Thought-provoking newspaper articles 2015-2017.

      Аннотация: The book is a collection of newspapers articles that were written and published in Guyana Times from 2015 to 2017 under the column Lomarsh Luminary. Structurally, the articles are grouped according to politics, crime, corruption and migration. The main focus is on the newly elected APNU/AFC government in Guyana with regard to fulfilling campaign promises and delivering to Guyanese at home and in the Diaspora. The articles were written from a bold and radical perspective, not shy to speak up on issues affecting Guyanese, particularly on those living in the coastal sugar belt. The articles reveal that the policies of the government have parachuted a majority of Guyanese into a high state of anxiety and ambivalence. The predication is that oil finds and revenues will not transform Guyana because of ethnic polarization, divisiveness, corruption as well as an unclear approach on how to manage multi-national oil corporations and on who, what and where will benefit. The outcome of the 2020 general election will certainly determine the future direction of Guyana. Right now, it is not bright since large sections of the country think the election will be rigged by the sitting government.
