Ramesh Sees It Differently — April 10, 2026

Good morning. The numbers are in for the first quarter and they confirm, once again, what this administration has known all along: vision, discipline, and petroleum produce results.

THE $159 BILLION QUESTION

Let us be direct. When critics said this government could not manage oil revenues responsibly, we noted their doubts. When they said the Natural Resource Fund would become a political instrument, we noted their fears. G$159 billion in a single quarter. Deposited. Documented. Published in the Official Gazette for any citizen to read. This is not an accident. This is the consequence of a government that insisted on transparent governance of petroleum wealth when the easier path would have been to spend first and account later. The easier path was not taken. The results are visible.

Uncle Ramesh Sees It Differently

Thursday, April 9, 2026

A pro-government perspective on the week’s events, brought to you by a man who has never once questioned a press release.

THE CASH GRANT APP IS WORKING FINE (FOR SOME DEFINITION OF FINE)

Look, 150,000 people have received or are in the process of receiving their $100,000 cash grant. That is a lot of people. Finance Minister Ashni Singh announced this himself, on Facebook, at night, which is the sign of a man who is dedicated. Yes, some people say the app is slow. Some people say the facial recognition rejected their fifteen-year-old ID photo. But Uncle Ramesh asks: have you considered that the app is simply very thorough? The government has promised the portal will remain open. Help desks are being established. Cheques are being printed for Region Nine residents who don’t have bank accounts. This is a comprehensive rollout. The people who are complaining have simply never been responsible for distributing money to a nation before and therefore lack perspective.

Ramesh Sees It Differently – April 8, 2026

Good morning. Ramesh here. A lot of negativity out there this Wednesday. Let us set the record straight.

US$761 MILLION. YOU ARE WELCOME.

Guyana collected three-quarters of a billion US dollars in oil revenue in the first quarter of 2026. Let that land for a moment. Three. Quarters. Of. A. Billion. US. Dollars. In one quarter.

This government built that. This government negotiated those contracts, developed that infrastructure, maintained the institutional relationships with Exxon, Hess, and CNOOC that made this production possible, and created the conditions for that revenue to flow into the national treasury at this scale and at this speed. Other countries have oil. Not all of them have the leadership to monetise it responsibly, sustainably, and at pace. Guyana does. Let the number sit with you before you move on to whatever Kaieteur News has decided to be alarmed about today.

Uncle Ramesh – Friday, April 3, 2026

By Uncle Ramesh, steadfast PPP/C supporter, proud Guyanese, and man who is having a complicated Good Friday.

People, Uncle Ramesh going to be honest with you today. It is Good Friday. A day for reflection. And I have some reflecting to do.

First — the tariff. Thirty-eight percent. On Guyana. From the United States. That is a lot. Uncle Ramesh was not expecting that. The Ambassador was just here telling us the oil deal is fine and Exxon is great and everything is win-win. Now her boss put a 38% tariff on we exports. Uncle Ramesh notes the contradiction without further comment at this time.

By Uncle Ramesh, loyal PPP/C supporter, road-safety enthusiast, and man who has never once owned a tinted vehicle.

People, today I feel vindicated. You know why? Because this government is SERIOUS.

The tint crackdown start. And I, Uncle Ramesh, have been saying for years that these dark-glass criminals hiding behind tinted windows needed to be dealt with. Now Minister Walrond say “don’t call me” and Traffic Chief Singh deploy the tint meters. EXCELLENT. This is what law and order looks like. If your car legal, you have nothing to fear. Simple as that.

Uncle Ramesh – Wednesday, April 1, 2026

By Uncle Ramesh, proud PPP/C supporter, retired civil servant, and man who has never once been wrong about anything.

People, I wake up this morning and I feel good. You know why? Because this government — MY government — is moving Guyana forward again.

First thing I see: the Digital Identity Card Act is now in force. Mark Phillips himself sign the Commencement Order. Two years in the making and now it real. You know what that means? Modernisation. Digital future. I know some people want to grumble about the Data Protection Act not being in force yet, but listen — you can’t rush everything at once. Rome wasn’t built in a day. Neither was Pradoville.

Uncle Ramesh's Take — Tuesday, March 31, 2026

Uncle Ramesh is a proud PPP/C supporter who sees the government’s hand in every good thing that happens in Guyana and an opposition conspiracy in everything else. He does not do nuance. He does do passion.

Good morning, good morning, GOOD MORNING.

918,000 barrels of oil per day. You read that? 918,000. In FEBRUARY. Let me say it again for the people in the back who are still sulking: nine hundred and eighteen THOUSAND barrels. Every. Single. Day.

De Boys Seh: Whose Streets Are These Exactly?

De Boys Seh is a weekly community roundtable. De boys gather. De boys talk. What could go wrong.

Shorty: Bai, yuh see de water out deh dis morning?

Tallman: My drain? Full. Me neighbour drain? Full. De gutter in front Mr. Persaud shop? Full. Everybody drain full except de government plan fuh fix dem.

Porkchop: Dem drain been de same since my grandfather time, bai. Dem drain older dan independence.

Uncle Ramesh — Friday, March 27, 2026

Uncle Ramesh is a retired accountant from Berbice, now living in Queens, New York. He reads only the Guyana Chronicle. He has opinions.

Listen, I read the Chronicle this morning and I feel good. I feel GOOD.

Now everybody vex because the government take over twenty-two streets in Georgetown. Take over? TAKE OVER? You mean RESCUE. You ever drive down Robb Street? You ever see what City Hall does with a pothole? They put a cone next to it and leave it for six months. Now the Ministry of Public Works has those streets and people acting like is a coup d’état. The same people who complain the roads bad are now complaining that somebody is going to fix the roads. Make it make sense.

Uncle Ramesh Responds: Mortgages, Nurses, and the Brief's Selective Memory

Uncle Ramesh is a retired accountant from Berbice, now living in Queens, New York. He reads the papers — especially the Chronicle — and provides his perspective.

Monday morning and the Brief leading with Azruddin showing up late. That’s the headline? A man who is US-indicted, facing extradition, and can’t be bothered to arrive on time to his own hearing — and the Brief treating it like comedy instead of asking why the Opposition Leader has such contempt for the judicial process?

Uncle Ramesh Responds: The Government Building, Not Destroying — Read the Chronicle, Not the Obituaries

Uncle Ramesh is a retired accountant from Berbice, now living in Queens, New York. He reads the papers himself — especially the Chronicle — and responds to the Brief’s coverage with his own perspective. He is unapologetically pro-government when the government deserves it.

Alright, alright. Everybody crying about Stabroek News like the whole country falling apart. You know what else happened this weekend? A US$120 million training college opened in Port Mourant. Thirty-five young Guyanese already working offshore. Certified. Employed. Earning real money.

📊 Weekly Progress Report: February 5-11, 2026

This week’s government achievements: Budget 2026 approvals rolling through Committee of Supply, Gas-to-Energy at 68%, new Amerindian hostel funded, recycling centre launched, and 30 bad contractors blacklisted.

Uncle Ramesh's Take — 'Dem Cyaan See Progress If Yuh Put Blindfold Pon Dem Eye'

Uncle Ramesh reads the Chronicle cover to cover, watches the budget debate livestream from Queens, and can’t believe the opposition opened with a gold-smuggling MP demanding mining transparency.
