Each culture has its own dress code

Dear Editor,
Is there an anti-tourism organisation in our country? I ask this because I saw an article in the press from a female writer complaining about how the Brazilian women coming to Guyana dress in revealing clothes, which is not the norm in our society. Poor girl, should we not make a collection and send this writer to Miami Beach, Cancun or such places to see how people dress.

Maybe she should also go to Palestine or a Far East country where women have to be covered from ankle to head. Each culture has it own dress code.
Yours faithfully,
Victor Fitt
