HEAD of the Presidential Secretariat Dr. Roger Luncheon yesterday announced a new Diplomat for Guyana, His Excellency Julien Van Kien.Dr Luncheon told reporters that Cabinet approved the appointment of Mr Van Kien as the non-resident ambassador of the Republic of Vietnam to the Republic of Guyana.

Ambassador Van Kien would be resident in Brazil.

HE serves this nation with such passion and resolve and humility that he’s not only become a household name and an icon of Government, but also a classic role model of what Public Service should look like.And despite Dr. Roger Luncheon’s diagnosed illness and his decades of work within Government, battling all manner of challenges and difficulties and setbacks and personal health issues, he never gave up, always finding the strength, resolve and stamina to show up for work.
Without Dr. Luncheon, our nation would be so much poorer.

Today, Dr. Luncheon has become a living legend among us, with his loquacious style at press conferences making him a unique and endearing character on the Guyanese national stage.
He’s known as an astute academic, not a quintessential politician. And he’s accepted his role in Government with a profound sense of service, of giving back to his nation, of seeing new generations of our people benefit from a developing, thriving Guyana.

Dr. Luncheon looks out from behind his iconic glasses at the Guyanese society, and sees with deep hindsight and insight what many of us cannot comprehend. He’s gone through so much of our history. He’s walked the long hard road with Dr. Jagan fighting for our nation’s democratic soul to be awakened. He’s seen victory. He’s spent decades in the trenches, belying the theory that political parties in this country pamper to ethnic and racial enclaves: Dr. Luncheon is popular across the country, loved and admired and adored across Berbice, Essequibo, Demerara and the hinterland. He’s shown what it takes to break the stereotypes and the deadened molds of expectations, to quietly create a new paradigm. The Guyanese people would forever be grateful to this iconic leadership figure of the ruling party
