Letters to the Editor

My long engagement with newspapers

Dear Editor, At age 93 I have been reflecting about how long has been my engagement with ‘Newspapers’ –– Daily Argosy, Daily Chronicle, Guyana Graphic, Evening Post, Booker News, the last of which I was briefly, but excitingly, a part, along with Winifred Gaskin, then Martin Carter.

A “Holi Accord” for Guyana

Dear Editor, As the festival of Holi dawned upon all Guyanese, spreading colours of joy and harmony, it’s pertinent to reflect on its profound message of unity and forgiveness.

Gov’t stations competing unfairly with private broadcasters

Dear Editor, I read the barrage of misrepresentations made recently by Gail Teixeira to the UN Human Rights Committee on corruption in Guyana, specifically broadcasting which is very well known to me being a former broadcaster, and reported in KN of 22nd March 2024, captioned “UN flags PPP dominated GNBA” and “raises concerns of media control”.

Playing host to former world leaders

Dear Editor, Guyana’s profile as a significant player on the international stage is being further enhanced with the visits of two former world leaders, Tony Blair of Great Britain and Bill Clinton of the United States.

Maduro’s end game and elections

Dear Editor, Following the “Barbados Agreement” signed last October by the Venezuelan Opposition and Government representatives to facilitate “free and fair elections” and the US easing   sanctions on oil, gas and gold, I noted that “Maduro has raised the ante on their border controversy (with us) to counter the political challenge he faces next year after the economic and social implosions.”

Cost oil allotments

Dear Editor, Article 11 of 2016 Production Sharing Agreement (PSA) states “cost oil is limited in any month to an amount which equals 75% of the total production from the contract area for such month”.
