Guyanese Demand Two Political Debates Between The Candidates!

Guyana National Election:

Having public debates are a growing phenomenon in most Democratic and developed countries. Britain only recently followed the USA with their first political debate. The Ivory coast also had it's first political debate yesterday. It is also the view that hitherto, politicians did not have to face their constituents and answer questions in any detail about what they intend to do. So they just gave a peripheral explanation about their intent.

And hoped that their constituents would be convinced enough to vote for them. And the constituents were never able to witness their elected officials respond to questions on transparency and accountability. Or respond to questions about their motives for running for Public Office, issues that the commonweal expect to be honored and respected by all elected officials.

Therefore, in light of the above observations, I strongly recommend that all Guyanese get the opportunity to watch at least two Public Debates between the candidates who intend to, or is running for the Presidency and Prime Ministership of Guyana.

This MUST be conducted in a public venue, with TV and radio broadcasting the proceedings, and monitored by some official who is not politically affiliated to any of the contending parties, and is impartial to this election, or the political candidates contending.
