. You wouldn’t think he could do that.” Dennee declined to comment on whether Peterson had a romantic relationship with any of the victims. “We are a strong community. We always have been,” Bradley said. “This is agonizing, but we will prevail.”160Want local news?Sign up for the Localist and stay informed Something went wrong.

The gunman may have graduated from the same high school. Peterson was not working at the time of the shooting, Sheriff Keith Van Cleve said. The survivor was in critical condition Sunday night at a hospital in nearby Marshfield, according to a nursing supervisor. A Crandon police officer who fired back was treated for minor injuries and released. Gary Bradley, mayor of the city of about 2,000, said earlier Sunday that a sniper killed the suspect, but Van Cleve would not confirm that officers shot the suspect. Peterson was killed Sunday afternoon eight miles north of Crandon in the rural town of Argonne, Dennee said. By Robert Imrie THE ASSOCIATED PRESS CRANDON, Wis. – An off-duty sheriff’s deputy went on a shooting rampage early Sunday at a home where seven young people had gathered for pizza and movies, killing six and critically injuring the other before authorities fatally shot him, officials said. The gunman, Tyler Peterson, was 20 years old and worked full-time as a Forest County deputy sheriff and part-time as a Crandon police officer, said Police Chief John Dennee. 
Daniel checks out of StrictlyDANIEL O’DONNELL says he has no regrets about taking part in this year’s Strictly Come Dancing after being the third celebrity to waltz off the show.The proud Donegal man says it was time for him to go – but will miss learning new dance moves.He and Kristina Rihanoff performed the American Smooth to Frank Sinatra’s Fly Me To The Moon and the star admitted: “I forgot everything in the dance-off, my feel stuck to the floor. “I’ve had a great time, I have enjoyed the show, to have been asked to go on it was amazing,” he said.“And to just have taken part, it’s going to be lovely to look back and say ‘I was on that show.”’He said his nerves got to him again – and was shocked at how nervous he got each week.“I’ve done shows for so many years and have been on stage – it kind of took me by surprise, but I suppose I was out of my comfort zone and that’s why I felt so nervous,” said the Donegal singer. Fans in the Republic couldn’t vote for him but Daniel said that wasn’t an issue.“I don’t think there’s any issue there at all, the show is based in the UK, you know it’s based here in the UK and it’s a UK show,” he said.“If anything I suppose it would be unfair if one person from Ireland was in a show and everybody else was from the UK and all of the votes, or most of the votes [from Ireland] were going for me,” he said.Earlier in the week, Rihanoff blasted a report that claimed she’d branded O’Donnell “an old man” and said he was unlikely to win.She wrote on Twitter: “Everyone knows how much we enjoy working together! Rude journalism.” Talking about the incident, O’Donnell said: “What can you do, things are going to be written – it certainly didn’t affect Kristina and myself at all, we just enjoyed learning the dance, doing the dances, and I suppose I would have loved to be able to do better. Somebody has to go every week and this week it was my turn.”He joked: “I don’t think I’m old”In Saturday night’s show, professional dancer Gleb Savchenko whipped his top off, but O’Donnell joked he was “delighted” he’d not be getting his off soon.“I think I’m doing the world a favour, or maybe the lack of votes is doing the world a favour,” he said.

Mine’s a double! Paddy HanniganDonegal’s hurlers have taken a massive step up – and forward – after winning promotion to Division 2B today.They beat Fingal 2-16 to 0-08 in the Division 2B/3A relegation/promotion final despite playing the entire second half with 14 men at Breffni Park.Paddy Hannigan struck two glory goals, one in either half, to help Donegal to a convincing victory which none of the pundits predicted. Jamesie Donnelly was given a straight red card following an incident with Ross McGarry as the teams went in at half-time.Donegal fans reacted with anger to the referee’s decision which seemed harsh – with no action taken against the Dubliner.But Hannigan’s goals – and nine points from Kevin Campbell – put the Donegal men out of sight of Fingal who couldn’t make the extra man count against a side destined for victory with superb performance all over the park particularly from Danny Cullen, Joe Boyle, Lee Henderson and Ciaran Matthewson.Ray Durack and his team deserve huge credit for taking Donegal hurling – played in this county for centuries – another step up the national ladder. The Ulster Championship is next, and another go at the Nicky Rackard Cup.
