Under the theme “Proud of our performance,Wholesale NHL Jerseys, modernising to improve service to members,” the Guyana Public Service Union yesterday observed its 85th anniversary with a call from its president, Patrick Yarde, for members to learn from past experiences.In a message marking the occasion,Cheap NFL Jerseys China, Yarde reminisced that the Guyana Public Service Union (GPSU), which was founded as the British Guiana Civil Service Association,China Jerseys, was established with the primary objective of having a cooperative relationship with the existing Government on the premise of safeguarding the interest of the civil servant, advancing their welfare, and promoting the public interest.“Looking back, we are immensely thankful to our forefathers for their insight and vision, for the need is even greater now to protect our members, especially public servants, from injustice.”Yarde opined that, despite many encouraging signs during the earlier years, since independence there has been a notable turnaround. ”Looking at our rich history, our achievements and the great strides we made, no one could have imagined how conditions would have digressed, now forty-two (42) years after independence,Jerseys Wholesale, from the levels once attained.“At the commencement of our existence as the British Guiana Civil Service Association, there was the recognition of a relationship of mutual respect between the employer and employee representatives. It was arranged that the representatives would always be given access to the employer should the need arise,Wholesale Stitched Jerseys, with the view of discussing and resolving differences that may have arisen between conflicting parties.I am deeply saddened that, within the last decade or so, that relationship has deteriorated often to an extent that the employer, the Government of Guyana, lacks sensitivity to justice and fair treatment, can be openly hostile,holesale NFL Jerseys, even displaying unwillingness to be civil.”Yarde pointed out that, “The relationship is confrontational by the employer’s conduct, which has repeatedly arrogantly and autocratically disregarded international fundamental principles and standards for workers’ rights that were ratified by the Parliament of Guyana without dissent, and which are intended to regulate the relationship between the two parties”.He added that there is often an arbitrary abuse of authority in imposing conditions of service which are to be negotiated based on existing legally binding agreements between the Government and the union.“We are deeply concerned about the future of both our members and the public service, because of the tendency of the employer, the Government’s apparent determination to politicize the public service and to ignore the requirement that, while a public servant should faithfully discharge ( legitimately) policies of the Government, they must be professional and impartial in the performance of their duties, particularly in dealing with the public, regardless of party in office.”Yarde went on to note that notwithstanding what he described as “our man-made difficulties created by those who have benefited and elevated to the offices they now occupy”, the union’s membership had not limited its focus to traditional industrial relations issues and had given serious attention to crime, corruption, health care, national stability, poverty, and more recently torture.“Our intentions have been good, honourable, and in the national interest. We would continue to do so, and be vigilant in pursuit of good governance, regardless of any threat of political discrimination.”The GPSU president concluded by stressing that members must re-organise, re-energise and be rejuvenated in the quest to modernize the entity as they attempt to build on the sound foundations laid by those before them.

By Abena RockcliffeSentiments expressed by new Director of the Government Information Agency (GINA), Beverley Alert give reason as to why her predecessor, Neaz Subhan refused to let out information relating to the financing of “The Guyanese”.Former Information Liaison to the President, Kwame McCoy.“The Guyanese” was a newspaper produced by GINA, but was printed and circulated in the United States of America.Yesterday, Alert told Kaieteur News that she inherited GINA in serious debt. She pointed to the fact that the entity owes the Guyana Chronicle just about $70M and said that instead of incurring additional expenses, she decided to discontinue publication of the newspaper.Alert said that there was a shortage of adequate checks and balances for the venture which has proved costly. That, she said, was another factor that influenced her decision to shut things down on that end.Alert said that while records show the amount of money paid for the newspaper to be printed, there is no system to verify product for expenditure.“There was nothing in place to show that you were paying X and got Y. As it is, we cannot do that sort of verification.”Alert said that there is record to show that US$3,Wholesale Jerseys,060 (G$612,Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic,000) was wired fortnightly – for a total of 18 editions – to an individual (name given) for the newspaper. The full amount was US$55,080 (G$11,Cheap NFL Jerseys,016,000)That individual is not attached to any entity. The Director explained that there is no GINA representative in New York who was conducting business for the agency. “The money was transferred to an individual, not a company or a consulate.”This Alert found to be “quite strange”. She said that she viewed the procedure for the publication to beFormer GINA Director, Neaz Subhanunofficial in this regard.Alert said that even as the newspaper is cancelled, GINA still sees the need to keep the Diaspora informed, so the agency is looking to build its online presence.The Director said that GINA is looking to build the database of persons subscribing and to expand its mailing list.“We are becoming more aggressive on Facebook. It’s not where I want it to be, but it is a work in progress.”She said that Subhan, in the handing over, gave her a list of the amount published and where it was to be distributed. She asserted,wholesale jerseys, “That was given, but I was dissatisfied with the financial aspect of it, more needs to be proven.Before elections,Stitched Jerseys, questions were raised about the money spent by GINA to produce the newspaper for circulation in New York,Stitched Jerseys, but the state-owned entity remained silent on the cost.Instead, GINA set about to deflect the issue by accusing Kaieteur News of telling lies.Leader of Alliance of Change (AFC), Khemraj Ramjattan, who is now also the Minister of Public Security, had raised questions about the publication of the fortnightly newspaper.Ramjattan had condemned the fact that taxpayers were made to pay for a newspaper that carried nothing but praise for the People’s Progressive Party government.He also raised questions over spending by GINA’s Head, Neaz Subhan, and former government official, Kwame McCoy.Subhan had said that he would not speak to Kaieteur News about “The Guyanese” as it was an internal matter.”
