PNCR Arrival Day Message
The People’s National Congress Reform joins with all Guyanese of Indian descent to commemorate the 176th Anniversary of Indian Arrival Day and celebrate the tremendous contribution made by all of these valuable persons, who shaped every area of national life to help make Guyana a much richer place. We salute all of our Indian brothers and sisters as we celebrate this special commemorative day.
The PNCR is happy to be identified with all groups in society who seek to celebrate the achievement of our ancestors whose courage, personal sacrifice and commitment have helped to create a unique tapestry of people called Guyanese.
The Party also believes that this is also an opportunity for the nation to understand that we all share a common destiny and that racial harmony, tolerance and understanding are essential to the further and overall development of this country. The development of Guyana can no longer be deferred. It is, therefore, essential that all stakeholders, especially political parties, and all relevant social groups and organisations make a firm commitment to exercise honesty, maturity and good judgement in order that this nation can put an end to racism, which has often stymied the development of our society and nation.
On this occasion of the 176th Anniversary of the Arrival of East Indians in Guyana, the PNCR calls on all our citizens to reflect on the significance of this occasion and to take to heart the lesson that racial harmony and understanding are the keys to our survival and long term development and joins in wishing all Guyanese citizens of East Indian origin a Happy Arrival Day.
