Private hit squad founder Shaheed Roger Khan is to be investigated at home for nearly 200 murders he allegedly committed during a five-year killing spree at the height of his operations in Guyana.
We find it interesting that that the online newspaper Caribbean360.com would be carrying a story of a Guyanese named Shaheed Roger Khan, who is reported to have been part of a hit squad contracted by the government of Guyana in 2002. According to the 360 story, the Guyana government became helpless in the face of a series of violent crimes which resulted in 27 law enforcement officers being assassinated over a two year span.
Here is a chilling excerpt from Caribbean360.com:
With police and the military demoralised by the killings and the sheer fearlessness of gang members, even the government had publicly conceded it was at a loss to deal with the situation. In stepped Khan, who jumped bail in the U.S. state of Vermont on felony gun charges, allegedly offering and winning acceptance of his assistance to authorities by forming small groups of ex-police and soldiers in a private death squad. The squad would then hunt down and kill gang members using high-tech mobile telephone tracking devices to triangulate the position of gang members and take them out. Police and the state turned a blind eye.
Read the full article. (our thanks to Adrian H for highlighting the article)
Why have we highlighted this story you are asking? The evidence so far points to complicity between Roger Khan’s gang and high ranking authorities in Guyana. These criminals went on to engage in heinous criminal acts. We will watch to see how this all plays out.

I believe there is a criminal guyana – barbados link right here in Barbados.
Already the USA has accused us last year with aiding human trafficking with people from guyana,and their investigations revealed that senior people in the last BLP administraton were part of the deal.
That is just one of the reason the BLP should not see the corridor of powers for a very long,long time.
Young underage girls especially of indian,amerindian or mixed descent are brought to Barbados from Guyana by their own indo guyanese countrymen – they are promised jobs – but instead are pushed into protistution.
They have also been bringing drugs in large amounts into Barbados.
The biggest drug haul (street value) was cocaine brought in by 6 indian guyanese who of course used 2 low life black bajans and joined up with them to spread this poision throughout our society.
That’s your and my sons and daughters they intended to lure into the cocaine habit.
The ex soldier guy currently allegedly tormenting guyana – said some time back when his girlfriend was kidnapped in Guyana – he had connections and people in Barbados.
We should also remember the black radio talk show host Waddell who was allegedly killed at the instructions of President Jagdeo because he was very strong and public in his criticism of how Jagdeo was favouring the indians in the distribution of wealth in Guyana.
The shit will soon hit the DLP fan – once they continue to doodle while Rome burns.

We are walking with our eyes wide open into a pit of iniquity. There will eventually be a lot of tears, and a beating of breast…but it will be too late.
That we could so easily surrender a “relative” oasis of calm, and foolishly bring aboard a calamity, is madness beyond belief.
One small island, which has withstood many ravages in its time, now willing to surrender all in a decade.
Is it too late; will the grim reaper have to be within the yard before we take action?
“All” nations take pride in protecting what they have. Are we so blind as to not see what is happening around the world. In God’s name see sense.
Do not discriminate against anyone, be fair and honest, but that does not mean giving leave of “common sense.”

What is scary is the fact that the US authorities from the report don’t have any confidence in the government or Police force. This is something which we must monitor when we view it in the context of our open door immigration policy.
Carson C. Cadogan // May 29, 2008 at 7:44 AM
All of this information was made available to the Guyana Govt. and Police force a long time ago and nothing was done about it.
In order to get action against some of these criminals citizens had to work with the US Embassy in Guyana.
Guyana is fast becoming a Paradise for criminals at all levels. The number of murders so far for the year is chilling and the sad thing about it few of theses murders are solved.
JC // May 29, 2008 at 9:05 AM
Here we go again. When will people see what is happening. Do we think that this situation in Guyana will not affect us?
We as a nation need to come together and ask for stronger immigration policies, not just for Guyanese alone; but for those persons who think that since they went to google and typed up “Most Gullible Country” and Barbados came up that all of us on the Island are a pack of asses.
Well hello
WE BLASTED WELL ARE NOT ASSES.
We are people who have humane hearts, and are now waking up and realising that these people are something else.

I am told, that behind every dark cloud there is a silver lining, and this believe is what drives my continual examination of things Guyana. The more i search and investigate the more i am compel by the truth of my findings to say with growing conviction that “Guyana is a fail state” . So Carson i am going to partially agree with you that it is a paradise awash in criminals at all levels, and i will add, cross all ethnicity’s. I will however disagree that it is “fast becoming” such. That race is finish, and the results is there for all to see.

Just for the record the president of Guyana recently said that his Government ‘took care’ of the prison escapees. Exactly what does he mean bt took care? well all of them were shot and never saw the inside of a court room. A Government that at minimum supports extra judicial killings…this makes all the other rumours about their involvement with Roger Khan seem more than plausible.

Is’nt time that we bajans ask for a definitive position from the DLP on the guyana situation?
I’m glad that what i’ve been saying is being brought to light. It is said if you put a frog in cold water it would settle in, then heat that water gradually until it gets very hot, that frog would stay there and be cooked. The same thing happening to us. The screws are gradually being tightened and we’re taking it, one day the screw would be so tight that the head would break off and we would have to remain in that position forever.

David why the brassbowl Chris Sinckler as minister of foreign affairs or Kelli as Caricom Ambassador don’t get a caricom delegation to investigate that.
As a matter of fact the caricom secratariat is headquartered in Guyana.You mean they can’t see what is going on.
If this was happening to indians in any country – indians all over would rise up as one.
This DLP government doing bare sh**te with this guyanese issue.

Carlos // May 29, 2008 at 9:02 PM
Gentlemen, Guyana’s real problems started a long time ago, unfortunately, but true, when ever and where ever you find an admixture of Islamic and Hindu religions as is the historic case with Guyana, curses come down on the land, crops, cattle and people. As if this wasn’t bad enough, the late Forbes Burnum, I think, officially recognized ‘Obeah’ witchcraft, and sanctioned it. What am I getting at? Well, whenever a country exposes itself to these ‘evil’ forces of religion, especially when the Prime Minister gives official sanction to its practice, look out, diabolical demonic entities take control of many aspects of its societal affairs.
If you doubt this, check out the South American countries, India and Pakistan, the Middle East, etc, etc., and see their form of governments, the social and civil unrest that is the ‘norm’ nothing is peaceful in these countries. All of this is confirmed right from within God’s Word, the Bible, every time His chosen people, the Jews, turned their backs on the ‘One’ true and living God, and embraced ‘Idolatry’ false gods, they suffered terribly.
Historically, it cannot be denied, that Barbados, was, and still is, the most stable, in every sense of the word, of all the Caribbean Island states, WHY? Because, we as a people were the most ‘Christian’ Island of all, BUT, this is rapidly changing as well, our gods are now secular materialism, humanism, cultural relativism, and many other false gods. Beware, BARBADOS, our turn is around the corner!
The only true ‘foundation’ for any one to build upon, is JESUS CHRIST; be it a ‘man’ his household, a parish, or a ‘Nation.’ The foundation upon which B’dos was built is cracking, why? Because, “Righteousness, exalts a NATION; But SIN is a reproach to any people.”
(Proverbs 14:34).

