			<description><![CDATA[dem a warch meh is clearly blind as they and their cohorts in the opposition would never bring themselves to say anything positive in Guyana. Someone spoke about development and GUyana's resources, i do hope they took note of evey effort by the opposition to sabotage our progress, whether its targeting all the foreign investments for constant misinformation or slow fiya, mo fiya or making the country ungovernable.Imagine if we were not affected by all that political violence from the early 90's how far more developed this country would have been and pensioners would have obviously been receiving more. So many investors were scared away by the irresponsible acts of the opposition so they could have make the country ungovernable which was the only way they saw as their best chance to get into Government. So people need to get their heads out of the sand or wherever else they have it and recgonize these realities which they find as 'Inconvenient truths'.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[In reply to MERT.You claim that "they have not contributed to NIS or other pension schemes etc." Many persons have contributed to the NIS but do not qualify for pension from that scheme. You should investigate before flying your trap]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THE AGE-OLD HUMAN CREED OF 'LET THE HUNGRY BE FED, THE NAKED CLOTHED, THE SICK NOURISHED, THE AGED PROTECTED, AND THE INFANTS CARED FOR'? THE ELDERS ARE THE VESSELS THAT TRANSPORT MOST OF THE YET-TO-BE DECIPHERED SECRETS AND HISTORIES OF TIMES PAST. IN THE EVENT THEY ARE USED AS SACRIFICES, VAST AMOUNTS OF SPIRITUAL WEALTH AND PERTINENT INTELLIGENCE EXITS OUR GROUNDS. THAT THEY CANNOT FEED THEMSELVES IN A COUNTRY WHERE MONEY IS READILY AVAILABLE FOR LAUNDERING AND EMBEZZLEMENT AMONG AND WITHIN THE RANKS OF GOVERNMENT, IS TOTALLY EMBARRASSING. THE NETHERLANDS SHARE THE NAME OF A PLACE WITH A VILLAGE ON THE WEST COAST OF DEMERARA CALLED THE 'HAGUE'. IT IS WHERE PEOPLE ARE TRIED FOR WAR CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY. SO MANY TIMES HAVE THESE LEADERS MET THE CRITERIA TO BE MARCHED STRAIGHT THERE WITHOUT A PIT/[censored] STOP. IT WAS JESUS WHO SAID THAT IF YOU DO THIS UNTO THE LEAST OF THEM , THEN YOU HAVE WREAKED THE SAME PUNISHMENT UPON HIM...AND JESUS WAS A HUMBLE MAN.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[FYI pensioners don't pay for electricity or water. Even if they live with others a certain amount is taken off for that person. With that said I think the sum is still a joke. $2025 per week?]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Shame on the government of Guyana!! How come Jagdeo gets $1million on pension but other people have to live on $8,100??? His ass should live on $8,100...and Donald Ramotar when he gets out of office too. All those resources in the country and still they can't be better off than these small islands who have nothing!!!!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[While 600 may not be much to some, it is interesting to find out from your article that pension has more than doubled since 2006. Which leaves me to wonder what were pensioners really receiving two decades ago? I do hope that Guyana's economy continues to grow so it can support more larger increases in the future after all, the country's income must be able to sustain its social programme as we see when countries economies are affected how the vulnerable such as pensioners suffer, in some cases losing their pensions all together. From readng the article i discern that the pensioners themselves understand the reality of the situation but as everyone would naturally do, they would expect more.]]></description>
