Guyana Association of Georgia – celebrates Georgetown’s 200th
RECEPTION – Saturday July 28, 2012 – Decatur, GA
The Guyana Association of Georgia is collaborating with the Mayor of Georgetown and the City Council to celebrate the 200th birthday of the City of Georgetown and also to launch the Georgetown website with an aim of bringing the city back to “Garden City” status.
I am very glad to see that someone is thinking of what used to be the
Beautiful Guyana. The Garden City is now a dump the people do not regard
what they have they would throw the paper cups, bowls, plates, food boxes
and many other things all over the place, which should be cleaned by the city
council, the first thing you will hear that there is no money where is the money
that was paid in for taxes and all the billions that the PPP/C was collecting that
I have read about. The Government should make someone pay for that, because
it seems that some one was living ‘HIGH ON THE HOG’ on that money.
Why do organizations have to get together to help to put the CITY back together.
That is a shame. I was born in British Guiana where the streets were swept and
the drains were washed and the canals were cleaned, when the rain fell the
water ran freely, but now as soon as the rain set up the so call drains over flow
and after the rain, and the sun comes out the ‘GARBAGE’ is left on the grass
the place is so ‘STINK’ you would think that a SKUNK is around.
I have lots more to say, but I will do so later.
Congratulations to the Atlanta Group for twinning the two cities and for organizing this memorable event carded for July 28th in Decatur, Atlanta, Georgia. On a personal note, I was born in the Garden City of Georgetown, I experienced the beauty of that great city that is the home of the world’s largest wooden building, the St.George’s Cathedral. I am fortunate to be a Kellogg Scholar and also spent 2 years at the Emory University Campus and at the Center for Disease Control, in Decatur, Atlanta in 1990-1992.
It would be a fine idea for you to open a special event BANK account in Georgia where we can also contribute financially to assist your project. Project Organisors please note. Wishing you all the success in this event.
The world is both Positive and Negative. If we dwell on the Negatives, we shall be in a perpetual state of Mental Depression. Living in the Positive mental state allows for mental growth and development and a healthy state of mind that allows for positive thinking. If you want to become an achievor in this very life time. think Positively.
No one can solve the problems of this human race in this world. but at least we can try and fail. rather than fail to try whatever positive solutions we can offer towards makink this a better world.