How do you do what you are suggesting – that is – agitate and demonstrate.
Perhaps others could give some ideas too.
I believe if every day people bombard the call in programmes with calls on their concern about the DLP lack of action on these high number of guyanese and others in this country.
If they ask you where are the official numbers,you let them know you don’t need official numbers your eyes don’t deceive you.
Remember a lot of these people are illegal – so there is no official figure on them.
If every day 10 persons call and ask what the DLP is doing about the situation – and keep persisting even though Mike Browne the producer at VOB might try to shut you up.
Call on one topic and then quickly move to the guyanese issue – until they get the idea – that we the people are not having our country turn into a guyana or trinidad with their problems between indians and africans.
At least you will know the whole of Barbados and the dlp will be hearing and hopefully the DLP will be shamed into doing something fast – and I don’t mean a couple people being sent back.
The internet is too limiting for this serious matter.
I am talking about a policy of no admittance by their children to our educational places,no free health care,NO CITIZENSHIP OR PERMANENT RESIDENCES for the Next 5 Years until this mess is sorted out – whether – they marry a bajan or not.
Finally a review of citizenship an permanent residences granted over the last 5 – 7 years.
A review of the ID Cards given over the last 10 years – that is who they were given to and was the correct procedure followed.
Tell us if that immigration stamp has been recovered.
Respond to cynthis forde’s point about 2 months ago – that these persons coming in here are in some cases carriers of the HIV virus and are infecting bajans.
Look this thing real serious.
Mr David Thompson,Miss Maxine Mcclean – we need drastic serious action now.

So are you telling me that your Euroepean Christian religion is the saviour for awe Guyana. Just look at Northern Ireland, dem is Catholic and Anglican and fight up and kill upp. Look if you you don’t know anything about Obeah or Burnham. So stop right there.

Miss Anonymous, how dear you challenge us on our proof.
Our proof is the unrest that we are reading about with our own eyes (in your newspapers).
This is ridiculous how can you defend a government who has compassion only to indo guyanese. You think we bajan people foolish?
You think that we dont know that a plane ride will not wipe out the hatred you all feel towards balck people.
I am getting sick of david ellis and peter wickham and the likes of them. I believe that we should have stronger immigration policies. If Guyana has so much land and is so much better than Barbados, then tell your fellowmen to come back home.
I go to UWI and I know for a fact that Ms. Gibson is an intelligent woman and when she calls a jack a jack it is a blasted jack.
She is frank and very knowledgeable. Even if you dont like her teaching ethics you have to respect her, since when she gives advice, one should adhere.
Additionally, dont lets use religion here to complicate the issue. The issue is that the Government in Guyana is being run by a pack of hooligans, who have no respect for their fellow man. And even boast about their inhumane conduct.
So Ms. Anon shut to hell up. There is just to much evidence against your countrymen for us not to see the truth.
Undertaker // May 30, 2008 at 12:29 AM
A few point why barbados will not get any better, at least not until it hits the bottom:
1. A guyanese friend of mine told me last we that a person offered to get him a work permit extension from immigration for $5,ooo.oo he turned it down said he only had to wait another year (which would be 5) and they he could send in his papers to stay. OH the person who offered to get it for him was a POLICEMAN!
2. Ask which politian has seven guyanese working for them (no bajans at the house) clue; their spouse is not bajan either.
3. A medical friend told me that alot of them are HIV positive, but they take their medicine better than the bajans so they look healthy longer. Our men and women sleep with people without knowing their background and don’t even use protection in a lot of cases.
4. An illegal citizen only has to hide for 5 years, and then they can apply to immigration status, get a lawyer pay the back payments on the extensions and the process begins from there. Unless they commit a crime, they are free to go and come as they please.
5. OUR IMMIGRATION LAWS ARE TOO SLACK. Unless we make decisions that benefit bajans first, they we will be in hot water (or more) very soon. Why does barbados have to sign every document and the others don’t? Are we so lacking in self esteem that we want a good name from all our “brothers and sisters”? Don’t we see that the countries that we use to look down on are slowing and quietly rising above us? In a few years we will be fill with more violence, drugs, corruption, and prostitution than guyana, trinidad, jamaica and st. vincent combined if we bajans don’t demand seriousness from our politicians.
6. “Most Gullible Country” – We seem to really be, we can’t even catch the 10 or so africans that are roaming here, seems that the outsiders come and learn the country really well. (or they are making AFRICAN MOVIES with our woman folk.

I am truly surprised that the Caribbean-360 has made so many people here aware about what has been going on in Guyana. I really thought that this stuff was common knowledge.
I have been reading the Guyana newspapers online for about ten years and I have also visited the country and got “on the ground info” that will not be published by the newspapers – too explosive! They need a good blog like BU to give the real stories of what is going on.
The article on Caribbean360 is basically a copy of articles in the Guyana Kaieteur News and Stabroek News this week . The information has long been public knowledge in Guyana and is basically factual but not complete as there is even more to this that will eventually come out in the Roger Khan case.
The 2003-2005 period in Guyana was brutal. Daily executions, robberies attacks and counter attacks. It was difficult to know who was doing what and who was behind the “phantom squads”. There were other operatives who seems to be lying low now…. so Roger Khan was not the only person running these private armies… with the full support of the Government and the Police.
The Government operatives was and is still deep in the business of protecting and benefiting from the drugtrans shipment business. Corruption is widespread everywhere and basically one racial group is bemifitting from these activities. For instance the Customs is completely corrupt as well as the Police. The forestry and gold/diamond mining hardly pays its true share of taxes as the country is being systematically raped and the profits go to Queens, New York a and Miami. Guyana is now the private property of the Indians even though they are only about half the population.
Afro Guyanese have no voice and no leadership. they seem to be a lost people… the blood sweat and tears of their slave ancestors now mean little.. they work for the Indian man killing and keeping the Afro man in his place. Who do you think made up the “phantom squads”? Now Corbin and the PNC is marching against the high cost of food and the poor governance… but the Burnham PNC were the creators of the 1980 constitution which is now being used to sujugate them. A pitiful situation for Afro-Guyanese!
Added to this the Govt exports its problems overseas by encouraging emigration and thus remittances back home to alleviate the economic situation. Remittances last year were some US460M up from US 280M the previous . This 480 million is about half of the national budget so without it Guyana will sink even more. This Roger Khan case and the criminal acts of the Lusignan and Bartica massacres also are a cause for alarm added to the downturn in the US and world economies. This will mean less remittances and rising immigration issues like the one this week in Trinidad.
Barbados immigration issues are another matter. I am still trying to figure out the real policies of this new government rather than the platitudes of minister Sinkler in a recent speech. I beleive that they are studying “Managed Migration” as a policy… whatever that means.
Guyanese are in a quandary. Many want to go back home to live but they do not see long term stability and safety there. In any case no one will think of emigrating theret unless the major parties (and races), come to realize that neither of them can run Guyana alone. Either they share Guyana wealth or the country will be unlivable. The policies of Pres. Jagdeo are ensuring that the healing process will not happen. He leaves – by constitution after two terms – in 2011. No one knows what will happen then.
The tragedy of Guyana continues………

another tactic of the Guyana govt is to call everyone liars and start bombarding websites with their hogwash…most of our writers are in Guyana so if you want to know what’s going on in Guyana stay tuned to http://www.propagandapress.org cause the newspapers cannot carry certain information…like the helicopters the govt just bought was done through a Guyanese pilot in florida who is a known drug smuggler for the CIA and the mob…don’t take our word for it…google michael francis brassington
they send their people out posing under annonymous or fake names to attack sites all the time with childish nonsense
ask them why Guyana is one of the few countries with a falling population, or why there’s a line at the passport offfice from 4am til 8pm daily, or why the biggest defenders of the guyana govt dont live in Guyana [norm faria and rickey singh are two of the biggest ones] .

