Dear Editor,
The distribution of National ID cards has commenced. Everyone who was registered during the house-to-house exercise is to be issued with an ID card. The ID card is of a good quality and is impressive, but in my case and that of others I have spoken to, the photograph on it is bad. Some are ashamed of the photograph printed on their ID card.
Some of the photographs are very dark, others are blurred or have too much light in addition to several other photographic issues. After finding out from a GECOM official about getting my picture corrected or my photograph even retaken, I was told there would be a claims and objection period for this.
Editor, GECOM has spent so much money on training and the purchase of expensive digital cameras and printers to photograph people all over the country, and they still seem not to get it right. It just means more time, money and resources to correct all the bad photographs taken.
GECOM should have done better.
Yours faithfully,
Latchman Sukdeo
Stop you complaining. ID photo in ABC countries are of poor quality as well. The quality was poor since before 1992.
Basmattie. Where do you stand. One time you are condemning the government, the next time you are making apologies for them. You sound very confused. You can’t have it both ways,eeeem, or maybe.
sarcasm maybe?
Sawak, and after 1992 it got worse. ISNM
Bismattie is very fickle.
Bhai Latchman,
Are the ID cards of poor quality or are you unhappy because the picture looks dark?
I would imagine that after your digital photo is taken you get to see the result and retake ,immediately, if you so desire. Any eight grader can operate such a device.
I don’t think so Gerogie…no second takes. You have to accept it the way it is.
Is this letter worthy of publishing? Sad Sad Sad!!!
Latchman Sukdeo why don’t you spend your time doing something constructive, like organizating some volunteers and clean your surroundings rather than wait for the government!! Guyanese complain too much.
