Dear Editor,

The  Canadian Gold Exploration Company  Stratagold  is presently conducting gold exploration activities at Tassawini in the Amerindian Village of Chinese Landing in the Barama River, North West District.
It is my wish that the Ministry of Labour conduct an inspection into the operations  at Tassawini to verify the upholding of our country’s labour laws and to find out whether or not this company has any mechanism for dealing with  workers grievances.
My understanding is that the company can hire and fire you for the least default without any investigation. The workforce of the company consists mainly of Amerindian residents of Chinese Landing and Santa Rosa villages. They are unable to seek redress for their grievances because the Ministry of Labour is out of reach of the workers because we are based or live in the North West District……