for those who don’t know about Guyana…we have 3 papers: Guyana Chronicle [govt owned], stabroek news [private but rely on govt ads to stay afloat which was cut off for 18 months...they criticise a lot, but they have to lay off certain things - $100/$200US will get you killed in Guyana]
then there is kaieteur news [they masquerade as independent and have one of the biggest critics of the govt as a daily colomnist - freddie kissoon - but they have two daily columns by no name writers who support the govt...one is called 'blame the govt' which mocks any criticism ... additionally they have page one comment and their editorials all support the govt...they've been attacked and 5 staff killed a while back. rumours the owner glen lall also in cocaine
cocaine dealers in guyana are 'businessmen' no drug lord. repeat no one has ever been locked up or convicted in Guyana. none
the US does not give any info to Guyana govt or Police on anything [according to them and the US]
barry dataram [freed 3 times by judge who supports PPP ignoring US extradition request. family kidnapped by colombians in Guyana & police get vex after rescuing them] he’s disappeared since
terrence sugrim – freed by same judge. same story. us extradition warrant
minister of home affairs and guyana police chief US visas have been revoked donkey years ago…as was the former home affairs minister…both US and canada
all help is needed in exposing these criminals in Guyana. WE NEED HELP. CARICOM HAS BEEN BOUGHT AND PAID FOR IN THEIR FANCY HQ.
by the time you go through the 55 layers of security you forget what you went there for.
roger khan lawyer is making a clown of himself. the last time he was in guyana he was protected by the cocaine mafia and former guyana police people. there is no one in Guyana who can touch him. plus he is a white man and american. he just playing games
hope this helps it’s more than a mouthful :D

The people running that site are a whites and half chineese,half syrian and 2 blacks – most of them are livining in La – la land and can’t or wouldn’t underasnd how the indian people in guyana and other places really hate black people and how their behaviour towards black people in guyana will soon spill over to Barbados.

I often wonder why we have elections and put these politicians in power.
When they were in opposition and seeing it hard – as Contone says – ‘hard times hit dem’ – they were all in yuh face telling you how they object to the guyanese situation,and because we were soooooooooo fed up with Owen and still soooooooo fed up with he and Mia – we listened to them.
But if dey think we mekkin’ sport bout here det n for a big surprise.
Tens of thousands of these people especially the nasty indain ones bout here just waiting for a chance or a man to get them a bajan passport,and chris sinckler and kellman talkin bare foolishness about ‘reaching out to the guyanese’.

The problem in Guyana is not the government; it’s the people. The blacks destroyed the country while victimizing the coolies, and now the coolies are returning the favor. If there is any truth to the allegations, it sounds like monsieur Khan did the people of Guyana a favor. Earlier this year you had black paramilitary thugs attacked two coolie villages killing people indiscriminately. That kind of savagery demands a drastic response. You’re not going to deal with these people with bobbies.

Anonymous, Guyanese Obeah Woman, the ‘Proof’ of the utter devastation and havoc that comes upon ‘people’ who practice such abominations as you and others do, CAN’T be denied, Haiti is the most glaring example of what happens to a ‘Nation’ when ‘Voodoo’ just another name for ‘Obeah’ Witchcraft, is widespread, as in Haiti, utter chaos permeates the ‘land.’
Almighty God speaks loud and clear in His denounciation of any kind of spiritistic practice, hear ‘Him.’
“You shall not allow a soceress to live” (Exodus 22:18). “You shall not eat anything with blood nor practice divination or soothsaying” (Lev. 19:26). “Do not turn to meduims or spiritists, do not seek them out to be DEFILED by them, I am your the Lord your God” (Lev. 19:31). “As for the person who turns to mediums and to spiritists, to play the HARLOT after them, I will set My face against that person and will cut him off from among his people” (Lev. 20:6).
These are just a few verses from Almighty God, on the abomination of such practices. Obeah Woman, YOU are dealing with Satan and his Demonic hosts, you are deceived, and will ultimately pay the price for your wicked practice of these ‘Occultic’ arts.
By the way, Roman Catholicism, is NOT a Christian demonination, it is the most wicked, evil, tyrannical, religious/political institution ever to have been granted existence on earth. In Haiti, 99% of the people practice ‘Voodoo’ and then go to the Catholic church to partake in the ‘Mass’ a subtle form of witchcraft, 6 of one, and half dozen of the other.
The plain empirical evidence is all there, for any honest seeker of ‘TRUTH’ and facts to see and know.

14 people were massacred in Lusignan [a predominantly east indian village] 12 in Bartica which is the gateway to the gold bush is not an Indian village. quite the contrary Indians may be the smallest group in Bartica. not that it matters but the perception again is that Black people are killing Indians when Indians control the army, police, coast guard, cocaine gangs, banks, airport etc….a couple ‘businessmen’ were robbed in bartica, police station attacked etc supposedly by black robin hoods but ask them how 35 lbs of gold from bartica ended up in Suriname in the hands of three east indians from guyana? [black robin hoods pulled off the robbery of a big gold man in bartica]

PLM I am a proud bajan and not a proud guyanes you ass. I have a lot to be proud about in Barbados not in Guyana. How dare you doubt my patriotism.
I know for a fact that many of you coolie people come bout here in Barbados and insult us Bajans. If you dont know it is a fact that I was one for the live and let live syndrome. However, I realised that you all dont have any respect for people and their conutry.
I dont care what ya all do in Guyana PLM. I care what you do in Barbados.
Do you know anything about the rich St. George Valley, Do you know about a man called ERrol Walton Barrow. Who gave us free secondary education? (So you all can come with immigration letters and stop people who are bajans from getting into school that my blasted taxes pay for)
Did your grandparents ever tell you about the 1937 rights.
Well I know all those things. I know about when my grandmother was the leader of the gang in the canefield. I heard about all her trials and she made it. Just like everybody bajan great grandmother.

the govt of Guyana and the people moving cocaine and shooting up the place are all the same. they’re all equal. they’re plagues in our society that’s why so many people are running legally and illegally to Barbados, Trinidad, the Orinocco Delta and anywhere else but Guyana. deal with that mister independent sympathiser

You don’t have to worry about slugs like Degap and PLM,they will soon realise if they haven’t realised already that they are on a losing wicket.
Indians all over the world gravitate to countries where there are black populations – you know why?
Because they see african people as easy money – always as consumers – for the junk they sell and the dope they peddle.
Popoganda Press tell me – do these drug lords in Guyana take their drugs and sell it to the indian boys and girls in their comminuties e.g. Berbice and these other places?
I bet you not – but I’m sure they take that poison – cocaine – and go the the african youth to push the drugs and to be drug users.
When,oh when will my people open their eyes and see the destruction that is about to befall them with this race called ‘the indians’.

How will they know the depth of anger that is arising in ordinary bajan citizens?

It is time for Barbadians to rally round the flag. The flag that was raised in the presence of our illustrious son. The Rt Hon Errol Walton Barrow on the 30 November 1966.
We have paid a heavy price for our independence, it did not come cheap.
In the hard baked soil of this beloved island, many have laboured. Through the rain, in the boiling sun, pond grass a’reaping they have laboured. Razor sharp tall canes they felled, backs repeatedly bending, they toiled.
Our fathers, mothers and grand parents have paid their dues. Every rutted cart track; tells its own story. If only the soil could speak.
Must we, now in a whimsical flight of fancy give it all up, for what? nothing.
Will we tell our grand children, we just wanted to be nice.

