Interim Management Committee for Georgetown

Dear Editor,
The situation concerning the management of the City of Georgetown continues to get from bad to worse, and NOW WORST (similar to when it was totally GREEN and up to when GREEN was CHAS(ED) from the seat of Mayor).
Now the Pandit who occupies the chair is obviously lost in a messed-up world of his own and his bosses’ making. His statements, in addition to doing irreparable damage to the Queen’s English, make absolutely no sense and are often an insult to the intelligence of the citizens of Georgetown.
While garbage is piling up everywhere in the city, this Mayor is being advised by his handlers to pick fights with every attempt to straighten out the inefficiencies at City Hall, the latest being the temporary appointment of a Town Clerk. Maybe he is angling for the KING to return to the throne.
Alleyways are overgrown and resemble jungles; drains are not cleaned; roads are impassable, with deep trenches daily damaging vehicles; markets are dirty and atrocious to shop in; and the list goes on and on, ending with the majestic CITY HALL only waiting to fall down like Humpty Dumpty.
I read recently that Government has decided to fund its rehabilitation, hopefully NOT under the present administration of the City.
Much more can be said that is critical of the administration of the city, but in the interest of brevity, I think I have made the point.
I remember years ago, soon after the PPP/C assumed office in 1992, the conditions in the capital were so atrocious that urgent action had to be initiated, and an Interim Management Committee (IMC)had to be installed to bring some order to the operations at City Hall.
I remember (and my apologies beforehand for making mistakes in mentioning names of persons who were not there and omitting others who were there and made valuable contributions) names like Dr. James Rose, Tony Xavier, Lawrence Mann, Suresh Naraine, Bish Panday and other reputable citizens of Georgetown taking over the responsibilities of managing the City of Georgetown.
To the relevant authorities, I humbly suggest that it is long overdue for another attempt at an Interim Management Committee to replace this bunch who currently occupy the seats of managing the City.
I am certain that the installation of reputable persons – interested in Georgetown once again being referred to as the Garden City and retaining its pristine condition – to manage the Capital City would achieve so much more than this clueless clique.
Please, timeliness is of paramount importance here.

With best regard,
