By Leonard GildarieIt is road safety month and again I am reminded how little value we seem to place on our lives.It is November 8th today and so far we have lost at least six persons for the month to the roads.In the game of tennis,Cheap Wholesale Shoes Online, there is what is known as unforced errors…when you make a mistake in playing a shot and you lose the point.There should not be any unforced errors in life. Some people will argue that your time has come or accidents will happen.I love doing things that some people would consider a little risky.But a big no-no for me is driving drunk. In the US, if the cops catch you driving under the influence of alcohol, it is tantamount to murder. You plead guilty and there are fines and lawyer fees and counseling that can add up to thousands of dollars.I have seen real fear in the eyes of my friends when I visit New York and we head out for a few beers. There is a designated,Steelers Jersey Cheap, sober driver. Cops are all over the place there.The cops here in Guyana stand in little side streets and run out behind trucks to catch you speeding. Yet for all this,Brandon Ingram Jersey, I wait impatiently to hear of a campaign when the police would stake out a bar and wait for the boys to jump into their cars or SUVs.Think about how much the courts will collect, or more importantly how many lives could be saved.I cannot emphasize how expensive and gut-wrenching it is to fix properties. A Canter truck rolled back into my car recently. It flaked off the paint…no big damage. But the vehicle had to be in the workshop for a day and I am sure cost the truck owner at least $20,Wholesale Authentic Jerseys,000 to fix.That is the least of problems. The loss of a loved one is devastating to families. We see many of the drivers and passengers are young persons who have not even started to live as yet. Others are breadwinners for the family. One single carefree moment will forever change the lives of a few. Why are we on a runaway train? What is the big hurry? There is an urgent need to take stock.It is going on to six months since the new administration took office.We have been talking for a long time about the role of civil society and social cohesion and how citizens can play a role in the development of this country.We are the ones employing the Government. As employers, we should demand speedier decisions. We have the authority to judge them and fire them when they don’t perform.If we see someone throwing garbage through the car windows,Air Max 97 Cheap Online, we should speak.A Guyanese who now lives in Jamaica this week expressed surprise how clean the place is. She was pleased. I am proud. There are some positive stuff happening.But there seems to be sloth in moving this country to a place I would like to see it.Our political landscape over the last 50 years remains virtually unchanged.The elections have been determined by the ethnic groups.The last two elections have changed because of two main reasons…the large number of young voters who wanted a different message and a better educated and connected group of people who are starting to consider issues rather than who mommy and daddy voted for.The political pundits would differ from my arguments but the figures would tell you different.There is no way this country will move forward unless we start collaborating.And collaboration will have to mean talking to each other. Not taking control.Not lining boards and state entities with persons affiliated with the administration.The last administration did it and we are seeing a trend again. And it is a fact that young faces and women are absent.President Granger and the Opposition Leader should take note of the bitter lessons that can be learnt from the last two general elections. The people are no longer tolerating leaders who refuse to be accountable or who fail to deliver.I am a relatively young Guyanese who in no way would compare to the political analysts who can pronounce on our political climate.But as a citizen, I consider myself an expert in knowing what I want. And there is nothing wrong in you as a citizen demanding that your Government delivers.I do believe that the time is now for us to decide that the winner-takes-all politics that we have practiced for the last 50 years- cannot continue.We need to bite the bullet and tell our party supporters that the nice,Nfl Jerseys Online Cheap, comfy job with nice perks as a consultant might not be there because the greater good of the country comes first.Across the political divide, I am sure that capable, qualified persons can be found. The administration needs to reach out if it wants to prove it is serious about bridging the gap.I see political candidates for the now PPP opposition still maintaining their jobs in executive positions.It is a good start.We can talk about social cohesion now to eternity,Fjallraven Kanken Italia, but in vain as half of the voting population has decided that they wanted the PPP Opposition in power.Let us begin there. Let us start showing evidence that our intentions to make Guyana a better place is sincere.Again, it is not because partisan politics was practiced before that we are bound to continue the same path.A classical example of what partisan politics does could be found in the current quarrel between the Hindu organisations when Diwali will be celebrated. This week we have two days.So yeah, we can talk about all the good things we are doing but it will all be in vain unless we reach across the table.作者: randolph9531 時間: 2024-3-27 04:37