“Must we, now in a whimsical flight of fancy give it all up, for what? nothing”
is nothing less than alarming! Compounded by statements made Foreign Minister Sinckler makes me wonder if you are now disappointed.

because the cocaine in Guyana is shipped to US and Europe you find that the spillover effects are in Region 4 in terms of usage for the most part [georgetown, east coast, east bank etc] however there are crack heads to be found in rural areas and “Indian” villages across Guyana because the stuff is available [Guyana is a 'big' country but we live in a relatively small part of it] there is no place in Guyana you cant find cocaine for personal use and wholesale purchase except maybe amerindian reservations
you’re not getting rich selling cocaine to crack heads and junkies in Guyana it is mainly for export

I believe without reservation, that the Democratic Labour Party was the right choice for Barbados, at the last election.
I said so before the election – when there was some doubt – and I repeat it now.
It is fair and honest of us, who have Barbados at heart, that we give the DLP an opportunity to govern.
I have not made any hasty “unreasonable demands” of them, and do not intend to do so. To govern a country, is not like organising a Sunday school picnic. Everything cannot be done immediately.
In the world of politics, it is sometimes expedient to express certain views. However, that expression should never give the impression, that you have disregarded the opinions of those who elected you.
I have made it clear before, and so there is no doubt. I say it again. I believe that all those who live in Barbados should be treated fairly. Their rights and privileges should be respected.
The immigration policy…if there is one is not working. Must we wait until there is large scale trouble; before we do something about it. Then it would be too late.
Now is the time to act.
This issue is so important, that it should not be relegated to platitudes.
Barbados is a “small island”, there is no where to run and hide.
We cannot distance ourselves from trouble.
We must be “one people”, despite all our parents have experienced, that is what kept us together.
There is a new dynamic at work, it is invidious in its nature. My reason for such an opinion is that certain groups – are reported to – have decided what VOB (Voice of Barbados) should, or should not broadcast…in their own interest.
That is dangerous, if it is that the majority should suffer in silence, and their voices should not be heard.
Those of us whose foreparents, have trudged the rugged road. Will have a different feeling to those whose foreparents have not, hence “our” passion.
Our foreparents paid dearly, let their legacy be that we – even if we are poor – can live in peace.
Let no one take that away from us…I repeat let no one take that away from us.

All this talk about CSME; all it is doing is disrupting and contaminating our country but where is the benefits for us bajans? A little deal with T&T that we were told by this gov’t that could be settled over a bowl of crab and callalou is now taking a different turn and seem to have no end. Niagara Falls would freeze again before our fishermen can fish off T&T. or maybe by then we would be part of the T&T/Guyana Republic.

Devil // May 31, 2008 at 9:08 AM

thank you for your reply. You have indicated that the immigration policy is either non-existant or not working. Recent statements by senior Government officials and their silence on the issue of the apparent high influx of the Guyanese (along with others) suggest that nothing is likely to be done in this matter.
I fully understand your position that first, the voices of the people must be heard without censorship! But are those in authority likely to listen? It is good that public finances and accounts should be put right, proper systems of administration pursued but should all this corrective work be done so others who either did not contribute nor may share the same objectives be allowed to undermine those efforts?
I fear that the die is cast, we shall become strangers in our own land. It upsets me to know that those fields of cane that my grandfather and uncles cut at Todds are now in the hands of Trinidadians who wait for the moment of approval and opportunity to sell to whoever from far and away while my children must hope for assistance from NHC.
Yes, we put our trust in the DLP but they have played us for fools. The BLP are yesterday’s men, it is the DLP (not VOB) who we charged with the responsibility of governing Barbados, who must act before it is too late! Will an immigration policy be enacted when the foreign born population is 50,000, 100,000 or 200, 000?
What does it profit a man (a nation) to gain the whole world but lose his soul in the process?
Peace to you and all those who labour for the good of Barbados.

2 days ago Trinidad deported 15 guyanese who either had false passports or didnot satisfy immigration requirements.
The trini authorities said they are fed up having to take care of these guyanese.
Like with Barbados a Ms Rodrigues the guyanese foreign minister complained to the trinidad minister in for a meeting in guyana at the time – about his country’s treatment of guyana.
But you think Trinidad care?Just look and see what they did with those africans who went there and overstayed their time – Put them in maximum security prison.
A pattern is clearly emerging where the guyanese President Basdeo Jagdeo has a deliberate policy of exporting the dregs of his society to the islands of the caribbean – although right now Barbados seems to be the country of choice.
These guyanese put tremendous pressure on the countries they are in,committing crimes,prostituting themselves,undercutting the wage rates for the average workers,using any means to get citizenship and to get their children in schools free and get free health care.
Now in steps chris sinckler with his pile of shite – saying that we the bajans must reach out to the guyanese and allow them to get free health care and free education.
I hope the good people of St michael North West kick him out of that damn seat,but before that he should get a good tongue lashing from the bajan people.
His ego seem to be bigger than his head.Who the hell he think he is – David Thompson the Prime minister of Barbados?Ole brassbowl.

Trust me,standing up for your rights and speaking truth to power cannot be racist.
Deporting these guyanese illegals and others make economic sense,political sense ,religous sense and most of all makes sense because it prevents the fracturing of the society along racial lines as seen in Guyana,Trinidad,Fiji,U.K etc.
You see that article by Jean Charles in Caribbean News Net – he is not a bajan and he is telling everyone what the mindset of the indain population for the most part is – and it seems that this government intends to put us back into financial and emotional chains again.
JC ,Yardbroom,scout ,negroman and others I can’t tell you how deeply disappointed I am with with David Thompson and his team on how they have so easily and early in their term gone back on their promise to us that they will bring in sweeping change – especially on the guyanese issue.
David Thompson understood perfectly how bajans felt about this especially when the BLP was in power.
As you pointed out Devil we as children of our foreparents who built this country up to where it is – are now going to be cheated out of our inheritance.
You think white bajans care about this increase in indian and chineese – it will be more non – african persons in the country who they will count as their allies.
That is why I really don’t take the comments of those at BFP very seriously.
White people and those who feel they are white, never can fully understand the obstacles that black face in every country they are in.
The first thing they will tell you is that – black people are too lazy- yet it was these same black people whose labour during and after slavery helped build up their wealth from the plantation.
It is those same lazy blacks who cleaned their houses and raise their children and in many cases provided comfort to them in their beds.
But sadly black people as seen now by our bajan politicians,always want to ‘include everybody,and look out for every race – before they first ensure that their people or race are stable.
Because you sleep with an indian woman or eat some of their curry,does that mean that you must sell out the birthright of your people?
Or because you want to seem magnanimous or to be a true caribbean leader you decide (like owen arthur) to allow who so ever will to come in and live here and agree to all sort of recommendations – without consulting the people who have hired you for the job – that is the voters.
I hope you readers have been calling the constituency branch offices of these DLP politicians and stating your objection to the DLP inaction on the guyanese issue.
Please update us on what is going on out there and tell us of any fishy things happening with these people.

For too long Barbados has been the island which has been the country to patch regional relationships together. We have a history over many years of accepting the crap from T&T regarding fishing rights. We have allowed T&T businesses and others to freely enter our market to do business. Look at the distribution, retail and banking sectors.
Now we have seen the influx of large immigrant populations from other islands because the intellectuals and politicians all say that if the Barbados economy is to expand then we need to have the commensurate skills which can be generated from immigrant labour. This week we heard the weak voice from Minister Darcy Boyce saying that because of the advancement of women in Barbados who have elected to place career over family we have seen this leading to an aging population. He opined that incentives should be put in place to encourage increase child birth by Barbadians.
The statement made us go geeze!

