Fax: 592 226 9969Your Excellency:
The following 38 organizations from around the world are writing to express our concern for the security and well-being of Mr. Tony James, President of the Amerindian Peoples Association. According to the Executive Board of APA, in a statement issued on December 10th, there have been multiple incidents over recent months in which unknown
people have come asking about Tony’s whereabouts. In one instance, an unknown woman noted, “they want his head; they want him dead.”Though these are not the first of such kind of incident, this is the first time APA has felt sufficiently concerned about Mr. James’ safety to raise the issue at an international level. We are concerned about these occurrences based on similar experiences in other contexts. Surveillance and attempts to locate human rights defenders are often a precursor to more serious repression with the objective of silencing their voices.
The APA and Mr. James are well known and respected in the international community at large, among indigenous organizations, NGOs, funding agencies, and government representatives. Many of us have collaborated directly and extensively with Mr. James and others within APA for years, in some cases for over a decade. We hold in high regard the organization’s activities on behalf of indigenous rights within the Guyanese national context and Mr. James’ tireless advocacy within international institutions.
We respectfully request that you guarantee the safety of Mr. James and his fellow APA members against the prospective threat represented by these recent incidents. Should the APA report another incident of unknown persons looking for Mr. James or any other situation perceived as threatening, we would request that you launch an impartial and thorough investigation into the situation. We will be paying close attention to the situation over the coming months.

Guyana has fulfilled its commitment for the first tranche of funds under the Guyana-Norway Agreement.The first installment of US$30M of the US$250M pledged under the Agreement has been deposited at the World Bank, which will serve as the Trustee for the transfer of funds provided under the Agreement between the governments of Norway and Guyana, to support the delivery of Guyana’s Low Carbon Development Strategy (LCDS).
unless you want your comments deleted we’d advise you to stick to facts…Guyana has not received one red cent because it has not met the requirements of Norway

this can also shed some light on why Guyana has received no money
@ sharonstorm
It is suggested that you resolve to stop Internet trolling and attention whoring for 2011. It is expected that the Internet will become less anonymous in the future, therefore people who don’t yet know you will.
That could have serious implications for your livelihood as an Internet troll. Not that anyone give a fuck.
Your baby will be here in the coming year. You should also resolve to move out of your father’s house in West Ruimveldt and go on your own, even if it’s in one of those shacks on the seawall. All the ass-kissing, ppp stroking, dick chomping and carpet munching you did still haven’t returned anything beneficial to you. What do you have to do to get a house lot in one of those swampy areas the ppp like to give out? You are probably salivating and getting moist at the thought. Walk good in 2011 and think on those things.
