www.gopetition.com is hosting a petition entitled    Repeal the honour given to Sir Shridath Ramphal.

It only took a minute.The link below takes you straight to the petition: http://gopetition.com/info.php?petid=2558

 

The most hated man among the Indo Guyanese, Shridath Ramphal is on the list of speakers for  a Conference in London

Can you believe that? Ramphal will be there representing Guyanese Indians. Goodness!

 

Sir Shridath Ramphal, was a member of the notorious Burnham dictatorship that plundered and pillaged Guyana for years. We ought never to forget that under Burnham, Indo-Guyanese were murdered, imprisoned falsely, raped, robbed and oppressed in a most fearsome way. Many simply disappeared into thin air. 

British and America's CIA aided  Burham's  party , the People National Congress, PNC, to massacre an entire village of  India Nationals and their descendants, the Indo Guyanese at Wismar , in May 24-26th 1964

Dear Mr. Ramphal,

 The world today seem to be expressing extreme love and respect to you. In fact the Indian Government just recently honored you Sir.

I imagine Guyanese the world over should all be proud of what you have achieved and the honor being bestowed upon you, however I personally feel ashamed that you have been so honored.

Mr. Ramphal, the disdain I feel for you is because of the actions, the activities you participated in during the reign of terrorism under a heinous dictatorship that sought to demographically destroy anything "Indian", It is laughable that the Indian government of today honors you Sir when as a senior member of that government it was you who rewrite the constitution to guarantee Mr. Burnham Presidency for life; it was you Sir, who amended laws that incarcerated many Indians; it was you Sir who aided by legislation, the atrocious robbery conducted against Indians of their properties.

Sir, as one of the senior most member of that dictatorship, you sat idly by (maybe you participated to a certain degree for personal enjoyment) as the daughters of the Indian people were raped to satisfy the lust of your greedy and lecherous leader. 

Sir, the honor lauded on you by the Government of India should be returned because you allowed Indians to be destroyed by Burnham and associates. Of course I do not expect you to take the podium and acknowledge any of this because after all, you are guilty as charged.

DITTO! My father always spoke of this low-life fudge-packer/eater. We should send a letter of protest to the Indian Government. Let them know how we feel, and perhaps make history by RESCINDING this terrible DIS-honor and injustice to our Indo-Guyanese people.

Ram,

I am of a younger generation and did not experience but heard some of what you have stated herein. And, I always believe there is some truth in any statement. How can a conscionable person accept such an award? I hope there was self repentance on his part, way before he accepted this award.

Hello All,    This fellow, possessing a most despicable disposition, and having stooped so low in his selfish and greedy life, has no choice but to accept, nay to grab at anything to pull him out of his sordid past and in his old age to present a seeming polished life. Most normal and really intelligent human beings would have a hard time to accept anything from decent persons or organisations that which they think they do not deserve. But this fellow whose inglorious past must torment him these enlightened days, would find great delight to be acceptable in our ordinary society.    I wonder who recommended this lackey and stooge of the anti Indo-Guyanese Burnham dictatorship! Why doesn't he just disappear from our view? Oh, how these debased characters love the limelight! No wonder, shit always floats around.   Balwant.

Why can't people ask PPP to publicly present the Wismar Commission Report?. The lone woman member of the commission of enquiry is still alive and is very much in Georgetown . Please ask PPP leadership why Jagan and Bharat declined to accept this report as an official enquiry commission report? . Also one wonder why PPP chose not to reply to the question raised by Eusi Kwayana in his commission of enquiry on Wismar ?

 

The woman member of the commission of enquiry who was appointed at the last minute as a substitute at the behest of Janet and Cheddy Jagan's  wife of a former medical partitioner in Guyana tried several times to submit the report to Government of Guyana for she really fears that the report would bring her something terrible to her family

 

Like Ramphal PPP is also paling cat and mouse game . When one can understand why Ramphal played a compactor or cheat to Indian society I am not able to understand why PPP should also be doing the same thing .After all Janet Jagan was the person who wanted an Indian women in the commission after she cried nearly an hour in the Guyanese Parliament over wismar. One wonders why such reluctance from learned individuals ?

 

Ramphal represents a class of Indians who use anything to archive their personal goal. Now its the duty of the Indians not only to expose but to prevent further muddling of their affairs by these award winning scholars

Can anyone document what invauable contributions Ramphal made to Guyana and then to the world?I lived through the darkest Burnham years and am scratching my greying hair to figure out how Ramphal was a genius!!!!

Perhaps Alzeimers iscatching up with me!!!

Anyone wants to document his contributions ---particularly to Guyana?

Cheers,

Imran

Imran, I guess we were sleeping when these contributions happened. I wrote sometime ago about this man, he did nothing good for the East Indian race of Guyana. He was Burnham's 'joeboy'.

Regards,

Linden

They honoured him for his work done in some highly recognised international posts.  Why didn't we expose him all this time if he supported a criminal element in Guyana in the past. W didn't write before it happened to the prestigous bodies that honoured him. So that the Indian Gov't would have known that he helped (whether indirectly)  suppress and oppress Indians.   Come on Guys, we ourselves allow the world to think that the man has integrity and is honourable.  Maybe, he can come forward and apologise for his misdeeds.  That would be okay with me. Peace

I did wrote 2 emails 6 weeks before he got the award. One email was sent to the Ambassador of India to USA and the other one to India Ambassador in Guyana. They just ignored the emails

Now, The Government of India will be in a embarassing situation

thanks

Thank you for info re Sir Shridath Ramphal.  For me, I have learnt so much about his accomplishments and brilliance.  He is indeed very outspoken and much of what he has said is very true.

Given the state of the world today, with the word 'terrorism' replacing 'communism' and who knows what 'ism' will be 'invented' in the future, no country will deny an award/honor to a person because that person committed 'atrocities' in their homeland.

During the Burnham regime, Guyana was in a chaotic situation.  Were it not for the Mideast war in the 70's where oil was used as ammunition and Guyana was affected, mainly because she was a 'newly' independent country, the outcome of Guyana may have been different and its populace would have been proud of the Ramphals of this world, who, in their own way spent the time to contribute voluntarily.

The U.S. State Dept., mentioned the level of Guyana's contribution to the world.  But it is a small country.  Guyana's level of intelligence and fairness is well recognised throughout the world through its ambassadors.

If a few Guyanese committed sordid actions during the chaotic times that Guyana went through, it will serve the Guyanese community on this web to move forward and make contributions to society as a whole, including the underprivileged, disabled, etc.,

Only unhappy people live in the past.  The future keeps beckoning, so take up the challenges.

Dora.

Hey,

Those that think Shridath is such a stalwart for the Indian cause,should go back to the days when he was the lynch pin in the PNC. What did he do for the Indians of Wismar and Georgetown? He may be smart, but for him to accept this honor on behalf of the Indian people of Guyana goes to show that the man has no integrity nor moral fortitude.

He may have done some good in his later life, but that does not wipe away his action (non action)during the PNC transgression. Shridath should acknowledge that he was part and parcel of the RAPE of the Indians in Guyana.
