PERHAPS the motto "United we stand, United we grow" as the conclusion of the strategies discussed at the just concluded Sports Development Forum towards Rio Olympic Games 2016 might have been a more positive ending. The one reason I am not a fan of the motto "United we stand, Divided we fall" is that it is much more of a difficult task to rise than from falling in Guyana.
Anyhow, great start of the initial process of a forum chaired by the Ministry of Sport's rep. Mr. Neil Kumar and attended by representatives of The AAG, GASA and GABA.

However, at the next forum, invitations should be extended to the following groups because they are key members towards sports development in Guyana...Representatives from the Ministry of Education; Ministry of Amerindian Affairs; The Private Sector;the Guyana Olympic Association; and perhaps  someone from the private Chartered Auditing Body of Guyana.

For starters, it is my opinion that the forum was the birth towards the development of sports (RIO) and in all fairness, one has to allow it to be nurtured and executed in a structured and timely manner. During the process, it is my expectation that all responsible officials involved along with stakeholders will showcase professionalism along with transparency and accountability during and after the completion of the venture.

Having said that, it's time for me to begin my preparation of my photography project in covering the 2012 National School Championships for my Tourism contribution and I am rooting for the National Stadium to once again be the host venue.
