Letters to the Editor

GPL is in a muddle

Dear Editor, After performing my morning chores on April 7, that included tending to my kitchen garden (it is flourishing) I placed some coffee to ‘perk’ and realized that nothing was happening. 

What commitments were made by VHPI?

Dear Editor, With reference to the information from the press conference held by Minister Robert Persaud on April 12 about VHPI and reported variously in all three daily newspapers on April 13, perhaps you could jog the memory of Minister Robert Persaud about the wording of the National Forest Policy and the procedures of the Guyana Forestry Commission for handling applications for logging concessions? 

What is so democratic about leaders refusing to go to the members?

Dear Editor, In a letter in SN dated April 13 and captioned, ‘Consensus represents an ideal state,’ Mr Hydar Ally praised the PPP leadership as being very democratic and speaks of persons being able to subordinate their aspirations for the collective good of the organization – mind you not the good of the members, the supporters or the people of Guyana.

How can the Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces express such degrading sentiments about one who chose a military career?

Dear Editor, The County meetings of the PPP which are being held to endorse the selection of Mr Donald Ramotar as the PPP presidential candidate by that party’s Central Committee have become the occasion  for President Bharrat Jagdeo to once again spew venom against Mr David Granger, the elected presidential candidate of the People’s National Congress Reform.

‘Consensus represents an ideal state’

Dear Editor, Your editorial (Sunday, April 10) under the caption ‘Consensus’ demonstrated a clear bias against the PPP and its internal democratic processes with particular reference to the manner in which the party has identified its presidential candidate.

Bartica Football Association is active

Dear Editor, The Bartica Football Association would like to respond to various erroneous statements, that have been printed by sport reporters and in the letter columns of the daily newspapers, accusing the Bartica Football Association of being inactive and not carrying out its mandate as it relates to organizing football competitions at all levels; inefficient financial management; and the non-holding of mandatory meetings.
