Dear Editor,
Judging from the facts and figures contained in your news article, ‘President unveils cost of living ease, (SN, 8.5.08), I reluctantly accept the President has done right by the Guyanese people at a time when food and energy prices around the world are on the rise.
Reluctantly, because I still ask the big picture question: Where is the President’s vision for Guyana as the breadbasket of the Caribbean? Only last week on CNN’s news ticker it was reported that Jamaica, said to be having problems with Guyana’s rice, will be using public lands to plant/grow its own rice. What’s happening to Guyana?
