Dear Editor,

I am a resident of Linden and was at the One-stop-shop programme held in Linden. I stand here as a witness that the programme was free and fair regardless of race; everyone had to follow instructions. One of the PNCR female councillors got preference for teachers in Region 10, who received great coverage. Why not write about the positive aspects of the programme, instead of just the negative, which were few?

When we look at properly prepared lands for allocation, let us remember that the surveying of those lands was done in the past. However, I wish that the government would conduct some of these works via Georgetown, because if we continue to utilise the present arrangements the only result would be confusion.

Congratulations to the Minister of Housing and Water and his ministry for the good work that they have done, and we sincerely hope that the process continues with fruitful outcome.

Yours faithfully,
Sherry James