Are you serious?
if Darcy Boyce said that it is in direct conflict with what clyde mascoll said last year about needing more immigrants,note not more bajans.
Now if this is the DLP belief – what are they going to do about the family planning aggressive strategy and about the increasing non nationals.
Last year a jamican statistician stated that barbados was having more foreigners having babies than bajans.
Think on that people.Our immigration laws and the qualification for citizenship needs to be changed right away.

Can anyone name three major issues that are working well, improving as planned and boding well for our future?
Is there anyone who cannot think immediately of more that twenty MAJOR crisis facing us (both globally and as a country) – each with serious potential dangers? …and for which there appears to be NO answer?
The final result of this immigration issue will be exactly as seen in Kenya and in South Africa recently….. EXACTLY. In every case we saw leaders who were so impotent from bribery or just plain naivety that they allowed the situation to reach the stage where previously peaceful communities erupted into madness over this identical issue.
It appears that the new DLP politicians are so overwhelmed with their new TV status that they are seeking to mimic the characteristics of Owing and Company.
No question they are a much better deal than the last lot of crooks, but it appears that they are NOT NEARLY up to the daunting tasks at hand.
The lack of initiatives in any of the major issues is disappointing…. (except for giving away the NHC houses which were a loss anyway peppercorn and expensive maintenance).
The ABC project continues to be a major joke. “Put down barber green, dig up barber green; Build curb, dig up curb; pave roundabout, dig up roundabout…..” Who is in charge of this work?
We heard of deadlines for 3s… then we hear nothing…
The diesel changes appears to be poorly thought out. There appears to be NO plan to date -and not plan to get a plan.
WORST OF ALL ARE THE LOT OF TOWN HALL MEETINGS ABOUT EVERYTHING. What a colossal joke.
A few people who have nothing better to do, standing around making incoherent speeches….. this is supposed to be helpful?!?
What town hall meetings what?!?
Total waste of time.
I suggest that DLP ministers do the following:
1 ….Stop trying to run the technical operations of the various ministries (when did Sealy suddenly become a tourism expert?)
2 ….Appoint COMPETENT persons to the various boards to undertake serious tasks (as opposed to POLITICAL awards).
David;
I challenge you to highlight the new Transport Authority Board and tell me where the ability to solve our transport problems will come from.
3 ……DEAL with those civil service jokers who DO NOT PERFORM. You telling me that the PS’s who were in charge of all those cost over run projects -the Oil terminal, the prison fiasco, Veco scam, the ABC flyover, Hardwood etc are still operating as normal?
…and we expect progress and change? …and you telling me about still time for alternative energy?

And listening today to that prig Dale Marshall pomper-setting on VOB today – it just confirmed to me the emptiness of those persons who are offering themselves for public office.
The talk was supposed to be about integrity legislation – organised by – believe it or not – Michael Browne the producer – who certainly doesnot understand what the word transparency means.
The DLP came talking their talk – but from all that was said by peter wickham – the DLP will keep the information on the assets of those elected officials – ie politicians – a private matter – and just as bad – they are not going to include Permanent Secretaries,Judges,Senators etc. as part of the group who must declare their assets.
Dale Marshall who as the person signing off on VECO and its massive $300 million dollars cost over runs – should really be feeling ashamed – but instead he displayed one of his and the BLP’s greatest quality – that of -Hubris.
Hubris seems to be an affliction of most of these politicians.
No wonder Chris Sinckler felt he could tell the electorate one thing during the election campaign – and then make his pilgrimage to the guyanese shrine – overseen by its head priest – Norman Faria – and make his shitey remarks.

Well if there is one thing that we can count on the blogs for it for wild and inflamed rethoric which really adds very little to sensible discussions. People who do not attend functions but pull a snippet of a speech here, a half reproted article there and off to the races the bloggers go. Cursing this politician or that public office and never really taking time to find out the real truth or even to properly analyze situations or issues.
This issue with Guyanese is a classic example. Pure hot air from Mr. Cadagon and his friends and no real analysis at all. Tell me what would you have the government of barbados do round up all of the guyanese and deport them because they are criminals in guyana. So by logic we are to assume that all guyanese are criminals and villians to be feared and chased back to their country.
well by the same logic are we to conclude that all the illegal bajans in the USA who went there on “vacation” and never come back should be rounded up and deported to barbados. Should we equally conclude that because people in barbados commit crimes in barbados that all bajans overseas are the same and the authorities should deport all of mthem.
we need to be more sensible that this common place hesteria being wipped up by people who dont know any better.
I was at the function that sinckler spoke at and i listened to him speaking in parliament on the same issue last week and i agree with his analysis which is simple.
The government of barbados needs to have a tight managed migration policy that recognises that there are limits to the number of persons we can allow to come into the country whether guyanese, english, trinis etc. Those who have entered the country illegally should be sought out and deported.
However those who have been let into Barbados legally and are known to be contributing to the development of the country need to be treated properly and without discrimination and ostracism. that is our duty not just as part of some treaty but because we are human beings and they are human beings too.
but some in Barbados feel that they could go into other peoples countries and expect to be treated with respect but can spit on people who come to ours.
it is nasty form of racism, classcism, and xenaphobia which barbadians need to get over. We are no better than anybody else and we are certaintly not more superior than anyone from the other islands.
What will we prefer to have people in the country with children not getting schooling and roaming the streets all day looking for mischief. Or maybe women who cant get health care so walk aroung with contagious diseases infecting people or given birth at home cause the hospital wont take them.
we need to get real. We dont want guyanese here but we want their cheap labour on our farms and in our houses. We dont want them here but like to pack them up in flies in rooms and charge them upwards of 200 dollars a week for a room.
of course we dont want them here we just want to exploit them because we know we cant exploit barbadians like that.
but i know that this non-sense we are reading on this blog like mmost other things will pass. I am old enough to remember mac fingalls song about indians ruling barbados in 2009 well we are mere months removed from that and i ent see no indians ruling barbados. Before that it was the vincentians that were going to over run barbados and that too did not happen.
need i say more.

The comment above alerts us how plain common sense has gone through the window when persons want to reinforce their point, like ‘Bring It On’ – above who asked us what do we want:
Do we want children not going to school and roaming the street getting into mischief?
or do we want women who can’t get health care – to be spreading around contagious diseases
or having babies at home?
Helloooooooo?
Shouldn’t we be insisting that these persons keep their children in their home countries to be schooled,shouldn’t we be keeping those out with contagious diseases instead of encouraging them to stay in Barbados and get health care,shouldn’t we NOT be encouraging these guyanese women to come here and have babies free of charge and then demand citizenship for them?
I hope you are not part of this DLP administration and that this is not their thinking or policy – else Barbados will be heading down a very slippery slope.
Since when did barbados get to be so wealthy that we can encourage the marrish and the parish to come bring their children,their pregnant girlfriends,their diseased uncles and get free schooling and health care because there are illegal bajans in New York – so we must stretch our meagre finances and according to Chris Sinckler -’reach out to the guyanese’.
This argument really boggles the mind.

How dare you equate Barbados’ size with U.S.A? This country is already over-populated, Guyana is very under-populated; why then should we be allowing them to come here willy-nilly and contribute to the over-crowding situation? There are islands in the Esequibo river bigger than Barbados. How can we allow illegal guyanese to enjoy free education, health care etc when really it’s not free but we pay very high taxes for these services N.I.S etc. These people pay nothing so yet we must reach out and allow them to reap the same benefits. Come on, get serious. All the little illegal children, their parents, cousins, aunts, uncles and friends; pack them up and send them back where they come from. If you don’t like that you could lead the deligation and foster them in guyana too. It’s not that we hate them but it is that we cannot accept the influx into B’dos and in my case I KNOW the history of them back in guyana and coming to B’dos to live will not change their mind set to blacks. Something is going to BLOW. the late Brook Benton sang “It just a matter of time.”

