| Chairman of the Women and Gender Equality Commission, Indra Chandarpal, recently disclosed that the bodyAttorney GeneralAnil Nandlallis still to take a position on matters coming out of the recorded conversation between Attorney General Anil Nandlall and a senior Kaieteur News reporter.Chandarpal was asked specifically to comment on remarks Nandlall made about a female reporter from this newspaper, as her (Chandarpal’s) organization is one mandated to uplift women as well as maintain a moral society. But well over a month after the derogatory statements were made, the body is still to examine the matter.On October 27, Kaieteur News made public the aforementioned recording, during which Nandlall was heard referring to the female Kaieteur News reporter as a “li’l thing” and advocating for a relative of his to have an opportunity to “f*** de girl.”Two of his female colleagues in government and the National Assembly have since condemned his actions.Minister of Education, Priya Manickchand, and Member of Parliament Dr. Vindhya Persaud were the only two female People’s Progressive Party (PPP) officials to have pronounced on this issue.Manickchand, who received an honorary doctorate for her work in gender-based equality,Cheap NFL Jerseys China, was the first Government official to comment on the immorality of the utterances made by Nandlall in the recorded conversation. She said, “What Nandlall said was crude and disrespectful and flies in the face of the environment that we (the government) are trying to establish and foster in Guyana.”Manickchand noted that the environment is one in which women should be treated as equals and celebrated for their worth in the development of Guyana and “not seen as chattel for men to use.”Dr. Persaud, who always has a voice on moral issues told Kaieteur News that she found Nandlall’s remarks to be extremely uncouth.“We as women have been fighting for some time to ensure that we are not seen as objects and I think that his (Nandlall’s)Indra Chandarpalcomments in that regard were just absolutely obnoxious.”Persaud said too, that she would let him know that she found his remarks to be very offensive to women.Meanwhile, Chandarpal, after indicating that the Women and Gender Equality Commission is still to consider the issue and take a position, emphasised that she “does not want to be drawn into any controversy at this point and time”.There has also been silence from the likes of Minister of Human Services, Jennifer Webster; Public Service Minister, Jennifer Westford; Minister of Foreign Affairs, Carolyn Rodrigues; Minister of Amerindian Affairs, Pauline Sukhai, and Parliamentarian, Gail Teixeira. |
