Dear Friends,

Thanks for visiting the Unity Party (UP) website which we have established in order to provide you with information and updates on our activities and political work as we advance to the next general elections in Guyana. 

First and foremost, please understand that UP is dedicated to the coalition process for good governance in Guyana and, therefore, this party is a big open box with space for different personalities, ideas, ambitions, and expectations.  We have deliberately created an open box to be filled by patriots dedicated to the cause of making Guyana more beautiful, prosperous, and a place where no citizen should be left behind. 

This open box (UP) has to be energized by the young people and their new ways of thinking, while at the same time cherishing the wealth of experience and political know-how of the mature and seasoned participants. 

We have no time to lose in filling this Unity Party coalition box as our country is at its highest decline now, disaster is looming on the horizon due to the path that Mr. Jagdeo chooses to follow, a path of begging, borrowing, over taxing and out of control spending.

Unity Party’s commitment is to change direction and follow a new path of building our nation, we need a new pride in hard work, honesty, and to have an energetic government buttressed by reduction of taxes, cutting government down in size, and stimulating the private sector to be the real engine of growth. 

We need your ideas and your input in order to expand this party to truly reflect a wide cross section of Guyanese support which will lead to more inclusiveness and enhance the coalition concept.  Coalition politics combined with wise and creative economic policy is the answer for Guyana’s quagmire in which we find ourselves after years of mismanagement, corruption and lack of vision for our beautiful country. 

We in Unity Party feel that we do have a vision for Guyana and as you revisit our website, we have no doubt that we can capture your imagination and hone it into what we like to refer to as: “an ever-expanding vision”. 

As you glance through our library you will see a consistent trend in my essays of commitment to coalition politics for this country, of commitment to private enterprise growth, of commitment to the unity of our people, of commitment to our youth and women in their expanding role for a better future, and of commitment to contracting government through major constitutional changes. 

We are fast approaching the next general election and we need people like yourself who can contribute for a better Guyana - with your ideas, energy and financial contributions.

Our people in Guyana need your help, the odds are long but the prospects for change are looking better and better every day. 

Thank you again for your interest in this website and God bless you and your family.
 
One love,
Cheddi (Joey) Jagan.
