This certainly affirms my view that GUYANA is indeed an INVERTED SOCIETY...... ...This set of circumstances is a classic reflection of how backward, upside-down, inside-out..., ...in one word, INVERTED, Guyana really is........ The creation of a sordid current Guyanese history is now swamping everything else in its presence... ...including the occasion to truly celebrate an event of which we should all be proud; the celebration of the illustrious career of Justice Madame Desiree Bernard, CCH, OR..... An excerpt from Chris Rams reported take on the issue: “It should have been a moment of pride for our judiciary and a tribute to our own Justice Madame Desiree Bernard, CCH, OR on whose long legal career, including a place on the CCJ, the curtain will soon close.” Instead, he observed, the cocktails and lunches being arranged for the distinguished visiting legal luminaries will not erase the embarrassment of the most recently appointed member of our Appellate Court Justice Rabi Sukul being disbarred from practising in the UK by the Bar Council of England and Wales for intentionally misleading his client by drafting false grounds of appeal. “At every hopeful point at which the pessimists think the country has exhausted its sack of scandals, another one surfaces, exposing the immoral underbelly of a soulless country: one of failed, or dysfunctional, or non-functional national institutions.” According to Ram, “we – and I mean mainly the business class and the professionals – are too comfortable, compromised or cowardly to challenge the illegalities and improprieties that are perpetrated daily by public offices in Guyana.”
