The steady appearance of President David Granger within the Chambers of Parliament is not only historic but a sure sign of respect for the home of democracy.Prime Minister, Moses NagamootooThis statement was made by Prime Minister, Moses Nagamootoo, as he moved a motion in the National Assembly yesterday for Granger’s most recent speech to be debated. He also called, in his motion, for Members of Parliament to show appreciation for the remarks delivered by the Head of State.Nagamootoo said that the President in his address on October 13, last, spoke to the challenges facing the government and the plans going forward.But before delving into some aspects of the President’s address, the First Vice President sought to respond to those critics who have been questioning the President’s regular visits to the House.Nagamootoo in defence of the Head of State reminded that under the Constitution, the President comprises the parliament of Guyana, hence his appearance.The Prime Minister recalled that Granger appeared before the House three times in 2015 and then in January,Andrew Franks Dolphins Jersey, May, and October of this year.“It must be historic for Guyana to have recorded in the annals of parliamentary proceedings that a sitting President would address Parliament on six different occasions within a period of 17 months,Arian Foster Dolphins Jersey,” Nagamootoo expressed.This statement earned him cheers and applause from his colleagues.Turning his attention to the content of the President’s remarks, the Prime Minister noted that Granger would periodically bring to the house, updates on the Government’s policies along with his thoughts on issues of national importance. He said that in Granger’s last six speeches, he spoke extensively on issues of national development,Wholesale China Jerseys, unity and sovereignty.PUBLIC TRUSTNagamootoo reminded that on the issue of public trust, Granger had said, “The dreams of a ‘good life’ turned into a horrible nightmare at the dawn of the new millennium. The most unforgettable experiences and most frightening evidence of our descent into chaos were the bloody, drug-driven, decade-long ‘Troubles.’ The ‘Troubles’ will be remembered as the darkest hour in our history.”Granger had said that it was a time of the un-investigated assassination of a Minister; of the investigation into the alleged implication of another Minister in the direction of a ‘death squad’; of the alleged implication of yet another Minister in the acquisition of a computer to track the telephone communication and location of adversaries targeted for assassination.The Head of State said that it was a time of arbitrary arrests; of disappearances and of torture of young men; of the surge in armed robberies, narco-trafficking and gun-running.During that first, deadly decade, Granger said that there were 1,317 murders and 7,865 armed robberies.He said, too, that it was a time of deception and the cynical rejection of £4.9 million United Kingdom Security Sector Reform Action Plan for which a memorandum of understanding was signed in August 2007; of the rejection of recommendations of numerous security reform reports and total disregard for the implementation of the National Drug Strategy Master Plan.The President said that the evidence of the impact of the man-made criminal crisis is still visible. He said that the damage is most manifest in the demoralization of the public and security services, the erosion of public trust and the lowering of the ‘quality of life.’The President stated that the grisly security situation was accompanied by a parlous economic situation.He said, “The undermining of public infrastructure by the encouragement of cronyism led to serious, costly, serial scandals as seen in the construction the Kato Secondary School; the Hope Canal bridge; the river-front revetment at Kumaka, Barabina road and Moruca bridge; Supenaam stelling and the still unusable Ministry of Social Protection building in Georgetown.”With the aforementioned in mind,World Baseball Classic Jerseys, Nagamootoo said that these reflections were very significant in the context of speaking to policies for safeguarding Guyana’s future.Nagamootoo said that a sitting government should not only be judged by what it promised before getting into office but the condition of life upon the assumption of office.“We can only deliver based on inheritance,” the First Vice President stated.HUGE DEBTOn the topic of the mountain of debt government inherited, Nagamootoo reminded of some of the pertinent points captured on this subject by the President in his last address.The President had said that Government entered a depressing financial landscape in May 2015.