They should stay in Guyana where they belong, unless they are some money spending tourists, but other wise they need to stay home. There are more of them oustside their country than inside. That inself is wierd to me. Send them home/back to Guyana where they belong.
JC // June 2, 2008 at 10:07 AM
Get real and crew
ARE YOU ALL FOR REAL?
I am the first to say that these people should not be exploited and i make no apologies when I say that the bajans who do it is DOGGGGS.
Everyone should be treated equal.
But dont come and tell me that Guyana is under populated and big is ass and could have a Zillion persons living there and it would still not be a problem. But Lord have mercy man, how could you expect we to take care of them?
We taking care of our senior citizens, our children, the persons on welfare and now we have to take care of them too?
Wait who the hell is we?
Mother Theresa?
PPPPPleasee spare me.
The same people that talking bout let them stay in the end are going to be the ones to wake up when it is too late.’
I dont care what nobody says, I do not have a problem with those who come to Barbados and invest in my country but Oh lord Jagdeo or who ever he name will not accept responsibility for his people but want all of the Caribbean countries to take care of his own. And he have so many resources in his country?
Proper management and less corruption is what is needed.
And the comparison of USA to Barbados is stupid. Additionally, if anybody who is a bajan, guyanese or any other nationality that is illegal should be BLASTED WELL DEPORTED. simple.
So dont class me JC with other bajans that expect to be treated nicely. We dont expect one damn, but we demand respect in our country.
GO HOME GUYANESE. GO HOME.
Go build your nation into the great nation I know it can be.
Get rid of your president and government. Unify oneself.
Carson C. Cadogan // June 2, 2008 at 12:20 PM
BRING IT ON
You do not have a clue what is going on.
You, Chris Sincler, Owen Arthur are all the same, visionless.
The comparison which you made between Bajans and the US to justify the deluge of Guyanese into Barbados is the Mount Everest of foolishness.
Barbados is a tiny drop in the ocean, we used to say 21 long and a smile wide. You have any idea how small a smile is Bring it on? America is a huge country, vast resources, excellent infrastructure, everything works, capacity to absorb huge numbers, not so Barbados.
You, Chris Sinckler, Owen Arthur are trying to pour a gallon into a pint pot. It just will not work. I thought Chris Sinckler had more sense!
These people are mashing up their countries and then running from the chaos they have created.
You seem to be saying “come no problem” not realising that they will do the same to Barbados in the not too distant future.
You need a strong dose of common sense Bring it on.
Bring it on // June 2, 2008 at 1:35 PM
Well as i predicted. Wild, senseless and purely ignorant and xenophobic commentary will ensue follow my intervention.
Attack the messenger if you cant deal with the message. Simple thinking from simple minds produces unimaginable ignorance. Mr. Cadagon tek a bow.
Where did you hear me (or chris sinckler or even owen arthur for that matter) say that anyboby should allow Barbados to be overun my guyanese? Did you even read my post at all.
Which language do you wish me to put it in so you could understand it cause clearly english is not working for you and your racist cronies.
Did i not say that the country needs to have a managed migration policy to limit the numbers coming into Barbados and staying because of our size and resources limitations?
Did i not say that local authorities should pursue all illegal aliens and deport them from the country?
What is your problem boy? are you intellectually challenged or what?
Nobody is advocating a flood gates policy on guyanese but the fact is that Barbados cannot live in total isolation from the rest of CARICOM or the world no matter how xenophobic people like you are. Our development will just stall.
Tell me are you going to be sending your children to work on agricultural plantations in Barbados for sub-standard wages. Maybe you will yourself go and mix some concrete on a construction site?
Bajans dont want to do that kind of work cause we are above that so who exactly are we going to get to do it. Well we should just round up all the guyanese deport and shut down the agri- and construction sectors. Yes that is a good idea Barbados can survive without those sectors we dont need them.
better yet let us round up all the guyanese carry them in town and shoot all of them. Then You Mr. Cadogan will have a Barbados free of those crook, criminals, and inferior types from guyana and threaten to destroy our precious Barbadian civilization.
If you dont want guyanese here then i advocate that the UK, Canada, and the USA should deport all of the bajans living in their countries back to barbados where they belong and let them go and confuse their own country.
Yes I agree with Cadagon Guyana for the Guyanese, Africa for the Africans and of course Barbados for the Barbadians. The perfect world dont you think
You people need some serious help.
JC // June 2, 2008 at 2:00 PM
You need serious help bring it on.
No one is saying that everyone should round up the Guyanese and shoot them we are saying that they are toooooooooooo much of them.
It is not only us who are crying out it is the Antiguans, the Trinidadians, the Bajans and the list goes on.
Before the Guyanese came who was in our agricultural fields. I live in the country Bring it on And most of the fell0ws on the block work in agriculture, and are well paid.
Because you are an agricultural worker it does not me you are given mediocre salaries. What shite are you talking?
I want my son to become a farmer.
Bring it on what is your argument? I dont get it.
Right now at this point in time, one of my friends is a farmer, and he use to quarrel with me and say that I am to harsh with the Guyanese.
Ya want to know what I went on the block and he is now complaining bout them too. ha ha
I could not even laugh.
His problem was that they are now selling there produce at next skin too nothing causing him and crew not to be able to sell anything.
bring it on, David thompson and crew, the men on the block are on to you all .
And remember WE black people voted for you to ha ha

