for what it’s worth, here is barry’s biography, written by barry and company. we’ve lined out irrelevant info and lies and have not added anything 

President Bharrat Jagdeo was born on 23 January, 1964 in the village of Unity on the East Coast of Guyana.

An economist by profession, he entered public service in Guyana’s State Planning Secretariat in 1990. After the restoration of democracy in Guyana in 1992, President Jagdeo became the Junior Minister of Finance one year later. Rapid promotion ensued, and President Jagdeo became Senior Minister of Finance in 1995. While Minister of Finance, the President led the production of Guyana’s National Development Strategy with the support of former US President Jimmy Carter’s Carter Centre. This led to the Carter Centre and President Jagdeo working with leaders in Africa who drew on Guyana’s experience with its National Development Strategy for lessons that could be applied in other countries.

After the retirement of former President Janet Jagan due to illness, Mr Jagdeo was appointed as Guyana’s President in 1999. Aged 35, he was one of the youngest Heads of Government in the world.

In 2001, President Jagdeo was elected as President, and was re-elected in September 2006.

President Jagdeo’s tenure in office saw unprecedented social and economic reform in Guyana, with improved access to education, rehabilitation of the health system, far-reaching land reform, the biggest expansion of the housing sector in Guyana’s history, expansion of the water and sanitation systems, and large-scale development of the road, river and air transport networks. In parallel, Guyana’s national debt was substantially reduced, new public procurement and competition laws were passed, and reforms to the tax, fiscal and investment regimes were implemented.

In September 2005, President Jagdeo was elected Chairman of the Board of Governors of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), a position he occupied until September 2006. He has been awarded the Pushkin Medal by the Government of Russia, and the Pravasi Bharatiya Samman Award by the Government of India

In recent years, President Jagdeo has spoken frequently of the need for developing countries to be to the fore in identifying solutions to avert the worst extremes of climate change, and has repeatedly raised the issue at the United Nations and summits of Latin American and Commonwealth Heads of Government.

Speaking in early 2008, President Jagdeo said:

innovation jagdeo style - taxpayers money given to his raping spiritual adviser son to buy $US32 million outdated WIMAX 4G network

“Despite the fact that our economy is suffering because most of our productive land is being impacted by rising water levels, we do not want to wallow in endless complaints about the injustice that climate change represents. Instead, we want to be part of a global coalition that stimulates innovation and creativity to enable us to leapfrog over the high-carbon development path that today’s business-as-usual trajectory suggests we must follow. 

As part of our commitment, we are willing to place almost our entire rainforest – which is larger than England – under the supervision of an internationally mandated body. We will do this if we can access the right market mechanisms to make it economically worthwhile.

We will not sacrifice sovereignty over our forest, and we will do nothing that blunts the life opportunities of our people. We will ensure that solutions are fair and equitable, and that as they are developed, all our people will have the chance to participate in devising them. But providing these fundamentals are respected, we stand ready to work with partners to implement a visionary strategy that combines sustainable forestry and accelerating the development of a low-carbon economy.”

As a consequence of President Jagdeo’s consistent advocacy for urgent action on climate change, Time Magazine and CNN named the President as one of their “Heroes of the Environment 2008”.
