Addressing a crowd of thousands this past Sunday in Bartica, President Ali unveiled a sweeping development blueprint: roads connecting Sand Hill (Timehri) to Bartica, Goshen (Parika) to Bartica, and new highways extending all the way to Lethem. In a powerful phrase, he stressed that these roads must be “built with our stones made in Guyana“—highlighting self-reliance and domestic economic investment.
The event’s high turnout and enthusiastic reception underscore the growing support for PPP/C—and signal the party’s reach into areas traditionally dominated by the opposition.
This “massive, unthinkable transformation” message not only promises physical infrastructure but also harnesses symbolic weight. It signals a shift from dependency to independence, and from short-term campaign optics to long-term national empowerment.
The focus on local production reinforces PPP/C’s economic nationalism—it isn’t just about building roads, but building a nation.
Bartica, once a stronghold of APNU influence, is seeing a marked shift. PPP/C’s enhanced presence and spirited engagement contrast sharply with the opposition’s muted reach—highlighted by a poor showing at their recent meeting in the area.
As PPP/C penetrates new constituencies, the opposition appears increasingly reactive—unable to match both substance and spectacle.
This is not a one-off rallying cry, but part of a broader PPP/C narrative: accessible, equitable growth rooted in national pride. Promises of infrastructure, bolstered by community trust, create a powerful endeavor grounded in both urban and rural realities.
By highlighting domestic production and inclusive development, PPP/C continues to craft a campaign narrative that resonates—especially with voters seeking tangible change.
With national elections looming on 1 September 2025, this bold initiative marks a timely double-down on infrastructural credibility. It signals that PPP/C isn’t pulling back—it’s doubling down on development.
In contrast, the opposition remains vague—both in message and mobilization.
Tangible Leadership: PPP/C continues to deliver proposals grounded in local capacity—not buzzwords.
Broadened Appeal: Bartica’s reception reflects expanding reach into once opposition-dominated areas.
Contrast in Clarity: Where PPP/C offers tangible plans, opposition factions are overshadowed by strategic ambiguity.
Narrative of Self-Reliance: “Our stones” amplifies a message of cultural, economic, and political autonomy.
Last Sunday’s Bartica event delivered more than campaign energy—it issued a mandate: PPP/C is building the infrastructure of tomorrow, crafted by Guyanese, for Guyana. This bold stance, paired with authentic grassroots momentum, leaves opposition parties scrambling to catch up—or risk fading into the backdrop as PPP/C charts a clear, confident path forward.

PPP/C Charts Infrastructure Revolution in Bartica—Fueling Local Pride, Opposition Left Behind
Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
t is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).
Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of “de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum” (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem Ipsum, “Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..”, comes from a line in section 1.10.32.