propaganda press // June 2, 2008 at 2:18 PM
aye some uh yall crazy. i gon name two places panama and usa. there’s a festival in panama [afro.antilleano] where Black people can trace their ancestry and i must say, turn of the century panama was ‘infested’ with bajans lol
same for certain parts of brooklyn too
and back in the 80s i went into the interior of Guyana and lo and behold there were families of bajans and ‘islanders’ living on the river. in some places there were more of them than Guyanese
my point is, don’t blame people cause they want to make a better life for themselves. we want all our people home but economics, politics and personal desires will determine where people go and don’t go…in the meantime we battling these clowns in Guyana govt
last i checked Grantley Adams airport was in the hands of bajan police, immigration and customs. no? and who hiring all these Guyanese when they come to Barbados? i know a whole family of construction workers in Barbados and none of them get paid by Guyanese
don’t build a wall around yourself as you might end up locking yourself in
JC // June 2, 2008 at 4:21 PM
Yeah we came into Guyana and we fitted in. Propa ganda we didnt go and try to divide and rule
propaganda press // June 2, 2008 at 4:41 PM
so if all the Guyanese in Barbados ‘fitted in’ you wouldn’t have a problem with them being there then and they could stay
Anonymous // June 2, 2008 at 5:13 PM
divide and rule whom. who are the guyanese divided? the only people dividing barbadians are barbadians. You got to get serious.
Listen to what i am saying stop blinded yourself with hatred and spite. If people are here illegally then put them out as you find them. But people who come here legitimately and we allow them in then you got to treat them with dignity not spite and hatred. They are human beings not dogs.
we have people living all over the world that are our family and we expect them to be treated properly and demand as much but bajans feel what they want for their own they cannot extend to others. It is sick.
If you want the immigration to stop all guyanese from coming here well that is your right and maybe the government should do just that. But i hope in the months coming when some foolish person in the USA or britain do the same to bajans you accept it with good cheer.
We go down at the US Embassy in the hot sun and beg like dogs for a visa to get in the US and when some of us get there we up foot and run off. But of course there ent nothing wrong with that cause the US big as shite so pile on the immigrants in the people country.
bajans boy absolutely amazing bunch
JC // June 2, 2008 at 6:05 PM
annonymous I know of many incidences where these guyanese think that we bajans are foolish. Dont tell me no foolishness bout when the Guyanese come here them aint gonna divide and rule.
You see how it is in Guyana, Trinidad and the all those who have many Indians. The (black )Guyanese themselves tell you how they are treated.
AND you dont tell me no shite BOUT WHEN WE GO TO THis place and that place that we want to fit in.
I dont give to hoots about the Americans and thier problems. I care about here and now.
If you do the crime do the blasted time. No bajan and I repeat no bajan has no right to go to people’s country and expect to be treated like angels or kings and queens.None of them.
I dont have a problem with those who are “legal” I have a problem with our open door policies.
And when bajans can be insulted to their face all of a sudden you hear I Xenophobic Please.
It is my opinion that when you have blasted issues with anything that is unscrupulous in your country you are racist and buyous.
give me a braeak anon. I remember my relative who has american citizenship tellin me some crap bout how america is no black man country and yet still she there and is the same color as me BLACK.
I was the first to ask her what the hell she was doing down there.
So how dare you try to make me out to be this and that.
I fighting for my children’s future.
dont tell me no shite. I know guyanese who I tel all the time to go back and fight for their country. I dont victimise them I dont treat them with scorn.
You dont know me and my values so dont blasted well judge me.
David // June 2, 2008 at 6:11 PM
We listened to David Ellis today on the afternoon call in show with great interest. For whatever reason some discussion about the Guyanese issue was allowed. Was Michael Browne ill today?
David Ellis explained VOB’s policy of suppressing discussion on the Guyanese issue on the need to avoid inciting violence against emigrants because of the fear of what is currently happening in S. Africa.
It seems that we are in a stalemate position. We suppressed the frustration of a nation by shutting off comments which history shows may lead to social fall-out or we discuss it and trust the level-headedness of Barbadians.
Anonymous // June 2, 2008 at 6:33 PM
Maybe David Ellis was reading the Barbados Underground and is realising that this guyanese issue is a hot button topic.
Did you hear this evening news at 5:30 p.m. where the guy from gender bureau stated that a report done by either the ILO or some foreign organisation says that there is a lot of human trafficking in Barbados and the report says most of it is coming from Guyana.
For those who don’t understand the fancy term human trafficking – all it is that guyanese and bajan people bringing in guyanese women and maybe men – promising them jobs and them luring them into prostitution here in Barbados.
This happened according to USA officials with the sanction of big up persons in the BLP administration.
No wonder Owing the drunkard and tief told us to back off the guyanese.
This is the positive contribution that people like norman faria,and De Gap and Bring It On and Chris sinckler tell us that these people are making to this society.
For the first time in our history Barbados has now had to carry that stain and be linked with these other backwater corrupt countries like Ukraine,Nigeria,India,Nepal and others.
This is what these wonderful guyanese has brought us to.Tarnished our international reputation,dragging us down in the human index as our people are now forced to rent rooms instead of houses,and our people are being faced with the prospect of no job or low,low wages.
Over to you David Thompson – take your time – no hurry – we can wait while Rome burns.
Carson C. Cadogan // June 2, 2008 at 7:33 PM
The only thing that I am waiting on now is for Chris Sinckler to start insulting Bajans in favour of Guyanese just like his buddy Owen Arthur.
My two cents worth.. // June 2, 2008 at 8:19 PM
If there are Guyanese who are giving trouble in Barbados it is because there are Barbadians who let them or in exploiting them put them in bad conditions. For example, the house next to a relative of mine is now rented out to Guyanese and they have been allowed by the Barbadian owner to keep the place a mess. Litter is now all over the place and rats are now frequently seen running across the area in the early morning and late evening periods. A Public Health Inspector actually came by looking for breeding areas for mosquitos but was not concerned with the overgrown bush nor the garbage which included rotting kitchen waste and soiled diapers which was strewn about by the dogs who had torn open bags of garbage placed by the roadside for the Sanitation Service. What must also be said is that Barbadians are also putting their garbage now by the same property! I don’t know how many rooms or bathrooms the house has but there are at least 6 adults and 8 small children residing in the house that used to house a family of 4 before! So it is easy to blame the Guyanese (who are black by the way) but what is the role of the Barbadian landlord, the Barbadian Public Health Inspectorate or the Barbadian residents of the area who actually add to the problem? I noticed the agriculture Minister complaining about Barbadians who sublet land at Spring Hall to Guyanese instead of farming it themselves. The fact is, the Guyanese are here because Barbadians want them here and will exploit them if they can.
The DLP elite (just like the BLP elite) are not going to do anything because they only care about getting power and now that they have it really couldn’t care less. In fact while we blame VOB for restricting discussion on the issue, it is my understanding that VOB is actually doing the GOVERNMENT’s bidding. The scary thing is that should things go beyond a few persons writing or talking about this issue, the Government will use the Defense Force against the people. There are many powerful Barbadians who are benefitting from the Guyanese (and others) being here. They will use maximum force to put down any public dissent. Be warned Barbados, make no demands.
The scout // June 2, 2008 at 10:42 PM
My two cents worth
That’s the way they live in guyana and they are bringing their dirty habits here. The Queen was visiting guyana a few years ago and it took two backhoes an entire week to clear an area of garbage from a street where the entourage was passing. The canals are so full of garbage that you can’t see the water. Their mosquitoes are the size of our flies NO JOKE. They are sending us backwards no 30 yrs or 40 yrs but to a situation that we’ve NEVER been. Any bajan who is encouraging this could join them an the same flight back to Stinky Town guyana

