-Miners will not be granted
a third extension – GGMC Head
Geology and Mines Commission Head (Ag) Ms. Karen Livan
(KN) Yesterday, a group of miners who
have been operating in the OMAI area at a place called Boneyard, protested the
office of the Guyana Geology and Mines Commission (GGMC), calling on the entity
to grant them a fourth extension to mine in the area.mBut the GGMC Head, Ms.
Karen Livan has announced that no extension will be granted for three main
reasons. The reasons being, that the deadline is fast approaching; mining
practices there are contrary to the law and the legitimate title holder of the
site is about to assume occupancy. During their protest action, the miners
claimed that they were not given first preference to buy the claim, which
instead was given to one, Chunilall Baboolall by the Government. The miners
said that they felt cheated.

Robert Corbin has become a liability |

Wednesday, 28 December 2011 |
|
By Freddie Kissoon  The CARICOM islands have parliamentary elections every four years (like in the US). After two years in power, the Prime Minister of Trinidad and Tobago decided he would call a national poll two years before it was due. Nothing exigent was facing Manning; nothing shocking was occurring at the time in Trinidad. A few experts explained that Manning was experiencing a psychic transformation in which strange religious windmills were tilting in his mind (we all have windmills in our mind but not the type that Manning had). Others said that some mystical priest had taken over the consciousness of the then PM of Trinidad and Tobago and he had submitted himself to that personality.

Five-year-old rape victim in need of blood |
|
Wednesday, 28 December 2011 |
The five-year-old girl who was abducted from her Betsy Ground home last Friday and brutally raped, is presently receiving blood as she remains in a critical condition in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of the New Amsterdam Hospital. The child had lost a lot of blood and requires about three pints. Although she is conscious, she is not allowed visitors and only close relatives are allowed to see her. In the meantime, two persons including a prime suspect remain in custody as police continue their investigation. The young victim who is the second of three children lives with her mother, next door to her grandmother, in proximity to the river dam. She was left sleeping at home with her two year old brother while her mother had ventured next door to her mother-in-law’s premises in anticipation of a phone call from the child’s father.

Freddie Kissoon replies to GECOM |
|
Wednesday, 28 December 2011 |
|
 Dear Editor, I refer to a letter by GECOM in KN ((Dec 23), captioned, “GECOM seeks to educate Freddie Kissoon.” A careful reading of that correspondence would reveal the troubled nature of GECOM and for that reason GECOM as it now stands, should be completely and fundamentally overhauled. That letter is riddled with barefaced denials and deliberate attempts to mislead It is in the interest of the opposition, particularly the AFC, to respond to the blatant deceptions in GECOM’s attempt to educate me. David Patterson, former Parliamentarian for the AFC has indicated to me that his reply is on its way and in his comment he will accuse GECOM of not telling the truth. Let’s look at the most egregious piece of deceit in that missive. Based on this I am calling on APNU and AFC to demand that Surujbally and Gocool Boodhoo resign immediately.
