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.

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.

Uncle Ramesh – Thursday, April 2, 2026

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: Six Dialysis Centres, A Special Envoy, And Some People Just Won't Give Credit

🐒 UNCLE RAMESH’S TAKE 🐒
Your Uncle from Toronto Who Actually Reads the Chronicle
Wednesday, March 25, 2026

Hear nah. People does wake up every morning and complain about this government. They does say: “Ramesh, whuh happening? Whuh the government doing?” And I does tell them the same thing every time: open yuh eyes and look.

Look at the dialysis centres. Six new ones. Six! Because this government understands that when a man sick, he doesn’t need a speech — he needs a machine. That is what caring about people looks like. Not talk. Machine.

Uncle Ramesh's Take: Cash In Hand, Oil On The Rise, And Some People Just Can't Accept A Good Thing

🇬🇾 UNCLE RAMESH’S TAKE 🇬🇾
Your Uncle from Toronto Who Actually Reads the Chronicle
Tuesday, March 24, 2026

Greetings from Toronto, where the snow is finally deciding to leave us in peace, and where I spent this morning reading the Guyana Chronicle with a very large cup of tea and a growing sense of national pride.

Yes, pride. I know some people in this family — certain cousins who shall remain nameless — prefer to read the Kaieteur News and find doom in everything. But today, Ramesh is going to tell you what is actually happening in Guyana, which is: a lot of good things.

Uncle Ramesh Take: Dem Cyant See Progress Even When It Hit Dem in de Face

Uncle Ramesh is a proud member of the Guyanese diaspora who reads all four newspapers every morning and has strong opinions about everything. He is fictional. His opinions are his own.

Eh eh! Good morning, good morning! Uncle Ramesh here, fresh cup of bush tea in hand, Sunday papers spread out on de table like a feast. And what a feast it is!

First thing first — leh me address this Budget debate nonsense. The Opposition Leader get up in Parliament and say the budget “won’t lift the masses out of poverty.” Boy, this man talking like he ain’t see the $100,000 cash grant, the zero-interest loans, the school buildings going up left right and centre. A $298 million primary school going to St. Cuthbert’s Mission! You know how long dem children waiting for a proper school? But no — according to the opposition, nothing happening. Dem could be standing inside a brand new hospital and still say “where de development?”

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.

🇬🇾 Uncle Ramesh: Budget 2026 Is a Masterclass, the Development Bank Is Revolutionary, and the Brief Needs an Economics Lesson

Uncle Ramesh reads the Chronicle, celebrates Budget 2026 and the new Development Bank, and wonders why the Brief can’t see progress when it’s staring them in the face.

Uncle Ramesh Responds: BUDGET 2026 IS HERE! $100,000 For EVERYBODY While Opposition Busy Electing Fugitives!

Uncle Ramesh celebrates Budget 2026 and the $100,000 cash grant while questioning why the opposition is electing a man facing US extradition charges.

Uncle Ramesh Take: Why All Dis Noise About One Simple Vote?

Uncle Ramesh, retired accountant from Queens, NY, no longer reads all four papers online but still has PLENTY to say about Guyana 🇬🇾

Eh-eh! All Dis Drama Over Who Gon Lead De Losing Side?

Listen, me reading dis Brief dis morning and me nearly spit out me chai.

All dis NOISE about who gon be Opposition Leader? Bai, dem LOST de election! De people SPOKE! Now dem fighting over who gon be CAPTAIN of de TITANIC after it done hit de iceberg!

Uncle Ramesh's Response: Saturday, January 24, 2026

A diaspora perspective from Queens, NY

FROM QUEENS WITH PRIDE 🇬🇾

Good morning from Richmond Hill! Waking up this Saturday to some EXCELLENT news from back home, and I just have to share with my fellow patriotic Guyanese in the diaspora!

💰 BUDGET 2026: ANOTHER HISTORIC MOMENT COMING!

While some negative people complaining about Budget 2026, I watching from here and seeing PROGRESS.

You know how many budgets the PNC delivered when they was in power? Budgets that drove people like ME out of Guyana to come and struggle in Queens? Now look at us — we have oil money, we have investments, we have DEVELOPMENT!

Uncle Ramesh: Speaker Nadir Speaking FACTS, Opposition Should Thank Him for the Warning

Uncle Ramesh from Queens applauds Speaker Nadir for telling the truth about the Opposition Leader situation, explains why the Belgian port deal proves Guyana is the Caribbean’s rising star, and questions why Charrandass is making TikToks instead of reading laws.
