President Bharrat Jagdeo keynote speech PART ONE of TWO

[GeetaCLall]

A Guyanese accent has a long drawl. I often wonder if I am sometimes unfairly judged by my accent (very similar to President Jagdeo's). I have lived in the US for 20 years, and have never taken a course to fix this; however, I know of many people from Africa and India, who do once they are working in the US and seeks to achieve their dreams (and I admire them for this). That said, I (and Mr. Jagdeo) can put a sentence together much better than the folks commenting here can..

[Akaneia896]

The president speaks like he is having problem shitting....

[raul1986cbl]

Guyana is the only South American country that criminalizes male homosexual relations (with penalties from two years' imprisonment and life imprisonment) The Society Against Sexual Orientation Discrimination (SASOD) has urged the government to repeal the discriminatory colonial-era law. I wish the President Bharrat Jagdeo promotes the abolition of the law at guyanese Parliament and create a new law that protects the rights of sexual minorities in Guyana.

[Stefanjrjullian]

@raul1986cbl I am not too sure if that law has ever been enforced.

English is the official language of Guyana. Pres Jagdeo is Guyanese but his bloodline is from India.

...it's not that he's "incompetent" or a "waste," it's that your level of understanding is not as high or your attention span is not long. He is mono-tone though, but not a big deal.

lol you guys need to fuck off.

[angryafghan]

bwhahahahah he confused billion and million! what an incompetent!

[Akaneia896]

This President cannot speak fluently, he is SLOW in speech. What a waste.................

[RedShin121]

@Akaneia896 Dude, Us Guyanese People can speak however we want okay? jeez Jagdeo does not have to speak fluent English to be the president of Guyana etc. etc. so back off

[angryafghan]

Clearly he speaks English fluently, with a marked Caribbean accent. However I don't understand how someone could serve as president were he unable to speak the official language.

Bharrat Jagdeo: Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign: Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Im-man´u-el (God with us) (Isaiah 7:14 Your Bible) And she shall bring forth a son, and you shalt call his name JESUS (Saviour): for he shall save his people from their sins (Matthew 1:21) For to you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord (Luke 2:11) Believe in Jesus Christ and be saved you (Acts 16:31)