anyhow, at Guyexpo last year a lady from flying fish land name mia motley i think her name was. she and her delegation touch down in Guyana with red carpet welcome by jagdeo the crook. smiles all around
it was sometime around here he offered her and her entourage land in Guyana at $5/acre…later on he said Guyanese can get the same offer too [good luck if you Guyanese getting that deal]
but this is the best. Barbados had a big booth at Guyexpo and you know what mia and company advertising to Guyanese? come to Barbados! they seem to be doing brisk business handing out flyers
The People's Democratic Congress // June 3, 2008 at 8:39 AM
One of the first major acts of a future newly elected PDC Government shall be to make sure that Barbados is quickly but properly withdrawn from out the Caribbean Single Market and Economy (CSME). For, never since the time of the inauguration of the West Indian Federation in 1958 – and which collapsed in 1962 – has there been as big an ideological and political farce as this CSME is to have ever been foisted on an already historically vulnerablized and marginalized CARICOM sub-region, by as ideologically and politically backward and inept a coterie of then so-called Caribbean leaders and technocrats as that that did help to inaugurate such, and as those similar ones that are now helping to keep such a monstrous affliction in place.
Regarding the vexxed problem of excessive Guyanese immigration into Barbados – and which has festered very terribly since the same Owen Arthur sought to actively pursue this CSME foolishness, we in the People’s Democratic Congress surely DO and WILL NOT mind the entry into and stay of Afro- Guyanese in Barbados, provided they respect the real laws, customs and heritages of the Barbadian people, provided they will be properly integrated into the Barbadian society, and provided they – the vast majority of them -continue to make serious and meaningful contributions – as they are presently making – to the sustained development of Barbados. But, at the same time, while we DO NOT hate the Indo-Guyanese and while we DO NOT REJECT their past and present contributions to modern Caribbean civilization, we nevertheless DO and WILL CONTINUE to have a serious and fundamental problem with these Indo-Guyanese coming into our country and believing that they can – without working together in this regard but through some invisible guidance and orchestration – be still however laying the foundation for the bringing about of a huge Indian population in this country in the future, by primarily allowing themselves, and by also having others – some Barbadians included – encourage them to do so, to overstay their time in Barbados and to be conveniently entering into marriage relationships with born and bred Barbadians, et al.
Well, a very clear and strong message must be sent to them, and the relevant others encouraging them here, by our party that very large numbers of Barbadians that we talk with and associate with DO NOT and WILL NOT be accepting of their prolonged presence in our country. And that they and we are prepared to use every legal and constitutional means at our disposal to make sure they are EVENTUALLY ROOTED OUT TO HELL out of our country, in interest of national strategic development of our country and in the interest of the sound, orderly and harmonious development of our country, now and in the future.
Moreover, under a future PDC Government, a NEW Constitution of Barbados shall be promulgated that shall require, et al, that children being born in Barbados of non-Barbadian or of even mixed Barbadian/non-Barbadian parentage, and that a non-Barbadian becoming married to a Barbadian ( by birth and of full Barbadian parentage too – being a so-called naturalized Barbadian is totally out of the question to start with ), SHALL NOT automatically qualify – in the first instance of the above – of any children being born here – without both parents being Barbadian parentage – FOR BARBADIAN CITIZENSHIP – and in the second instance of the above – being a non-Barbadian person marrying a Barbadian person (in the sense of the above) here in Barbados, SHALL NOT TO QUALIFY (again) FOR AUTOMATIC BARBADIAN CITIZENSHIP, as well. Henceforth, these kinds of rationalizations and their meanings must be absolutely instructive to ALL Barbadians who have or ought have the understanding to know about them and ALL non-nationals who have or ought have the understanding to know about them too.
Finally, we appeal to as many Barbadians and as many other people as possible to get hold of a copy of the thoroughly riveting and revealing book: Pan-Africanism, Pan-Africanists, and African Liberation in the 21st Century, by two collaborating Pan-Africanist intellectual scholars – Professor Horace Campbell and Mona UWI PHD doctoral student Barbadian Mr. Rodney Worrell, who both, in their respective instalments in this book and which would have been as a result of two seperate lectures that were given by each at different times in 2002 – Professor Campbell’s on the 25th May and Mr. Worrell’s on the 23rd July – but at the same venue at the Isreal Lovell Foundation, My Lords Hill, St. Michael in Barbados, are yet offering many profound insights into how African and African descended Blacks here and across the world must become more aware of the many pertinent issues and challenges facing us here and globally, as we seek to build on that greater awareness and thereby to ensure our further survival and development at this stage of heightened globalization and internationalism.

JC // June 4, 2008 at 7:29 AM
I agree with two cents worth, it is about time that Barbadians who are exploiting these Guyanese be charged.
Bajans always want something for nothing. i know a black Guyanese man who tells me all the time that the bajan people wont pay him and sometimes he goes three weeks without being paid that is unfair vey unfair.
My suggestion to him at all times is to GO BACK HOME.
At least he would be around family and together they can get themselves together. We must not encourage these people to work for next kin to nothing. Since in the end we the people of Barbados have to end up feeding and clothing them.
Bajans wake up you should be charged when you know that those people are illegal immigrants.

I just returned from Guyan visiting my black Guyanese friends. I went to Buxton,Friendship & Vigilance. I love & respect my black Guyanese brothers & sisters. I can tell you from my visit that their is real tension between the black Guyanese & Indo Guyanese and it is only a matter of time before another major incidence occour.There is little interaction between the two races. I spoke to Guyana Defence Force soldier who said that Indo-Guyanese are committing crimes and blaming black guyanese.He also mentioned that he understand why Fineman Rawlins and the blacks in Guyana are responding in the manner they are responding.No work for them and as a result their families are hungry and suffering.The blacks in Guyana lived in absolute squalor.We blacks in Barbados must really assist the blacks guyanese.They are suffering terribly at the hands of the stinking,racist and destructive Indo-Guyanese.
I am extremely angry that those Indo-guyanese are allow to live & florish in Barbados the way they are doing right now.I am at my breaking point.I can feel the tension building up in Barbados the same way I feel it in Guyana.It is only a matter of time.
I believe this inept,stupid ass,I sorry I voted for governemnt is going to wait until the shit hit the fan before they react.
Trinidad is fed upwith them,St Marteen,Jamaica and all the other Caribbean Islands but we must be only one who is willing to accept them stinking Indo-Guyanese with open arms.They are a menaceto to the society.
I have a premonition Barbados is heading the direction of Guyana and the gains and the standard of living we have are going to be eroded by the stinkink,indo-guyanese .Where ever Indians go destruction follow.Trinidad & Guyana two classic examples.
DO WE WANT THAT FOR BARBADOS?

Perhaps,just perhaps there may be something david thompson,chris sinckler and dennis kellman and the DLP can learn from that.
If David thompson doesnot clear out these large number of illegal guyanese,and put a halt to the indiscrinate granting of work permits and citizenship – then I will know for sure that they were out and out lying and won the government under false pretences.

I want to congratulate the writer of yesterday’s Nation editorial – for taking the first and bold step of that paper in recognising the pressure immigrant population places on a country education,health and other benefits – albeit they were concentrating on the women who make up that group.
They also dealt with these marriages of convenience by these woman – translate that to mean guyanese in particular indo guyanese women – and the friction those relationships cause.
Perhaps David,BU could do a piece on these marriages of convenience here in Barbados by the guyanese and even others and the consequences or fallout of that.
JC // June 5, 2008 at 11:56 AM
I think that is a very good idea. I know persons who marry persons to get money.
For instance, my friend (a male) told me only last week that one of his Guyanese friends wanted him to marry his sister so she could stay.
This is ridiculous. BU should seriously think on writing an article on Marraiges of convenience.

There’s a big up guyanese business man in B’dos who is here because his woman came here illegal and married a bajan man. Stayed here for a year, then went back to guyana invited her bajan husband down and made him sign divorce papers. She then married her guyanese man and brought him to B’dos and they set up business here. Reports are that the bajan man still gets a commission out of the deal. No name no summons.

What you wrote on is a clear example of how indians think.
They will allow their daughter to marry a black man even though they hate blacks with a passion, if it means all the other members of the family from the great uncle back down can benefit from that arrangement.
Everything has a price and they have no principles where making money or getting a deal done is concerned.
Money is the god they serve.

I read all the nonsense you Bajans spouting on this site.You Bajans sitting in your little houses in Bankhall,driving up and down your twobit island ,feeling happy.Yet you do not even realise that you are still the whiteman’s slave.You do not control your country -it is the white own Bajans,Syrians and Indians who you detest that fully contol your lives and the government -all from behind the curtain.yet you believe that you are your masters.
You have taken on the whiteman’s religion and believe to God that it is yours.You put on your suits and walk around on Sundays displaying the Bible as if it was your own.It is the white mans book that was used for centuries to keep you in check,to let you feel no self worth,embarassed to be a blackman hence the destruction of you as an African.
The Whites,Syrians and Indians have their own religious book from many hundreds of years.What did you bring from Africa – the Bible?
You are of African decent,be African,only then can you say that you are not wearing the mask of the whiteman.
Shame on Bajans who have swallowed the whitemans bait -hook,line and sinker-now you are a ghost of what you should be ,blacksin -white mask.
Sorry for you bajans-your cork is ducked.
