GT&T in low carbon strategy

Link

GT&T’s Cellink subscribers have started to receive SMS texts giving pointers on Guyana’s Low Carbon Development Strategy (LCDS) and directing them to its website; joining forces with the Office of Climate Change to promote the Strategy.

According to a Government Information Agency (GINA) press release subscribers would have received texts reading “Did you know? Guyana launched its Low Carbon Development Strategy! It saves the rainforest and supports sustainable economic growth. Visit www.lcds.gov.gy”

President Bharrat Jagdeo launched the LCDS which is a draft document of Guyana’s potential approach to advancing economic growth while combating climate change on June 8.

The public can access the document and supporting information from the aforementioned website or from the GINA website located at www.gina.gov.gy

I don’t care about GTT’s efforts/support for the president’s ignorance (oops I mean initiative) and I am prepared to switch networks if they send that text to my phone.
Furthermore, I don’t even want to hear anything else about the LCDS, since I have not heard what it will do for the normal Guyanese, you know:

Like our teachers, nurses, etc many of whom do not make a million dollars per year after taxes;
Yet if they want a car they are expected to 2million and about for a reconditioned car, primarily because these vehicles attract 100% duties even though many of then have no less that 35000 km already on them. I guess no one taught our great economist about depreciation.

And are expected to pay as much as half or one million dollars for a 50×100 plot of land to build a house. While the state propaganda machines laud The grow more food campaign; I guess the citizens are plant in boxes.

Another president’s initiative, I guess.

I could go on……….
