PNC/R questions “has Guyana moved forward after 45 years as an independent country in nation building “

Georgetown : The People’s National Congress Reform says Guyana’s 45 independence observances should be the occasion for soul searching as to where the country is today and what must be done if it is to survive as a cohesive unified and prosperous country.

The party’s message reads “as a people we must ask ourselves whether after forty five (45) years of political independence we have been successful in ‘Nation Building and whether the economic plans and programmes over the past years, have helped to spread prosperity equitably throughout our land and resolve our deep-seated ethnic and social problems.

Let us take note of the fact, as we observed this particular milestone, that our country is definitely showing signs of regression and all Guyanese, who love their country, must pause and ponder what must be done, as a matter of urgency, to ensure that the path to racial harmony, economic development and social progress which were evident in the early years after independence is resumed in this our dear land.”

On this 45th Anniversary of Independence, the PNCR pledges to work with all responsible and reliable forces whose aim is to forge a ‘National Consensus’, which can facilitate the resolution of the many known problems which have bedeviled our country and stymied our development.”
